Im sure we wont get official sense 4.1 (or 4+). Reason: money. Its just not profitable for htc.

The problem with custom ROMs is they aways have bugs, and some things of the device doesn't work or doesn't work properly. I prefer to stay stock...
[HTC EVO 3D] ramjet73:
Then you will need to get another phone to run Jelly Bean.

I'm 100% sure of that at this point. It just wouldn't make sense (pardon the pun ;)) for HTC/Sprint to port JB to the Evo 3D when it has been end-of-life for over 6 months already and has hardware features like 3D and WiMax 4G that are difficult to support.

[HTC EVO 3D] MistedEvo:
I've contacted them with a long ass professional text!
[HTC EVO 3D] Lothaen:
Evo 3D is a 2011 device was it not?
[HTC EVO 3D] RayTrue04:
Sure is. June/July 2011. Not sure exactly what month it came out.
[HTC EVO 3D] ramjet73:
Yes, and it is was evaluated as HTC said it would be (probably for about 30 seconds :() and did not appear on the list of devices that are going to get the 4.1.1/Sense 4+ update. That's history now.

ramjet73
[HTC EVO 3D] rafaelluik:
What list? HTC haven't published one until now.

EVO 3D is 2011's flagship, if it doesn't receive JB no other 2011 phone will.
[HTC EVO 3D] RayTrue04:
The Epic 4G Touch (GS2) will. Thing had so many leaked builds of jb for like a month n a half now. The latest build they patched the Exynos exploit. I doubt the Evo 3D will be getting JB which is why I'm upgrading my sisters phone to the LG Optimus G. She wants the Note 2 but I'm not spending that kind of money on her lol
[HTC EVO 3D] ramjet73:
The list in this article. It's not officially from HTC but football leaks all the RUU's and some people think that he works for HTC.

You can still hope for an official 4.1.1/Sense 4+ build for the Evo 3D if you want, but that seems a bit pollyanna to me at this point.

ramjet73
[HTC EVO 3D] rafaelluik:
I was talking about HTC phones only obviously...

@Football4PDA list only contains 2012 devices, that'd kill HTC statement that they'd evaluate 2011 devices, and EVO 3D is the flagship. I'd say there's enough chance in these terms, but not saying I'm 99% confident, I'm not. But I say we should keep asking for them for the update to JB until we hear an official no, there's no harm on trying.
[HTC EVO 3D] RayTrue04:
Then I apologize for the confusion. Maybe you should be a little more clear next time. That line clearly said no other 2011 phones. Didn't see (no 2011 HTC) phones in there...
[HTC EVO 3D] HTCLittleMonster:
I contacted HTC about it, and as usual, HTC's response was... well, like a HTC response.

They basically just typed out what they have on their website and put this

So, I'm assuming by what the guy said is that they aren't evaluating smartphones until the update is 100% rolled out? :S

I don't follow their logic, surely it'd make more sense for the company to test all the updates at the same time and roll them out together to keep their customers (especially after an appalling end to last year) - don't get me wrong, I'm a massive HTC fan and will stay with them either way, this just... irks me. :rolleyes:
[HTC EVO 3D] rafaelluik:
Well, they're giving priority to the newest devices... I don't think that's wrong, because people are paying more for them / being more supportive than us at this point (because we're staying with an older model - even though I bought it in May 2012).

The point is expressing to them we'd like the update, we'd evaluate HTC better as a company. That this would create a good connection between us and HTC brand, so we stay consumers in the next time we buy/recommend phones...
[HTC EVO 3D] HTCLittleMonster:
Don't get me wrong, I don't think its wrong that they do it in that order either. I just feel as though it'd make more sense to do all at the same time to, as you said, create a good connection with us and them.

The 2012 line is ridiculously expensive anywhere you look online, even eBay. So, it is understandable that they'd do it that way. I just thought that seeing as they're "Quietly brilliant" and are meant to be an innovative manufacturer, they'd support everyone.

Oh, well, we can but wait and see, right? :)
[HTC EVO 3D] ramjet73:
Did you guys read the actual text of HTC's statement about 2011 devices in their official Android 4.1 (Jelly Bean) FAQ:

Note that they don't say they will evaluate what 2011 products to upgrade, only that they will "consider our ability" to do those updates.

