Are we getting latest and greatest Android OS?

As explained in many posts, the flyer is expected to get an htc release of ICS... but the view has yet to be mentioned and is currently EOL via sprint, so the chances of an htc release is slim.
Sorry but isn't a view is a flyer?

mostly, but the flyer has a gsm radio and the view has a cdma radio. flashing one to the other is only good for bricking.

That's not quite the only difference. They have a different chipset too.
As for ICS, eventually, but seeing as how the view only just got HC 3 months ago I wouldn't count on any official (HTC) builds hitting us until the end of the year IMO. If i'm wrong, i'm wrong.
Holding out for Jelly Bean...............

Expected by whom?
I have heard nothing but rumors. Flyer is not on any list the HTC has published or endorsed.
I wouldn't expect it.
Doubt so. I think HTC have finished announcing their 'waves'

Samsung Galaxy Tab and Galaxy S not getting ICS due to Touchwiz bloat.

LOL
same excuse as HTC for some of their Sense devices.
I heard a rumour that the HTC support people had leaked ics was coming to the flyer in q1... Not saying it's true but it seems a lot sites liked up on it and spread it.

If they ever announce the view/flyer getting ICS, it'll go there.

There you have it.
so the only thing to do :
belive in xda-dev
Wow just reading the blog, so many people are asking about flyer and HTC decided not to include in the ICS roll out.... Fully capable and able device like View/Flyer should be getting it first, I bet they cant integrate the scribe in to it or its taking them a very long time to do it and this is why they are not putting it forward.... This really is a sad day for us HTC flyer/view users
I have faith in God, everyone else must pay up front. LOL
I ve contacted HTC support and confirmed thats there is no scheduled update since now. I think that means we will never see any update for Flyer. HC turned out very buggy I cant even make skype calls, music sounds strage in high volume, flash player plays only via explorer and nowhere else eg fb, and many others. I ve just downgrade to GB and my Flyer is usable again with no bugs till now. ps I ve asked support how to downgrade and they anwered that I just cant. My opinion is that there will be no update even for bugs HTC just dont care for HTC Flyer anymore they consider it as a dropped project.
i want to know if htc desire x will get jelly
Htc desire x specs are capable for jelly bean. But sadly htc says somewhere on the internet (just google it) desire x will not get jelly bean upgrades.
But let's see. Who knows htc will change their plans

This info isn't right. This phone will get jb. No site saying the opposite. Even HTC published that all 2012 phones (excluding one v and desire c) will get jb (so all above 512 mb ram). They started the update based on device relevancy so OX+, OX, OS and desire x is next in the line (I wrote on htc support and they said Q1 2013

i have try to find on google wether desire x will get jellybean or not i just cant find it.
but i do find that des x not gonna get a jelly bean updates from here.
http://news.softpedia.com/news/Android-Jelly-Bean-Update-List-for-HTC-Smartphones-Leaks-313471.shtml
"Although some of these smartphones have already received the promised Jelly Bean update, some of these handsets haven’t been mentioned by HTC yet when referring to its Android 4.1 upgrade plans.
The leaked details come in line with HTC’s latest statement, which mentions that the company will not update to Android 4.1 Jelly Bean smartphones with 512MB or less RAM, including the HTC Desire X and HTC Sensation."
i do hope that articles wrong though and of course that is not 100% correct imo unless htc officials said so.
until then. we'll just have to wait
The article is wrong because before the launch of desire x, the specs are little lower. Guys on the leak sites thought that mid range phone will have 512 ram. But HTC made it slighter higher so the required specs for jb have been met. As you can read in the quoted article is says: all 512 mb ram devices, including one v, desire x and sensation...

I hope you're right, but HTC is known for not so great support in providing official updates for their devices. The only thing that can keep our hope is that DesX is still a relatively new device and HTC provides official support for about 2 years from the release of a device.

I will tell you one thing dude. Tell your friend to buy HTC One S or One VX or anything other than Desire X.
FOR ONE DAMN GOOD REASON, THEY TOOK OUT FULL SENSE FROM DESIRE X. (CAPS MODE COS ME MAD LIKE HULK)
I mean they could have included the full sense (4.1) instead of a crapped down 4.1a. I bought DX to get the goodies of full sense along with ICS. I was really disappointed to see it was lite version. And i am afraid they might strip down 4+ to 4+a...now that would be really a kick in the a$$
Sensation XE, XL all had similar ram of 768mb and had full sense. Desire X is supposed to be greater than them as its the next iteration of htc brand
So tell your friend to buy a phone, if he is buying HTC, a full sense phone like the ones i mentioned above if he wants to remain near the budget of Desire X.
PS: Thankx to chefs like ckpv5 and The Android Manual we are atleast getting a "sense" of full sense, which my pal, is actually ported from One S, One X if i am not wrong.
For example: you can see why lite and full sense is mentioned here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2081430

yeah man. i was disappointed i didnt. i checked the specs and i just thought it had all the stuff. i was so happy to see the little sucker i didnt perform a full check in store.
later i noticed it didnt had some stuffs like widgets, themes, scenes and all that load i was hoping for. never will this happen to me.
so if i get a new htc it would go through full inspection first on the youtube (lots of unboxing videos) and in store also.
thankx for the arrow in the knee comment. hehehehe
I'm glad it's not full sense because I don't use sense at all (launcher, lock etc). That's the reason I bought it

As said before, i have no mails or screenshots. The discussion was personal on their f&q online thread. I have no need to lie. Even if they lied to me, I think that update will be soon because otherwise the htc will go against its own rules and policy. (2012 phones with more than 512 ram - all checked by desire x)

sad news guys htc desire x will note get jelly bean
The leaked details come in line with HTC’s latest statement, which mentions that the company will not update to Android 4.1 Jelly Bean smartphones with 512MB or less RAM, including the HTC Desire X
Obviously, this device is missing from the leaked list, but that was to be expected. Those who still own this Android phone might want to upgrade to a newer device or search for other unofficial Jelly Bean builds.
Desire X has 768 Mb of RAM.

Just look at "What devices will not get Android 4.1?" and you'll see that Desire X is NOT included in that list (unlike the One V and Desire C) so we don't know when it will be released or if it's not, it's just not confirmed.

At this stage, there is no info or confirmation from HTC whether the Desire X will get it or not.
We can only hope that the correct decision will be made.
To the experts out there.......Has the Desire X enough credentials to upgrade to Jelly bean.
This is the answer and i am sure HTC will be doing tests on this before they commit.

thats from htc live chat.But im shure we will get it...And maybe this will be the last update idk why think that but..

Well. For me it is absolutely not sure HTC will prepare JB update for our DX. "HTC will work on it" means to me that they are not working on it at the moment. Why would they work on it later? They will have enough to do with programming for more popular devices.

HTC might not be as user supportive as they used to be, but dont base ur opinion on the fact about new phones keeping them busy.
The classic desire, released with 1.6 (eclair i think), got official donut 2.1, froyo 2.2 and 2.3(although not OTA). They were 4 major OS releases for the Desire. This is also for their desire range, and hasn't even received a single OS upgrade and If u ask me, i wont lose hope just yet. Anyways, enough talking JB. use whats available for now.

Will we get the stock Android without Sense from the recently announced unlocked HTC One to the DNA? Is it possible?
The version on the Google edition of the One isn't as stock as you would think. There was an article on XDA about how it isn't recieving updates from Google (instead its coming from htc). As well it is much larger than one would think compared to nexus versions of 4.2. I would say stick with CM10.1 to get the best AOSP experience.
Here is a link yo the article

Hope this helps you in understanding why some developers will mist likely never want to port the ROM.
