Kinda figured this would happen. Now if HTC was a decent company they would still release their source...but we all know they wont.
Im not all expecting to see an official release but that site is about the most vague pile of crap ever. I cant help but doubt the validity of anything posted there.

So you needed an unknown site to tell you this? You couldn't take the hints over the months with delay after delay?

I never really expected this to happen after observing all the work from the devs on it. ICS has always ran kinda wishy washy for me. I mean it works and all, but there are definitely some performance issues and bugs no matter which rom you use. Verizon nor HTC intends to release a shoddy product. It either has to work 100% or not at all. If ICS cant run as well as GB did, then it aint gonna happen.
I wish I had a dollar for all the false rumors that have been posted about ICS, I'd buy Verizon and have enough left over to keep me in booze and hookers for the rest of my life!
I think this is one more dollar in my stash....

If that were the case though, the thunderbolt would've ran well from launch day, which anyone who had one since then will say that it didn't. Originally the battery life was horrendous and had to be fixed by an OTA.

NO ICS
just called HTC ,,, and they told me , that we are not getting ics,,, htc thunderbolt is discontinued,,,, :crying:
We could call and email different reps at HTC and we would get a slew of different responses from them all. Stuff like this no one will know the correct answer as tech support as we all know is the last to know.
Sent from my ThunderBolt using Tapatalk 2
So let's see if I understand this... the OFFICIAL WORD from Verizon AND from HTC is that the Thunderbolt will or will not get ICS and will get it within the next two days or later than that or never.
Does that about cover it? <G>
Honestly, I don't see what all the flap is about? ICS doesn't offer anything I need or want other than (I HOPE!) a better kernel for the Devs to work with.
Meanwhile, NuSense works for me and the BAMF leak works for me if I want ICS and, if I want Gingerbread, Infected ROM works for me and Thunderstick BB works for me along with a bunch of other ROMs I've tried.
Was at Verizon today, Reps informed me there will be no ICS for our phones...Cant say I'm surprised...my upgrade is in January, not going to worry about it .. Can't believe they state we would get the upgrade, then renege ..
If Apple can upgrade their older model Iphones for several years , why can' t our Android phones do the same.. and no I'm not switching..

I've owned every device T-Mobile has to offer and for such a powerhouse not to have any backing was a deal breaker for me. I went back to the Nexus S and now I have the Sensation. I'm staying with HTC until the new Nexus launches.
How do you guys feel about LG & T-Mobile now after petitioning and emailing them? They are basically not looking to improve the device. The G2x may be a epic fail. I enjoyed it while I had it but it clearly lacks support.
I havent seen any issues on my Sensations behalf. I think that unless you have tested it or owned one you can't go by hear say. The issues people addressed as far as the G2x only some have experienced but those who have them might want to make the jump while the G2x still holds some value.

Don't have that issue. I had 5 g2x before I called it quits. Im glad u have a proper working one though.
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using XDA Premium App
Oh but listen to what your saying. You have exchanged the G2X 5 times and you still have the same issues? That means it is not going to magically get fixed by doing even more exchanges. The reason they stopped doing exchanges is because they know the phone has problems on ALL the phones and until it gets updated it wont do any good to swap it out for another. Makes sense to me. I understand switching it for a sensation if you cant handle the issues but I completely understand why tmobile is doing this. Makes sense to me. Personally I chose this phone because I knew it would be supported by cyannogen and im pretty happy I went that route rather than the sensation because who knows how long it will take to get updates for that. I have absolutely no issues except a little screen bleed. Obviously the nexus phones are going to get support first and then followed by any phone supported by CM. This phone is already leaps and bounds better than the sensation when you consider the custom rom community.
HOWEVER... I will say that t-mobile AND LG need to speak up and let us know what is going on. Admitting they have issues is ok as long as they are working to fix it but leaving us in the dark is kinda crappy.
Frankly this is still an unconfirmed newsletter. Hopefully well see something about this soon
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA App
Leaving anyone in the dark is not cool. Announce something. Email Twitter fb whatever. Of course the g2x is ahead in Roms the Sensation isn't even a month old. It took 2 months to get a rom for it and it was great. When the Sensation gets s off it will be a monster more than what it is now. I liked the g2x don't get me wrong but somethings I couldn't ignore and for someone who pays full price for phones I don't think it was worth my money. The Sensation feels more of a solid device
And also people have reported that some exchanges for a device have solved most of their issues. Some just chose to deal with it.

