[Desire HD General] whiperhack:
But can't we use a kernel already made? IE: the one from blackout team. They had successfully port ics 3.6 from sensation xl.
[Desire HD General] Quinny899:
That was using our current kernel, they only ported the ROM
[Desire HD General] superlj:
I can understand old hardware might cause experience problem with Sense. But can't they cook official ROMs without Sense for ’old’ phones! At lease customers will not be angry! And this would not affect the One series.
[Desire HD General] Mikenif:
Well with some additions by Bryan :)

Porting Camera can be done tho. Its just time consuming.

I hope HTC decides to drop or atleast give us the kernel source and save us the hassle
[Desire HD General] whiperhack:
Relax dude, we will get the official 3.6 for sure. But don't know when. TELUS has made his own decision. Official ICS comes from HTC not TELUS.
[Desire HD General] sheenswizner:
camera not working in ics

I wish camera works in ics custom roms!

No specific date for ICS release yet!
[Desire HD General] shithead:
I don't know much about rom development, but can you explain why device A can't use device B's kernel, even they (almost) have the same hardware, please? :)

Thanks :)

Here is the answer from HTC: and all underlineds are my notes.

Dear

Sir

,

Thank you for contacting HTC. I will be happy to answer that question for you

Sir

.

HTC does not announce dates for release of software due to the nature of the software development process. At any point in the software development cycle an situation may be encountered that requires anything from some minor additional rework to complete rewrites of the software base. Only after the final acceptance testing has been successfully completed will HTC release software. The normal time period between the final acceptance testing and release of software is about a week and often shorter than that.” (

He does not give me info about the cancellation)

Sorry for the inconvenience Sir. Please feel free to email me with any additional questions or you can contact us by phone at 1-866-449-8358 between the hours of 6 am and 1 am Eastern time 7 days a week.

Let me know if I have successfully answered your question, please click here to complete this.

When i got answer from HTC they said that there is no info about update cancel.

[Desire HD General] Quinny899:
Not everything is the same so it won't boot, and if it did nothing would work
[Desire HD General] dhd1802:
same scripted response that was posted earlier :(
[Desire HD General] shithead:
ok ... thanks :)
[Desire HD General] golf12:
I think we'll get an answer tomorrow (Monday) or then just start spamming for something source, kernel anything so this device can keep moving forward on Xda.
[Desire HD General] angramenyu:
HTC is making me very angry right now. Why haven't they addressed the issue so far? Plus, the Incredible S got its taste of ICS, and the phone has almost the same specs as the Desire HD.
[Desire HD General] shithead:
Because it's weekend ...
[Desire HD General] soleil10:
Hi, it seems that Vodafone didn't cancel the upgrade:

Hi Medjitena, Desire HD is right there in the table, the update is in testing at the moment. I can’t remember any updates we’ve cancelled recently, was there a particular update you were referring to?

this answer is for anybody els :

Hi Jules, there has been one small maintenance release for the HTC EVO 3D since we released it, although the Android version remained the some. Once the update is released give it a go to see if you can update, and if not our Help & Support Team in the forums can help further.

this means , i'm pretty sure ics for us is coming .
[Desire HD General] canabz:
This thread just annoys me now, Only telus have cancelled I would proberly say delayed HTC have not said a single word about any cancelation just chill !

I want to shake some of you guys!!:banghead:

[Desire HD General] MohamedYousri:
it's same situation here with sense 3.0 update , they said that DHD can't handle it while we was enjoying a full port from Sensation and they released the update at the end ,,,

i hope that update will be on it's planned schedule
[Desire HD General] genikk:
I wish this wasn't true :( At least maybe Telus won't upgrade their phones, do not know...

[Desire HD General] atrako1973:
Did you bother to read the couple of pages before u posted?
[Desire HD General] Mikael01:
I got response from customer care Czech Republic, and, to translate it, So far, they dont know anything about update being canceled and that if everything runs according to the plan and the device runs through performance tests, then it is still scheduled for update in July-August
[Desire HD General] genikk:
sorry if it was here already, maybe missed
[Desire HD General] vanadium101:
the 20 previous pages are full of people posting the same thing,

Only Telus might

have cancelled,

not HTC

.
[Desire HD General] ABorgh:
This is great news! Testing is a good sign because it means that ics for Dhd is for real. And for a test build to become a final build takes almost a week, even faster some times!

