Official ICS RUU 'early access preview' just dropped - HTC EVO 3D

Hey guys,
Decided to share this since I did not see it on the EVO 3D subforums. Since the Sensation RUU just dropped, I wonder how long before a DEV here ports this to the EVO.
Android Central - Official Android 4.0 ‘early access preview’ for HTC Sensation and Sensation XE now available

Considering that the Virtuous ROM team just released a Sense 4.0 built ROM today which I have just installed on my EVO 3D and am testing, I suspect not very long may be the answer to your question.

Great news, Joelz will have a rom by Friday night if he is aware of it.

froyo2.2 with htc sence is possible?

i have waiting for this froyo2.2 with htc sense is any possible to cook with sense plz advice me thanks.
hi there
Having hero with 2.2 sense is not as simple as You may think
Until few days ago most of the people were waiting for HTC Legend to get official 2.2. That way the Devs could probably port it to hero.
But few days ago we learned that some crazy (in a good way) people ported HTC wildfire 2.2 to our phones. Despite different res, it looks promissing
So for now only 2.2 with sense for hero is alpha rom (with some of the features such as WIFI/camera not working).
Be patient.
Oh, and Devs can't port 2.2 sense from let's say Desire due to the huge hardware differences (probably processor architecture).
Hope this helps.

ICS vs sense?

Will ICS change everything on 3VO's, Like sense and 3D effects?
3VO
HTC will likely build Sense on top of ICS. We may have 3D on an unofficial build, likely CM9, but definitely will once HTC releases an official ICS update.

Sense will cover it. I want to get a ROM like CM9 (whatever number) because I want the vanilla Android experience. I love sense, but when CM9 comes out in the next 2-4 months I'll be happy to flash it.
Sent from my 3vo
In 2-4 months? I thought it would've been ready by January. CM9 is correct since CM8 was going to be honeycomb but honeycomb is very close sourced according to the cyanogen team. I really want the swipe notification add on because that is genius. I would do CM7 alpha but it doesn't have 4g which is everywhere in Miami.
I've never used cm, I have no 4G in my area so that don't matter, but i would love to see 3D in cm. I hope cm9 has 3D abilities. But either way I'm exited for it and will be flashing it for something new. I'm saving my cm virginity for cm9
Support TrevE! Fah Q CIQ!!

Cm9 will have it. Its going to have a lot of GB implements but its going to be based off the ICS sdk

ICS with Sense port?

sorry if this has been asked already but I have a Sensation and there is a leaked test build from HTC with Sense 3.5 over ICS 4.0.1 Is it possible to port this over? Even if it means loss of scribe tech for the time being.

Tried contacting both HTC and ATT for this detail.
HTC no comment. ATT no idea.
I guess HTC is concentrating on getting ICS to its phones 1st. Their support system is as usual quite slow-e.g. the Flyer got Honeycomb very recently when ICS has already been released.
So I guess it will be just a wait for us to know or listen for the good news about our jetstream getting ICS.
From what I've read, HTC is just starting to make statements on what devices will get ICS update and when. Only seen announcements about smartphones.
"HTC wrote a note on its official Facebook page to announce that Ice Cream Sandwich would be available for the HTC Sensation, HTC Sensation 4G and HTC Sensation XE in March 2012, with the Sensation XL getting its ICS "soon there after."
A gaggle of other HTC smartphones were name-checked by HTC in the post as well: Android 4.0 for [Deep breath] the HTC Rezound, HTC Vivid, HTC Amaze 4G, HTC EVO 3D, HTC EVO Design 4G, HTC Incredible S, HTC Desire S and HTC Desire HD "will be coming later this year."
HTC had previously said (in November 2011) that the HTC EVO 3D, HTC EVO Design 4G* and HTC Amaze 4G would be available in early 2012. From HTC's updated schedule, it appears the company will miss that deadline."
Taken from article.

So it looks like it might be a while for HTC to even consider Jetstream ICS update. I would be bold to say between end of Q2 and beginning of Q3.
i wouldnt count on HTC with it...
rumor has it that google will anounce android 5.0 around june, by the time HTC will bring us ICS (if at all), it would be considered old.
task650 said he's trying to implement ICS on the jetstream but he's not active on this forum for a while now...
I dissapointed with this. I have europian version of Sensation and an AT&T Jetstream.
Great android devices but I should buy Samsung Galaxy S2 Skyrocket and Tab 10.1 LTE to get ICS sooner?? Samsung support is more frequent?
I asked HTC support yesterday about this or even an update to 3.2, support person had no idea.
Dissapointed to hear that. i hope there will be an update.
Saw some posts on the Flyer section about ICS update coming for them in 2 months. Their source seems to be a French version of HTC Hub. It may mean good news for us as well. Here is to hoping that it happens sooner than predicted..