Realistically, what do you think their ability to do that is after the disastrous year they had in 2012? I'd be surprised if any 2011 models get official Jelly Bean updates since their engineers and developers are probably already focused on Key Lime Pie.

ramjet73
[HTC EVO 3D] Rage1ofakind:
Not really fussed about this anymore. ICS is standing strong on my EVO 3D. And once HTC release their new flagship device in the UK (M7) I'll be buying that straight away unless there's something else in the works (Tegra 4 phone? New Snapdragon 800??)
[HTC EVO 3D] oohaylima:
If you don't like sense, you can enjoy a fully functional Jelly Bean. As me, once a quad core comes out, I'm gonna start saving to upgrade.
[HTC EVO 3D] coal686:
Fully functional minus 3d of course. I'm still hoping that a dev ports the JB Sense 4+ release from the Ville (One S) once it becomes available.
[HTC EVO 3D] ramjet73:
It's been available for a while now. ;)

It must be a harder nut to crack than the older ROM's.

ramjet73
[HTC EVO 3D] coal686:
Thanks. I didn't realize that's what the guys were working on in that thread.
[HTC EVO 3D] rafaelluik:
Honestly I'm not so excited about Jelly Bean anymore. When you search for Project Butter you'll see that there doesn't seem to be improvements on resources usage, it's all about making the animations faster and more GPU/CPU intensive to do so.

Also, the only other feature I'd be interested in would be the lock screen widgets. Does anyone know how they work on updated HTC One series HTC Sense lock screen?

I really wished HTC added back more quick settings (though by now I've already downloaded Notification toggles from Play Store) and not to mess with the recent apps on notifications area that I use a lot to unlock into (since ICS you can pull the notification bar right from the lock screen if you don't set a lock).
[HTC EVO 3D] Lothaen:
Funny HTC removed quick settings and Google added them in (4.2)
[HTC EVO 3D] rafaelluik:
I just can't stand the idea of leaving the app I'm in and stacking the settings screen above it and in the multi-tasking because of the lack of quick settings. I can't understand why HTC removed that feature.
[HTC EVO 3D] unstoppable_punk_brainiac:
Well,motorola rolled up updates, now lg , sony , samsung....... And htc is still at it's htc one series... What a great company.

Is funny how since the ics, i never sow a update for stability of bug fix, and we still have 4.0.3 and other htc phones got 4.0.4......
[HTC EVO 3D] johnnyslt:
Maybe HTC is trying to let SENSE go, and come up with something new.
[HTC EVO 3D] rafaelluik:
????? What are you talking about?

The Sony models which received JB are the high-end ones launched in Q4 last year!

Samsung rolled out the updates only to the high-end Galaxy S3 and Note 2 until now, and will be updating to Jelly Bean the S2 and Note "1" because they launched the S2 Plus and is aways re-launching the original S2 in different colors in some markets, and still sell it (as Apple still sells iPhone 4S, etc...) this is the reason.

What are the LG phones that received Jelly Bean? Optimus G and? In the case of LG it's even lammer because Optimus 3D and even the new model 3D Max are still on Gingerbread for example... Optimus 2X and Black just got their ICS updates... (I'm hoping and rooting they will threat their new line of phones better regarding software updates)

It's the current flagship getting updates on all those manufactures, not the ones from early 2011. So don't try to diminish HTC efforts to provide updates to its phones, because people saying they are bad at updating phones don't seem to have a clue or base of comparison to other manufacturers!
[HTC EVO 3D] RayTrue04:
Wow somebody defending HTC regarding their horrible support on the 3D. True fanboy till the death! Do you work for HTC? Whether you like it or not HTC has dropped the ball.

My 3D got like 2 updates while the GS2 saw what 5-6 updates and should be getting jellybean soon. Let's not even talk about how long it took my EVO LTE to get jellybean while Samsung was already offering it to almost everybody. Oh and Jellybean broke a lot of stuff on my EVO LTE, like proximity sensor for example.

