I have a sensation on Three uk and I have been checking daily for ICS update.
Today, I was talking to customer services about other issue and asked about ICS, they put me through the technical team, and when I asked, they said there is nothing going on with sensation.
I said other networks have released ICS for the Sensation, and they answer was that they don't have to do so, and for now there is no plan to do so either!
I was more waiting for an answer like: we are working on it, or we are testing it...
I know I could root and I have done this when I had my old HD2, but just can't be bothered to do it again lol
I was under the impression that if the software was released from HTC, it should be make available to all users??
Anybody knows what this policy is?
I've been with three for a few years and my experience is they are absolutely useless with firmware updates, your best bet is to just debrand, the only problem is you lose your warranty. and the firmware is released by HTC but its amended by operators and released for their handsets, so if three never bother to change and release the firmware you will never get it.
Will do as soon as warranty expires, I think I will be changing networks after this.
I need some kind of assurance that the phone I am stuck with for 24 months will get the updates released by the manufacturer or I'll go elsewhere...
I though I was getting closer to get rid of the screenshot and overheat problems, but I see that is not the case...
Three
I tweeted Three three times and each time they have told me it is in testing. A friend of mine got a 4.#### update the other day and he told me it made his phone really laggy. He is on three, I don't know why he got that.
Just take the plunge and flash a custom ICS ROM,
Its easy to revert back to stock if needed.... Either that or wait......... wait for a very long time..
Update today!
Three UK announced on their Twitter this afternoon that the ICS update for the HTC Sensation (Not XE/XL) has been rolled out.
The update should appear soon for you

We get the Android 2.5 update in January!!!!! When Cyanogen/Dwang put this into their rom, everything is going to be EPIC
is there any actual proof for this?
if you look at the comments below the article droidheaven even said to go and ask t-mobile. i'm going to do that and hope.
UPDATE: I just talked to a T-Mobile Rep and he said he never heard of a 2.5 update coming in January. He checked and there is no documents. But there is hope. He also told me that there is an update and he won't be surprised if it was 2.5. One more thing. He said it is coming quickly.
LETS KEEP OUR FINGERS CROSSED!!!!

boys this is HTC we are talkin about, if ur device is older than 6 or 7months old you get no support whatsoever i was shocked to hear the hero was getting 2.1 so il be amazed if the G1 gets 2.5 i hope u do tho
HTC already gave up on the Dream, however, Android Alliance will never give up on its devices, while T-Mo has to support it at least until it actually has a single device with a different CPU
if only the mytouch gets the 2.5 update can the g1 get it too? i don't mean like OTA update but cyanogen/dwang/someone turns 2.5 into a ROM?
they should really make devices that can go up at least one in updates (like from 1.x to 2.x or somewhere along that line)
AWSOME
This means I loose hope for good touchscreen with Keyboard from Tmobile
YES APPS are back in bussniess

All roms from time to time

coming but not soon iPhone apps on g1 installer.
Just got off the phone with samsung. Tech support said gps fix for sure by end of sept. And froyo as soon as a few days to no more than few months. Also the update will come straight from them no att involved. Sept. 21
Fro-noes!!
Froyo update. As soon as a few days to no later then a few months. Thats like me saying, Yeah........Ill get back to you Mr. President. Within a few days, but no later then 4 years when your run is over with. Garenteed!
Every time someone calls Samsung or walks into an AT&T store and asks about fixes and updates, we get a slightly different answer. A dozen calls will yield a dozen different answers. The reality is that none of the people you can get to through the normal channels will know diddly squat about the actual release schedules. If we're lucky, the better than average rep/support tech will hear something about it a few days before it happens at best.
To get the real schedule, we need inside information. We need a Deep Throat! Someone on the test team at AT&T and someone on the dev/QA team at Samsung.

What if the dev/QA team at Samsung/ATT doesn't even have a schedule yet? This may sounds crazy but it is possible.
Remember that Galaxy S UK announced their Froyo update schedule 3 months ago. US division, on the other hand, still hasn't announced anything. Is it reasonable to assume the wait for Froyo update will be at least another 3 months?

I have been checking the Samsung site nearly daily for a week or so because their tech support also told me it would be available on their support site. However the last few days my bookmarked page is 404 and drilling down through the web site comes up dry also on downloadable Captivates stuff.

