Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich for the Droid Bionic ─ ICS4Bionic

Well, here it is ─ Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich for the Motorola Droid Bionic.

Developer dhacker29 from rootzwiki has released the ICS4BIONIC ALPHA3 preview build of ICS for the Bionic today. It is compiled from the latest Cyanogenmod 9 or CM9 and AOSP source, and is a taste of what’s to come in the near future to the Bionic.

Again, like all of the ICS builds in circulation for other devices, this is still an Alpha build, meaning its still not quite there yet in terms of being a daily driver. But those of you who have been wringing your hands in anticipation, can go ahead and try it out.

Details from the rootzwiki page.

What works:

Again, this is an Alpha preview build, and has only been booted in Safestrap for the Bionic. Safestrap is an alternative recovery tool.