When it comes to LG and those other manufacturers I don't care about their support. But companies like HTC and SAMSUNG have a record to keep as they're the big players in Android and have a big following. Sort of like how Apple has and updates even their crappiest devices. Mind you the 3D wasn't even EOL'ed when Jellybean was first made available last year!

There is no reason why we shouldn't have Jellybean besides the fact that HTC and Sprint said f you guys your device is a flop we on to the next! They didn't even want to give us ICS we got it all late due to all the customers *****ing at them about it... I think I'm done with my rant now, felt good to get that out :beer: :D
[HTC EVO 3D] ramjet73:
Not going to argue with you about the Jelly Bean update, but you either got the Evo 3D very late in its life cycle or you've miscounted the number of updates.

Here are the builds that have been released for the Evo 3D:

Gingerbread

1.07.651.1

1.11.651.2

1.13.651.7

2.08.651.2

2.17.651.5

ICS

2.89.651.2

Just want to keep the facts straight. ;)

ramjet73
[HTC EVO 3D] rafaelluik:
Making software updates costs money. The truth is no one should expect software updates like it's mandatory. These companies are being very generous to give us functionality not listed in the box of the product when we bought it without any extra charges. (bug fixes are a different matter though)

Just compare the profit of Samsung and HTC (the reports of decline in HTC profit are everywhere) and the life cycle of the devices (S2 and original Note still on market, S2 Plus...), it's clear to see how Samsung has reason and money to support their models (they're still selling them).

And I'm not that fanboy you're saying... I admire HTC because they've set some early Android user experience (better, customizable lock screen, home panels, effects, tabbed interface) and the build quality and design is unique! The performance of the phones is aways great and I was surprised to see One X faster than S3 on some tests after JB updates. But HTC having the best software days are getting in the past now. If you go back a single page in this thread you'll see some little things I really dislike on Sense 4.x+ like the removal of my quick settings, even happened at 3.6 :(. And some others I haven't posted here. New Sense 4.x+ makes me want to keep my EVO 3D forever or in the future switch to Sony or LG...
[HTC EVO 3D] RayTrue04:
Hmm according to sprint there's only been four updates for the 3D since release. I did get it like almost three months after its release and to top it off I got it for my sister so I'm not too sure how many updates she did without me knowing. But according to sprint your list seems off.

However looking this up it seems they're getting ready to drop a minor update on Valentines Day.

http://support.sprint.com/support/a...110615-165550?question_box=evo 3d&id16=evo 3d

---------- Post added at 11:48 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:41 AM ----------

Well when Google makes a policy that manufacturer's have to update their device in a 18 month time frame it sorts of makes it become mandatory. JellyBean was out before the 3D's 18 month ran out.

And why are they releasing another update if it cost soooo much money? Just to add sprint connections??
[HTC EVO 3D] rafaelluik:
POLICY? Is it on "Android developers terms"? haha....

I don't know why. Mine is an unlocked carrier-free version (I live in Brazil and the device is imported). But there's the reason, viewing from an outside angle, I believe: Sprint covered the HTC expenses with this minor update (or the contract between the two companies covered this). And minor update ≠ major update.
[HTC EVO 3D] RayTrue04:
Well then I hope sprint covers the update to jellybean for us and you get lost in limbo with your unlocked 3D on ics forever so you can haha @ that! :D

Maybe that update is another ics build to prepare it for jellybean sort of what like Samsung just did.
[HTC EVO 3D] bjones8515:
Off topic post, but HTC tweeted this pic about 30 min ago. It's 11:40 cst on my clock. Thoughts? http://twitpic.com/c34px8
[HTC EVO 3D] RayTrue04:
Somethings coming Feb 19. Their M7 announcement maybe?
[HTC EVO 3D] ramjet73:
Well Sprint may have lost track of the updates HTC provided and they distributed but there is firmware available for each of the builds I quoted so those are definitely updates in my book.

