Hope so!
As long as there xda there will be jellybean. Look how long it took to get ics. I had ics on my htc sensation a entire year before htc released it.
So if you wait for official release you would be wasting your time if you have the evo. If you want fast updates without flashing roms stick with nexus devices

No doubt about it the phone is barely a month old and since 4.1 is looking more like an incremental upgrade I have a feeling it will spread much faster than ics did atleast to ics devices since it doesn't seem like HTC and other manufacturers will need to redo their skins. Just wonder what jellybean will bring to the table its still pretty much a mystery other than the nexus tablet

Wow, I should hope so. I don't think it's if, but when. I'm sure it will drag out longer than any of us think it should.
Yes, but "how long" is the challenge.
It'd be nice if it were independent of carriers/OEMs given its #.1 so its not a major revision.

Yes, but we won't get the new sense 4.6 upgrade, only 4.5 because of some random reason given by HTC to encourage us to purchase a new phone that doesn't have the same inadequacy of hardware
Yes but we probably will miss some features like the evo 4g missed on froyo coming from eclair , but will be ok

There is no doubt that EVO LTE will get Jelly Bean. However, I don't think it'll be til late next spring/early next summer.
Reasoning:
The original EVO 4G was released summer of 2010. It was given Gingerbread AFTER the release of the EVO 3D. I'm intentionally ignoring the FroYo update because it was the first EVO and HTC wanted to keep it current (aka keep it selling) to make the EVO name famous. Clever marketing.
The EVO 3D was released in summer of 2011. Now that the EVO LTE has been released, there's some ICS OTA stuff happening in Europe (meaning it's only a matter of time before the 3vo gets it's ICS).
Thus, the EVO LTE was released summer of 2012. Based on the pattern, the LTE will most likely get official JB after next year's EVO release (if there is one).
Just my thoughts

Doubt it cause Samsung is being aggressive about their push so they probably be agresive on updates too, international GS2 got ICS back in March so that was probably one of the earliest updates with only one device they could make it happen faster, so htc need to make sure they keep it up

The og evo was released with 2.1. Was the first non nexus phone to get 2.2 about a month later. Then got 2.3 a month before the 3d was released (ive owned all the evos since their release) 2.3 to 4.0 was a huge update, 4.0 to 4.1 is not. Im sure we will see 4.1 this year

Not sure. Since it's an incremental update, it could be like Honeycomb (mostly meant for tablets).

We got leaks before the EVO 3D release, but we didn't get official until after. I remember, I was there lol.
I'm just going by the update schedule already in place, I could be wrong it seems more likely that Sprint wants to get the next big EVO out for people to buy rather than support the one that's out now.
I've complained to Sprint on the delay of ICS for the EVO 3D. They have told me that they don't have the software and are unable to send it. Also they have told me that they have no control when HTC will send the upgrade to them.
Now, this makes no sense to me. I would think that Sprint has something to do with this and it's not just a HTC issue. In fact, HTC told me that it's a joint effort between them and Sprint, which makes sense to me.
This BS with the update is really making me consider getting a Galaxy Nexus for my next phone. But, I have concerns about Sprint just refusing to let the update happen, which is what I think is going on with the EVO 3D ICS update.
So, to my question, how do system updates work?
Sent from my HTC EVO 3D using Tapatalk 2
I truly don't believe its a sprint issue at this point. HTC has been less than forthcoming about updates for the 3d (or any HTC phone, for that matter).
I'm sure sprint has to QC check and approve/push the update (and probably has final say as to whether or not the update gets pushed at all) but I'm fairly certain the ball is in HTCs court right now.
Then again, this is 100% opinion and speculation on my end - I'm probably completely off base.

