who said that? a rep, a clerk, a tech, who? okay, even if it was someone with "inside info" they would be one of a thousand ive been reading on these boards for months saying when it was coming. It was supposed to be december, then late december, then early january and it just keeps on going up until this pitiful thread. it will come when it comes and the only official date i will go by is the one verizon and/or htc establish.
Doesn't the incredible come out tomorrow? Thats the only reason I thought it MIGHT.

It would seem that way unless you can explain yourself or your sources. If you're right i'll eat my words but I'm 99.99999998% sure you're full of ****, or like I said, misinformed. It's not an attack on your personally, you're just the umpteenth person I've seen claiming the exact same thing.
Cheerio
I'm not taking this personally, because I believe you just may have misread my post.
I said I would guarantee that the update is NOT coming out tomorrow.
So you are saying you are 99.9999999% sure it is?

This thread is on the failboat down the 2.1 River!
from somewhere i read,it was said we werent goin to get the update due to the release of the HTC Incredible taking over and being the newest with 2.1..dont remember where i read it.but patiently we are waiting for this release,hope it does or at least tell us if/and if its goin to come out or not for our phones,would be nice
Well it's the 29th @10:30 and still nothing! LOL.......Not gonna hold my breath!
They never release updates on thursday.. who's smoking crack?
and We will NEVER get the 2.1 release, VZ has better things to support with the incredible.
Sad but true, I would love to be wrong.

I think you are mistaken. Why would they not release 2.1? Its on HTC to come up with the update, Verizon just tests it before they release it. Supposedly HTC is releasing 2.1 for the Hero on sprint this month which is an older phone. I think they will upgrade us, as promised, when its ready. VZ always updated older Blackberry's when the new OS updates came out even if the phone was old and replaced. I think DjCalvin is just speculating.

Let's see what they say. This doesn't just effect HTC but the Evo 4G has been their top selling handset. Granted, Nexus 4G is what we (well, lots of us) will go to but the ability to customize our devices could easily move people away from Sprint.

Not sure what updates you are referring to but the Nexus gets updates first in most cases as it's "pure Google". I guess this might be bad if you are a believer in and reliant on Sense but for the AOSP group, it's AOK because it's what we are all trying to get to anyway.
I want to stick with HTC and the Evo/Evo 3D but may have to jump ship. Look on the bright side, at least our wireless provider HAS the next best thing.

I think he was probably referring to the Galaxy S II. A lot of people see the NS4G as old tech and not worth the purchase. Accordingly, they see the SGS2 as the next best thing if the EVO3D will retain the status of the locked bootloader.

That's pretty much how I read it. They're probably going to give some generic statement about why they're doing what they're doing and not change their position one bit.

Makes sense... I just get antsy when I'm up for an upgrade and I sometimes forget not everyone is on the 12 month plan. Nexus, yes... Galaxy and new carrier, I never even considered it but the 3D situation surely does suck all the way around.
Sprint is geting the Galaxy S II.. It will be called the Samsung Within, and it will be the exact same as Verizon and AT&T's... No Keyboard.

I know who's phones I will continue to buy. I really hope it applies to the Evo3D.
I was so pissed and so certain that they wouldn't do anything but lip service that I nearly got a NexusS4G today....I was so amped on getting a new phone that I didn't care what it was--so long as it wasn't from HTC.
...glad I didn't do that. Preorder is still on... eff year
This is why I didn't cancel my pre-order. Imagine if people tried this against apple. Wouldn't get anywhere...

could you buy one on a new contract from amazon for a penny then terminate the contract? It would basically cost you a month of the most basic service and $350.
I'm going to be honest, that is really quick for htc.. They never release kernel source that quickly..

What about the Boost mobile one.. forgot the name but i saw it under roms page
What ever happened to the rule that YOU COULDN'T POST UNLESS YOU HAVE 25 posts else where? lol. Gotta love when the first thing someone asks is the same question that has been asked 20 times in the same week.
BUT SERIOUSLY!? HOW WOULD we know if it is different? how would any person on this site know when and how and where it is rolling out?
To answer your questions. YES IT IS DIFFERENT! How? idk. no one knows unless you're a direct employee of HTC or sprint that works directly in that department developing the software for the phone. Last time I checked... they would never leak any information like that out unless it is already out.

Welcome to AT&T! Home of the slowest updates. And according to the HTC site AT&T is still only in "Stage 2 - Integration stage" meaning their still loading all their bull**** bloatware onto it. Haven't even begun testing.
They gave up on the m8. I think anyone who knows phones will soff and go to Dev or flash international
Here is AT&T's "reply" (if thats what you want to call it) to Lollipop release.

I don't think they've given up either. At least HTC certainly hasn't, as for now its still the premiere flagship in their lineup. As for AT&T, they've always been agonizingly slow on updates, and have actually been doing better on the M8 than some past devices.
It also needs to be considered that AT&T/HTC included a feature that on 4.4.4 that the other versions don't have (VoLTE) so comparing the release dates is a bit apples and oranges.
Hopefully 5.0 won't be as delayed. You would think that since they now figured out the VoLTE issue, we wouldn't have a similar delay on LP. On the other hand, it would seem a bit odd to have 5.0 roll out right after 4.4.4.
Well ladies and gentlemen its official, we're the last to get the Lollipop update. Sprints M8 just got it. AT&T, theres a seat in hell for these people.

True, just sucks being last. If it wasnt for AT&T having VoLTE I'd just convert to international.
