HTC has confirmed updates to jellybean for HTC phones... on Rodgers, T-Mobile, and AT&T.

This can be taken two ways:

1) No vzw phones are receive it, meaning that the Incredible 4G LTE won't be receiving it too, or

2) They have yet to say about Verizon phones updates.

This is should not be taken as final word since, well, the have actually said. Also, this isn't a very different upgrade, meaning it is similar to Ics and is not as big of an update as gb->ics. Also, this is only our first major update, when phones like the Incredible 2 is receiving ics.

Sources: http://www.discussmarket.com/htc-and-samsung-confirm-jelly-bean-4-1-upgrade

If this becomes a flame war or an off topic thread, I will shut it down.
[HTC Rezound] AshtonTS:
Probably that's just the first wave because no way in hell will they not update that Dinc 4G... .anyway the Rezound has yet to get ICS so I doubt we will see any JB anytime before a year from now

Aaaaannd first!
[HTC Rezound] antp121:
That's what I thinking but idk if the rezound would get the update this decade, as shown by ics...
[HTC Rezound] LunaticSerenade:
I would base the assumption on the T-Bolt getting ICS. It's supposed to, so I would think if it does, we'd get JB sometime next year (3rd or 4th quaryer if at all).

Unless they boycott VZW...which would be kind of funny.
[HTC Rezound] tekhna:
It is pretty incredible that 4.1 is out, and the Rezound is still officially on 2.3. I would assume, however, that the Rezound will get JB. It's too new not to. This is where HTC is falling apart though--too many models, too many software updates.
[HTC Rezound] nrfitchett4:
problems are more with verizon. HTC has had ICS for the rezound available for awhile now. It seems that verizon is holding it back considering other phones released around that time on other carriers have gotten it.
[HTC Rezound] AshtonTS:
Once my contract with verizon is done, I'm switching to AT&T
[HTC Rezound] dogswind:
I think we will get it, but what do I know. By the time we do, most of us will probably be fed up and move on. If our devs can get the AOSP stuff fixed up, who cares what HTC/Verizon does at that point though. It's weird how HTC has seemingly fallen. I looked at them as the standard back in my Eris and Inc days. Now I would probably pick most any other manufacturer over them after this phone and the Thunderbolt. :(
[HTC Rezound] nrfitchett4:
I didn't think you were old enough to have that choice...

I'm not sure what I will do. Still under contract until next summer and by then, there will be more changes. A lot of family is on verizon and I have 4 lines with unlimited data. I will probably stay put until that ends. AT&T would probably be my first choice with sprint being second. Sprint already has lte live most places I go (San Antonio, Dallas). T-mobile sucks inside buildings and I'm guessing sprint lte being on a higher frequency will as well.
[HTC Rezound] AshtonTS:
I CHOSE verizon for this 2 year contract. I wanted tmobile, so we got a sensation but tmobile has ****ty service where I live. So I ended up getting Rezound for free. I could have gotten AT&T because I could have gotten any phone on sprint verizon or AT&T free but I chose verizon. Next time, I am going to chose AT&T. Just cuz I'm a kid doesn't mean I have no say ;)
[HTC Rezound] RicoX9:
AT&T isn't going to be any kind of magic fix. Their policies are pretty reliably in step with Verizon. You'll see similar changes on AT&T within a year. The problem with HTC updating is everything to do with Verizon being assholes about their bloatware being on the phone. Every button that can be, has to have $ for Verizon attached to it. Hence the big delay with the Nexus and the removal of Google Wallet NFC stuff.

