Didn't Google make it a requirement that phones had to be supported for a certain amount of time? I thought they did that after the over-saturation of devices that never, ever saw any updates (I'm looking at you Motorola Cliq)
[HTC EVO 3D] spencer88:
I believe he's talking about the development of Android itself. Google isn't cranking out versions of Android like they have in the past, at least as not as fast from 2.1 - 2.3.
[HTC EVO 3D] eXplicit815:
That would be great, but I remember when they'd drop .x updates like they were going out of style.
[HTC EVO 3D] DoctorComrade:
They said they would slow to updates once a year instead of two.

Really? OK, I'll bite.

Please explain to me how this is the 'stupidest thing' you've EVER heard. If you can do that without sounding like a butthurt device fanboy, you get bonus points.

Look, I couldn't give 2 sh&ts about a Samsung phone, as I think they are cheap builds, and would never buy one. But, I am not blind to the fact that, on the whole, Google releases updates to their devices first, because I they're business-partner-bedpals. It's not really that hard to figure out.
[HTC EVO 3D] SolsticeZero:
It's the stupidest thing I've ever heard because you said that Google would leak it for the best Samsung device out there. And I quote:

In all reality, Google has nothing to do with development of Ice Cream Sandwich for the SGSII, or any phone other than the Nexus One and the Nexus S. Development for future software updates from any phone other than those two come from the manufacturer of the phone, which would be Samsung. So there is no way Google would leak it for a device that they don't directly support, be it an HTC, a Motorola, a Samsung, or even a ****ing Kyocera.

So, yes, it is stupid to think that Google would leak it for any device other than the Nexus S or the Nexus One.

end of story
[HTC EVO 3D] eman3316@optonline.net:
I think you are confused a little. Samsung makes some of the Nexus phones for Google. Any Nexus phone is considered to be a Google phone whether Samsung, HTC or any other manufacturer make it.

The SGS II is not considered to be a Google phone anymore then the EVO 3D or Motorola Photon. I never owned a Samsung Android device but I don't think they are that great with updates but someone correct me if I am wrong.
[HTC EVO 3D] jadoe05:

The nexus line isn't manufactured by a specific company. Whoever makes it that year is whoever makes it that year.
[HTC EVO 3D] dadoc04:
^^ no correction needed. What you typed is absolutely correct.
[HTC EVO 3D] jerofld:
Google would have to give the ice cream sandwich update to Samsung to put on the Nexus phones, though. Do you think Samsung wouldn't just copy it and send it to their other departments?

I still think it's moot to argue about. The Evo 3D will get ICS. Gingerbread is pretty good, though, so I don't mind waiting.
[HTC EVO 3D] dadoc04:
No they dont give it to Samsung... its pushed directly to the phone from Google as it doesnt run a UI (touchwiz) or overlay on android. Nexus is pure Android.

They will give ICS to samsung, HTC, moto, and whoever else so that those companies can update their UIs to run properly over android.
[HTC EVO 3D] eman3316@optonline.net:
Please tell me you are no older then 12 to actually type something like this. Cause at 13 you should even know better.......
[HTC EVO 3D] SolsticeZero:
This man is correct. Nexus phones, while built by different manufacturers, are 100% maintained by Google. Not the manufacturers, not the carriers, just Google.
[HTC EVO 3D] DoctorComrade:
With the update part you are wrong. Samsung is very timely with their updates to the SGS phones everywhere but the US. This is due to carriers stalling them for whatever reason and why the cellular market sucks in the US. It's all about carrier branding unlike the rest of the world its about phone branding. Samsung only had to release a basic version of the SGS outside of the world but in the US? They had to release 4 different versions.

[HTC EVO 3D] eman3316@optonline.net:
Has there even been and discussions or screenshots around ICS?

I remember when everyone was saying that Gingerbread was going to have this whole UI remake and manufactures will not need to add there own skins to it. It was going to the the great graphice overhaul that Android needed.

Then Gingerbread comes out and it is exactly like Froyo with a few enhancements. We might be getting excited for ICS but it just might be the same thing over again......A few behind the scene updates.
[HTC EVO 3D] eman3316@optonline.net:
Well being that I am in the US, that is really the only place that would matter to me as far as updates are concerned. I wouldn't buy a Samsung device because they are great with updates in China.
[HTC EVO 3D] mazook98:
Correct. How well did the HTC made Nexus One do, overall?

