Fixed that for you. Don't know what a 3vo is.
Later this year..... So whack
aka next year
Tenchars..
they will release ics for sensation XL next, so we are still in queue to get it..
I think its stupid to release it for XL before evo cuz they allready have working basics (sensation) and only need to fix camera.
I find this list acceptable, especially when compared to the other OEMs. Motorola in particular is pathetic.

There is no reason to believe that the two are related. I don't understand why people keep insisting that HTC/Sprint want to hold off on such a release so that they can make more money. The reality is that people are not likely to buy a new phone until their contract allows them to. Even for those of us earliest purchasers of the 3VO, we are not eligible for upgrade for quite some time. Regardless of ICS or no ICS, that eligibility does not change. And whether or not this phone gets ICS, I will be making my next purchase at the end of my contract. The ONLY thing holding up a release is that they don't have a stable release yet OR they are spending extra time (as they did prior to releasing the unlock) to explore more sneaky approaches on a conditional ICS release (I.E.: make it so that it won't function if anything other than an official HTC HBOOT is detected)

I think holding it to make money makes sense actually. Maybe I don't have to evo 3d and I'm faced with buying it cheap with ics and don't care about the nexus. Or, the nexus has ics and the evo doesn't yet so I'm more interested in the nexus.

This means, it'll probably be released for the HTC EVO 3D in March/April, and the Sprint EVO 3D in June. I'll have a new phone before HTC and Sprint get off their ass to make this available.
I didn't even know there is a HTC EVO design 4G.....good to know. Hopefully HTC is true to their word on the "early 2012".
Glad to hear this, although I knew it was coming.

Do you think it was an error that they did not put an (*) by the Evo3D, to indicate that it was a US handset? Just wondering... They could not just update the GSM and leave the CDMA one in the dust, right?

Sprint News
Sprint will begin to rollout Google's latest version of Android, Ice Cream Sandwich, to our customers in early 2012. Ice Cream Sandwich will be available via an over-the-air update to a variety of devices including HTC EVO 3D, HTC EVO Design 4G and other key products in our line-up. Stay tuned for more details and exact timing.

While I'd like to have it then, I highly doubt they will have it out that quickly to us evo3d owners. Took them almost 6mo to push out GB to the evo4g given you prolly could add a month or so of delay associated with the evo3d release then bc it'd be dumb to update the evo4g then release the 3D shortly after...
Just find it odd they say early next yr which would Indicate before April in my book, really b4 march ends. Now begs the question how they couldn't get GB out on evo4g by March this yr either....

That's the same thing the happened last year with the evo 4g(December rumor ) and we got it in June (officially ) so yeah I'm no getting my hopes up I might just trade the 3d for the nexus s lol
I agree that this probably won't happen until June. It's highly unlikely that HTC will stick to the plan of "early 2012".
I don't know about that. On the og evo we got 2.2 two weeks after the Google phone did.

Seems like I had a fully working Sense based GB rom on my Evo 2 months before it officially released. April maybe?
I'm looking forward to the leaks .vs the official build which will be 1/2 way old by the time it really launches.
What will suck is being stuck on the leaked stock ICS/Sense kernel for what will feel like forever.
at least we know were getting it. you wan't htc/sprint to "get off their asses"? how bout you go out and make a near perfectly working product for the masses and figure out how to deliver it effectively then. hmmm?
Well, we can always hope!
It seems that in the past we never really new when until it said "you have an update" on your phone. A lot of rumors and a lot of speculation.
I am hoping that article is correct. I am envisioning a December 19th or 26th update. Merry Xmas from us to you kind of thing.
I think that our chances of getting a update soon are strong. With the last major Android that Sprint released being in September(Epic Touch on Sept. 16th). Other carriers are releasing some big phones. Verizon has Nexus Galaxy and Razor(Mid November), At&T with the Vivid and Skyrocket(Nov 6th), and T-mobile with the Amaze.
Some of these phones might not be "better" but they are all newer.
Evo is Sprint's flagship phone. These are all just my opinions. But, we will know for sure pretty soon. Sprint is going to have to do something for the xmas shoppers. We will see what that is.
I have a reliable inside source at the campus....
What's your opinion guys? Anyone with similar thinking?