As soon as I'm able, I'm going to be looking at some of the prepaid plans. I should be able to cut my monthly by 20-25% over my "Family" plan now.
[HTC Rezound] antp121:
i would only switch to tmo or sprint and sprint has ****ty service here so that leave tmo...
[HTC Rezound] ijustwantmydock:
I'm 14 and pretty much control our plans because I do know so much about phones, carriers, etc. After I told my dad that we are losing our unlimited he agreed and said that we are canceling our contract and going to t-mobile when we can cause we have good coverage where we live.
[HTC Rezound] blestsol:
I'm thinking of crawling back to tmobile.. My first carrier. I liked magenta. Probably get an unlocked most recent Nexus.
[HTC Rezound] zone23:
I don't know when I was looking at carriers T-Mobile had some pretty ****ty phones. Guess its gotten a little better. I didn't realize that AT&T had upgraded all/any of their HTC handsets to ICS.
[HTC Rezound] jayochs:
all you suckers can easily leave verizon cuz you're getting ripped off as it is...

unfortunately, i can't. my bill is MAD cheap because i've been with them for 15+ years, so i can't go anywhere else because i'll automatically be paying more.
[HTC Rezound] renzo.olivares:
man my parents have been with them for like 11 years and we pay $180 a month :P
[HTC Rezound] brucekr:
I think unless you buy google's flagship development device like the nexus, you will be behind at least 1 version of android os no matter what carrier you have. It's a distinguishing selling point for new phones that are out. Personally, I think the rezound kicks every phone's ass that verizon sells aside from the GS3, but verizon wants to keep customers renewing their contracts every 18 months. They get nothing from people if they are keeping their old phones that are being continually updated with new software.
[HTC Rezound] zone23:
Don't know why carriers are so anxious to sell new phones when they loose money on them. Contracts don't keep customers good service and pricing does.
[HTC Rezound] dragonrazorz:
I pay $104 for just my rezound + insurance
[HTC Rezound] platinumrims:
I think mine is just under $111 a month. Unlimited mobile to any mobile, 450 lan line minutes, unlimited nights and weekends, unlimited sms/mms and 4gigs of data, and insurance. I didn't sign a contract though so I spent like 800 in the store that day >.> lol. I love the service, but eh.. The security on the phones and control over manufacturers, not so much...

They might give the rezound JB but I don't be using it as my main when they do, it'll probably be an Mp3 player lol. They may roll it out next year towards the end of the year.... Maybe.... That's what I'm thinking anyway
[HTC Rezound] vinnyjr:
The Rezound has better specs then most of the phones listed to receive Jelly Bean. If the Rezound doesn't get Jelly Bean there is something seriously wrong. This is the best phone on Verizon except for the SGS3.

Rezound via Tapatalk 2.
[HTC Rezound] antp121:
for 5 lines, one smartphone (my line) texting for all, it comes to ~$150 bc we have a 25% discount thanks to where my mom used to work. i get unlimited data for ~$20 a month :3
[HTC Rezound] dragonrazorz:
None of the colleges i attended give discount to vzn....but att i do -_-
[HTC Rezound] NorthlandAZ:
We have five lines, three smart phones and two phones, I'm paying $240 a month. When I was checking the other carriers before upgrading four phones back in Dec. Most of them where around the same price for the same plan I have with VZW. TM was only $15 cheaper and Sprint AT&T where the same price. It seems for what we have, they all are about the same price.
[HTC Rezound] ijustwantmydock:
Right now my family pays $260 for 4 lines all smartphones 3 unlimited and 1 with 2gb if we upgrade we'll have to all get 2gb which is way too little
[HTC Rezound] das0527:
The Rezound has about as much a chance of receiving Jellybean from Verizon as I have of receiving a bl#$^ob from Anne Hathaway. I'm flabbergasted that anyone would seriously entertain the notion that we'd ever get an official Jellybean OTA.

Screw Verizon, screw HTC, and all hail the Mighty Omnipotent XDA Dev Community.
[HTC Rezound] evilstewie23:
Lol but why Anne Hathaway.

Sent from my Rezound
[HTC Rezound] Insidious:
Yeah Joelz has made good progress on JB.
[HTC Rezound] das0527:
I was comparing the official JB OTA to something else that will never, ever, ever happen no matter how badly I want it to.

