Soooooo, ever since the release of the nexus galaxy sporting the new adroid 4.0, i wondered, will we get the update, and if not, is there a way to replicate the look of the deivice theme wise,i love the way it looks!
HTC has not confirmed nor denied the Inspire will be getting ICS. I'd bet not, and if we do it will take a LONG time, or one of the devs here will port it.
In the mean time, if you head over to the Android Development and Hacking section, and check out the Android Themes sub-forum there are a lot of different launchers and themes with ICS flavoring.

I agree with him on the themes portion. There are MANY themes that are ICS, and many of them work well, and look VERY smooth.
Concerning ICS and the HTC Inspire. Looking at the specifications of the Galaxy Nexus, the Inspire has the internal components that can handle ICS. The processor for the Inspire is faster than the Galaxy, and so on. The only difference between the two is that the Inspire has dedicated soft keys on the home screen, whereas the Galaxy Nexus will have the home screen buttons as part of ICS itself.
Also, after talking to HTC, they're currently looking into how they can roll out ICS updates for as many phones as possible. I also read somewhere that most of, if not all, 2.3 phones WILL receive the update. Until then, continue looking at the forums and wait until a recognized developer ports to Inspire. Hope this helps!

Not sure where you got your information from but this isn't even close to be correct.
But, I'm sure we will see ICS on the Inspire fairly soon after Google releases the source. Whether its from the CM team or a different dev.

I wish all we had to worry abut was when HTC was gonna release it but we have to wait for ATT as it will be them that finally releases an official release for our phones. It may not happen and we will have to use a port from the DHD which only has to wait for the HTC
thank yoiu alll! and i didnt know we could go to the general android theme section and use themes from there lol, i thought we had to use the themes in our designated section only

That's a bummer. I've got 2 years before I can upgrade again. Its going to be a long wait.
Well they're already working on a port for the dhd, but I've heard that it doesn't work on the inspire but there's still a very good chance that we'll get sometime in the near future.

I do lol there are issues with cm roms that prevent me from using it as a daily. But if we don't get it then ill just have to wait lol
Biggest problem with CM Roms is battery. Only thing I miss about sense Roms is not having to charge halfway through the day.

SK4G is unsupported both by devs and Samsung. Aren't you guys still stuck with Froyo or something? Either way even if you get GB you'll never see anything past GB unless you get CM9, which is highly unlikely.
MT4G has awesome Sense ROM's, a solid MIUI ROM, and a very stable CM7 ROM with CM9 looking within weeks.

What he said
I actually traded my sk4g for a Mytouch and its completely with it. Yes a keyboard its nice but there's no development, and the Mytouch has a bigger screen and typing/swyping is a lot easier that on the sidekick screen.

Getting a Mytouch 4G for a Sidekick 4G is like getting an Audi for Kia (I don't specifically have anything against Kia, but I doubt anyone will argue that a Kia is a better car than an Audi). Don't ask questions. TRADE! Trade and run before your friend realizes their mistake.
I played with a Sidekick 4G for a few minutes and it was a joke. Minus a physical keyboard a Mytouch 4G is better in every way.

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.

Ok I haven't exactly found an answer for this so I'm asking. First Why do people say we won't get a fully functional ICS/JB Rom port if HTC doesn't give us ICS?
The reason I would like to know this is merely because I have a Samsung captivate, it has ICS(fully functional), and Samsung never released ICS for it. I know that its different hardware and manufacturer, but wouldn't the same concept apply to all devices?
If not please explain why the same concept doesn't apply here.
Thanks.

There are some really great ics roms out here and desirehd forum. They just have very minor issues which don't bother me at all. The issue here I noticed is that no matter what the devs give is the users will never be satified and will always complain about something whether this or that or not getting this or that. As far as I'm concerned I have a fully functional ics rom thanks to LC and Exists( hope its spell correctly)lol and a few other devs here.

It doesn't apply here because its hardware is 90% the same as the nexus s and that got ICS source a long time ago. We don't have a similar nexus device like that so it is more difficult .

I was wondering if someone could compile a cm9 version (with the permission of the developer that is)
I really like this ROM but its not being updated, and I'm unsure how to get the camera working in it.
I hope its not asking a lot or interfering with any regulations by asking this. I would ask and do this myself but I am still new to some of this so I have a lot more learning to do.
Thanks for your time, and for reading.

Why not have it based on Jelly Bean? The main camera IS working in bruce's builds. ICS seems so yesterday and counter to the groundbreaking cutting-edge nature of Paranoid Android. But then again I laugh and scoff when I see a Sense 3.6 ROM posted. I'd be a lot less interested in Paranoid Android if it was based on CM9 instead of CMX

I agree with you. Cm9 seems cool, but outdated by JB. If I had instructions on how to do it, it would be a great task for me. I work, so doing this would be on my spare time but it is better than nothing don't you think? I also think that having more than one person would be a lot less of a hussle. But that is just my opinion.
With that said, If anyone is willing to work with me, I would greatly appreciate it. I don't know much, but hey, we all need a new experience

Also if you look at the Official Paranoid Android guide to porting:

Using CM9 you'd be working with a VERRRY old 1.5 Paranoid Android Codebase.
1.6+ (They're on v 1.99 currently) requires JB.
If the OP for the Sensation port could publish his how-to on how he ported it, there are SEVERAL of us in the community that are willing to help maintain this ROM going forward.
Ah Ok. I just assumed you could port it back but rid of all the buggs I love that browser and bottom status bar.

Yeah Phablet mode and Tablet mode are game changers. I'm really surprised there hasn't been more interest by Sensation CMX devs putting this into their ROM. It would be really cool if the Dargun ROM incorporated this, but that's just wishful thinking on my part