In all likelihood, it is part of their deal with AT&T to supply certain updates within certain time frames -- standard practice. It will also need to be factored into Sammy's development schedule as it sounds like their devs are going to be quite busy with different Galaxy S updates. There's probably only a couple dozen people who actually know first-hand what those dates are.
Few months...sounds like next year to me. Hopefully not, I really want Froyo on it.
whats the huge advantage of having 2.2? really whats so big about it

Update: Unrooted to try again and it don't let me re-update. The "check once/24hrs" deal is bull**** yO` Screw you ATT
Saw this on Engaget today Samsung has finally announced the official Froyo rollout.
It will start in the UK in early Nov and all carriers updated by the end of Nov was the official press release from Sammy.
Cross your fingers..... Maybe the release of the code will speed up some Captivate dev.
We can only hope
September, then October, now November...Let me guess...December is next?
Looking back over it, the press release reads like it's only going to cover the UK. WTF?
It also says that their pulling the rollouts they did in the Nordic countries because things were jacked up. Curious. Samsung sucks.

Because it is only a press release from Samsung UK division. They can't speak for other regions.
Samsung US said nothing and that probably means Nov. 2012 for us.
Beat me to the punch. You can read more here on Endgadget.
And the You Mobile Link as to why it was pulled in Scandanavian land too.
Pretty much I'm ok with a later November release if Samsung actually fixes the lag/bugs reported in that article.

If you read the article a little more closely - Endgadget states that it will roll in the beginning of November for the UK - then start rolling out at the end of November to the rest of the world (a.k.a. us).
So - my assumption was correct we should see it around Christmas!
Lol I might as well load a custom rom now or wait til someone creates a custom rom based off 2.2 for the I9000. that might take awhile for the epic though, probably quicker than a official ota release from samsung.
Going on 2months with my epic now, wishing HTC or Moto would have given me a sprint andriod device with a keyboard. Typing this would have been annoying without one.

If you read the official press release, there is no mention of anything outside of UK. As usual, Engadget injected its own opinion based on mis-reading of the press release.
The press release only mentioned all carriers, inside UK, will get the release by the end of Nov.

Yes it will. But it doesn't mean we will see it here in US by the end of Nov. 2010.
Regarding Froyo on US carriers: Samsung USA is saying:
@SamsungMobileUS Re: Froyo release in November statement came from SamsungUK. Froyo for US SGS will be avail this year http://ow.ly/2Xce8
So if it's not November, that only leaves December...
As it stands my personal opinion is that US carriers would start rolling it out at the beginning of the new year.

That's how I feel. I had an iphone for 2.5 years and absolutely loved it. It worked flawlessly. I had it jailbroken so I could customize the crap out of it with winterboard and run all the unapproved apps in cydia. But, me being me, I was a little bored and just wanted something differentso I sprang for a Captivate. Its a decent enough phone, but I'll never get another samjunk phone again, they are just crap with software updates. I'm not even sure I'll ever get another android phone. It's not nearly as open as everyone wants to believe. Here it's been several months and there's no custom roms out for it yet. I wouldnt especially call cognition too custom, its a stock samsung rom that's had some tweaks done to it. I'm stuck with this phone for 21 more months until my contract is up, I hate to have to spend $500-600 for another phone off contract. I'm really hoping samsung gets their act together because 21 months is a long ways to go. And it appears that handset makers are doing their best to really lock the phones down. The motos now have e-fuse, the new G2 is even worse. You can only temporarily root it, when you reboot it, it loads the OS back from a hidden partition so its like it was new. The only truly open phone is the N1.
I probably am in the minority here..but oh well..won't be the first time.
I would rather have something work than not. Since my Captivate works great..I can patiently wait till FroYo is released here especially if they are going to make sure it is done right this time. December isn't that far off,and I am sure it will be December possibly January before it is rolled out in the US for the Captivate..
I think many need to chill out and take the wait & see attitude. Let the other carriers get it first,that way most of the bugs will be worked out or at least known so we can see what is already wrong if anything before we install it.
Hell..the trend is never going to change for the manufactures to defeat what the developers cook up.If they can lock the phones down and force us to all have Iphones..then that is what they are going to do. I blame Steve Jobs at Apple for this and his strangle hold on AT&T..and I honestly think it is going to get worse...So..I see the other US carriers getting it before AT&T and releasing it.
I've learned from the school of Hard Knocks never to rush out and get the latest & greatest new thing anymore when it first hits the shelves..since almost every manufacturer is using it's customer based as BETA testers..
I know with every release elsewhere..it just gives the developers time and more code to use to build really good stable roms..not just patches and have them work greater than they already do.The Cappy has only been out for 3-4 months..give them all time..to get it right..