Plus, Anne Hathaway's f'ing hot.
[HTC Rezound] rezoundness:
Would you like me to call Ann for you as when she is.do.e with you I am sure HTC will have jellybean all ready to go....
[HTC Rezound] Insidious:
Wtf my family has been with them for 15+ years but they're like "you're not eligible for a discount."
[HTC Rezound] zetsumeikuro:
ICS vs JB is pretty much night and day difference. It's like going from Vista to Windows 7. Wouldn't hold my breath for an OTA for the Rez. But Joel is on the case and everyone wants his jellybeans!
[HTC Rezound] Legobricke:
Interesting position that most think that JB will not make it to the Rezound...

HTC did a great job of being sure the Incredible received 2 major upgrades over the 2 years I had it.

With that in mind, I do hope we will see it.... It might be the last upgrade we see, but I do think we will get it.

The only real disappointment is that HTC didn't release it with ICS on it to start.

Certainly HTC had the ONE X already in production and knew that they were changing their game plan, so maybe the Rezound was just a dump phone. Who knows...

But, if HTC doesn't commit to JB on the Rezound, I will be switching to a Nexus at the end of the year.

[HTC Rezound] blestsol:
You'll probably be buying a Nexus buddy.
[HTC Rezound] nrfitchett4:
good luck with t-mobile. I thought the same thing, switched from sprint and would constantly lose signal at work (hospital). They run on higher frequencies than the other carriers which kills building penetration. When I called and complained asking why it didn't switch over to at&t and roam, they told me that those agreements were over and they only had roaming agreements with at&t in areas with zero t-mobile coverage. Because I was told I could roam on at&t and the horrible reception problems I had, I was able to get out of my contracts and switched to verizon.
[HTC Rezound] jayochs:
it's not a discount, per se. it's a loyalty plan. loyalty 550 minutes for $40, and then each line is $10 after that. on top of that, we h ave a 21% access AND feature discount because my father worked for merck pharmaceuticals. loyalty plans were harder to get..i snagged mine like, 5 years ago maybe when they bumped us up to the standard 700 minute plan..i called and complained saying we used to have 450, and we used maybe 10 minutes a month. so after a bit,t he woman was like, okay we're gonna keep you paying that same $40, but we're gonna give you 100 more minutes to 550 and give you a loyalty plan. i was like, more minutes for free? sure! and of course the feature discount helps because my data plan is like only $23 with it.
[HTC Rezound] funnyangrykid:
The thing is.. Jelly Bean is not a huge update from ICS like it was for GB to ICS. And we ARE most likely going to receive an Official ICS update. So Jelly Bean is a very possible Update if we get ICS. But I never said well get Jelly Bean soon, but our ICS is close.

[HTC Rezound] Insidious:
We'll be receiving Jellybean.....

From Joelz :p
[HTC Rezound] antp121:
Yeah not from HTC tho... at least in the near future...

Sent from my pimped out HP Touchpad
[HTC Rezound] johnwaynegacy:
They could just simply make a jellybean phone for verizon and not update the dinc 4g. If a jb update does come for any of the current vzw htc phones, it will be long after they are obsolete.
[HTC Rezound] Divine_Madcat:
Thankfully, thanks to our community (RIL and S-OFF), once agian we shall be free from VZ's shackles. With a fixed AOSP RIL inbound, things are looking very good for JB AOSP (we have already seen the GB kernel modded to work for ICS; things should only get easier if we ever get the ICS kernel source)...

That said, it is pathetic as to how the carriers treat us. I really hope that in the spirit of Ma Bell, these companies are forced to split up and fix their horrible practices..
[HTC Rezound] antp121:
you know what? i think we may be the first vzw lte phone with fixed ICS AOSP ril. you cant really count the gnex bc it came fixed so that leaves us and the razr. they have aosp but its all work arounds so that doesnt count either imo :)
[HTC Rezound] renzo.olivares:
well technically any lte device with working aosp ril is using a work around..besides gnex
[HTC Rezound] ijustwantmydock:
Oooooohh joelz is getting all technical up in here
[HTC Rezound] antp121:
well i mean w/o all the kexec bs. like full on aosp rom with fixed ril. same for the sgs3. it uses kexec.
[HTC Rezound] con247:
Kexec has nothing to do with ril lol.
[HTC Rezound] renzo.olivares:
kexec isnt ril related :P kexec is a workaroud for bootloader
[HTC Rezound] antp121:
I know, I know. I mean we have aosp w/o kexec and fixed ril. God, harsh crowd lol. I know what kexec does ;)

