Dear Ryno,
Thank you for emailing HTC Technical Support regarding an update to the HTC Flyer.
The device should get a small maintenance release update very early in 2012 and Honeycomb sometime after that.
We apologize for any inconveniences that this may cause you, Ryno.

For those of you still waiting, I just called HTC and was told this exact same thing, word for word. Clearly reading from a script. Too bad. If you "want" to root Globatrons guide and support in his thread is top notch. The decision is yours though, It's your device. HTC told us it was coming soon earlier this year, soon is obviously a relative term.

Too bad, I believe that HTC will try to make it without any problem, but it really takes very long long time. More than half year was passed. I really need the function which allowing pen works on sketchbook or quill. I think i should not wait for htc and try to root Globatrons guide ..., shouldn't I?
That is why I bought a Nexus, and am not buying anymore htc products.

Not defending HTC but Samsung is not exactly stellar with software updates either.
The canned answers are infuriating but imagine the amount of calls that come in saying where is my update.

WHY~~
Purchasing a nexus, either the HTC one or thevsamsung versions give you thevupdates directly google. Samsung, or HTC in some cases have nothing to dovwith the updates.

Don't know but Globatron's theory is making a lot of sense now, carrier/operator pressure. There's no such pressure for the WiFi models, atleast none that I can think of other than customer service calls, emails, etc...
My question , other than to be pissed at HTC, does anyone care about this at this point? We already have the official release available to us through the forum. Even better we have the S-OFF rooted version. The developers have the source code too, what the heck do we need HTC to do this for? They won't be making it any better just to push it out to BB customers. You will get the same thing we already have, try it and then go to the rooted version anyway. So BFD ...

If referring to rooters, true, but is good info for non rooters... assuming you want the update and tab features, verses losing the display space.
I chose to keep GB, since prefer the display space.

I'm pleased to see Eris is rooted. however what if in the future, Verizon decided to ship out Eris with Official 2.1 pre-installed, how will we be able to root Eris from there?
I don't see the Eris shipping with 2.1 from what I understand the Erie is being phased out and the 2.1 ota update will probably be after that. this is pure speculation I may add
Sent from my Evil Eris v1.1 using the XDA mobile application powered by Tapatalk
Dont worry man. There is no way to know for sure.. But im willing to bet 2.1 for the HTC Eris will be rooted before that would ever be a concern. And if somehow it does happen and no root is found, then everyone with a leak ROM install is back to where they started..
they're discontinuing the Eris so I don't see it coming up.

Really, where did you see this? Can you link me an official press release?
As far as I know, the eris is selling quite well and Verizon has no need to discontinue it.
@OP: If they release 2.1 on new devices we are in the same boat as all of us with the 2.1 leak... Rest assured that we are still working on getting root for 2.1.

Maybe you would know then.... if say 6 months from now our eris breaks down and we have the insurance, will we be getting a refurbished eris or be offered the next best thing (incredible)....???
Supposedly, the Eris' end of life is in May.
I don't know how they replace phones.. but I would assume a refurb, I HIGHLY doubt the Incredible, with the specs it has? No way. Maybe the moto droid.
& as far as I can tell, they haven't officially said it in a press release, but there's a screenshot circulating;

Seeing that there is a boatload of work to install this leak, I decided that its probably time to do homework instead of trying to play with my phone at 2AM.
However, I have noticed a lot of people saying that the release cannot be too far behind since the leak came out.
I'm a bit skeptical on this idea, because didn't a leak come out for the HTC Sensation ages ago? Now, I did not research much, but as far as I know (again, I may be wrong), the Sensation didn't have an official update either.
Its definitely not too far-fetched to think that the update might be delayed even further. HTC did promise that the updates would be early 2012 and as we all know, "early 2012" was a long time ago. Some said the updates would be during MWC, some said otherwise. What do you guys think?
As for development, this is definitely a very good sign as the interest and traffic for the HTC Amaze the past two days were quite phenomenal. The CM9 builds and Evervolv builds never really got anywhere for months. Do you guys think its worth downloading the leak now? Or would waiting be a better option? From what I heard, you have to re-root your device simply downloading the update.

The only htc sensation(the original one, not the xl) that doesn't have ics is the sensation 4G (T-mo version)
I honestly wouldn't be too surprised if Tmo is sitting on the update to push sales for the One-S. Not that I am a marketing expert or anything, but so far the release seems very stable and I can't figure out why they are holding off on it

Yes and no is my uneducated opinion. I feel like they're update the firmware yet because the radio seems finicky. With s-off, I think that they'll just be able to update the firmware through hboot, but with s-on I think we'll need to go stock, download the update, then do the reroot process....I could be off, but in the end we'll still be ok for any updates either way.
I think that pushing One S sales definitely sounds likely.
Meanwhile, I just think T-Mobile is bad with updates and this sucks for the development community because it means less resources to help people. There are so many devices out there getting updates anyways. Its not like updating the Amaze is going to hurt their revenue either. Its just frustrating. I definitely advise against waiting for an update from T-Mobile. Definitely update now. There are already great ROMs that were made.

THIS.
I can't wait for this device. Preemptive thanks to all the devs working on this one.
So I have some questions:
1) Does S-on with an unlocked boot loader through HTCDev allow for CM9 and other AOSP ROMs?
2) Does the Kernel source releases on other One X phones include the code for the ImageSense chip? This will be tied into how well the camera performs under CM9, etc.
Thanks!
Dev for the Evo line are the best. I've had the OG Evo, the 3d and now the Evo lte. And this is good news.

