Listen up pal, lemme help ya a bit.... (To be honest, re-reading your post, and again reading, I can't make heads or tails of what your asking. Will ICS be an available base for Inspire Devs to work with? Is that closer to what your suggesting, or asking?)
When the Inspire was released it was running Froyo, and when GB leaked the Devs with thier almighty wizardry developed a Rom(s) based on GB that could be flashed on rooted phones. Then HTC provided OTA updates for folks not rooted, which in turn gave most (all) Inspire users a Gingerbread based Sense Rom. Now that may not be all perfectly explained, but maybe it will help you to reassess how your question or statement is asked.....
Check this out. Opened a new Tab - Googled Ice Cream Shop Android and there it was.
Google wants ICS rolling out soon to compete with Apple - and it will be an available upgrade for existing smartphone users capable of running 2.3 (or 2.2 don't remember) They want all capable Android devices to be able to integrate with this new OS. SO my bet is this, once it drops those wacky wizards will be all over it - and a rooted user will see it before HTC pushes it out OTA
Edit: Your not grasping this the right way mate, so let me sum it up better. It's not a question (referring to thread title) of is ICS for HTC. ICS is an Android OS, which means its for Android powered devices. HTC, Samsung, Motorola, etc will use ICS for thier newest ANDROID powered devices, following that will probably be the dev versions, then official OTAs will follow - HOPEfully. Damn. That was tough........ ....... ...... .......

Sorry for the confusing question.
In other words, you're saying that all android phones (Running Sense or other OS) will be updated ICS?

I guess what i was trying to say was if i go out when ICS is release and buy a HTC Inspire will the OS be ICS or Sense?

Sense isn't an OS. Its a UI. Sense is built on top of android OS 's like 2.2.1, 2.3.3. The HTC inspire will not be getting ICS. But as an EXAMPLE if it did, the OS would be ICS and sense would be built on top of it as a UI.

Lol, no apology necessary bud, but please don't be offended when I say you really should read a little something or other (Google "What is HTC Sense UI") to better inform yourself about your Phone. One last try bud - here we go. Ready?
Android powers your phone. Sense is a UI (user interface) which allows you to navigate through your phones OS or Operating System. Think of it like this bud - if Google is your car - Sense is the steering wheel. So if you go and buy another Inspire, The O.S. will be Gingerbread, How you will tell the OS what to do next, will be Sense. If that doesn't answer anything - then its someone else's turn...

I was just asking your opinion on this and my battery died. They said ICS would support devices less than a year old. So we know the Devs will get thier hands on it, but it might be in HTCs interest to upgrade as Google is wanting a multi-device compatibility and interaction like iPhone, IPad, etc.... What I hope doesn't happen is HTC holding out an Update solely to encourage upgrading.
Edit: Sounds Promising, Looks and Sounds Stellar, we shall wait and see indeed. SBasham - I re-read my post and wanted to apologize for sounding snarky. Totally didn't mean to be a downer bud!

that's the ICS port's name that cannot be spoken about here
it's like Sauron's ROM or something

I wont post a link to the page, but looking at Kmobs Google+, he posted a few pictures comparing his Sensation and Galaxy Nexus.
-In one picture he shows the 'about phone' screen on both phones. On Sensation, it looks like there is a color gradient, however its hard to tell. So MAYBE they have hardware acceleration working.
-Also if you read the 'mod version' it says CyanogenMod-9.0.0-RC0-Sensation-KANG. I'm a noob and Im not sure if the mod version will tell anything, but it says RC0 so maybe its Release Candidate status?
-One last thing I noticed is he has the same widget running when he compares homescreen, so he is kind or mirroring the two, but the Galaxy Nexus has the camera shortcut on the homescreen and Sensation does not. Not sure if that means its not working on Sensation, or if he just didnt put it there
Mods: if I posted anything I shouldnt have, please feel free to delete the post and contact me. Im familiar to the rules for the most part.

lol. should compare date released and prices for devices. the longer the date the device was released and the cheaper price it is, it should have many devs and support for it. as our devices is quite new (not that new lol) but its like a decisive thing for devs really, if they want to get the sensation and create ports there or just go to the newest device there is on the market. but needless to say, we have plenty of devs here. its just a matter of enjoying whats there and being patient. so, stay on and relax

It seems like developement for the Sensation is slowly dying.Looks like all the good devs have jumped ship to newer phones It's kinda depressing since the phone is only 6 months old.I wish i could afford to buy a new phone every 6 months.

Sadly, but true....

We have a good collection of roms though, and we will be getting ICS regardless from HTC. I don't mind if devs jump ship.

Yeah, TripNiCE ROM is now Alpha 7.5, quite perfect and very stable.
It seems that we could have a stable release (or two if CM9/Kang release something too) till Christmas !

Trip's No-Sense Rom is released [Another 100% working ICS]

Just so everyone knows, Trip is working on two roms, one is AOSP which many won't use due to a non-functioning camera. He's also working on a No-Sense rom with his improvements, I've been following his twitter since last night, and he's pretty close to release.
It'll be posted elsewhere of course, send me a PM if you don't know the forum, but if you're itching to try out another fully functioning ICS rom that's supposedly faster and smoother than the rest, it's coming soon.
Just google "Twitter tripnraver" if you want status updates, I'm not allowed to post links yet.
Edit: It's out (thanks BiziBB), if you're not too lame to check out a Trip rom, use your sweet googling skills to find it.

Mate you shouldn't be mentioning T**P on here, I'm using his ROM but him and XDA don't get on for some reason....please delete this thread.