[HTC Rezound] rezoundness:
its been like 5 electronic years since google announced jelly bean.... why do we not have it yet and why doesnt google have their partners have devices ready to ship with any new os the moment that new os is announced. I am sick of waiting for the os. Other os makers dont make them wait such as Microsoft and Apple. IT is stupid that google does not use moto as leverage with the makers. also i want key lime pie from google directly and google should now take over all of android and not allow skins and all, it should be pure android as sense is really an android based os just like the kindle has its own os based on android. Google needs to but its foot down and say these are the hardware requirements for low mid and highend devices and then the partners (does google even need partners since they own moto) and then say you have to compete now on quality and not the stupid overlays that dont add anything to android at all. Infact the overlays add to the time it takes to test updates and all.... almost one year for the first non nexus device to ship with ics... god not even jellybean has shipped as a phones first os yet... the gs3 started with ics and only in austrlia will it have jb from the launch their.
[HTC Rezound] GrayBoltWolf:
Manufacturers put skins on it and take forever with updates because they can. When you buy your phone, you get what you get. There is no guarantee of future software updates. HTC is not legally bound to give us anything besides what the phone came with.

Google doesn't put their foot down because they make a ton of money when the manufacturers buy licenses to use their software. If google told them no, they would lose money.
[HTC Rezound] Insidious:
Exactly, welcome to one of the disadvantages of open sourced software. Just about anyone can do anything with it. That open handset alliance didn't do jack.
[HTC Rezound] platinumrims:
I agree, I just wish google would put out a nexus that was worth spending 600+ dollars on... An actual flagship device that is geared toward beating every other phone on the makret
[HTC Rezound] GrayBoltWolf:
Not just a middle-of-the-road device.
[HTC Rezound] luis86dr:
I'd bet my last dollar that it will be ported by these great developers. If (and that's a big if) Verizon & HTC decide to upgrade the Rezound, I'm sure it won't be for quite some time. I think once all the quirks are worked out on AOSP, the next big step will be Jellybean. My two cents.. :)

Samsung Galaxy S3
[HTC Rezound] SteveG12543:
They already have JB booting on our phone, not sure what else though. There's a thread for CM10 in the Dev section.
[HTC Rezound] AshtonTS:
Google doesn't really make money from the licenses... android is free to use (I know that not just anyone can have the Gapps in their public devices and all) but the reality is the way Android is licensed, Google CAN'T prevent OEM's from skinning the OS, just like they can't prevent Devs from building ROMS.
[HTC Rezound] ChrisFa5:
I'm just glad we have such dependable developers. I would like JB, but CM9 has been great.
[HTC Rezound] GrayBoltWolf:
Yep. I can wait because CM9 is great.
[HTC Rezound] nolig2278:
What is so great about jelly bean? Will it really make the phone/pda experience any better?

[HTC Rezound] GrayBoltWolf:
I haven't actually used it, but based on the description on Google's android page, and what other people say I assume it is really awesome. Like iOS scrolling awesome.
[HTC Rezound] jm700wx:
I have Jellybean on my asus tf300 and my nexus7 and i will tell you the user experience is awesome. It is so smooth and fast. JB is worth it just for project butter. Trust me, we want JB for this device just for the smoothness.
[HTC Rezound] ssoares01:
For a device to be bumped 2 OS versions is a pretty tall expectation for a manufacturer IMO. Hell, look at how long it took to get ICS on our phones, does anyone here realllllly think that we are ever going to see a stock JB version for our phones?