By the test fase it is most likely to get a leak too. So if someone know anyone who works for a carrier or HTC contact them and make them release a leak ;)
[Desire HD General] Pop Tarantula:
No! No it isn't! It's a load of nonsense. There have been less twists & turns than a Roman road... Seems there are more repeats here than Sky TV could show in a year... Very little information, masses of speculation & way to much whiny b/s....
[Desire HD General] pappas99:
Exactly. Cut the bs guys seriously. No more negative posting in this thread please unless it's sourced directly from htc, kthx
[Desire HD General] AMIR-TUTU:
guys where is mt answer on that page ?

this ?

Hi Amir, the testing is currently underway. Once the update is approved I will share the news in the Weekly Wrap.

please link me . i lost that .:confused:
[Desire HD General] soleil10:
Why someone erase all answers concerning Deisre HD on Vodafone? I think it is a very bad news for all DHD users.

AMIR, could you please ask the question on the Web Site of Vodafone?
[Desire HD General] atrako1973:
I have ics on my dhd thanks blackout team
[Desire HD General] getaceres:
Great, but camera does not work.
[Desire HD General] AMIR-TUTU:
i asked that before ...

but my question doesnt show in the page:(
[Desire HD General] acamarin:
Yes, great for you! I hope you have big pockets for that dslr!

If you don't want the full working ics, why post anyway?! We all tried ported ics and wanted more (not to sound ungrateful to devs and their work, I know they want that kernel more than us).
[Desire HD General] atrako1973:
Don't be mad I posted it for people to see that it works and runs perfect on dhd , don't blame if the camera is not working
[Desire HD General] Fatos:
Htc sopport Norway. They still say that its not cancelled. And they say that its just rumors . Htc hasent given any sign of cancelling. And they said July August and now we are in mid of July so 1 and a half month to go. And htc is not in hurry to give the update so it will take time but it will come.
[Desire HD General] johrie:
Why is everyone still bothering to ask companies about the upgrade to ICS? We already know it is Telus that is not upgrading and NOT HTC that is canceling the update.
[Desire HD General] bosas200:
Here what i get:

Many thanks for your reply,

The update is still being released. We have had nothing to say it will be canceled.

If it gets canceled we would announce it through our Facebook/Twitter pages.
[Desire HD General] acamarin:
I am not mad, and don't see any point arguing with you online, just said that even if you don't need the update, every other people want it, not for the sake of official rom, but for the quality of custom ones (hate to state the obvious, but it seems to me that you don't get that).

As for your deep pockets, real classy statement...
[Desire HD General] Negerus:
News from Italy, that It will maybe released today. Would be great. Waiting too long for this

Yes there is.. 2 post above you and you can check the twitter account..
[Desire HD General] Nadirchine:
I saw the post on twitter，but we need confirmation from vituous team ... because i am tired，and i can not wait for HTC official ROM
[Desire HD General] BaT420:
We are at the same place on this virtuous rom as we are with all the other aosp ics roms for dhd.

Working camera but problems with camcorder.

<desirehdowner> so i have a question about the wifi and camera fix announced today on twitter is video camera working too?

[15:14] <@chrisch1974> camcorder makes some problems on the dhd atm
[Desire HD General] Nadirchine:
when virtuous team post this ROM ？
[Desire HD General] BaT420:
They didn't post the rom yet they just posted on twitter they got wifi tether and camera fixed so they can get it into a new rom or add it to an existing one.
[Desire HD General] ROBINGAZI:
I'd say other teams/devs would probably beat virtuous to it...they have a reputation of being perfectionists :)
[Desire HD General] robinmobile:
i think virtous team is talking about a aosp rom with working cam which we allready have like icecoldsandwich and not ics with sense rom .

correct me if i am wrong.
[Desire HD General] xUniverse:
your wrong they work an Sense ROM
[Desire HD General] Nadirchine:
no .. they talk about their ROM ， you can check the previous posts or virtuous twitter to see that they talk about new thing
[Desire HD General] AMIR-TUTU:
guys please give us the link of this rom ...
[Desire HD General] angramenyu:
I don't, I use my phone, so...
[Desire HD General] xUniverse:
we have no link its not public at the moment :S
[Desire HD General] Nadirchine:
they did nt post the ROM yet
[Desire HD General] Quinny899:
The screenshot of the camera is clearly the sense camera app, so unless they ported the camera to aosp, they fixed the sense 4 camera
[Desire HD General] AMIR-TUTU:
their rom has sense ? isnt ?

