Thanks to the unlocking of the HTC Rezound’s bootloader, we have seen so much developer love for this device. It’s funny how just a little bootloader can make a device so desirable. If you have been looking to have Ice Cream Sandwich with HTC’s Sense on your device then be sure to check out these to builds that are said to be almost 100%. As far as we can tell, this is built off of the leaked ICS-Sense ROM that leaked last week.

To check out the downloads and read up on how to flash, just follow these links and learn everything you need to know.

WugFresh’s Galaxy Nexus root tool that we featured a few weeks back is deserving of a second mention, as it includes a load of new features in version 1.22. Not only can you root and unlock or unroot and re-lock, but you can back up apps and data, restore them, run adb commands by pressing a single button, and choose which images to flash (permanently or temporarily too). While we still like to encourage readers to learn how to do all of this manually to get a full understanding of the process, this will most definitely come in handy if you are ever in a pinch.

Our buddy Pete Alfonso has released an Ice Cream Sandwich build for Motorola XOOM owners on Verizon’s network. The WiFi version of the XOOM receives update love straight from Google and Moto, but with this Ice Cream Sandwich update having to go through Verizon, it tends to make the process a bit longer. For all of our friends who are impatient, you can grab the download link just below and enjoy ICS today! 

Doin’ big things. After giving the Incredible 2, Rezound and Thunderbolt access to their bootloader unlocking tool, HTC has gone way back in time, giving the original Incredible the same access. That’s right, a device pre-DROID X and DROID 2 now has an unlockable bootloader.

And again, we turn to you, Motorola.

What sounds like a very early Ice Cream Sandwich build for the HTC Rezound has been leaked this morning. I say “early” because from the what we have read, the build is a mix of HTC Sense 3.5 and some stock ICS icons and images. While we no longer have a Rezound in house to try and flash this, all signs point to it being unusable on a daily basis. This isn’t all that surprising though, since we weren’t actually expecting a release of this to the phone so soon, but at least we can see HTC is puttin’ in work on it. Flash at your own risk, folks.

And is it just me, or is the Rezound becoming more and more attractive by the day? A new $199 price, unlockable bootloader, one of the most beautiful screens we have ever seen on a mobile device, and the best camera of any Verizon phone, are making this phone worth another look.

The Motorola Droid X2 was a tough nut to crack, but it seems that there has finally been a breakthrough as far as custom ROMs go. XDA user dragonzkiller has successfully brought CM7.2 to the handset that gave people headaches over it’s locked bootloader. The ROM is almost fully featured as well:

• Full Theme Support For Every Aspect of Your Phone
• Incognito Browser Mode
• DSP Equalizer
• Lockscreen Customizations
• Lockscreen Gestures
• Fully Customized Pull Down Toggles

As far as installation goes, this one is a little bit tough so I suggest heading over to the XDA thread and following the instructions exactly. This has got to be good news to anyone with the X2 that was frustrated with the lack of development for this device. This brings one of the most stable and functional ROMs out there to your phone. Head over to XDA to get started.

We all knew that Motorola was cooking something up for XOOM users of their Feedback Network but we did not know it was going to be this big. The “project” that Motorola had in mind for the members of their network is an update to Android 4.0.3 Ice Cream Sandwich. The update has already started rolling out to members of the group last night and the community has been all over it. It is good to see a “Google Experience Device” getting the update finally and depending on how well this rollout goes, Moto could be looking to push this out to a wider swath of XOOM users fairly soon.