That February 14th update has me a little concerned. They are in the process of implementing degradation of service for VM users when 4G limits are reached and I'm wondering if that "Sprint connection optimization" has anything to do with that. It could definitely stand to be optimized, but I'm not sure that's really what Sprint has planned. :(

And if they are still issuing updates for ICS that's a pretty strong indication that they have no plans for JB on the Evo 3D since there were no updates for GB after ICS was released. Not that I ever though they did.

ramjet73
[HTC EVO 3D] RayTrue04:
Idk maybe they're not all official, one or two are probably leaks. Sprint never fails at listing their updates. All the updates for when I had my EVO 4G, Epic 4G, Epic 4G Touch, and Note 2 are accurate as can be with every ota that were released for them.

Sprint connection just picks the best connection for you. Basically try to connect you to wifi or 4G as much as possible to offload their 3G network. VM's degradation should not have anything to do with Sprint Evo users.
[HTC EVO 3D] VictoriousShooter:
Maybe its the jellybean update for the msm8660 series.

.

.

.
[HTC EVO 3D] ramjet73:
Well, Sprint's website shows 5 updates for the Evo 3D counting the one coming out on February 14th so that's still significantly more than the two that you quoted.

My point was that we should state facts not feelings when criticizing the vendors for the support of their devices.

ramjet73
[HTC EVO 3D] RayTrue04:
Four updates. One is the stock build so it doesn't count as it wasn't an update. The other hasn't even been released yet. And who knows, with our luck it might just get pulled due to issues and user complaints.. Sprint connections isn't too user friendly sometimes and has issues. I did say like 2 updates because I wasn't sure but I know it wasn't that many. I was off by two and I was just being sarcastic smh.
[HTC EVO 3D] ramjet73:
According to this list the February 14th update will be the sixth for the Evo 3D so I guess Sprint does lose track of the updates occasionally. ;)

And if it's the difference between HTC being as proactive with updating their phones as the other vendors or not I don't consider that insignificant.

ramjet73
[HTC EVO 3D] RayTrue04:
Nice find. They did miss one the security patch. Oh well my point still stands and I want JB! :p
[HTC EVO 3D] dastin1015:
I'd have to look at the kernel source for the Valentine's Day update to say if it is a preparation or not. Like I've stated in other threads HTC stuck with PMEM memory allocation instead of updating to ION memory allocation in the kernel. ION is a requirement for Android 4.1+

私のエピック4Gのタッチから送られてきた。
[HTC EVO 3D] VictoriousShooter:
If we do get a 4.1 update, I really am curious as to what sense 3.7 will be like, since we will absolutely not be getting sense 4+
[HTC EVO 3D] ipsuvedi:
Sooner Or Later EVO 3D will get JB update!!

In last survey HTC was awarded as No 1 Update giving company, many of you might already know. so i think Htc surely give our EVO at least one update. in other hand our evo is Htc's special flafship (3d), it has 1 gb ram and of course 1.2 GH process (stock), which will prevent htc from making pretends like Samsung that "it has not sufficiant hardwar es to support JB"

So, I think Official JB for our evo is coming soon:good::cool:
[HTC EVO 3D] :
That is exactly why they won't update to jb. Because EVO has good hardware.

If they update it to jb then this phone becomes really similar to one s(for normal users), 1gb ram, dual-core CPU with similar speed, same screen. Than a lot of people will just decide to buy EVO cause its a lot cheaper than one s.

That's exactly why they didn't give us sense 4, and will never even consider updating to jb.

Just my opinion....
[HTC EVO 3D] unstoppable_punk_brainiac:
Actually, this is not true, since you can't buy a brand new evo 3d, htc stopped makeing them for almost a year.

So ,you will buy new phone for better gpu, better camera, better sound, better sense experinence, nfc , better screen, better battery, new features... etc etc

So they know you will buy a htc device after a while, cause of hardware or software limitations... All they are doing now is make your experience better by updateing your phone, so next time when you think of buying a phone , you will know you will get software updates from htc, so you are not left behind..... This way they make you stay with them.

If they make jb for this phone, i don't any reason why my next phone will not be a htc :)
[HTC EVO 3D] rafaelluik:
I meant Sprint (and the other carriers that have the model) would be covering the expenses of the update, not paying specifically for it for their own only.

