I am 99.9% we are not getting Official ICS for G2x

Tmonews is reporting the ICS updates in the near future. The only devices mentioned are GS2, Amaze, and Sensation. I was pretty sure we weren't getting it before but now I am almost positive that we are not. Perhaps if the O2x gets it then we can port it over.
I am waiting to see when will the Galxy Note or Galaxy S3 come to T-mobile. If the date is too far away(We are always that last to get anything) then I am getting a $399 Galaxy Nexus.

Yeah I agree. We aren't gonna see an official ICS update. This phone caused way too many problems for T-mobile/LG. If we were to get an update it should've been before the update for the SGS2 since the G2x came out before that phone.

Although, from that site that you posted look at the very left of the picture. It says G2x with the letters "ch" at the end of a word below it. Maybe there is some hope after all!

More like
Gingerbread Patch

Or it could have been an update for the mytouch line.

Just wait it see guys. So many of these similar threads are being made, it's just a waste of time right now.
Just enjoy GB. TMO released a good GB ROM and CM7 is still pretty awesome for this phone. If ICS comes then cool, if not then just be content or move on to something else.

Look at the picture in the link from the OP
On the left hand side, it says G2X in red font. Below it you can make out the letters "ch" at the end of the word. So maybe that means that the G2X Ice Cream SandwiCH update is overdue????

Ok, so since everyone wants to sit here and bash. Lets me burst everyones "official ICS" dreams. Its not gonna happen. It'll most likely never happen. How do I know this? I sell phones. If T-mobile had plans for it, why would they move forward in production of newer model phones? Oh, and the reason HTC sensation is getting it is because they make money on it. The G2x is falling behind in the market where everyone wants the Galaxy series (say hello to the galaxy blaze and the soon GS3) or HTC. If no one's been paying attention(and I doubt anyone does) HTC, G series, Samsung, and apple are the sellers. Not Lg, not pantect, not any company thats been a waste of funds for the last 2 decades of cell phones. But again, you know, ROMS aren't official, but they're only thing your G2x will get ICS with. So, yeah. Go cry in a corner now that you know LG hates you.

As long as the O2X gets an official ICS update from LG, then we'll be fine.

Interesting post from the O2X thread, regarding ICS update:

Maybe an incompetent LG representative (since the Wind "O2X" is a G2X without the Tmobile logo) or on the contrary.

Possible Indication of a Thunderbolt 2?

Just went to HTC's tradeup site and saw that there was an option for a Thunderbolt 4G ($40 for fully functional unit with no damage) and a Thunderbolt 2 ($150 for fully functional unit with no damage). Maybe just an error but still interesting.

HTC Vigor?
Article about the posibility of Vigor being the successor to the ThunderBolt
http://www.phonearena.com/news/HTC-...DROID-Prime-replaces-the-Droid-Charge_id22056
Unofficial pictures of what the ThunderBolt 2 (Vigor) might look like. Not sure if these are legitimate, but if you have a curious insite on this device, I would check it out:
http://posteritytechnology.blogspot.com/2011/08/htc-vigor.html
HTC Vigor is rumored to be an Android 2.3.4 smartphone with 1.5GHz Dual-core processor and 720p resolution 4.3" display. It is expected to replace the HTC ThunderBolt in VZW's line. Other details remain unknown. HTC Vigor features 1GB of RAM, 16 gigs of internal storage, 8-megapixel rear and 2-megapixel front-facing cameras, while on the software front it will run an updated HTC Sense UI, version 3.5.

And even worse by Verizon IMHO. I'm sorry to say that once my T-Bolt dies (this is my second one) I'm swearing off HTC for the foreseeable future. I will stay with a Google Nexus phone or possibly Samsung. I have a love/hate relationship with verizon. Love the coverage I get (even getting 4g way out in the countryside in B.F.E. Minnesota) but HATE LOCKED BOOTLOADERS and the "You root it, it's yours and NO warranty no matter what the problem is/was attitude". Sorry HTC once burned twice shy.

If HTC can't support their existing product and customers then no way I'm touching another HTC product.

In the end, yes Verizon likes to screw you, making their phones CDMA, the only way you're using their phones out of country is using their overseas plans. But from my research its not impossible to change a CDMA phone to work GSM, just very, very hard.
But what really makes me sad is HTC. If developers like Liquid, DVicious, BAMF and etc can bring ICS and possibly Jellybean (not talking Protekk's build, DVicious called him out on Twitter the other day on his BS) then why can't HTC have the frakking ability to use the power & potential the Mecha still has? It's all about Greed.

Snapdragon S4 processor
New color : White
Extended internal storage : 64 GB (still no SD card slot)
Ships with Android 4.1 Jelly Bean and Sense 4+
Only for Taiwan, HTC UK says there is no plan for Europe :'(
If anyone find where to buy this amazing device, please tell us here !

HTC really wants a punch in his face. Why they keep doing Updates to already released phones?

the machine is magnificent. I would have bought without thinking!

if that phone will come out early we can port the jb rom from it to our one s.

Agreed.

HTC was smart by making the end caps tinted already. Bet those things get nasty after some use. I usually prefer white but I'm way more jealous of the storage space than the color in this case.

It's just not fair ;(
Sent from my HTC One S using Tapatalk 2

I think HTC's strategy will continue to fail them. It's essentially the same phone they released months ago just it has more storage. This is what the One S should've been when it came out, BUT it also should've had NFC to future proof the device.

