I just read that someone from Verizon (not sure if it was a verified they work for Verizon or not) said that ICS will be released on the Rezound on May 9th. Can anyone confirm that this is true or false?

That's the same leak the OP was referring to. For whatever reason, a lot of sources just picked this up yesterday.

I'm sure it will be the same as the leaked build, though hopefully with the kinks worked out.

On another note, an ICS build for the RAZR was leaked that seems to fit in line with that screenshot: Ice Cream Sandwich build 6.14.84 leaks for Droid RAZR/RAZR MAXX http://phandroid.com/?p=93261

another leak was released in the last few days...supposedly this is the one that will be pushed out in a couple of days (works great so far) hopefully we will see this forum light up Wednesday with people who received the official OTA update. read on other forums that HTC themselves confirmed the software would be pushed out beginning 05/09/2012 and may continue as long as 22 days. Another rumor or truth, we shall see!

And a third leak popped up today. Haven't read up on it much yet, but it appears to be utilizing an updated kernel, which was a complaint from many about the first leak.

Yeah, I'm running the second leak, and every thing seems very smooth, if they've made even more improvements, this will be quite a nice upgrade.

Well I gave in and installed leak #3...so far pretty good. There seems to be a little better response time/less lag (not that there was much of a problem before). When the phone came back to the home screen after setup, the personalize icon was in the bottom toolbar other than other icons this time but other than that, not many more differences. Speed test are producing about the same speeds and everything else seems to be working as expected.

Still having a problem disabling Google Books though...I disable it thru apps but comes back each time you reboot. I have to go into the internal memory thru a PC connections and delete it in order to get rid of it.

If this is the one that VZW releases, think everyone is going to be very pleased!

If you S-off, you can go back to stock GB or even earlier if you wish. In order to get the OTA, you may have to go back to stock GB anyway or you will probably have to wait for a OTA update to be posted online.

I doubt you will have to downgrade, as long as your build number is lower, it should take. But regardless, that has nothing to do with this discussion.

Ummmm, it kind of does. ajnevares1 mentioned in THIS discussion that he was unable to go back to stock. I was mentioning that there IS a way to go back to stock. And since this discussion is about the possible release of ICS on May 9th, I was jsut offering my experience with EVERY OTHER device I have owned and that you need to be on the stock previous release in order to update.

But thank you for your helpful reply to my post. I will keep it in mind.....

Because it could still be relevant for him and others to take the OTA update. Sorry I'm late to the party, but I just thought that I had something useful to add. I guess I was sadly mistaken. Feel free to administer this discussion as you see fit...

I've waiting for the update just like most of you. I've had my rezound for about 2 weeks. I'm hearing stuff about the first leak and second leak. I'm not sure if my has the latest updates. Whenever I do a software update and it checks for any updates, it just goes away. It never says if there any updates or no updates available. Is that normal with this phone?  This is my first HTC phone.