I don't see how they'd have any time to fix this before shipping next Wednesday. Plus, how will they know? They better not be so out to get us that they surf the internet forums looking for people who have found ways around their system. And even if they did, would they be able to find out HOW they exploited it? I'm asking hypothetically, because I don't know these answers. But my thinking is that there is way too little time and ability to change anything now. Maybe on the next wave of phones, sure. But our 001 hardware will be exploited mightily it would seem!

Yup they have the s-off but are not releasing it I'm thinking it's because of the EvoLTE they want it to be release so they'll release it for both phoones so they both have the s-off before they get patch. Im thinking is the same method since they have the same s4chip.

HTC promised us the ICS update by the end of July. Wrong again. Here we are in August and no ICS update. I think I am like most people and dont really care about the update itself so much as HTC releasing the source code so we can get serious modding done. Personally, I am running CleanROM and it works great. I wouldnt mind having a new CleanROM based on the offical ICS update, though, if it ever comes out.
Either way, I will NEVER buy another Verizon or HTC phone again. This was my first on both of them and it will be my last for sure. Soon as my 2 yr contract is up, I'm ditching Verizon.
Edit: Well, go figure. I post this and then the update comes out the next day. Mod, delete this whole thread at will, it serves no purpose now.

Dear Andrew S,
Thank you for contacting HTC regarding the Android 4.0 update. I understand that you are excited to receive the update for your HTC Rezound. I will be happy to share the information I have with you.
The ICS (Android 4.0) update will be released for the Rezound by the end of this month (July) with final pushes in August. Due to localization, testing, and partner approvals, updates do not roll out to all devices at the same time. For devices on a wide variety of carriers and in many countries, rollouts can take up to 45 days from the initial update to reach everyone. It’s almost here, Andrew! We are as excited as you are. I hope you enjoy the rest of your week!

It's not HTC its Verizon. Verizon has this new thing called the cloud that saves you emails and pic ect....... I know this because I had a htc Inc2 that received a update and it lost emails Facebook ect.....so Verizon offered me the rezound because they had no time line to fix it so thanks to Verizon cloud we don't have ics this is why htc keeps posting it on there web page its available .

As about a billion people have posted on all these "waiting for OTA" threads have said, ICS for the Rezound is available RIGHT NOW for anyone that wants it - you don't even have to root - I'm new to the Rezound, but have been rooting phones with the help of XDA for years now - i have CHOSEN to wait for the OTA, knowing that at any time I can flash one of the great ROMS that have been put together with great care and support by some really smart people - it just seems odd that people who are on a forum dedicated to NOT WAITING for manufacturers to get their act together will post repeatedly about how upset they are about having to wait -

Excellent point, will still need them to officially release ICS so in turn they have to release the ICS kernel source code also then the devs can do even more great work.

Just left a corporate Sprint store issues with not making calls( NETWORK OF COURSE) anyways asked tech guy if he heard of update coming anytime soon. He said yes that his boss keeps asking him if he got the update yet and that he had gotten it already. Guy at store has not gotten it yet, but at least it is confirmed, kinda. So we'll see.

What update?
Sprint stores don't know a whole lot more than people here. And "update is coming soon" could be just a way of getting you out of the store.

I can come on here and say I got the update myself, and I'm the only one that Sprint is letting test it right now in the real world. It doesn't really hold water. Unless there's a press release saying that it's "coming" or is being pushed, there's no way to confirm this is true.

But, to bubble this up a little. The HTC One X has Jelly Bean rolling out right now, Android version 4.1.2. News is hitting Google within the last hour.
Hey just letting you know what I was told. Guy didn't want me out of store we talked for a while he was a cool dude. He has evolte and seemed genuinely honest and so there you go. Should have changed title to maybe confirmed. I think everyone knows there is some sort of update coming down the pipeline. I'm not the first to say there is. Just one of the many that had heard rumblings from unconfirmed source.
Peace and chicken grease yall.

There is always an "update" in the pipeline. The question becomes are we talking 2 weeks, 2 months or 2 years?:silly:

What confused me is that it looks like one of them had the update... I'm going to guess that it was for Android 4.0.4 and Sense 4.1

Hhhmm well one x in taiwan getting update sounds like good news. Hopefully sprint is full of surprises and fixed this dang 4g connection issue. Fingers crossed.

Guess it is better than "the LTE connectivity is working as designed. We have no plans on modifications."
I received some update this morning. I had a message popup which stated that my update was successful. I do not have check for updates selected either. I never was asked if I was ok with the update, it just did it on its own. I am rooted with meanrom 4.8. Quickly looking, I couldn't see what it actually updated. All the software seems the same.
I wonder if this is the same said update. If it is, what was updated?

Probably a profile/prl update. Sprint auto pushes this type of update from time to time.

Maybe it was a profile update. Is there any way to tell? My prl is and has been 25006. Makes you wonder though.
Here's a pic of the Prl page:

This is great news! The reps also told me that 4G (Wimax) was coming in a few months back in 2010 I believe. *Checks watch* I can't wait, any day now I will have all kinds of 4Gs.

Did u get the update that supposedly fixed ringtone assignment? Because that was the last real update.
Haters hate. Just passing information. But as usuall people use that as an excuse to troll.

I don't take any of the OTA updates, so I've got to say no on if I ever received the ringtone one. I'm assuming there's no way to check to see if I did?

Not trying to hate...just trying to say, by posting in this forum you probably know more about updates then 99% of Sprint employees. Not only that but we're not sure what kind of update is being talked about. Honestly I hope you're right and there is some update, any updates are welcomed.

It should've said it was contact ringtone update. Read other thread and seems like it is something different. Idk what it is. Don't get message even when I try to update firmware manually.
I haven't heard anything about an update. Nothing from corporate, either.

Removed. My original post said nothing about rooting or achieving S-Off. I have no desire to do so.
