No "official" ICS ! - HTC Inspire 4G

http://www.htc.com/www/help/android4faq/?cid=android4blog
No more wondering about ICS, Desire HD is going to get it !
Oddly enough verizons variant the thunderbolt is getting it as well, but no love from ATT. Doesn't look like the inspire will get an official update. Thanks ATT for shafting the customers .
Oh well, I guess this is why we have XDA to port that over.

O nooo way We all didn't know that lol..about the inspire dang it man..this will be closed

The Thunderbolt is not a variant of the Inspire/DesireHD. And this info has been known for 6 months.

Wonder how many more threads will be opened stating old info lmao

OMG!!! Did you hear! The inspire wont be getting ICS officially!! but the desire HD is!

HTC already announced months ago that the Inspire 4G isn't getting the official ICS update .-.

Agreed. This has been a well known fact for a long time. If you want updates after 4 months dont by ATT branded phones. Its that simple.

Soon To Be MyTouch 4G Owner: Where Should I Start The Hacking

I will be receiving my new mytouch 4g this thurs. I have been bouncing around with different phones in the past two months. My last three phones were the G2, Nexus S, and most recently the Inspire.
What can I expect coming to this side? What are the most sought after roms kernels? The phone im getting is already rooted with s off and all that so I guess the easy part is done :+}

I give all my phones a trial period. Its pretty much when im done hacking till I cant hack no more or till I get simply bored. But I always wanted to try a a mytouch but never got around to it.

Didn't see that you were already rooted! In that case, TeamRoyal and Faux pretty much own the MT4G dev section. So anything from them is good, and of course the good ol CM7.

I see. Team Royal has 90% of the roms. I guess I will have a busy day when it comes. I think I downloaded 8 roms. Lol

CM7 > all other ROMs.
RoyalMint is my daily driver since it came out. Team Royal specifically Option94 has been really working hard on it. Not saying they dont work hard on any other of their ROMs.

4 months now it's a great phone, I have no regrets
thou I think that the inspire is a good phone, I think with all the new dual core phones that are being released I would not waste an upgrade on this particular phone. I do like this HTC Inspire but still is old tech.
Really? Another opinion thread on the Inspire? How many do we need this week? This is not the section to ask questions also. Can we please clean this forum up starting with threads like this first?

Wow really it is too bad that it bothers you so much this is the General section I do believe and since it is "General Discussion about the AT&T HTC Inspire 4G (general chat, tips & tricks, etc)
Guess this is the right place for it.
Yes the threads will be getting cleaned up. This weekend most likely if I can find the time. As for opinion threads if there is more then one thread on the same subject they will be combined. We have a off topic thread for things like this.
Happy to have you back up there zelendel despite pushing your buttons before.

Compared the the Craptivate this phone is one hell of an upgrade. However as stated before, wait for the HTC Holiday/Inspire HD.

i have gone back to using the atrix as my daily for now, because it finally has CM7 on it. but only because i want to work on my rom on the inspire
The Atrix was a nice phone I just think the inspire looks better and is easier to root/flash

I want the Atrix just because I'm always wanting something other than what I have. The inspire is the best phone I've ever owned though.

Ics update

So I saw an article on tmonews stating htc will update the sensation and the amaze 4G in the beginning of 2012. what I wonder is how the hell they updating a device that came last like the amaze 4G and not the mytouch slide that came out way before? Smh yea it will get updated but not in the time it should. Watch us get an update really late on mid 2012.

I was on the fence regarding rooting for about a week. The phone was just boring after while. ICS will be nice to see when it makes it to us.

Yeah but here is the thing...what will HTC add with ICS...remember in all actuallity the OEM system is now Gingerbread but mysense added to it...your user expirience is the redheaded T-mo branded version of sense (which I hate compared to the real one) So is HTC going to release ICS with sense 3.5 or will it be like the phones released early next year with sense 4.0? So yeah while we will have probally Cyanogen 8 and maybe ICS AOSP I can't wait to see a ROM that is ICS with Sense....
I work for HTC. We haven't finished announcing what devices will receive ICS.

Well I seen a story posted on the web by AndroidCore about the HTC devices and the Doubleshot was not on it...but one question was since t-mobile branded it from HTC wonder if it would be up to T-mo....there should be no reason the doubleshot would get overlooked it is a new device now...
Well looks like it was front page here...
http://www.xda-developers.com/android/htc-announces-which-devices-get-ice-cream-sandwich/
The decision is a combination of HTC and T-Mobile. More importantly, you should simply focus on the fact we aren't finished announcing devices that will receive the ICS upgrade.

Uh wut? Nexus ICS alphas have been floating around for weeks.
The evo is always going to have more roms available at any given time, since there's a ton of devs working on that phone... And more options because of Sense.
First of all the things we have are sdk ports so they don't count. Second I would rather have a rom with half busted stuff than nothing like we do now. Wahh it sucks.

I don't think that someone has a decent working ICS right now.
But come on, don't start a ton of new threads just to aks why there's no ics. I know it's exciting but after all it's just ICS xD
And it's just a max. of 1 month waiting time 'till the ota gets out. I would go so far to say that no one of us will die from waiting
Max one month is a huge overstatement. It will be a miracle on xda street if we get an ota in a month. Mark my words.

Petition: Htc ics for inspire 4g

Given the fact that HTC has announced that Desire HD is getting ICS, do you feel pissed that the Inspire 4g is not on their list for ICS considering they are the SAME PHONE! Thanks a lot AT&T and HTC for ignoring us Inspire 4g users. This is getting ridiculous.

You are on a development site where most users are here looking for modifications to their phone. Even IF att were to release an OTA of ics for our phones, it likely would be as broken as the GB update was. no thank you.
No 'senior members dont get butt hurt' over posts like these. its people that feel the need to use XDA as their person venting blog when it is primarily a development site. if you are unhappy with how att does business, don't buy their phones, they have done this practice since the beginning. nothing new to see here. If your next phone you buy is from ATT, then you will understand why they EOL it so fast, because users upgrade as soon as they can. why support a line of phones forever when people only keep them till they can upgrade anyways. My Inspire runs ICS, and it runs it quite well. Glad I cant get OTA updates anymore.

Its not HTC it is AT&T that will not update it but that is due to the companies support policy.
Now as for the comment about people getting butthurt. As stated above this is a development site. Not a Rom user based site, so yes some people get tired of others not following the rules and opening new threads about things that have been answered 100 times already.
In the US the OEM have 0 control over the updates that a phone gets. It is all the carriers that control this. As stated above if you dont like the way they handle it then do what alot of us do. Suck it up and pay full price for the Euro version of the phone.
Also dont spam the forum with posting more then one thread about the same thing. I deleted the other one