Sense 3.6 not 4.0 on the sensation BTW. This confirmed by Jeff Gordon in a recent interview, who is in charge of global communications for HTC...also the guy is around this site too and posts some.
If 3D is pointless to you and you want to knock the device then why get it in the first place.
To the OP that choice is up to u as everyone has their own belief on it. It's like saying if u should get HTC or Samsung phone...endless debate and only one opinion matters and that's ur own.

I wish I woulda went with the sensation. Most of my favorite devs from the DHD/Inspire are on there.
Not to take away from the devs here. Their great. Just not nearly as many.

Just to put this out there, I'm keeping my EVO 3D after I get my next phone in June. I like it, flat out.
I do love the phone itself. Just the amount of devs on the sensation makes me envious. The only thing I don't like bout the evo is spotty wimax.
Sent from my PG86100 using xda premium
That's a question for you to answer yourself. We can't tell you whether or not you like your phone. Me? I like this phone. It doesn't have the same impact as the OG Evo did on me (that being my first ever decent phone) but it's still a pretty solid phone. Been able to run ICS on it since I got it after the New Year. I see very little wrong with this phone.
Devs for the Evo are better. 'nuff said. Yeah. Thats right. I said at it. And I'm a badass too. Come at me.

Everything in this post, except for the timeframe of ICS updates, is so untrue. Just saying.
I was drawn to EVO 3d becouse of its design, like it more than Sensation. Having 1gb of rom, opposite to Sensations 768mb, was a one more reason to have it. Not to mention that it should be HTC's flag ship. When all started heading down hill, seed of doubt was planted. Wanted to hear other people opinions.

Love my evo, just not happy with sprints data speeds in my area, sensation is getting ics sooner which doesnt make since to me, what do i know though. I never really use the 3d feature. Sprint has some catching up to do service wise. If i was in the market now for a new phone and carrier, i would look elsewhere. Im not hating sprint or evo. Dont take it that way. In my area, dataspeeds are horrible, may be ok for you though if your in a major metro area.

The 1gb of RAM compared to the sensations 768Mb did it for me. Usually its not a huge deal...but c'mon we're talking about two sense phones here lol.
I personally do like the 3D feature of the device two, pretty much to the point so far where I might only purchase another phone if it had 3D (which is unlikely since im a minority)
If I were you, I'd get the Sensation because it has a bigger user base = more devs.

This.
Go where there is a more robust developing community. Not bashing anybody who develops on this phone since they made my EVO 3D a beast, but I realized that huge International phones like the Sensation and GSII are miles ahead in getting things done.
Guys, why did some of you buy the Evo 3D first hand at all - if not of for the 3D?
THAT should've been the main reason - best 3D compared to any other phone, and good overall performance for everything else (save the battery ). I was "back then" really drawn to the Sensation, but it had NO 3D. I'd have almost bought the LG, but luckily was saved by HTC
I never expected it to catch on, because the people apparently see 3D only as a gimmick (sic!), and a low priority one as that..."3D? Uh, yeah, cool... but does it play Angry Birds? Show me!"...
So, lessons learned: Next time buy the phone you need... I hope my 3D stays with me a long time.
Cheers

Because of the hardware inside, not the screen, or sense. Well at least for me, it was the best option when going the price to performance route.

I don't know why everybody, not just HTC take so much time in building ICS. But in this time, EVO 3D is in my opinion great with stock rom and it can do everything. So I won't root it and install custom roms because i don't see the reason why should I do that. I know it would be better, faster etc. but for me there is currently no need for that.

Sorry, not interested. 3d seems to be the reason that we can never get the camera working on the various roms. I have used 3d exactly 6 times since last june, all to show how it works.
If you love it, then I am happy for you and hope that they come out with a 3d variant for you, but not at the expense of the regular one.