If they did not cancel the update, will everyone just calm down and wait for the fix. If the GB update does not fix the issues, I will be right next to you banging on Tmo doors.

I was under the impression the the update would contain more than just GB. It has been rumored to contain better drivers and other fixes as well. Hopefully we will know before September.
You people need to understand something: this phone does NOT need a gB update nor did tmo ever say that this mysterious update was going to be gb. What we are waiting for is a FIRMWARE update from LG, distributed through tmo. This what the Rep who told me they were pulling the g2x, ( which they temp. did a few weeks later) said. He told me the firmware update would be first, then if all goes well they MAYBE will release gb for us. Yeah could be BS, but he's been right so far.

Actually t-mobile and LG both promised updates to Gingerbread claiming it would be right after initial release. T-mobile claimed before summer. LG boasted how they decided to leave it stock android in specifically so they would be able to quickly update the device right after release. Its not been quite a while and I am pretty sure they should have had at least something by now.
Man this whole thing with LG/ tmo giving us totally different versions/BS promises with every Rep is just BS. I hate to say it but IMO the only thing that's gonna make these corporate douchbags give us the truth is through a class action lawsuit. This is just so uncooked of them to play this game. I personally hope my Guy is right ... first firmware update, then gb, or maybe released together in a single update....I'm dreaming I know :/

As a previous owner of the fascinate, I am definitely with you guys on the anti-Samsung bandwagon. The thing that has changed my mind is that Samsung has said that the sgs2 is practically made for Ice Cream Sandwich. That gives me hope that they will be updating it relatively quickly once ICS is released.
Also, the fact that they gave the sgs2 to some of the CM devs makes me think they are more consumer focused than they were the first go 'round.

It's also the first and only android phone with a completely open sourced linux kernel (no linked binary blobs for drivers in it).

The 2.3.5 leaks are pretty good but I get it. Lack of sources is a *****. Entropy fixed wifi on his kernel but no HDMI is annoying. I am on the fence with what to spend my time with. I might abandon simply honey as there are bug I have no hope of fixing and my even after disabling the battery full notification it still causes a bug where I need to reboot the phone to mount the SD after a full charge.
Its either work on that or work on ucki3/4 and I'm leaning towards ucki3 over simply honey right now.
Yeah it's a joke that official gingerbread isn't out yet. Guess we are really lucky to have the roms we do. Infused 1.6 is excellent. Will be sad when all the devs leave for gs2!!

As someone who owns both, I would recommend you stick it out and wait for the magic of an unlocked bootloader and custom ROMs to unlock the full potential of this phone and its dual-core CPU.
Compared to my Inspire, the battery life, lighter weight, better call quality, better antenna, and what seems to be crisper screen make my move from one to the other worth it.
I came from an Inspire, don't trade for it.... I love HTC phones, but I had a ton of oddities, with it.
There are a ton of things that can be done with out an unlocked bootloader, even ROMs, this phone has only been out a little over 60 days, hang tight there will be a ton of great things for this phone.
If you must trade for a mid line phone think about a used sgs, or an Infuse. If you really want a TOP end then go for an unlocked galaxy nexus.
Otherwise hang tight, and use bloat freezer, for the bloat on this phone, it is not bad for a stock build. If you don't like Blur, go get ADW launcher or Go Launcher Pro, or something like that.

Don't do it.
I can't say that I'm jumping ship, but since my Atrix 2 is stuck in a bootloop and probably will be until the bootloader gets unlocked, I just ordered an Inspire from GreenCells to get me by in the meantime. As soon as the Atrix gets unf*cked though, you can bet I'll be switching back.
I've had so many f**king problems with this thing it insane. I've exchanged this phone 3 times at best buy cause of the same problems and once w/ AT&T. I don't know if I can deal with the same problems again. Such as screen scrambling "like snow on a TV" also random reboots, just to name a few. there are a lot more things I'm having go wrong.

Instead of choosing the inspire and you don't like the ATRIX 2 then see if they'll exchange for the sgs2. I had a nexus s they exchanged for the ATRIX 2. It could happen....maybe.....