I am no dev, so I do not know, but -say- for windows it is possible to install the same OS on all sorts of systems with different hardware config's. How different is uncustomized Android? I mean if a plain release of ICS for tablets were to find its way to users, would it be possible to flash it to different tablets or would it have to be custom tailoured to each tablet before it can be flashed?
in my opinion, JetStream will have ICS for sure, but I guess It could be Q4 or later
google the info about the update of HTC Flyer, those people waited and waited for more than half year to get their honeycomb update
and I highly doubt CM9 on JetStream since We have not get S-OFF yet, and the Pen wont work on CM9
i think ICS comes with a native pen abilities, so technically if CM9 would find its way to the jetstream it might work.

Having an official ICS or custom-spinoff ROM would be awesome enough to satisfy me at this point for some time. I agree in believing it will eventually come out, even though HTC isn't announcing it with all the other ICS updates. Also, glad there's mention of CM9 here, as I always end up settling on CM once they weed out all the bugs. It's nice not having your Google written OS passed through profit-fueled manufacturer's and carrier's hands only to strip out and tweak lots of it later. It's like every tweak CM does is in the name of being cool, and I love it.
Though, that being said, the pen feature is legit. It's a feature to tablets that I see only becoming more relevant in the future. I would not be surprised if pen support came to CM9 or some future CM variant eventually. They brought the status-bar brightness control slider feature to CM7 when I had to go for so long without it on nightlies for my Samsung Captivate. I know the comparison is possibly thin on implementation... but pens for tablets? It's a no-brainer to at least attempt very strongly to get working. I believe someone on their team will attempt it and probably succeed.
Now about a CM9-HTC Jetstream specific variant? That's another story entirely. My guess is yes on that as well, esp once the value plummets and everyone can get them cheap... just will have to be super patient.
i was just checking out CM and AOKP sites..it appears the projects have made it to alot of devices so far..the fact that the system is for both phones and tablets is an advantage.
how can we get them to work on the JS?

As far as my understanding goes: CM has a team dedicated to it's base AOSP build (device unspecific). It's then either some of the same people or (more likely) entirely new people/teams to work on supporting a specific device. For instance, CM7 for SGS-Captivate was developed by entirely different people than CM7 for DroidX.
That said, we'll probably need some dedicated dev(s) to form a team and start building off the open-source base to get KANG's out to the public. Or the more official route: communicate with CM and set up a repository "Jetstream" branch on their system to commit-to and automatically build nightlies off of for the public. I've seen the process twice now start out as very unstable KANG's, turn to official nightlies, then RC's and Stable builds, then roll-off back into KANG's as people continue to tweak, mod, and merge with the AOSP base as it's updated.
I got an email reply from HTC and they said the last update was released 02/29/2012. They claim that they work hard to get their updates ready and offer them to AT&T and it OS AT&T that decides if or not to accept them. AT&T would obviously not bother replying to me as I am not on their network. Perhaps someone still with AT&T could try.

Did anyone try contacting AT&T regarding any news on updates?

I hope AT&T or HTC roll out a new update for this tablet cous 3.1 not support natively Qualcomm dual core processors and chipset. I got recently the new Vodafone Smart Tab 7 (ZTE) with honeycomb 3.2 and this tablet is the same hardware like HTC sensation. 1.2ghz dualcore, 1GB ram, 16 or 32GB storage. Work perfectly and run extremely fast with 3.2
I hope in the near future, there will be 3.2 or 4.0 ICS update will available for the Jetstream as well for my ZTE tablet. I love my Jetstream but my ZTE runs perfectly too.
I'm waiting for Jetstream OS update and S-OFF. With this two option, this HTC tablet will be an awesome device with powerhouse hardware.

I guess we all are.
Globatron asked for some screenshots of the back of the Jetstream in the sim card and micro SD card area in the thread of S-OFF asked by me. I have provided the same but have not heard any update or anything. He has been bringing s-off to some htc phones like sensation including xe and others.

So nothing will happen about s-off or os system update??
Jeatstream dead??
What about users whos bought this tablet?
For the moment it looks like it. I log in everyday to see if anything is happening but in vain. Neither a developer nor got any basic knowledge bout developing so can't really do much myself either. I guess we will just have to wait and watch where we land up.

why

are all the sense 4.0 roms still based off the ville still? i figured with the evo lte out this long we would be getting some real roms that aren't ported over. maybe i am ignorant and don't know what i am talking about but just wandering

Ville is the codename (like "shooter" for the CDMA Evo 3D) for an HTC One S model which has the same screen resolution as the Evo 3D and its 1.11.401.110 build is based on Sense 4. That may be the primary reason why the ROM from that device was used to port the 4.x Sense versions over to the Evo 3D. The Evo 4G LTE has a larger and higher resolution display, making a Sense port from that device more difficult.
Unfortunately, the ville doesn't have a 3D camera or WiMax 4G, which is why those features are missing from the Sense 4 ports for the Evo 3D. There also seems to be a change in Wi-Fi that has so far prevented the Wi-Fi Tether app from working consistently, although it's been reported that the SVTP version does work with those ROM's.
