[Q] Ice Cream Sandwich - T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide

Do you guys think the mytouch 4g slide will get an Ice Cream Sandwich update swiftly?

Doubtful. T mobile, and all US carriers in general are absolutely abysmal when it comes to rolling out updates on time. Normally the rest of the world is an update or two ahead of us when it comes to official updates.

Is anyone really surprised?

Nope doesnt suprise me one little bit. HTC is really going down the ****ter. No source code and now no ice cream sandwich? Wow.

i hear it's going to make the doubleshot processor use both cores

pahaha ! I'd rather CM 8 than the official update anyway. Have any estimations on how long it would take once ICS source is out and we have CM 7 running?

It already uses both cores. This is implemented below the android layer -- in the kernel itself. The Linux kernel has always been SMP.

"CM" version numbers are meaningless.
The only version number here that matters is "4.0".

But god knows when its going to come out.
My own opinion is that vanilla is better for our phone rather than honeycomb... coz honeycomb is optimize for tablets and vanilla i guess for our phones... and if you were to ask me which i would choose personally i would say vanilla vanilla ice cream taste nice too ! or maybe after vanilla maybe google will develop a new os called chocolate ice cream? ^__^

Vanilla = AOSP build with no overlays.
Honeycomb can be vanilla build or have overlay added (such as TouchWiz or Sense)
Ice Cream - next generation of Android which will blend Honeycomb and Gingerbread so one system can be used on both phones and tablets.
After Ice Cream Sandwich its gonna be a little cup of J-E-L-L-O. LOL
Sent from my HTC Thunderbolt
Google is not going to release the source for Honeycomb, so there is no hope for a port. Wait until Ice Cream Sandwich.

obviously you don't own a tablet? because if you did like I do you would understand how stupid it would be to have a 4.3" screen displaying honeycomb. it would look foolish. You can always use a launcher with a honeycomb theme if you are that desperate to try honeycomb...

I'm wondering too when 2.3.7 is gonna be available for the sensation... Haven't seen anything online about it yet. Mostly just the Nexus
I waited for a thread like that xD
Have a wait we dont have 2.3.5 yet and HTC cant be so fast
Exactly, 2.3.5 isn't officially out yet so we're gonna have to wait a while yet!
crawl before you walk
2.3.7??????????????????
Still waiting on official 2.3.5!
considering we just got a leak of 2.3.5 with sense 3.5 i wouldnt expect 2.3.7 anytime soon if at all, unless it plugs the security gap found a few days ago
We may get it on cm7. Cm is running 2.3.7 on the thunderbolt.
.7 is only support for Google wallet.

Not that it really matters, but it'll probably be 4.0, wont it? It's just a number, but since it's merging tablets and phones and tablets are already at 3.X, calling it 2.4 would give them the impression that they're downgrading. And giving separate version numbers for the two systems would defeat the purpose of 1 OS for all form factors.

Cause the mytouch Line is there flagship and they want to keep there phones stock. Idk. Who knows at this point. The sensation had source code within a month. This phones in Its almost 3rd month and we got nothing. Someone is holding it back, Im leaning toward tmobile. :shrug:
Sent from my Senseless Doubleshot using xda premium
That's bs. There needs to be like an hour where people just call and blow HTC up with demands for the Kernel source. I mean, they've got to release it eventually correct?
If I remember correctly it did take awhile for the 3G slide as well. Definitely BS when Samsung has already released the source for the Galaxy S II across the board.

Simple
CM3 = 1.5
CM4 = 1.6
CM5 = 2.0/2.1
CM6 = 2.2
CM7 = 2.3
and since phones didn't get honeycomb, which is 3.0, we'd get 4.0, so it'd be CM9

Since the CyanogenMod #s don't line up with the Android #s, and there's not a CM8 for Honeycomb*, I'd put good money on CM8 being ICS.
*If I'm not mistaken, Honeycomb was never open-sourced from Google?
Is the MyTouch4g and MT4gs based on the 3g models likely to get an OS update from Tmobile? Or is the only way to expect ICS tools to go the custom rom route?
Thanks in advance.

By the time the 2.2 update for the mt3gs came out, there had already been a leaked version of the rom on xda that was EXACTLY the same...

Its worst than that... CM numbers are worse than retarded.
Major version should be UPSTREAM VERSION.
CM9?
Should be versioned as android-4.0-X.cm.arch
Screw the CM version, it is MEANINGLESS.
X being the specific build number for android-4.0.
CM is not a fork, it is downstream, and those arrogant SOBs should accept it.

ICS Confirmed for Early 2012

https://www.facebook.com/notes/htc/...pgrades-to-ice-cream-sandwi/10150518462703084
We are getting ICS early 2012
darn, that's so far away... :/
i hope the xda community will provide a working one earlier than that.
Thanks to the sense interface wich is mostly adapted by google in ICS HTC needs to rewrite everything and we are getting delayed updates.
Pretty bothersome actually
Good News! Hope that there is no delay this time!
due to Gargle releasing source in the next weeks we'll get to experience ICS AOSP goodness via CM9 before the official HTC update.
CM9 is going to take a while too to be released for Sensation even after AOSP gets the new source....maybe we get a build around Christmas?
Awesome! Thanks for posting Def will not root now.
very exciting for us Sensation users.

Why do people make excessively optimistic posts like this? We've had CM7 for roughly 2 months now and it's still in the alpha stage. If it takes them this long to build a ROM for the Sensation on a version of Android that was around for long before the Sensation came out, why would it be any quicker for them to build a ROM for the Sensation on a new version of Android?
Maybe because cm7 is not officially supported for sensation and cm9 might be?

CM7 will be official on the Sensation, but before it can be folded into the "Nightly Builds" it needs to get out of Alpha status.
Why would CM9 be quick? Because unless I missed something *huge* Google did not change how the drivers work, which are going to be the same (more or less) as they are in CM7.
So if CM7 works, CM9 won't take much to make work.
Simple.

Cool let me know I actually just got the s2 from a friend for 150 and no contract i couldn't pass it up lol
I just moved to one of these from a HTC Incredible I've been running ICS on since January and I have to say, it's hard to go back to GB, but the phone is just so much better and it's the only sub 4" phone that has a dual core procesor and is reasonably priced out of contract. Anyways, hoping for ICS sooner rather than later!
ICS will be out tonight for the Galaxy S 2 ...Anyone here how long it will be until the Blaze is updated to ICS?

I'm looking forward for the source to drop. Since the T989 uses the same general chipsets we do, I'm hoping the source will build and work for our phones (with a little coercion). It's amazing how little official msm8660 stuff there is out there.
I swear, finding source, info, etc on this stupid little phone has been a labor of love, and I run into dead ends everywhere I go :-(