I keep going both ways on this. Yes Engadget read more into it. The press release is vague though:
The Android 2.2 software is being fully tested with UK operators and the upgrade will be available in the UK from early November. We expect all operator versions of the software to be fully tested and downloadable by the end of November.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
The way i read it is, that it is being tested in the UK Now, and will be available early November - all UK operators should be done by the end of November. It seems very UK centric.
I think we need to wait for separate carrier announcements in the US - the phones are different enough that each carrier will have their own schedule.
EDIT Samsung Twitter site confirmed this statement is UK only. They reference July quote that all US Samsung Galaxy S phones will get Froyo "This year".

So your choices are go back to iPhone, spend the dough for an AT&T N1, or keep your Samsung and ***** for another 21 mos.?
Who knows though? Maybe Samsung will release the 2.2 OTA and get it right?
Whether they release the upgrade in a month, two months, or three months - in the big scheme of things what's the difference? We've lived our lives for this long without Froyo, so big deal if it's delayed beyond whatever expectations have been created.
Furthermore, people who believe that Froyo will be bug-free and will be a remedy for all ills afflicting the Captivate are kidding themselves. Perfection (or even that which is close to perfection) is ever-elusive.
I don't know what people ***** so bad about this. There is a leaked froyo rom, PUT IT ON YOUR PHONE. Also why do you want them to rush some buggy crap? Let them do there thing. You have a Froyo rom, so just wait till they iron out all the kinks and let them give us a solid Froyo rom.
Talked with a Motorola rep via support webchat who said that they "don't know" if an update for ICS will come to this phone. This is highly disappointing. Does anybody have any other information? I am considering returning it if they back out on it (as I am still within the return period). Maybe AT&T has a better answer?

Unfortunately no AT&T does not have a better answer, actually it is worse. I got the "We are working very hard to have ICS ready for all phones that have the capability, and we don't have any dates to reveal for any phones upgrade to ICS". I then also got the "We have 4 phones getting ready to be released in the next 60 days that will have ICS already on them".
I also asked around at corporate, and I can not get any of the people I work with there to give my any information at all on ICS one way or the other, for any phone.
Don't worry though ports are on the way, I know that both lfaber06 and I will be working to get a real port of it over ASAP. In fact he has a true pre-alpha version already posted this morning.

You want to return the Atrix 2 when they don't even have the ICS update for the Motorola Razor yet and it's guaranteed? Me, I'm waiting for the Atrix 2 and here is why.
Google states that phones that run 2.3 can run ICS and it's up to the manufacturer to push the upgrades out. What manufacturer is going to push the hardest to get their handsets running ICS
Motorola/Google hands down

Not so fast there.... you are forgetting AT&T is the carrier, and they HAVE to do the actual ROM build, MOTO will give them all of the needed firmware and drivers and such, but it is AT&T who actually does the final build and approval for the releases, what we get off the MOT dev sites, actually is a joint effort from both Moto and AT&T.
I have direct information that if the Atrix 2 gets an ICS build, and IF is the word here, it will not be right away.
Why? You will most likely ask. It is becuase they (Moto and AT&T) are more interested in "Selling" you another more expensive phone, with ICS already on it. Both MOTO and AT&T don't get anything by releasing a new version of the OS to your phone. Just because a Phone can run it, does not mean that they will make it happen. Don't wait for something that might or might not come. If that is the attitude then go get a phone that already has ICS on it, you will be much happier.
I have information that IF, this comes out it will be after June most likely, April or may possibly. This last sentence is unofficial information, the official info I got from my client is posted in the second post here.

I agree completely on the time frame. However unlike other releases this one is different for Google. They will press extremely hard and bend over backwards to help update every phone in the field they can. The why is extremely easy
This ICS build will allow Google to build for their tablet platform AND the phone platform. The more phones they convert the larger the base to attract developers. This is the first shot they have had to have a single operating system. If they update every phone that can run ICS in about a year most phones current in the lineup and still in the field will be running ICS. Most tablets will be running ICS. As for the carriers they will leap on board since Google is going to be doing the work for them. The more phones on one platform the easier it will be to support. It's truly a win/win

If Atrix 2 does get ICS, it will be a very long time before that happens, Motorola hasnt even released an update to 2.3 to fix all the damn bugs on the phone. Atrix 2 is the red headed step child.
Red-heads rock ... FYI ...
assuming the carpet matches the drapes
off-topic apologies... back to maintaining positive ICS thoughts...
From what I have read..it would seem that perhaps manufacturers and the "almighty goog" are fighting over device disk space with their proprietary interface bloatware and OS upgrades as well...hence the perpetual speak of "fragmentation" as well... too many differences and no commonality. To someone else's point, hopefully ICS can bring a closer point of unification.