Hi Kieran McIlwain,

and :

Kieran McIlwain says:

Hi SIkatzui, I have received no indication that the update to the Desire HD has been cancelled. While I am aware of reports from overseas, they do not apply to the updates undergoing testing here in Australia.

Regarding the missing posts, occasionally our Spam filter will reject posts from IP-ranges outside of Australia which exhibit certain traits.

[Desire HD General] krisdanny84:
Have Nottingh News from the official relase date????
[Desire HD General] 13770147:
Well well...

The reason why I start this thread is that I just want everyone to know HTC has scheduled ETA.

Also, I want everyone to know where to find ics update blog from HTC.

As long as we can share some info about ics for DHD, I guess its okay.

I really dont care people who are shouting or complaining or something else.

i guess they just want to update their DHD to Android 4.0 and taste .

Here I also want to update to Android 4.0 and taste it.

Therefore, I can understand them.

For me, if u said "****" then u r one of them too.

Thanks.

What a useless reply from idiots in support center! :D 1000 words meaning "I dont know, I will maybe find out". Two days to check if they are releasing ICS for DHD or not?! Pick up the phone and call the guys who are testing it, how hard can it be? I dont wanna generalize but behind that polite words is person who hates himself every day for having that job!
[Desire HD General] AMIR-TUTU:
what ?

why ?

this rhread let you know update is in the way or cancelled !
[Desire HD General] Vict20:
Keep calm

Guys, a lot of websites and blogs are picking up on this now so hopefully this will put pressure on HTC for an official answer on whats going on especially re the Telus debacle.

I'm not able to post links yet but do a google search on " Android 4.0 ics update for HTC desire HD Axed " and see particularly the first result.

I doubt it too.3 weeks ago htc support in my country said update is out and ready to download

I asked them yesterday about Desire HD update they said it will be out in week or two

Actually i belive HTC would made announcement if they canceld update.

Silently abandoning ICS update for HD would piss alot of ppl and customers so i doubt it will happen
[Desire HD General] :
This thread is useless.

Just dont except the update.

if it comes out it will be a big suprise :good:

we have a nearly fully working ics rom thanks to dh.harald, twistedumbrella, LordClockaN, existz and CM/AOKP group....

and maybe Jelly Bean update too, which will be never published by HTC for our phones.

thank of virtuous team a full sense 4.0 too.

you get more here then you need :fingers-crossed:

Oops sorry my bad i read from another source that didn't mention telus.
[Desire HD General] atrako1973:
The only source of cancelation the tech website are coting is telus Canada there is no other source of cancellation ,why? Cause HTC has not cancelled officially or otherwise ,dhd is still on the list of HTC to get ics ,so.........
[Desire HD General] hamdir:
come one guys

nevermind Telus its just a carrier

the update is already out for the Desire S and incredible S both are exact replica's of the DHD with LESS RAM! and ofcourse the Sensation XL

Its coming, im sure its holding due to the camera drivers delayed from OEM or something like that

and FINALYY the biggest argument of them all

the Desire HD is still their number one sold Android Device and so far the most to have received major updates, you really think they can risk the outrage of customers by cancelling the ICS update :)
[Desire HD General] Pop Tarantula:
You have my sincere thanks for a great topic but like others here, I'm getting fed up of the 'new post' alerts leading me to the same old same old, over & over & over.... No news is good news but pretend news is fcuking annoying....

Your original idea has become polluted with repetitive speculation, whining, misinterpretation, blog url's, HTC convo transcripts & frankly, if the thread were closed, people would be forced to read what is already written.. Although I think they would actually start their own thread in the belief that they have some news we do not already know.
[Desire HD General] robinmobile:
I think now it's time to spam HTC about the update. Or should we reserve that for jelly bean?
[Desire HD General] hamdir:
JB lol i think ICS is the end of the line :)

HI HAMDIR ...:cowboy:

I VERY LOVE YOUR WORKS .:good:
