No kernel to support the hardware, no drivers to support the hardware, no recovery to work in. Will never happen. We will never have it for the same reason we will never see ios on an android phone. Its proprietary and closed down. Also I think its illegal.
And na7, that's a little unfair don't you think? WP8 is probably the most well built mobile OS out there, not to mention revolutionary in many ways. Not as closed down as IOS, not as fragmented and choppy as android, runs better of less specs, one kernel spanning across mobile and desktop for seamless compatibility, can do out of the box what android needs 6 or 7 apps to do, backed by arguably the most solid mobile hardware manufacturer in the world, I could go on. Don't know about you but one of Nokias WP8 devices will be my next phone hands down. Id love to see it on the photon but it wont happen, ever.

When Verizon confirms it on twitter, I'll believe it
Week of 7/24, way to pick a tuesday. HTC has said we will get it by the end of july as a soak test and then roll the rest out on august 3rdish, this upcoming friday. We will most likely see it this upcoming week or the week after barring any trouble verizon has.
EDIT: alos just saw android police post the same thing... http://www.androidpolice.com/2012/0...etting-its-ics-upgrade-as-early-as-july-29th/

I dont actually have the phone its my wifes and i should have known something was up i tried to check for updates on it lastnight and it froze on the check for update screen never found updates after i had forgotten about it for a good 30mins to an hour it was still checking never found anything and it let me back out has that ever happened to anybody ?
I called VZW, they are retarded and have no idea about anything.
Reminds of the sign in the bar saying" Free Beer Tomorrow!"
S-Off Rocks! Who knows what Rom I'm on today!
Does anyone actually give a **** anymore?
our ICS roms are great... the RIL development and being able to use AOSP/AOKP/CM9-10 are the only things i give ****s about.

Agreed. This just looks like the same chart that was "leaked" earlier this week, except for the release dates it just said "TBD". Someone probably shopped it then sent it to Android websites.

Yes, once the OTA drops, kernel source isn't too far behind, and that's always good for development.

Yeah, we do. The ota means kernel source ..kernel source means custom kernels. Custom kernels mean better ROMs.

I wish the mods would just make a rule about ICS update thread not being allowed any more.
Also ASOP is the future of our rezound and maybe Jellybean without the sense crap.
To me its funny about the constant complaint about sense but those who complain bought this phone. Hmmmm

Playstation Mobile

So, Playstation Mobile was released today. I installed the .apk on my S3 and can confirm we aren't supported.
Think anyone will release a crack?
I really don't know, it depends how the app finds out what model you are on, not compatible with hardware, possibly.
If I was Sony though I would check the model of the phone and check servers then probably not, unless people want to spoof their model number.

Hmm okay. I guess we'll be getting support at some point. There's not too many games out of it at the moment anyway.

You could try this: http://www.androidpolice.com/2012/1...tion-mobile-for-android-on-any-rooted-device/
I don't know if that method works on the GS3, however. After being the unlucky owner of a 3G Vita (which I gave to my brother, who doesn't use it anymore after he got a GS2), there's no way I'm letting any **** like that onto my phone. Sony can go to hell.

An android smartphone is no replacement for a dedicated handheld games console. Actually compared to phones you get way more for your money.

I would say the other way, "It's a shame that Samsung doesn't support PlayStation mobile on such a powerful device."
I installed it with the method on Android Police, but "files over 20MB can only be downloaded via WiFi" ok uninstall.
Also @onesolo it's not Samsung, it's Sony, they make the app, they have to make it compatible, unless you want Samsung to replace all hardware in the S3 with the hardware of supported devices, then it might work.

Porting Windows Phone 8?

As you all might know Windows Phone 8 will support dual-cores and micro-sd cards, so my question would be, if it could be ported to our device.
Keep in mind I'm not a developer
Do you want the long answer or the short answer?

Windows Phone 7 hasn't been ported to the SII for a reason, and the same applies to this.

I think that Windows Phone 7 can not be ported to this device because it does not have dual-core and micro-SD card support
Nobody is going to port either to the SGS2. Devs who are still developing for it have much better things to do with their (almost always) limited time.
I dont think you should expect a port unless Microsoft releases the source code, which it wont.

[Q] One click Root?

I found this website http://www.oneclickroot.com/phone/htc-droid-dna/ I was wondering if it is a scam. Has anyone seen this?
I wonder if this works with the new OTA update. It would be sweet if it did.
Sent from my HTC6435LVW using Tapatalk 2
Anyone willing to try this? I'm curious as to how it works considering the only methods out there right now require getting superCID then using HTV Dev to get the unlock code and the former no longer works...
Also:
The Droid DNA is also plagued by a battery efficiency problem.

To me, you would think this, being a pretty big development, would break here on XDA.
While I am hoping its true, as I am holding off until something like this is released, it just seems a little to good to be true.
But go for it if you want!
Just follow a guide on here, it's pretty much dead simple to unlock your bootloader through HTC. I highly doubt this is legit but in the time it took you to make this post and wring your hands about it you could have unlocked the bootloader, rooted and installed a custom rom.
netstal trembley
im not saying its not legit but, like said a couple of posts above, if it was legit, i'd think it would be xda by now
My theory - If no one has commented anything at all and there's no one to vouch for it, don't become the martyr or the first victim.
I'm happy about the feed back from you guys. This is the reason I posted it here, because I knew someone would have a good insight about this topic.
I'm staying away
Thanks

Click the download button and it says right there that it won't work. Only supports android up 4.0.3, and no HTC devices although they hope to support them in the future. It's virus free according the VirusTotal, but I still wouldn't use it on a supported phone without confirmation from someone else that it won't ruin it.
Hi, I'm one of the people behind the development of One Click Root. I can assure you our software does not contain viruses or any other malicious code.
The poster above me is correct. We currently don't have support for HTC devices as we're still working on a few of the finer details of automating HTCDev.com bootloader unlocking. We do hope to add support for HTC devices in the near future, along with a number of the most popular new devices on the latest ICS and Jelly Bean OS versions.

If we see it, I think it'll be a positive sign that the carriers listen to the voices of users wanting (demanding) updates and similar featuresets to other models of the same handset (not stripped down) but I'd be really surprised if we ever see another official update out of AT&T for the Note.
We're under contract for two years, IMO we should get good support and reasonable updates for those two years.
I still think if carriers didn't screw with the updates so much, they could get them out faster and cheaper, but I doubt that'll happen

true but not exactly what I meant. What I mean is say Samung goes to release say the Note 3, they write an ASOP rom, and then another that has all of the touchwiz, multiple windows and other cool samsung apps. When the phone hits the carrier, it will inevitably be laced with AT&T bloatware, but we'd still have the original ASOP from sammy to choose from. Now I know in this model there's no way a company like Samsung could maintain 2 ROMs for every phone, but I think many of us would prefer to go without touchwiz for a clean experience and true customizability that Android was meant to be.
Really though, if Google went to more of a modular design instead of encoding the hardware drivers within a kernel that would be the end all of that. Yes I do understand that kernal compilation with the drivers provides a speedier system, but heck our phones are packing a dual core and it's just linux and linux is quick by nature.
Just my thoughts.
