According to several sites there have been early complaints of a high-pitched whine during audio playback through the headphones. With the first officially available update, released to testers on December 9, 2011, this issue was mitigated. [3]
Verizon Wireless announced the first firmware upgrade for the Droid Bionic, version 5.5.893, on December 8, 2011. The update was pushed to a limited test group on December 9, 2011, with plans to release it as an over-the-air (OTA) update package at a later date. The patch fixes many of the issues users reported at the Bionic's launch, with improvements including a smoother hand-off between 4G (LTE) and 3G (eHRPD/CDMA) data networks and software attenuation to eliminate the high-pitched transistor bleed ("hum") previously noticed in sound from the 3.5mm jack. [4]
On December 19, some owners began receiving yet another OTA update to version 5.9.901. It was later provided as a download for manual installation.[5] Later on, the changelog, or list of improvements was released. [6]
A Motorola employer later confirmed the update was released to some by accident, and will be later released to all other DROID Bionic users soon. [7]
The smartphone includes 4G LTE, Wi-Fi, HDMI output, 1 GHz OMAP dual core processor, a 4.3" qHD display, 3G/4G wireless hotspot capability, GPS, an 8 MP low-light–capable camera with 1080p HD video capture and a front-facing camera capable of Video Chat. In the United States, the handset will be distributed exclusively by Verizon Wireless.[8]

Similarly to the Motorola Atrix 4G, it has the integrated Ubuntu-based 'Webtop' application from Motorola. The Webtop application is launched when the phone is connnected to the external display through Laptop dock or HD multimedia dock. In Webtop mode, offering similar user interface of typical Ubuntu desktop, the phone can run several applications on external display such as Firefox web browser, SNS clients and 'mobile view' application enabling total access of Atrix and It's screen. In September 2009, Motorola released the source code of Webtop application at SourceForge.[9]