Yea looking at the video and where they show the EVO 4G LTE 3D (how horrid a name that'd be) prototype they show a bunch of other prototypes that weren't final next to it also. one even looked like the OG EVO.
Plus there is a reason 3D looks a bit better on the Optimus 3d (it does I promise) and that's because of the lower resolution. So I don't know how well a 720p stereoscopic display would come out.
I think ill just wait for the "EVO 4G 3D HD skyrocket SIII Maxx" to come out for my next device
I believe it would be smart for sprint to release 2 variations, a 3D one and the current one. The current 3D users could keep their 3D feature while having an even better phone or for the ppl tht don't want 3D, they could still get this badass phone! Sprint/HTC would be making more money and everyone who wants one of the variations would be happy tht there is the option....
Seems like a WIN WIN situation to me....

If it really was coming, they would absolutely not come out and say that right now. They want this new phone to be the biggest and must hyped thing on the market. There is now way they would compromise the launch with news if an upgraded model on the horizon. Of course they aren't admitting to one being made right now.
Want to make the next evo fail? Add 3D.

HTC just verified in their Facebook page that their One X (and others) will be getting a Sense 5 UI update (excluding some HTC One specific functions). What do you guys and gals think? Will we get it as well seeing how our phone is kind of a sister phone to the One X? Will we already have a new Evo and Sprint won't continue to release updates for our handset? Or will we only get a hacked together version of it from the One X build thanks to our awesome developers.
Does this extend the life of our phone? Will it hold you until the next Evo?
Here's the source by the way:
[Update: Confirmed] HTC May Upgrade One X, One X+, One S, And Butterfly To Sense 5 UI
I was just about to post this, you beat me to it. I had all but assumed we wouldn't get it but now I'm holding out hope we will. I sure hope so!

Nevermind, just realized that it was updated.
Don't they have to continue support for so many months? I would say we probably will but it will happen around Christmas

I think if this is the case, then they're moving forward with their plan of Quality of Quantity.
Well, call me the pessimistic one, but I don't think so. I'm satisfied with a port, honestly.
If the camera is as good as they make it out to be then I will gladly come back. But initial comparisons to the Lumia show its still not that great.. Can't wait for some reviewers to get their hands on it.
Blink feed looks pretty neat and I like the new sense layout.

I bet they will release it after the one launch. Just like they did for the 3d and ics.

Hopefully we do get sense 5...i don't think it's worth the $600-700 to get the HTC one
Are there any Sense roms with Sense 5 yet?
It'll be a gimped version. That's a guarantee. Just like sense 3.6. I'll take it, though.
Meh. There are tons of apps that do the same thing as BlinkFeed but allow you to add your own sources. I do like the fact that Sense 5 makes use of Roboto though.

After reading a few reviews I am starting to become convinced that the EVO LTE is capable of doing many of the things/features that HTC is trying to sell us with the HTC One. The HTC One camera reviews out there have been horrific so far in regards to the hype HTC is trying to sell us on.
I am at the point now that if a Dev in due time can create the same theme and features that the one has then there is really no reason for me to upgrade and bail on my EVO LTE. I also heard the HTC One Screen is not as bright either.
I have absolutely no faith in the possible Sprint/HTC Sense 5 Update.
This further proves my theory that HTC pretty much tries to sell us on that "this is the best phone yada yada" that they will support with updates and innovation galore only to see them pull up the red carpet and good china silverware after a month or so of the release date moving on to the next phone to bait us with leaving us hanging for the promised updates and innovation that never materialize.
^^^ they have to support a phone for a least 18 months so you never know if we'll get the sense 5 update but it is very possible

That's as far as Android version goes. Not Sense UI is concerned. That's why the EVO 3D didn't get Sense 4 when it went to ICS like the 4G LTE had.

Didn't they get sense 3.6? No older phone before the evo lte got sense 4 because of the image chip

I'm guessing so, the evo design got Sense 3.6.
But now that 3.16 kernel source is out I'm willing to bet we get an update to sense 5.

I'm actually guessing that we'll get Sense 4+ (no changes) and Android 4.1.2

Right, but they could've developed Sense 4 for the EVO 3D, and left out the image chip features. If we get Sense 5, it'll be a more watered down version like that. They want to sell these new phones for those features as well.

Sense 3.6 is sense 4 but without the image sense chip software in it. Its not water downed but it just isn't capable it run that software. True we might get a water down sense 5 but not many features will be missing