His ICS is terrible

I didn't read anything about Trip in the rules. Not mentioning a single guy doesn't make a lot of sense. And I don't want to be involved in any internet drama, but your "Sent from" throws his name into every post you make, seems a bit hypocritical to have that.

No, his ICS is awesome, better than so called sense based ics roms. He also removed sense from the leaked rom till he got 121 mb.

Hey Mr.Ignorant
http://infolab.stanford.edu/~burback/watersluice/node45.html
Guess what, his only ICS rom is in beta, which is clearly in his thread so if you don't realize beta has bugs which are listed your an idiot. If you do then your ignorant. It was in beta i think for a week so if your complaining about his alpha go donate him money so he can work harder and if you don't know alpha has ALOT of bugs usually then Google what it means. That's why there is a BETA after alpha and that's not even the final product/step. I have not downloaded it because I personally need some stuff that doesn't work, guess what I do until then? Use something else instead of complaining. Most of these threads have useless comments like YOURS and its hard to search for the info your looking for. So instead of complaining use someone else's rom and thank them or wait for CM9.
Pertaining to the topic yeah he is almost close to releasing, I think he is flashing it and testing it according to his twitter. So we should be close. Hopefully CM9 comes soon so we can compare all these new roms. yayaa =)

His current AOSP beta release is actually hardware accelerated, but some applications aren't running right just yet. If I remember correctly, it's Gmail and Facebook, among others.
His non-sense rom, we don't really know yet. He's from the Netherlands so it can be hard to interpret exactly what he means. We're hoping it is.

We can't link to other forums. Feel free to google it though, shouldn't be hard to find.

Actually Trip has had HW partially functioning for some time, I was following his work and he managed to activate 2D accel by repairing the Hardware composers; at this time he didn't fix all renders, but he activated the ICS gradient(means that 2D/3D accel is on, and you can see it in menus w/ blacks and such). Now I don't know about others devs, but I can't say that others have had the GPU working before the Sense Leak was even out. He came very far on his port, and I was happy that he publicly released each alpha regardless of stability.

Based on feedback from the thread, it seems like his new senseless release has some features working that the AOSP doesn't, but the AOSP is still much faster. One person in the thread said that once the kinks of the AOSP build are worked out, it will basically make this senseless release obsolete.
That seems to be the difference between Trip's AOSP build and everything we have on here-ROMs that are merely stripped of sense can't match his for speed.

and about whether 9003 will get it or not, only time will tell.

On www.gsmarena.com just 1 day ago samsung has officially decleared that no value pack update will be given to galaxy s. So forget about ICS

It's sad we aren't getting ICS, but the phone runs much nicer than it did under Froyo, so it's not like they're leaving us with a half-baked product.

It's not ICS, it's a GB update but with some adds.

I must admit that ICS is really superb but problem is samsung nexus has that kind of powerful hardware 1.2 ghz with dual core processor, 1gb ram. We even dont have half of it. Already our 2.3.6 firmwares run with little lag then from this u can imagine how device will perform with ICS (Super duper laggy).
Instead of this we must concentrate on cm7 & miui. Really these two roms are superbly awsome. It will really fulfill all our requirements.

Once apps started requiring 4.0 compatibility, we will NEED ICS. In the upgrade to Honeycomb we didn't feel it that much since it is specifically for tablets. If apps begin to require Fragments (not present in 2.3 and below) and other 3.x and 4.x stuff we will be stuck. Its not just all visual eyecandy folks.

It'll be years away, and chances are you'll start having problems with the hardware, dropped it, ran out of warranty, new contract etc before lack of ICS becomes a major issue.
Why am i making excuses for Samsung? Beats me.

What we NEED is a completely bug free 2.3.7 GB and Samsung source lib files..

you took words from my mouth Still we have some issues like sync issue, lag issue, vdo calling etc. I will not blame people that they are getting attracted to ICS becoz definitely ICS is very attractive. But even if we dont get ICS it will not make much difference. Instead of that I will prefer small ICS value pack update as per capability of mobile. Phone's actual performance can be identified only then & then when u install lots apps & do some multitasking with 3 to 4 apps open. Because whenever u install fresh rom then it has no background loading apps. So thats why it runs smoothly.
Regarding compatibility of app, if u observe carefully then 90% major apps are compatable to 2.1+ onwards versions of android and in future also same thing will continue by app developers.

He's not, he's asking to speculate. Or is that not allowed either?
I personally can't wait for CM9. I'm running Virtuous Quattro on my Desire HD at the moment, but was on CM7.1 for a long time before that. Hoping it will see the light of day before the end of Feb, but I have no idea how optimistic that might be!

An integrated contacts app that allows you to go to contacts and start typing a name and it will automatically search without hitting the search button would be nice.
I have 450+ contacts and it's a pain in the a$$ to scroll through and almost always have to manually search.
IDK if this already a feature but also like to see the camera unlock be integrated to use either front or back cameras for facial recognition.

CM9 seems pretty legit for me... we have a port for the captivate and it runs amazing ....having ICS on older devices is pretty awesome ....whatever CM brings to the table is always good stable and fast
I'm running a pure AOSP port of the galaxy nexus at the moment and I have no issues what's so ever...
Just hope your device has the right devs and anything is possible

Moore's Law is now biting us in the rear.

The blog post on the CM site pretty reinforced what I thought was happening and why development has been a bit slow. 4.0 was designed to be very different from 2.x, but I am sure that the team will knock out some stable releases soon enough.
