Interesting but why does it say Flyer HC? We haven't seen that upgrade yet. At this point though it totally makes sense to skip it and go straight to ICS, although I never believed they would do that.

I've reread this several times, and I really don't understand your point here.
HC update to be released some time in December seems pretty clear to me ie. not yet released.
ICS may be officially released, but adapting it for the device is going to take time. They can't just shoehorn it into the Flyer without checking to see that it's working properly or there'll be a ****storm of complaints. Just be happy we're finally getting HC officially.
first of all, I can't understand a single word from that post, then, did it say anything about view 4g? Honeycomb update as well?

Yeah, ICS if you are willing to wait another 6 months for HTC to build and test that, which most people are't even willing to wait another week.

No, they don't have the view in Turkey.
It's a word for word translation so doesn't read well.
In somewhat proper English it would say something like this:
HTC Incredible S: update planned for release by 10 December. Contents: Sense 3.0, Android 2.3.5
HTC Wildfire S: update planned for release by 10 December. Contents: Android 2.3.5, lock screen update.
HTC Flyer 3G and Wi-Fi: Honeycomb update release planned for December.
HTC Salsa: update planned for system, Twitter update and Wi-Fi improvements
HTC ChaCha: update planned for system

I remember there was a post some time ago that said there is a View 4G HC manual on the sprint website.
So perhaps the 4G is update is nearby as well?

It is, it's in testing inside sprint.
So looks like we need a Turkey GB RUU then we can keep clicking check for system update for HC come out
and people, check out the XDA-Wiki, there is Sprint View 4G HC Manual, help you how to use HC on View LOL
We already have a leaked release WWE for HC on the flyer. That is what my thread in DEV is based on. So it shouldn't be long before it rolls out.
I'm getting the Flyer for Christmas, does this mean that I can skip out on custom HC ROMS and just go straight to the official update? Dang, if the Flyer gets HC officially, I might not even need to bother with rooting or anything... except it will still have Sense UI, more likely than not...
You probably could, but I would strongly advise doing the S-OFF procedure first.

When can I expect 2.0 to come out for my HTC Hero? Any ideas? I'm new to this kinda market. Is it something I'd check for an update on my phone? Thanks guys
Noone can really say, all we know is HTC are officially (?) working on it.
They would most likely link to it on the HTC website, but it would be spammed all over this board within minutes too
They have Twittered that they are working on it ... but that was at least a month ago now.
Just a waiting game

WE DON'T KNOW!!!
Will this 2.0 upgrade include us with the Eris version of the Hero?
http://www.areamobile.de/news/13536-htc-hero-update-direkt-fuer-android-2-1
It seems that HTC finished the porting of the Sense UI on Android 2.0 but they will bring out Android 2.1 on the HTC wich is a version of 2.0 with some bug finxes that were found in the 2.0 Android version.
It should comes out soon, because the porting of the Sense UI was the biggest problem but thats done so far.
Now that I have my view rooted I was hoping honeycomb could be a potential custom rom for it..has anyone any info on this
Well, porting is not that easy. The best place to start would be the Nook Color's Honeycomb port, the screens of the devices are same. Unfortunately, the Flyer is a brickable device, so you can't play around with it being careless. The Nook can boot an sd card, so the Nook is un-brickable. So I would wait. Wait for HTC to update it, Honeycomb is laggy anyways.
So if the flyer is brickable so is the view?....im just looking for an update for the view's current rom maybe a better bluetooth more compatable apps...
Yeah, they are brickable. I'm not a experienced dev like nickberli and i00, and have never cooked a ROM. So I'm afraid to try porting.
Well i hope someone tries ...waiting for sprint to do it would take ages
The code to Honeycomb is not open source, it will be very hard for someone to port it to the Flyer. Since the code to Honeycomb has not been released, it is not like other android releases where people can compile it for devices which the manufacturer has not bothered to make a release for. You will probably never see Honeycomb on the Flyer, IceCream is the Google intended release for devices like the Flyer.

icecream? we will never see an official version of icecream on the flyer. We'd be lucky if HTC gives us the upgrade to gingerbread 3.0. They've already got out what, 3.2 on the xoom?
Everyone needs to find there share, HTC has to modify it for our device, then they flip it over to sprint and then they modify it add their tweaks in, then they do a testing phase, etc.
I'm starting to assume that HTC and/or sprint is just about to say screw it and not upgrade out device.

correct honeycomb is 3.x.x and gingerbread is 2.x.x
HTC flyer SDK supported both honeycomb and gingerbread. So...
Any idea on how to setup the HTC Flyer SDK on Mac? When I load up device "HTC Flyer" with HTC tab extension as the target, it boots into AOSP Froyo.
Which SDK? Link? Are you referring to the OpenSense SDK? I don't believe that is Flyer specific, so I would not base any conclusions on that.
Couldn't we just port the Puccini version of honeycomb? I realize its difficult to do bc the view is brickable. Just putting it out there.

