I don't know if its just me. But are HTC Amaze owners like LAST to get anything? I swear it looks like there has been a leaked ICS for every phone but ours. Crap, even the 5 year old HD2 from HTC has an ICS ROM. If HTC is really testing the ICS (Which Im starting to doubt) for the Amaze, we would at least hear SOMETHING from them besides, (er... 1st Quarter 2012). I don't know, starting to me sound like they just string us along.

I dunno if it's just me but it appears a few people's timelines are messed up. From every resource I've found the htc hd2 was released at the earliest 3-4quarter 2009 which makes it... Closer to 2.5 years old /off soapbox. But no, this isn't the case there are many, many phones without the hd2 is a great developer phone and due to its popularity and time it's been out the devs know it in and out and what needs to be done to get ics working, same with the vibrant, now. Last I checked gs2 doesn't have any ics. And nor does the mytouch lg devices and afaik mytouch slide among others I could be wrong but I don't believe so. Anyway man we'll get ics. Just takes time it's only been released for a few months now.

I don't believe the tmobile version does not sure about others, like I said based on last time I checked. But either way there are multiple phones without ics. And ours will come patience is a virtue.

LOL I had ICS on my HD2 before it died
Like LordDart said HD2 has alot of dev support which is what made it rock but yea anyways we'll eventually get ICS either from HTC or X.
It does suck though that they keep delaying it, but like many people have already said, better to wait and get something badass rather then get some half assed ICS port. I personally dont mind the wait too much since atleast we have gingerbread which isnt bad at all unlike some of the older versions like Froyo.
Thanks rx, plus, jeez I'm coming from a vibrant... Now we got really screwed. We didn't get official froyo for a long frigging time... And the difference between froyo and eclair was... Well the difference between champagne and carbonated piss... So waiting on froyo for that long was dang frustrating. Even our roms didn't have working gps on froyo for a long time, never got real cm support. Afaik. But now? Now the development there is ridiculously awesome. It's still a great phone. But yeah our phone is smooth and snappy as is... Unlike the vibrant ran outta box. For many months... So don't feel too bad we have a solid phone with some great devs.

I just left the t-mobile gs2. There is no ICS rom. There is also still no official word from Samsung about the update. They say the gs2 will get but no mention of the t-mobile variant. So at least the amaze is mentioned.

I know we don't have any ICS kernel sources yet but do you think we will get ICS before this August?
I thought I read somewhere that we were getting it in the next month or two. I would assume we would have a good working ICS port at the least in the next month or two. Can't speak for the devs here, but I thought that's what we were looking at. As for when ATT will push it out, that could be forever...I hate how long they take, but oh well.

Having used ICS on the captivate, it truly is an update worth switching devices for. However, I'm pretty happy with the I777 so I will just wait. Android updates that were actually really good: Froyo, Honeycomb, and ICS. The rest were just hyped too damn much and gingerbread is the worst of all of them (imho).
Wow. Use the sticky thread.

For one, it's not just ICS when Jellybean comes out, you're going to get it much quicker than anyone else. And also, it's the purest form of the Android version minus any bloatware each manufacturer puts on the phone, which can be either a pro or a con, but overall, the bloatware has been a con in the past.
IMO, Gingerbread was a very good update, Froyo didn't seem that special when I finally got it for my S7. The biggest improvement was non-broken radio firmware, which had nothing to do with Android version.
Gingerbread had significant power management improvements.

I love and appreciate all the work that the Devs have done for our phone, but if we don't get ICS soon I will be leaving this phone. A lot of my friends have phones with ICS roms and it is such a improvement over GB. I don't understand how one and two year old phones have ICS and Samsung won't allow us to have it. It is ridiculous.

What the hell is your problem? Name one phone other than the Nexus line that has received ICS officially.
HTC hasn't released any updates yet.
Motorola hasn't released any updates yet.
Sony has only released betas (I applaud them for putting out prereleases)
Asus has only pushed it to one tablet (easier to port HC tablets due to HC being a newer codebase and not having to deal with the RIL) and that was an utter disaster
So far, my experience with ICS is that it's not an improvement over Gingerbread. I haven't been able to see any significant positive improvement - some parts of the UI are a bit shinier, but the gapps user interface is clunker than it was in GB. ICS has some good improvements on tablets, but for phones - not so nice.

First of all I said that I APPRECIATE the devs!!!! And I never said that the roms were official. Almost all HTC and LG phones have ICS roms. I left t-mobile with the htc sensation and believe me that phone runs 300% better now that it is running ICS. And by the way Entropy it is no disrespect to any dev by what I said, I am rocking your Kernel right now (Excellent job). I am pissed at Samsung and them only. Our phone is supposed to be a flagship phone so what the hell is the holdup?
If you can't wait then just go get the G Nexus. These questions have been brought up and beaten to death. Just don't be surprised when Ics finally drops for our device and our Roms are superior than most. GS2 surely has the hardware to run prety much anything smoothly and dev community is strong here

Just for those of you wondering how long until Jellybean. Hopefully, if they keep releasing new versions, manufacturers will start dropping their skins so they can keep up. (I know that's never going to happen, but wishful thinking!)

