According to official statements HTC EVO 3D will not receive updates Android 4.1. Although the developer has promised to maintain the structure within a half years, from its current output in the sale. Since this term has not expired (smartphone went on sale in August 2011), and updates are expected. HTC Corporation must then release the update.
By the way out of the new firmware will improve many aspects of the HTC EVO 3D.
All go and push a button, can be obtained.

Well I'm not sure enough what htc guys will tell me, since in my country htc not so popular as samsung device and the support is limited..
Base on football info, evo 3d won't get jb update, and that's make sense instead developing an old devices, they better develop a new devices to boost the market and sale.. IMO..

Another petition, how many petitions are already floating around the evo forums, 4 maybe and has one been successful, no! Save your energy, HTC will not release anymore updates for the evo. It's just doesn't make any business sense, again HTC makes money, which they haven't made for awhile, on selling hardware not software.

The Evo 3D will not ever see a JB update. It is obvious they weren't ever planning on it when they did the GB->ICS update. They went with the bare minimum and kept the deprecated PMEM memory allocation in the kernel as opposed to updating to the newer ION memory allocation like all other devices. This is the sole reason why we won't see an official JB update.

the sooner you guys realize this information the better it will be.. it is why you have to buy new phones.. this a business not unicef.
It would be nice if HTC released an update. Dev. Test. Whatever to let xda and other work on it, but I doubt it will happen.
It would give a bit more faith in HTC that they would support phones for 2 years as Google wanted a year or so ago but I guess probably no one does still. That's why I got a Nexus at the end. No binning off support after a few months of release. Disappointed in the One series lack of or slow support and flurry of devices when they said they were going to retain a smaller group of devices...
Build on the LG seems good to me. Better than Samsung devices. A solid phone. And Google will sort the updates. Its not a HTC Nexus but its good enough. And cheap!
I hope they sort themselves out with the next flagship and keep it for a year and not push out updated model after updated model... Like the One X, One XL, One X+ etc

HTC did the same when promising the HC upgrade. They used a Twitter account to make that statement.
Now, half a year later, and without Honeycomb, the support department states "Yeah, but that was only a Twitter statement, not a real promise..."
Draw your own conclusions.
Yep, really dissapointing. HC was announced to be ready short after the Flyer is available. So far nothing at all. Now ICS is in the pipe...and the story begins again...that's boring and customer unfriendly. Instead of realeasing one device after another would be good to see some customer care from HTC.
It would be very interesting to see if we get any update to whatever at all on the Flyer.

Even though there is no solid proof we'll most likely get it. HTC has always been good with updates and most HTC devices should get ICS. You may say "ohhhhh THEY DID NOT GIVE US HC!!!" However there is obvious proof they were trying and ICS should be easier since it's meant for both Tablets and Phones.

The fact that the Jetstream is not on the list either gives me some hope as well. Surely their first HC tablet is capable of the ICS upgrade, so my feeling is they are not addressing tablets with the phones. Anyway, here's to hoping they both ge teh good news soon...

Also, this should give you a glimpse of the chaos ICS updates will cause.
Announcement recently by Motorola (purchased by Google) VP of Software Development Ruth Hennigar, saying "that it hasn't even gotten the source code of Android Ice Cream Sandwich yet, let alone started to do something with it. It will be up to six months, she said, before ICS becomes widely available on devices".

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 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.

Right, that's kind of how I took it. I usually get these emails for 3 different devices. My 3d, daughters OG and my wife's BB. The only time I recall seeing one stating to check for system update, was when one was available,for my wife's BB. Just got me hopeful was all.
Edit-one other thing just came to mind. I have the feeling it may be important to run ICS with some of the newer firmware updates from 2.17. So perhaps this is another way to prep people (general public) to update, prior to Sprint pushing out ICS in a few months?

the mid jan update included the new adreno drivers, while others(att verizon etc)waited for ics to update thier phones drivers.(im sure its because they knew our ics update would be late) anyways im sure this email is to remind people to update to get the mid jan update, i bet they get alot of complaints about the evo 3d under performing and the last update made this phone scream compared to before

I'd like to think that too, but I seriously doubt it. Why would Sprint want to release an update to ICS for last year's phone right before they release this year's phones? It doesn't make business sense. When they release next year's phones, sprint stores will get a lot more traffic in and out of them, and the 3D can't be catching people's eyes still because it's on the cutting edge, it has to appear outdated, at least while sprint is dealing with the new phone rush.
When I bought my 3D, the epic 4g touch was out for about a month or two. The employee who "helped" me pick out a phone was straight up lying to me (maybe she really just had no clue, but then why was she employed at a sprint store?). I was told that the 3D was a slow, outdated, single core phone, 1 ghz processor, and she overexaggerated the epic touch's specs as well. Glad I did my research because she was worthless.
I'm not gonna jump on the nexus and one bandwagon quite yet, this phone is plenty powerful for me right now.
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

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.

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