The Puccini is 10" or something with a 1200 x 800 res if I recall. It would take a lot of resizing. Better wait for HTC to do it.
That's not an answer. Who here with some dev knowledge has some insight on this?

I've got a bad feeling we might never see honeycomb...its been months now and they've been silent about honeycomb...i really think (and hope not) that they've just given up on honeycomb and dedicated all there time to the puccino.
Has there been any leaked files of the puccino yet were we could start porting?
I think Honeycomb is to laggy and not worth putting on this device. Let's wait for ICS...
I'm pretty sure that we get a puccini port running on the flyer
Is there already a leaked version?
Is the Honeycomb 3.2 update available to the HTC Flyer in INDIA ???

We don't know when it will come to India. As for for further upgrades to flyer, I firmly believe we will not see ice cream sandwich from HTC for flyer. So I took the plunge. Though I was not too much in mood of going this way, but I wanted to have honeycomb on my flyer, and just could not resist.
I have switched off auto update reminder on my tablet for the time being.

Sad sad really sad
Hello I have HTC flyer and I flashed it with flyhigh ROM v1.2 can I flash it with other ROM to upgrade it to honeycomb ? And second thing wot all more hacks r included in flyhigh ROM.
In case you guys are sick of waiting for it, I'll make this easy for you.
This is how to s-off and upgrade.
Guide by globatron: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1358758
I suggest this rom by leedroid after that : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1406851
PS: You take full responsibility shall you follow those guides. Whatever you do, me or the devs bear no responsibility. Also, this will void your warranty.
PS2: And to answer the reply about it being worth it to upgrade to honeycomb, that depends. I find honeycomb generaly more responsive on flyer. It also has that "tablet feel" to it. Also, pen pressure support = win.
PS3: Oh and, shall you follow any of those guides, please, READ THE ENTIRETY OF THEM.

I'm glad they didn't leave you guys out in the cold on this one. Although many ppl would rather use GB, I find the stylus infinitely better with HC. Hopefully we will ALL see an ICS release on day , I am happy with my HC View in the mean time.
Congratulations to all of you! I can feel you! I waited for two long months before I decided to go the root way and I am a happy HC user for 4 months now! There are more HC apps optimized for Scribe Pen and you can run lot of other tablet optimized HC only apps as well! So Cheers and have fun!

UPDATED:
HTC unlock supports the View.
I have S-OFF working as an upgrade path
It is possible to rollback from HC to GB, irrespective of S-OFF or not.
There is some more work required on the procedures, but it can all be done.
-----Information below this line is kept for historical reference------
The Honeycomb upgrade for the View is expected to start rolling out.
Before taking this upgrade please read the following in order to be aware of the consequences of taking the upgrade if you want any root options or custom ROMs or custom recovery.
It is expected that the upgrade will contain a new hboot (that has been strongly hinted at by reliable sources but never explicitly confirmed), that being the case you should be aware of the following consequences:
If you take this upgrade there is no HTC unlock for the View yet.
This means no root for now
This means no custom ROMs for now
This means no rollback to gingerbread for now
In other words this is a dead-end for now.
There is no S-OFF tool for the view when running on HC (revolutionary will not work)
This means no root for now
This means no custom ROMs for now
This means no rollback to gingerbread for now
In other words this is a dead-end for now.
There is currently no known working temp root exploit on HC (again this means no rollback)
So with that depressing information out of the way, here is the good news:
HAPPY HOLIDAYS
While some of you will want to stay completely stock and have no need for root or custom roms/recovery and I entirely respect that opinion and option as being valid others may be undecided. If you are undecided I strongly suggest that you either:
Wait until you have decided
Perform the S-OFF upgrade, which is reversible and will allow you to go back to stock if you want to.
Again, to re-iterate if you take the upgrade as is you will be stuck with no options but to stay completely stock.
I hate to ask this, but I want to make sure since I am newb in all areas relating to rooting,flashing etc. You are in fact referring to the View and not the Flyer?
Thanks for the heads up.
I am getting my View in the next week and will not upgrade to HC until there is a way to roll back to GB