The Evo 4G will never and was never planned to receive ICS, and yet there are completely functioning ICS builds available for it, with working camera on top of everything else besides the obvious 4G (and maybe a few other things, I haven't followed OG Evo development since I upgraded to this phone).
Official releases aren't a huge deal unless we need them to fix something. The problem with ICS on our phones have to do with the difference between it and GB, as well as our camera. I do not foresee JB to be a big difference from ICS, kind of like Froyo to GB.
So in the end an official release won't matter as long as JB isn't a huge difference over ICS, and we can use the official ICS release in order to make sure the camera works.
You're going to be able to run JB on this phone, do not worry.

I know the phones hardware is more than capable of handling JB. And I'd agree with everything you said, but our phone has some unique needs that others don't. Like you mentioned, the 3d/camera is one of them and also Wimax. ICS has been around for quite a while and there isn't a single ICS build for our phone that is a nice stable daily driver. Getting some of our phone's features to work without the help of HTC may be a bit tough. The development scene of the Evo 3D isn't huge either, though thankfully we have many great devs.
I came to the Evo 3d from the HTC HD2, now that's a phone that seems to be able to run just about anything. Ridiculously massive development scene. It had ICS running long before many other phones and it isn't even an android phone.

I can agree with that, mostly. What I'm trying to say is that, after a release from HTC, we hopefully won't have to worry too much about JB in the future.
Plus as long as jellybean drops within eighteen months technically we are supposed to get it .

I'm not holding my breath for Verizon to release JB for this phone, wouldn't be surprised one bit if we didn't get it. I'm with prairiedogn though with hoping this community gets some kind of growth here in the future.
The original Incredible got 4 updates in all, and got its most recent update this past summer, over 2 years after its debut, but the update broke most peoples' phones, and it has been speculated that it was intentional.
All the major manufacturers claim they support a phone for 18 months after its debut, so hopefully at least one big update is coming our way. I expect we'll at least get 4.1.2, but that might be the end of it. If not even that, I'll be pretty disappointed.
Maybe we'll get to skip Jelly Bean and go straight to Key Lime Pie. At least that's what I'm hoping for.

Not necessarily true. Many things can be done with out kernel source as long as the knowledge (as in people with the knowledge and the device) to do it is available. That is usually the big hurdle though.

Just S-OFF & root, flash custom rom with sense 5, & blam! Done. I gave up trying to have faith in VZW. Always delays & other BS. I'll stick with the devs. Better updates. Better support. Better features.
Thanks for posting this. Most people thought it wouldn't happen at all but better late than never. The only reason I get stoked about official releases is because it's much smoother for development. Cutting to bits some port has proven to be problematic so any official release can yield higher quality custom roms.

Yeah, I won't run the official OTA anyways, but having an official base for our phone makes it so much easier for the devs. They don't have to hack and port from other phones to try and possibly work with the crap kernel source we have now.
Ah well, I do agree it sucks we have to wait but as said, having a version for our precious DNA will make it easier in the long run for the devs not having to port everything. Still better than it was stock thanks to the viper team Rom. And always better than an iPhone

They'll delay till end of 2nd quarter and by then device will be EOL so therefore no more updates. HTC should stop tweeting about timelines if they continuously cannot hold them. DNA is a perfect reason why you should root your phone. Hardware capable, glacial software updates or never.
Why do people still complain, is the same for almost every AndroiD maker. If you don't like it, switch to at&t and get a nexus. If you need an official then sit back, wait, and don't hold your breath. If you don't go flash a rom.

I replied to his tweet about the 4.4 update asking if that is considered him putting it in writing, and he said "Yes" without any hesitation.
I don't know how to post a twitter image so I just copy/pasted the text of his response:
My question to him:
@jasonmacHTC @crmeyerhofer Is this considered you putting this in writing?I love HTC dvcs,but lack of updts on 3 of them are driving me away
His reply to me:
Reply to @badogg @crmeyerhofer yes. we need to finalize schedules internally and with Verizon.
Are they still promising the 4.3 update by the end of the year?

Why do people still complain, is the same for almost every AndroiD maker. If you don't like it, switch to at&t and get a nexus. If you need an official then sit back, wait, and don't hold your breath. If you don't go flash a rom.

Because moto is a google owned company . Probably they had the kitkat code before it was announced. My 2 cents. Also they run almost a vanilla android version HTC is very modified.

@gtrovil @HTCUSA realistically. Barring last min surprises, it will come in December (https://twitter.com/JasonMacHTC/status/403921453050908672)

Remember most of the update issues are what Verizon does after HTC gives them the update. HTC actually does a decent job with updates for all carriers it is just Verizon that delays them.
This phone is a year old. It will receive nothing from Verizon. They'd rather you upgrade.

And this is exactly why I appreciate the Devs here on XDA for our Droid they keep things fresh as possible. Don't get me wrong eventually the Devs will move on but hey so will I it's inevitable but for now I'm good