I have a question... I have a Stock Atrix2, its doing all kinds of Crazy stuff, Im pissed off now, they announce a fix for the verizon Droid Slopzor, its been out 15th the time Atrx 2 is out. Its also suffering from many of the same things. I think the Atrix 2 should have been fixed or both at the same time.
Question: Does XDA have a Native Mail app similar to what Motorolas Native app can do, has a select all, and undo tab, dumping trash is a pleasure or in any folder..one click your done.?
I have an inspire I will trade right now I also have an atrix 1 love it been wanting a atrix 2

I had the Inspire. Except for the crappy battery life, it was a decent phone.

Have you tried a battery pull? Sometimes it works.

they may offer you another atrix 2. i wouldnt hesitate to do it if they dont give you a different phone. lemons do happen although very rare but it does happen.

Unless you got your phone online or over the phone, they aren't going to send you another phone, let alone an upgrade. If you got the Atrix 2 from a store, you're going to have to take it back to the store. If you've had the phone for more than a month, they will tell you to call warranty exchange to get a refurbished replacement, but not before spending copious amounts of time troubleshooting first. If you have been with AT&T for a long time, without any shutoffs, or a late payment history, you can try the "I'll cancel my service" routine, which usually doesn't work, because you will still have pay an ETF. Basically, they own you until your contract expires. It sucks, but that's how AT&T rolls.

Be happy we're getting ICS. This is a year and a half old phone.
The only reason apple updates for so long is because it has literally like 6 devices to update. HTC has like 30+, all with diffrerent RIL, screen sizes, ram, processors, and carriers.
The CyanoogenMod developers don't work for you, don't expect anything from them.
I'm cool with just getting ICS

Android 4.1 is a stupid simple update from ICS. It isn't all that different and a lot of stuff will carry over. The developer's well get 4.1 running as soon as they can, if they can. The reason we don't have ICS is because we don't have a RIL yet. That should come with the first ICS leak.
If Apple's release schedule is superior then I think it's time for you to go buy an iPhone.The dev's are already pretty stressed out about this, and they do all their work for free. You honestly don't have the right to demand anything.
If you want the latest updates immediately after they come out, you should have bought a Nexus device.
Also, Cyanogenmod isn't the only AOSP build out there, and there are many better ones. I'd research into most of them, since the active CM developers for the Tbolt are working with 7, not 9(which is ICS based) it could be a while.
I also hope that your american comment was not serious, but it doesn't matter. The damage is done. Attitudes like that are the reason that a lot of other nations look down on the US and consider the citizen's ignorant and stupid.
Cant wait for 4.1 for my SGS2

what i am saying is that it is stupid how long it takes from the time google/moto releases the code to it gets to us on our phones. Even the sprint nexus s took over 6 months to get out.... why cant it be quick like apple is all i am saying since they too have many devices to support fromt he 3gs, 4, 4s and soon the 5.
and when the world has a problem who do they call? THE USA! True Power is not given... It is TAKEN.... J.R. Ewing
The thunderbolt is an older device now, it has a single core CPU and there are now phones that are quadcore with better screens and hardware. If you don't like the selection of roms our developers have made available to us, like you said, you're an American, you have the free choice to get another phone or learn to port jellybean to the bolt yourself.

Because I feel jellybean is easily installed as it is only a dot release so we are intitled to it.
Sent from my ADR6400L using xda premium
We wont see an official release of that and the only way we will is through development. Im honestly surprised that the phone manufacturers are even updating the thunderbolt and some of the others to ics. People aren't going to go out and buy a thunderbolt because it has ics. Theyre going to buy the new badass phone with a gazillion freaking cores in it that all dont even operate most of the time.

You are entitled to nothing more than the way the phone was when you bought it.

so let me make sure I understand this right. ICS is only on about 7% of the devices on the planet but you are crying and *****ing about a version of android that isnt even out yet not on a year and a half old device. i refuse to acknowledge all the other ignorant stuff you said because this was enough.
do the board a favor and next time you want to say something.... dont.

Google_Nexus is obviously trolling, only saying these things to piss people off for the "fun" of it. Replying only provokes it and is what he wants. This thread should be closed.