I'll just wait for the dev's to get the kinks worked out. They will eventually, and until then I'll enjoy futzing with kernels and ROM's that are currently being cooked up.
[HTC Rezound] blackhand1001:
Yes. Even stock ice cream sandwich is a huge improvement over sense 3.6. Go to the Verizon store and play with a galaxy nexus. Hopefully the demo model doesn't have any garbage on it. You'll see how much more responsive and polished it is.
[HTC Rezound] devilsadidas:
Can't really compare diff devices running jb to the rezound on ics... the rezound running jb will not give the same experience as a galaxy nexus... and def won't be as fast as the nexus 7...
[HTC Rezound] I Am Marino:
Jelly Bean is awesome.

I can tell you.
[HTC Rezound] platinumrims:
Yup I've got JB on a phone that's like 2 years old and it's still.pretty swift.
[HTC Rezound] Proz00:
HTC and the other companies do it intentionally

if they update it fast ppls will buy old smartphones to save money

it doesnt take long time to make update

lets comper sense4 to sense 3.6

sense4 is much better htc rebuild it and make it less buggy
[HTC Rezound] cmoshea:
I must be the black sheep because I would love to have a sensed Rom sitting on top of my nexus 7. Maybe after the year of use I'm just accustomed to it now
[HTC Rezound] jeepdroid31:
I don't see what the big fuss is about ota updates. Everyone that doesn't root/mod there phone didn't really know much about the update and the people that do were running roms off of early releases. Imo if we don't get an ota well still see jb
[HTC Rezound] CharliesTheMan:
I agree, we will definitely see jellybean on the rezound, from the dev community, I doubt it will be released from HTC, at least its not something I would count on, but I would be appreciative if they did.

Personally, I would much rather see HTC putting the resources into making the next really amazing new flagship device instead of an OS update on a phone that's over a year old.

For those that ask what the difference in jellybean is, its a really big difference. It's so smooth and fast, and also very efficient. It's already really stable, and its got the potentital to be even better with the next few revisions.

In my opinion, its the first Android version to compete with iOS in some areas as far as just regular non rooted usage, for people who aren't into rooting and modifying and tweaking. With jellybean, I feel more comfortable advising people I know to switch from iOS to android.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xricky15:
Hey there, I was just wondering if anyone out there can possibly have, or can create, the fallowing apps in WP7 style for android. I am trying to bring new ideas to the Seven+ project and I am open to test any wp7 style apps that anyone may have or can create.

Fallowing wp7 Style apps are: WP7 Camera, WP7 Calendar, WP7 Browser, WP7 Gallery, WP7 Facebook, WP7 Notes, WP7 Clock/Alarm and finally a WP7 Email app.

Remember, the apps must me for Android System(APK), if anyone is successful in creating any of these apps I'm pretty sure that the Seven+ project team will be happy to add you to their Dev team, also you can make some serious money if the apps are pushed to the Play Store.

Please Message me or email me (xricky15@live.com) ASAP. Thank You.:)

Yea its possible, it has been done before but they removed the files so now i gpt to find people who would make them.

No we cant, but apps that have the style that of a WP7, just the looks like it, not that it is.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GrampaBear:
Hey Folks!

I finally managed to get the Cyanogenmod 7.2 and GAPPS installed on my SD card and I want to thank one and all for their assistance. It has been running pretty well for the past week, well enough that my grandkids have managed to get me started with the Angry Birds game. I gotta watch myself playing it cause the time goes by real quick like and chores get missed. I've been reading the posts here and the answers everyone gave me when I was having trouble with my Nook. A few things have happened and I have a couple of questions about a few other.

1. Most of the time the Nook boots into Cyanogenmod with no problems, but about one out of every 6 or so times it just hangs up on boot. It tells you it is starting but just stays there, when this happens it may happen two or threee time in a row, is this common? Is there a fix I can try?

2. There seems to be some applications for a phone on Cyanogenmod, can I remove these? Is there even a way to remove them? I just wanted to kind of clean things up a bit, should I even be attempting this?

3. What applications do you more experienced users feel are a necessity for a new user to have on the Nook? Are there any applications on the Nook that a noob really shouldn't mess around with? Is there any recommended reading about using android that anyone can recommend?