How satisfied was Google with that business venture?

What company did Google choose to manufacture their Chromebooks?

What manufacturer does Google have the most vested interest in, monetarily?

Is it HTC, or is it Samsung?

Finally, the whole discussion aside, I'll simply ask one last question:

IN YOUR OPINION.... Which phone will see the official release of Ice Cream Sandwich first????

The SGS2, or the EVO3D?

SENT.
[HTC EVO 3D] SolsticeZero:
You're still basing this off of complete opinion, though. Let's take a look at Froyo. How long did it take HTC to get it to the Evo? Now look at how long it took Samsung to get it to the Epic (or any of the US Galaxy S line).

And again, let me put it in caps lock so you might hear:

GOOGLE HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THESE PHONES GETTING UPDATES!

They release the source to everyone at the same time, and the manufacturers take it from there. Also, Google doesn't "prefer" Samsung. Samsung simply won the bid to build the next Nexus phone. Who knows, next year it could be ****ing Kyocera for all we know.

You, sir, are the one who sounds like a fanboy here.

SENT!
[HTC EVO 3D] mazook98:
Jesus, really???

I ONLY BUY HTC PHONES...

I have the 3D, two EVO4Gs, and a Shift.

I'm definitely NO fanboy.

I AM, however, a realist.
[HTC EVO 3D] eXplicit815:
Let's not forget as well, the manufacturers then release it down to the individual carriers, and it's up to THEM when they really get the update.
[HTC EVO 3D] Jaywan:
+1
[HTC EVO 3D] SolsticeZero:
If you were a realist, you would realize that Samsung has a horrible track record of getting updates out to their phones in the US. Why do you think they will magically be better with the SGSII? Especially when they'll have the same problem as they did with the Galaxy S, which is needing to make four different versions since four different carriers have four different models of the same phone. Hell, some people are STILL waiting for the Epic to get an official Gingerbread update.

From some Googling, it seems the Epic got their official Froyo (the second-non-bricking release) on February 21st of THIS YEAR. The Evo 4G had their froyo LAST AUGUST! Why the hell do you think Samsung is better about getting out updates?

EDIT: You're the worst fanboy ever if you don't even own the phones you're blatantly promoting for no reason.
[HTC EVO 3D] eXplicit815:
Didn't Froyo brick a lot of the Epic 4Gs on it's initial release?
[HTC EVO 3D] dadoc04:
mazooka,

the Nexus line (OWNED by GOOGLE) can be built by any Manufacturer. It depends on who wins the bid.

the Galaxy line is Samsungs phone which runs their U.I... not sure what part you are missing.

So LG, SAMSUNG, moto, HTC, etc... can be the next Nexus manufacturer and that phone will be the first to get updates (pushed by Google)
[HTC EVO 3D] SolsticeZero:
Yep. They pulled it and re-released it later.
[HTC EVO 3D] DoctorComrade:

[HTC EVO 3D] dadoc04:
how about some AOSP?? :D:D
[HTC EVO 3D] Jaywan:
EVO 3D will. Sprint will push HTC for and update simply because the E3D is the flagship device for Sprint right now and the EVO line will always be. Just like the old EVO and the EVO shift both got updated to Gingerbread we will get updated to ics. Why you say... Cause EVO is to Sprint as Nexus is to google. Bottem line we will get it.
[HTC EVO 3D] SolsticeZero:
Damnit! I was gonna make that joke! :mad:

Also, like mentioned above, I'm willing to bet the E3D will before the Sprint SGSII
[HTC EVO 3D] nhutpham:
HTC will leak the ice cream sandwich build early with a few bugs. Meanwhile, the sgsii gsm international version will get the update, and developers will try to adapt it to the US versions. We will play with a bunch of roms, keeping us happy while we wait for the official HTC update, which will be slow to arrive as HTC pushes out their next flagship phone. Samsung users will wait for cyanogen ice cream to be bug free and to work on their device, as they wait forever for their carriers/Samsung to drop the updates for all the sgsii's at once.
[HTC EVO 3D] eXplicit815:
Oh how history repeats itself.
[HTC EVO 3D] mlin:
Or perhaps the nexus s...? The nexus s will undoubtedly get it first.