The support, to Sprint, that HTC gives via software updates as Sprint wishes, the support period is defined by their contract (unless Sprint really needs an off-contract update and thinks it's really important or they need an urgent update and it isn't defined in the terms then would pay for it separately) - this is my imagination...
[HTC EVO 3D] ipsuvedi:
Lets Wait and Watch...19 Feb is coming near...it could be Cricial for our device!!
[HTC EVO 3D] RayTrue04:
So has anyone got 2.94.651.4 pushed to them yet?
[HTC EVO 3D] VictoriousShooter:
THERE'S A NEW OTA???????
[HTC EVO 3D] ramjet73:
Sounds like a pretty minor update:

It sounds like there are no firmware updates included, only minor software updates, and the main purpose is to reduce load on the Sprint network.

ramjet73
[HTC EVO 3D] unstoppable_punk_brainiac:
+1 :)) Is there a new ota? Or is he just trolling around?
[HTC EVO 3D] RayTrue04:

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blackdragoon:
Hi all,

I just got a Galaxy S3 a few weeks ago and decided to keep my unlocked Cappy as my backup/beater phone.

However, I can seem to get my Cappy to recognize my new LTE micro SIM. I've tried positioning it many, many times. Keeps giving me some error along the lines of "the inserted SIM is not valid" or something. Even tried using a micro SIM adapter, which ended up breaking some contact pins in the SIM slot so I had to replace that.

The Captivate recognizes all of the regular sized SIMs I put in it though. I thought the contact points on the micro SIM were the same as on the regular sized ones; just smaller in size due to less plastic being used around the contacts.

Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] silvertag:
1) Micro sim is not regular sim

2) Cappy is not LTE compatible. You can't use a LTE sim in a non-LTE phone. Its a completely different SIM compared to 3-4G sims
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blackdragoon:
Darn. Thanks for the clarification.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] b-eock:
The 3G/4G part is correct but if you get a holder/expander (IDK even know if they exist) to fill the extra space and it's a 3G card it should work, they are the same in contact points just less plastic for the micro sim...
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blackdragoon:
This is what I thought, and I got a micro SIM adapter (pretty much a small tray that you put a micro SIM into and the tray fills in the shape of a regular sized SIM) but it was too tight of a fit and ended up breaking some pins in the SIM slot. After replacing that, I tried repositioning my micro SIM so that the contacts would contact the pins accordingly but no matter how much I tried, my phone wouldn't detect it.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] b-eock:
You are using an LTE SIM of course it wont work...
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blackdragoon:
Well, I also tried with a non-LTE micro SIM, but that was before I got clarification in a previous post that a micro SIM wasn't exactly like a regular SIM.

[General Questions and Answers] GabyBernstein:
Hi

Flashed the RootBox v2.2 ROM (a combo of AOKP, CM10 + tweaks) a while ago, and some support is missing. :eek:

Couldn't find answers in the dedicated developer's thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1806401

Nor here.

1. Long press on home screen doesn't bring up the shortcuts/widgets menu, so cannot create shortcuts fast.

2. Cannot record a call (no mic button on the dialer).

3. No voice recording built-in ICS/JB app - had to search the Play and download one.

4. Cannot increase the amount of home screens - have only 5.

5. Cannot minimize the home screens in order to see them all and select one. Used to do that using a pinch gesture.

6. Cannot go straight from the first home screen backwards to the last (i.e. recursive support).

Happy for any tips, :good:

Cheers, Gaby
[General Questions and Answers] steven8590:
It depends what launcher did you choose. If you choose Apex you can do number 4 and 5 for sure. In apex go on apex settings, homescreen and then manage screens and you can add and remove how many screens you want and choose which to set as default.

When it comes to gestures such as pinch to preview you can enable it in gestures but I do not know whether you need the pro version.

Regarding question 6 I do not know what you mean.

Apex has question 1 as well.

If I am not mistaken AOKP does not support call recording.

Hope it helped you
[General Questions and Answers] GabyBernstein:
Thanks!

Indeed I've installed the default launcher. I'll install the Apex as you suggested.

Re Q #6, I meant I couldn't scroll backwards from the first home page straight to the last.