Yes, I put an "over the top" highlight of the in the first post to clarify.
Just got the notification on mine too, thanks for the heads up even though I really want to upgrade. I will wait!
Another question from a 1 week old Android Noob. Is this update you are referring to an official one from HTC/Sprint? (my device is out of WiFi range, so I cant tell if there are updates), or is this from devs like yourself (globatron)?
Official release.
I hate HC & planned to decline it anyway, so do you have any idea if it will keep prompting me to update if I hit decline?
I don't know about that way, but you can turn off checking altogether anyway.

yeah, sorry...updating previous post to avoid confusing others.
I don't want to whine and clog up the thread, but some comments are driving me nuts. Plus, this might clear up some confusion. Here's some things I've learned over the last couple weeks, when I've been waiting for the impending Honeycomb update:
1. While the hardware of the HTC Evo View and the HTC Flyer is extremely similar, they are different enough that the Honeycomb upgrade for the View won't work on the Flyer. If you have questions about the Honeycomb Flyer update, you probably should redirect any questions to that thread. Flyer users have already been able to update to Honeycomb for a couple weeks, which has been the cause of much jealousy among us View owners.
2. Globatron - who I will commend for somehow having all this inside information - has clearly marked this as a View thread. To just give you a couple examples, it's titled, "WARNING to View Users" and also contains "View" in giant red letters in the opening few sentences. This information clearly doesn't apply to the Flyer.
Three cheers to Globatron. I'll be taking his advice and waiting until he can post a rootable HC update. I'm thrilled about possibly having universal stylus support, which will make this tablet the best $250 I've ever put down on a piece of technology.
GoodandEvo.net has this warning about updating if rooted.
Update: If you rooted using Revolutionary, hold off on applying this update for now. I'm currently stuck at the white HTC start-up screen, and now have to wait for my battery to die before I can fix this in recovery since there's no way to pull the battery on this tablet.

Well now im wondering if it were to come tomorrow, should i update?
We can have s-off for a fee but i noticed on the sunshine thread people were waiting to use it because they updated. Im not sure its worth the 25 bucks for me but also dont want to update then possibly regret it...
Right now im just searching for more info. Not even sure i need to return to stock to run sunshine but after trying the installer i now know i need to uninstall xposed.

I already own HTC One M7 and I have CM12 on it.
My Desire 610 will be stock and that's that. I don't care about anything, just need that Lollipop update.
Also I think that the release won't be this month. Probably the end of April but it's only my assumption.
Hopefully it's wrong.

Wouldnt surprise me. Originally sources stated the 3rd quarter of 2015 then someone here said march, and when i checked that was also true???
As far as s-off...im on the fence. Having it doesnt mean instant development of custom roms. This phone's coming up on a year and i get the feeling that ship has sailed. Essentially looks like itll be stock anyways. I only get the red message when booting to recovery so $25 isnt justifiable. But im hoping to have a reason to get it soon...
Well they missed the target with lollipop in march and now we're approaching mid April...of course this isn't news to most all of you but when I go to HTC ROM downloads site I see that ruu hasn't changed in a long time. Anyone know how that works? Do they only release certain updates in ruu format?
I'm just wondering if they'll put it on the site in a timely fashion or if I'm better off locking it up again and unrooting to take the ota...
I dont think we will have lollipop on this device, the infos about it are not official.
anyway correct me if im wrong

We would sooner get 4.4.4. Lollipop is just a fantasy on this device unless someone builds it for us.
http://htcsource.com/2015/01/leaked-document-reveals-htcs-lollipop-update-roadmap/
This is Not the particular article I read but if I find it I'll post it. Seems the device is more than capable of running it. I don't understand the business aspect entirely but I think since its still a relatively new phone they'd want to push the latest os.
Edit--most definitely right in assuming we won't be getting it soon. I remember reading awhile back 610 would be getting it in the 3rd quarter (probably early fall?) But then someone posted a "leak" here saying march or April the latest. Of course I was willing to believe. Now I see a schedule that puts us in what looks like the 4th quarter! Who knows...I think we'll get lollipop, I'm just not certain I'll still be using this phone when we do.

I think that leaked schedule online is accurate (which means I may not be using lollipop) I can't justify buying it now but I'm considering an s4 from swappa. Its not a definite but if lollipop doesn't come till around Xmas...that's a long time to wait. By that time other users might be anticipating the next OS!

I agree this device will see Lollipop,This device can handle Lollipop without any problems.It's a new device that came out last year.
It should be out within the end of the month or even next month.

Can you tell us where you heard that? Thread last night said an HTC rep said no lollipop for 610.
A guy on another forum asked them and they said yes