Sent from my Shooter.
[HTC EVO 3D] mlin:
One thing that has to be taken into consideration is the size of these two companies. Samsung is significantly larger than HTC with a production capacity that is exponentially greater. If Google wants to continue the onslaught of Android on the mobile market, they need to do it with a partner that can meet the demands. Unfortunately as was seen with the Nexus S, perhaps Samsung should slow down production and improve quality control. Say what you want about HTC's manufacturing defects but when it comes down to it I'll take light leakage over non-working WiFi, Data, and Voice any day.
[HTC EVO 3D] sthansen:
I have to disagree with this statement. As a former owner of a Samsung Epic 4G, I can tell you horror stories about waiting for froyo. And now that I passed the phone down to my wife, I am still waiting for an official gingerbread update that was supposed to drop a couple months ago.

samsung is a ****ty company when it comes to pushing updates just cause the nesus s is made by samsung it doesnt mean the galaxy s 2 will recieve ics before other phones.

[HTC EVO 3D] Bamba1260:
That's all I thought when I saw it too.

"Hey! That's the set up I had on my OG Evo!"

Well and of course, an edited build.prop (seen it done MANY times), and a couple icon changes.

Amateur lol
[HTC EVO 3D] sgt. slaughter:
Yup this is totally fake 100%. a dev here could cook that up in a rom no problem with theming and editing the build prop

the big tip off is when they say "mostly UI changes..."

Sorry but ICS is NOT just mostly UI changes, its a complete mesh between honeycomb and GB and a bunch more. you'd know that just from the last google event long ago where they showed off some ICS features.

it'd also not spell ICS out and would have the numbering on the info page like 2.3.3 and such. our phones dont say Gingerbread on them. lol

Edit:

Now some of those people posting on twitter saying their sources also confirm this is ICS like TeamAndIRC might make me second guess this some and it might be somewhat real. BUT i swear ICS is supposed to be much much more than just general UI tweaks from what was said in the semi reval by google. Isn't the kernel old too ??

anyway if it is real i sure will be sad as i hate that color more than anything else.

Wasn't the Evo 4G one of the first phones behind the Nexus Brand to receive Froyo? The SGSII will not be first by a long shot. History will repeat... repeat... repeat.

http://blogs.computerworld.com/16310/android_22_upgrade_list

Actually Sammy rolled in at 13th on the list of updating to Froyo -(Not including the Nexus Brand)

Although, I must add... the SGSI was the first to receive Gingerbread besides the Nexus Brand. Although, HTC still dominated the rankings.

[HTC EVO 3D] Bamba1260:
I stand corrected lol.
[HTC EVO 3D] firmbiz94:
The n1 didn't sell bc of the way they pushed it ..not because of.the quality of the phone..I would argue that the nexus s wasn't much of an improvement ..your the one acting like a fanboy ..just because the HTC nexus 1 got gingerbread didn't mean i saw it on my 4G..we had to wait till it was integrated with sense ..same with touchwiz
[HTC EVO 3D] sprinttouch666:
This is apparently coming from the same source that leaked Gingerbread, which is why everyone believes him. He/She may have edited the build prop to hide the version number (considering it hasn't been announced) or Google may not have even decided yet lol (and in that case would probably just put "Ice Cream Sandwich" in the version number). Your right, ICS is supposed to have more under the hood than just including some HC ui tweaks. That kernel doesn't look shockingly new but the people that think ICS will come with a 3.0 kernel are idiots. 3.0 is barely ready for PC's and i doubt we see it in android anytime soon
[HTC EVO 3D] Bamba1260:
Yup. I am an idiot.

It's not like android.git.kernel.org references the Linux kernel 3.0 or anything. It must also be an idiot.
[HTC EVO 3D] Bamba1260:
oops lol....
[HTC EVO 3D] noneed2aim:
N what if all the devices get it at the same time, since google did say it wanted every device to be on the same page. Its possible, unlikely but possible n a smart bussiness move in my opinion

I talked to my cousin who works at Google, all I asked if what the leaked pictures were showing were accurate, all he said was "I don't know." followed by "8]". Knowing how **** my cousin is I'd say this could be the direction ICS is heading in, even if it seems implausible.
[HTC EVO 3D] eXplicit815:
Honeycomb dropped the green glow, and went to the blue glow. I'd expect the next update to be released will do the same.
[HTC EVO 3D] sgt. slaughter:
the blue icons in the status bar are not in honeycomb last i remember. thats the main thing i hate there. but again dont think honeycomb really has much of a status bar either like our phones do.