Interesting point well taken, but I'd have to as you this
Assuming you are the CEO of a carrier and you are presented with two paths and only have the time to pursue one course of action.
A) Put your programmers on fixing the current system and take them off upgrading as many phones as possible to ICS, even though the bugs with the phone are minor and don't impede actually using it as a phone.
B) Concentrate on moving forward with one platform so you can decrease support costs overall and get a big fat bonus

The biggest problem I see is that Google is in the process of buying Motorola. The issue is that during such buyouts, there are a lot of movement of people who work there. Usually a lot of instability, layoffs and/or management changes happen during this period. The end result will be that the Atrix 2 will be caught in the shuffle and so I don’t have know if ICS will ever come to this device. Motorola doesn’t even seem to care to address the many bugs as it is with this phone, much less care about ICS.

It all depends on LOE. If the LOE is less than the cost to implement with newer handsets, then it will happen. If the LOE is more than the cost to implement ICS with all new phones, then it will not happen. Look AT&T has 4 different versions of the Iphone that all can run 5 different versions of IOS, and there is not a way to FORCE anyone on an older Iphone to upgrade, becuase there was not OTA until IOS 5.
Support is not a big issue for the carriers, because they really don't support the devices the manufactures do.
You need think way higher than just google and android in this equation and the fact that AT&T still has to support ANY handset (on their network) that has been sold through AT&T or Cingular since 3g rolled out. There are guys at corporate AT&T that still carry the first HTC Tytn phone (the first 3g phone on cingular / AT&T), because it was a beast for the time, and since it is still 3g, and works, AT&T has to provide support for it. Now are there updates from AT&T or HTC, no, but that is why this community is here. Those guys are all running some form of windows mobile 6 on it, so is it the latest, no, does it do the job, yes.
Again ICS might or might not come (at this point the LOE says no, most likely not), I can't spell it out for you any clearer than that or I will no longer have my current customer. I have way more information than I am letting on, that I can not release at this time.
Motorola has issued very few statements about devices that will be on the upgrade path to ICS and the ones that were stated are on Verizen and they havnt even been given a specific date as to when to expect the update.
AT&T has a very good record at getting updated to their devices and doing it in a timely manner compared to the other carriers. Look at the phones on Verizen and tell me how many are up to date and running Gingerbread 2.3.5 or higher, very few. Heck their famed Thunderbolt is still trying to get the Gingerbread update going. The OG Atrix recieved the Gingerbread update before 90% of all other phones had.
Im not confirming nor denying that we will get it but we have a very good chance considering AT&T's track record even though they are being tight lipped about things and I personally think we will. But hey I have been proven to be wrong also
So if Jim says May - mid summer I say that is acceptible in my books. Has anyone seen a PROVEN date as to the other devices yet? NO. We all just have to be patient and see how the events play out. Hope everyone has a good day!

That is exactly what I have been trying to get across, Thanks! I also want to note that the carriers are not the ones that really care about which OS a phone is on or if it is up to date, just that it does not harm their network.
AT&T is really trying to get phones updated as soon as they can, if it is a feasible LOE. And they do have a good track record of doing so.

Is it legit then? - I couldn't find any info about this online.
No update since 01/09/2019 (2.55.401.1) and today, a new firmware => 2.55.401.3. I made a successful update and after restart => 2.55.401.1 from 01/09/2019 ...
No Android 10, 11 => HTC sucks !!! I bought HTC smartphone since QTEK 1010 (2003, near 20 years) and they **** on their customers 2 lasts years...
I will never buy HTC product !
@ShadowTrader: did HTC reply you?
@nenebear : do you happen to know what is chanfged? Security patch level is still at August 2020?
Maybe it is a patch for Log4J vulnerability?
Also, I tried to contact HTC but the first thing they ask on their support website is my phone's IMEI. As soon as I enter it, I'm told my phone is out of warranty and It won't even let me chat with someone
Is it possible they are coming again for smartphone manufacturing? Maybe they are building teams to develop and continue from where they stopped with u12+... That would be cool to see. I'm not expecting any major update for u12+ but I would like to see them to make smartphones again and keep their word like before.
Being using htc since the m7 and that was the best experience I had with any brand I owned so far! Good software and hardware! No one needs updates every month when it is working as expected! And the updates always had some increment in functionality and usability!
But maybe I'm just daydreaming ahaha