Hopefully the memory IC is compatible with our phones so we can just resolder them
Sent from my HTC One S S3

It's not surprising to see HTC made this move to release a variation of one s with different colour and more storage space. And I don't think it's unfair to the "old" one s owner either.
Just like Samsung released S3 alpha in Japan which has better specs than the international S3, companies will never make perfect phone, at least release a perfect one at one time.
The very next day after a device is made available to public, it's already become "yeaterday's" gadget apparently and literally. Moreover we all believed one s was a near perfect masterpiece when we bought it and did not bother too much about the 16gig storage, so why should we complain it now 6 months down the road. And we all know, in 3 years time, or less, one s may only be grandpa's play tool...
Regarding the release of one s se in other countries, I guess it will be available in the future if HTC still wants to keep the one s line. Since I know some big Telecom company like orange uk has marked one s EOL, end of line/life. Or HTC is preparing something big to come in Christmas time.
I do think it would have been nice to have at least 32gig option when one s was released, however that was not the case...
Sent from my HTC One S using xda app-developers app

They could just design it with a microSD slot, it's that simple.
I knew that when I got the phone but didn't think it would bother me so much.
Roming it would be much easier... It's like they took the two bad things from the iPhone... Can't understand that.
Still I love the One S!

I disagree. Even after the One S came out, it's specs didn't become obsolete. The galaxy s3 was released shortly after and even that is on par with the one S based on benchmarks. And as the way things are, a lot of phones are being released with almost similar specs, with the exception of cpu speeds (architecture may be more optimized but say, exynos and snapdragon 4 are very much on par) and ram, phones aren't being differentiated. Not unless the new batch of architecture cpu are released and even then, manufacturer still have to create a phone around it. So while yes, this Taiwan version only phone has more memory, it doesn't mean any one s, one x, are going to be a grandpa toy only time soon. I can see the iPhone 5 being obsolete the moment it came out and being a grandparent toy only (Samsung commercial hit it dead on) but the one s will still be a contender. In fact, the only phones that become obsolete the day after released, are budget phones. Aka, one v and people still complain they aren't getting updates.

Speaking of unique HOS devices, check out this one:

good effort by htc but they really could save more complaints/headaches from current HOS owners by adding the following features:
bigger battery
pentaband frequency
shipped with jellybean 4.1
if priced right i'd buy it and sell my current TMOUS HOS.

How much it cost?

Yes, it's really a nice device.
You can buy it from Taiwan shopping website.

I'd like to see one as when I've seen the Galaxy Note out in public it just looks absolutely ridiculous in size... lol

according to HTC it has microsim card slot. I was thinking about getting the LG Optimus G but idk now, i may have to wait lol

That looks pretty good as well... lol
I want to wait and see what Google do with their Nexus range, I've heard that there are going to be a few different models to cater for the different type of users and they might be released by different manufacturers even.

I don't know which color I like better. The red w/black accents and the black w/red accents both look sick! I hope it's not just a Verizon exclusive when it comes to the states. How much you wanna bet the carriers will be charging $399 WITH a two year contract. "Oh it's 1080p so that's gonna cost an extra $100." Or they'll price it at $900 for off contract. That's one reason why I didn't want a 1080p phone to come out now. Carriers are gonna think it justifies a HUGE price increase.
You guys are all thinking about going to the Optimus G? Seems a lot of people are into the Optimus G. But LG? I don't know if I could buy an LG phone. The S4 Pro should be coming to other manufacturers phones also.

Another phone I have to work hard on getting. Each time I get a new phone there's a newer and better one coming out. I get the HTC inspire 4g and I see the one x. I get the one x and I see this x.x. oh well, happens everytime. The phone looks really nice and specs are great. Also jellybean!

As ridiculously sexy as this phone looks, I just don't upgrade my phone that often - I got the One X because I trusted it to last me through at least the 2 years of my AT&T contract.

That would've been strike #2 by HTC.
First of all, they should be more than thankful for us putting up with their faulty engineering ( hairline cracks ).
At least they could keep the phone up to date and tweak its performance as much as they can as a "payback" for the hairline cracks.
Second that's breaking their own officially given promise about bringing Lollipop to the One Mini.

Cracks weren't the issue here! And for best performance you should use a custom rom (I never used an official rom with all the google-crap, but wait for a working Lollipop that hopefully will be reduced to minimal).

I like how Lolipop is sutable to run even on 1Ghz singlecore 512mb ram devices, but HTC cannot make it for mini versions of it's flagship cuz of and i quote - 'technical constraints with the device's ageing hardware configuration.'
What a lot of bull! another marketing strategy from HTC... THROW AWAY YOUR ''OLD'' MINI AND MINI 2 DEVICES AND BUY 'ONE MINI 3' WHICH WILL BE SOON AWAILABLE AND HAVE LOLIPOP!
I am officially saying that i WAS a HTC fan (my last 4 devices was htc's = hero - desire - sensation - one mini) but seeing what a lot of bulls they have done for consumers(even more than apple) on it's devices next device im considering some other company than HTC!
Sorry but they have finnaly lost me with it stupid money making scheme rather than thinking for consumer ! :crying: This is too much now!

Guess who won't be buying any HTC device. FU HTC.

I would not write it off yet. HTC UK just posted new updates page here . One mini is listed there so it is supposed to receive additional update at some point.

It's gonna stay like that.
Devices that have something coming up describe the level of completion if you check

At least it is listed even if no update is currently in the process. My understanding is that devices listed are supposed to receive update sometime in the future. Others just fall into "Unlisted" category...

You're dreaming buddy.
HTC replied to me on Twitter again today.
There will be no Lollipop from HTC for the One Mini.
It's final, final, final.
