Verizon Statement on Froyo

Anyone else thinking its not going to happen?
They just started the iPhone hype so I'm pretty sure nearly all of their resources are going toward that.
AT&T will probably have an official statement first...

You honestly think that the iPhone release will take out all of their resources that they can't make a statement about the release or status of the update? Pondering things like these leads nowhere, that has become more than evident with all of these froyo threads. They are full of speculation and made up conspiracies because people are so absorbed by the thought of companies withholding froyo from them. Enjoy your phone, rom it and change things to your liking...when we get froyo, we get froyo. I really dont understand why people need to make endless threads about this.

They should make some sort of filter that prevents you from posting if Froyo is in the title... or heavy moderation, this is getting ridiculous.

This was a major let down! As the title states, I was expecting to read a public announcement on the update from Verizon. Total waste of time.

Wow I really thought they released a statement... smh at the owner of this topic

I dont really post much, but I must get this out, WTF is up with BOTH samsung and verizon.
Verizon isn't just the one accountable for it, Samsung is as well,they are slow on updates.
LG just released the 2.2 froyo update for possibly the worst phone ever made the LG Ally.
The other thing I'm not getting is why the development is slow for the fascinate, are people just not that interested in the phone as other phone's ? No disrespect for the developers. I'm just stating that other phones have had 2.2 for a LONG time and the fascinate is just barely getting into 2.2 development.
Dont tell me its because GSM and CDMA are different. Honestly I have ported GSM to CDMA android phones just fine, yes it takes some time. Right now im currently looking into how the samsung is all set up so I can take a shot at some things..
end rant...

I believe your talking about porting a rom from a GSM phone to a cdma phone.... what's up with the fascinate is way more then that.....

Anybody who starts yet another of these complaint/conspiracy threads should be auto-banned.

most threads say that the update will be released about the 20th of June. I was really surprised that the evo 4g had the Gb release before the Evo 3d came out. I think that the reason the Evo 4g is not getting sense update to atleast 2.x is that sprint wants them to get the newer shift (sense 2.x) or the newer evo 3d with 3.x sense. I wish our GB had TW 4 in it. I have used the leaked TW 4 and like it but wish the widgets for feeds work as i cant find any other replacement feeds that are somewhat like it. The ones for fb and tweeter are too small.... any ideas...

Sprint has told me many things... And I believe that the person telling me believed they were being truthful. Just in the past 2 weeks:
* The Airave does not use the internet for voice calls. It connects to towers in your area. The internet connection and GPS are for location purposes only.
* We will credit you $25 for next month and the month after if you upgrade your phones this weekend. I will call you 4:30p on Tuesday to confirm. No call.
* I do see in your notes that we agreed to credit you $50 if you upgraded two phones but only one time. There is no way we can credit you another $50. (we go back and forth). Ok, I'll give you a credit now and another credit for next month. Do you want an email confirmation? Hell Yes! No email received
The Sprint guy probably doesn't know the difference between the Evo and the Epic. They both start with "e" afterall...

Is it April 1st again?

Can New EVO's be Rooted Still?

Seriously considering going back from the 3d to the original EVO as the new one...mine at least, simply has too many problems that get in the way of actually doing work on the thing.
Can a new off the shelf EVO with the current software build still be rooted?
I did search but didn't find an answer to this specific question so any help would be greatly appreciated.,

If it has 2.3.3 and the radio is s-on you're out of luck....for now.

I call BS on that claim. What terms did you search for? I've come across multiple "I just replaced my phone because the screen broke/my dog chewed it/I went deep sea diving with it. Is it rootable?" posts without even trying to find them.

i am amazed and surprised it was not rooted within 1 week of the release.

quite funny on how you did a search, this Topic is plastered all over xda and android central about not being able to root with a 2.3.3
On the other hand, i've heard plenty of rumors that they 2.3.3 was recalled and they are not updating now.. which sucks because I got mine with a 2.3.3 and hate not being rooted

But will HTC really unlock the 4G now that the 3D is out? I've not been able to find anything anywhere that specifically states that the 4G will be unlocked in the future. I'm pestering them on Facebook and so far they've refused to say that they have any intentions of unlocking the bootloader.

i doubt htc will unlock evo 4g. this will have to be done by devs.
htc said they will try to unlock future phones... not past phones.
it started with evo3d & sensation.
locked htc botloader is not new... evo 4g has always had it...this new one must have some type of new security.

It is too bad that they can't put the previous bootloader back on the phone through an update or something. At least that could be worked through.

With the OG Evo being systematically phased out, the reasons to continue working on Rooting 2.3.3 are less and less every day. If people don't whine and ***** (hopefully respectfully- or at least somewhat respectfully) that they want root access they really will stop working on it.

Ohhhh the irony!!!! The Desire HD/Z were the devices that launched their htcsense.com service, a service that could backup all of the personal data on your phone into the cloud. Earlier this year they shut said service down and this has resulted in the death of the ICS update. They were born together and they died together. Very poetic or something...

I love HTC's hardware and design, but they screwing up the software side more and more. Can't they just release a 3.0 kernel for DHD for developers? I mean they're multi-billion dollar companies and can't even spend a few thousands to develop a 3.0 kernel? We have developers doing the same thing in their free time here . . .
I wouldn't have been this sour if they didn't say "We will release ICS for DHD next year" and went "Oh no, we won't, why? Because **** you that's why.". My next phone will be a Google phone and it will probably come from Samsung.

Bye bye HTC. Nothing more to say.

this is not explanation!
Atleast they can STILL PROVIDE UPDATE
because No one is FORCING U TO UPDATE if u fear to lost the data....
some people dont care about that so just give the update, those ho fear to lose some data, no one is forcing them to update if they fear!!!

Just hand it out to the devs, HTC...

How about they do it like samsung or iPhone via a computer where u can back up all u data and install what ever ics they provide and restore back u data? It's just a lame excuse from them not to do it. Probably its full of bugs and all dhd newer then a year will be returned. My 2 cents

I personally think the main reason this has happened to HTC is because of the whole Beats crap. Before HTC had an image of well built technically advanced handsets and focusing on the whole Sense thing. Over the last year and a bit this has turned into Beats by Dr Dre and all that kind of nonsense.

Chill guys, put down the pitchforks. We just need source for the Desire S or Incredible S and then it'll be fully working.

"Fitting all that Ice Cream Sandwich into the Desire HD would require repartitioning the internal space, and repartitioning risks overwriting personal content"
I think HTC forgot that we have something call the micoSD card...:silly:
With most apps, photos, videos, personal data can be backup to the micoSD card, how "much" personal content will we risk to lose?
well play HTC well play :good:

If you promise me you'll buy me a car and you don't but I manage to build one by myself, should I just say ok no problem?? It's a stupid example, but they said they would release it, so they had to release it.
I personally won't buy anymorew from htc, unless they do something awesome, and they haven't been doing it for the last year, so I have little hope....