Oh yeah, that. That's been known for a while.
Regardless, that still gives HTC 25 more days before they have to provide sprint with software to test (assuming that is, in fact, the way it works - I still don't know) just to be compliant with their own schedule. On top of that, sprint will have to test and approve the update before pushing it out.
IMO, I think we'd see leaked RUUs for sprint if they actually had a functional ROM in testing right now. But at the same time, we've got the leaked ROM from virgin mobile, so who knows?
Either way, I'm glad I jumped ship and left sprint
Sent from my HTC One X
Ok, so I just revisited the 3d forums for the first time since jumping ship.
I revise my opinion. Based on the fact that pretty much every other carrier seems to be receiving OTA updates (based on the massive number of threads in the general forum), I'm gong to go ahead and assume that sprint has, in fact, dropped the ball on this one.
Sent from my HTC One X
I would assume that once HTC finally developes the updates, Sprint test it and adds/deletes anything they want to before it is released to the end user.
Ok, yes, we agree that Sprint sucks on getting the upgrade out.
However, my question still stands. How Do Updates Work? I'm presuming that Google sends the upgrade to HTC, they make it work on their OS. Then they send it to Sprint, which makes their changes to work on their network and then they deliver the update.
Anyone got a clue?

I understand that, but we don't even have ICS source for cdma, and we are supposed to get JB? thats more along the lines of what I meant. Either way, I will probably be running a copy of it before sprint even thinks about supporting it. Love the dev's around here!
Moral of the story ...don't post without proof
I don't think HTC will upgrade anything earlier than the one range because essentially they will have to develop two types of ROMs ...for the one series with imagesense and the rest of the range without image sense capabilities.
But you never know,shout enough and maybe they'll listen

I truly think HTC isn't going to put the time and effort into doing the Jelly Bean update for it. And after this joke with the ICS update, do you really think Sprint is going to push it?

I've noticed that the LTE hasn't been getting too much love compare to what the og evo got when it first came out, but it is still a relatively new phone and the first source dropped not too long ago. But personally, there isn't much I don't have with the rooted stock rom right now. I have EOS JB on my Xoom and other than Google Now, not really missing much based on my usage style.
"This device will be downgraded to Froyo due to Apple patents"
Maybe because HTC has more One X/XL/S/V models sold than Evo 4g lte. Also maybe Sprint never agreed to release JB on the evo 4g lte? I dunno...

the reason why it hasn't been announced is that sprint has partner shop with htc as far as updates goes same reason why the sgsIII received like three updates before we got our first one even tho the evo was put before
Honestly, I don't care. I have a Nexus 7 and it isn't super buttery smooth compared to ICS like the the tech sites are making it out to be. It feels the same to me. Though I feel ICS is as smooth as it gets most of the time anyway except for immediately after unlocking the phone when it has been asleep for awhile. It would be nice to be on the current OS but I don't feel like ICS is a major step back. The notifications of Android 4.1 are nice though.
If Sprint holds true to its past with upgrades we will see it shortly after the next EVO device is launched.
You guys honestly complain so much. What's wrong with the way the phone performs now? Chill out and enough questions about jelly bean. It will come when it comes. This phone is a flagship HTC one X phone for sprint...do you honestly believe we won't get the next one or two (possibly 3) iterations of android?

... it took less than 2 months for the original EVO 4G to updated to Froyo... I'd say that is a better example of Sprint's record with updating a new device, than comparing it to updating devices that are fairly old (the EVO 4G was 6 months old when Gingerbread came out, and was updated about 6 months after that).
They said the One XL will get it, so we can count on the devs to then get it to us from there. No worries.
Devs > Sprint.

I'd rather be stuck on ICS forever than have my favorite apps not work properly with JB.
Yes i know its "almost the same" but almost doesn't mean it is. I tried apex on a JB build and it wouldn't even start, so either that build is missing something or its not as almost as everyone makes it out to be.

LTE owners should view this as if they were installing a cumulative Windows Update patch, like SP1, which will fix things... And break things... Such as backwards compatibility with apps.
However, with that being said, I'll be flashing Jelly Bean the same second it is released. CM10 AOSP, where are you?

It doesn't have to explicitly say it, since EVO LTE is a carrier specific phone, spun-off from HTC ONE X. Also, EVO LTE got the Jelly bean here first IIRC before HTC ONE X did here in the states. So if history is any indication, I think it does apply to EVO LTE.
