Droid Razr gets Jelly Bean update today while we still wonder if the Rezound is even on the list.
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using xda app-developers app
My forecast, the Rezound probably won't see jellybean officially. If that's what you're wanting to see I would get a different device. And by that I mean a device that already has jellybean.

And HTC wonders why their profits fall as they forget about flagship phones, first 4G phone, first HD 720p phone, etc...if u can't keep those updated then why keep buying from your company? HTC better redesign their business model or bye bye. Even Motorola is only gonna slightly theme on top of Google updates so they can update within 3 months of a new release. I will protest against HTC by buying the new X phone by google and Motorola.

I think a lot of it is "why bother with Verizon phones?"
Verizon only cares about the popular phones. You can't blame them if they make money from it.
With the Bionic getting OTA 4.0 and Razr getting OTA 4.1.2 shows that HTC is slowly digging their own grave. They are always late or deliver an incomplete update that breaks something that needs and update to fix it. HTC flyer comes to mind....they broke it with update then simply walked away like a child who broke something acted like it never happened.

I disagree. I feel it's a fail on your part for even considering it will get Jelly Bean. Why are you so worried about what Motorola is doing when you have a HTC device?

Posts like these bother me. The phone got ICS months ago and now peopel are whining like little babies, "I WANT JELLY BEAN! HTC SUCKS!" HTC IS FAILING!"
To be honest I probably won't get another HTC device in 2013 when I upgrade, but I'm not whining about my Rezound either. I paid a mere $60 for it 3 months after it was released.
I will laugh at the naysayers and whiners **WHEN** we get official JB OTA.

I don't think the Rezound was meant to be a flagship in HTC and Verizon's eyes. It was just a device to have something to sell near the holidays and was never too popular sadly.

If this is how u feel then why ever update the phone past what it comes equipped with. You are missing the entire point I was trying to make. This is hands down a better device than the Razr but is being held back by HTC that would rather build new phones than update them. My last 3 phone have been HTC, my next will be the X phone. If my thread bothers u so much to bad, it was a news update and opinion from me, we still have free speech....for now anyways.

If its legit, then you got a killer deal. The cheapest GN2 that I've seen was $350 but it had a cracked screen. I see some for $200-250, but I am sure those are scams. The next time you buy a Verizon phone, call *611 and verify the ESN status before handing over money or trading phones. A legit seller will not mind at all.

If you took the time to search there many posts of ppl sending back and getting phones with MDK, also those with new OTA, so like I said, it's a crap shoot and it's 50/50.. Cant hurt to try, though
The chances likely decrease each day for getting the MDK build so the sooner the better.

All roms built off of mdk do this smearing, even AOSP builds. Its very noticeable in the gallery too.
I'm surprised nobody notices it other than me, its the most annoying thing to deal with, makes the gs4 screen look crappy.
