July 23rd ICS update

Over at droid life a couple of users hae stated upon talking to Verizon reps that the ICS holy grail update is being released OTA on Juy 23rd . They stated it was a boot error bug causing connectivity issues . How true this is I have no idea. BUT rest assured I will not be holding my breath .

I hear ya. I'd love to get ICS on my Rezound before the end of the month.

You know, I wish HTC would just put their version out there for us to download and install at our own peril. Especially when they officially provide a guideline, on their website, to unlock your phone. It would be nice, you know? "hey users, we completed ICS about a month ago, and here it is, or you can wait for the one from your carrier with their "bells and whistles""

Oh what a wonderful world it would be.

where on droid life is this posted? I tried to find it and found nothing about a verizon rep saying July 23rd.

Well

27 hours from now we will know if this is more than a rumor.

So, nobody wants to believe that there is an issue with the update until some random guy making a comment on a website says they talked to a CS rep? Even when you talk to reps yourselves and don't believe what they say?

Dorkmaster

The last CS reps I talked to, got rid of their Rezounds, bought the Incredible LTE 4g. They said they personally don't think ICS will be coming to Rezound at all. That is opinion and rumor also.

funny thing is, vzw reps dont have this info

so prepare for disappointment

When you call verizon they give you lip service because they depend on surveys for their job security, same as most jobs.

well... Its July 23rd, and theres no update :smileysad: no big surprise

rivera1305

maybe july 30th? The last monday of july...

Sith77

im starting to WONDER if other web rumor is true that they completely shelved and scrapped the update for the Rezound all together. personally i have business lines changed over already but my family account is still with Verizon. So my aggravation had now switched to depression and acceptance that it will never come . an HTC rep email me back a week or so ago stating that they were looking more at an august release by the time its ready , what ever

demmo86rt

Nothing says it has to be a Monday.

stevolene

well Im giving it till the end of the month, if its a no show then Im off to another carrier, they can sue me over contract, they can have this dinosaur phone back too, nice paper weight

I doubt the release will be within the next few days. My reasoning goes like this. The Rezound is an excellent piece of hardware. That's why I bought it. Great screen resolution, great sound, great dual core processor. Given the proper operating system that utilizes its potential... why would anybody that owns one upgrade to a phone with less. There is a much better profit margin in selling new phones than upgrading great phones.

A few will have it within the next couple of days, and the rest of us Aug 3rd.

Like Sith77

I am not holding my breath. So many dates later, still nothing.

jmurphy914

According to what press release or post from Verizon?

Sent from my Verizon Wireless 4G LTE Smartphone

commonsense101

i keep checking update every 15 mins

still nothing

!!!!

demmo86rt

Even if it is coming today, it won't be until 11:59 PM Eastern time.

rivera1305

Did anyone see the leaked document from androidguy.com with the red font colors stating it would push OTA 07/29-08/02* and avaible for pull 08/01?

jmurphy914

I would not believe it. Its not the first and wont be the last fake or

even real promise that goes by unkept... Instead of telling us the

truth they just shut down the HTC support forum!

commonsense101

i keep checking every hour.. still no update!!

i cant beleive this i want my shiny icons

Rick-In-NC

Maybe it will start rolling out at 23:59 tonight? That would still be in the time frame of June-July. Ah, I know.... they're going to skip ICS and just go for JB. That's why the big delay and they just want to make us all really happy for waiting. It will be like Christmas in... December?

jmurphy914

We all know that within the next 4 hours it will be released, thus

keeping their june-july promise PFFFF ya

Dorkmaster

I am burning the incense now, I am sending you the BAD PHONE CRASH curse. Your phone will crash twice a day, you will have to pull the battery to reset. Comonsense101, just because we don't have lives, does not mean you can mock us...(LOL)

PS. All I want for Christmas is my very own ICS...(LOL)

Does it come in fashionable colors?

If the official OTA matches this software number, then I can tell you it works, just not quite as nicely as I had hoped. They've had this release out for quite some time. Livable, yes. Releasable? Eh... maybe not quite yet.

And Verizon: Installing this leak does NOTHING to void my warranty. I am not <Deleted>, nor do I have S-OFF. I just want to share with the community that this whole delay is disgraceful.
