Did everyone see the article on Engadget today or is this old news to everybody?
I'm pretty excited for the perks of having a large screen and awesome specs.

Based on my limited experience with HTC so far, there isnt a chance in hell that the evo will get 3.0
I'm in agreement. But I see there's already another thread with this topic so if there's a mod out there kind enough to delete this thread, since I'm retarded, I'd appreciate it.

I really don't think HTC will just stop developement and not give the Evo 3.0 They updated the hero to 2.1
I'd bet we'll get 3.0 this year on our evo, but not from sprint/htc, but from our fine developers here. then a 3.0 offical release spring 2011ish...again all just speculation.

This may be old news but I thought I'd throw it out there anyways. From what I've read the Android 3.0 gingerbread SDK is supposedly to be released next week. I'm not really a developer of Android applications as of right now but it still seemed note worthy.
3.0 is gingerbread. I suspect your source is wrong.

I wasn't thinking straight.
Thats cool, because now we should see all new features?
Or it isnt the final Gingerbread SDK?
Cool!
What's your source on this?
It may be true. Gingerbread final is promised at the end of the year, so a beta SDK will probably pop up somewhere soon. Google's goal is to have as many apps ready to be installed as possible.
Does any one know if the epic will be updated to 2.3 or any rumors. About that?

Kind of the wrong section of the forum to ask, but doubtful none the less. Most phones only get one legit update.
I haven't forgot about you guys. Today we had a meeting with XDA owners via telephone. Were just getting everything ready before we make a huge announcement. I told you guys I'm NOT going to let you guys down. Just be a little patient.
Thanks

Would rather hear about a froyo source release for our phone than a official froyo release to be honest. Our devs do way better work with source than what samsung would release as official froyo. Look at the amazing work that noobl has done without source for froyo and we have an awesome dev that even has released work of an miui port (which I am most excited for coming from an htc incredible with a fully working port).

Samsung John, thank you so much for making a connection with the people at XDA and being less transparent with the end user. However even if you are coming out with an announcement, could we have at least an eta. After a while of hearing nothing but coming soon, something along the lines of coming in a month, 6 weeks, 2 weeks, whatever would be much appreciated with any announcement. I am not even talking about froyo, I am talking about anything in general. But again thank you for coming and creating this channel with XDA.
I read this on Phandroid today. I have no idea who this person is, but they have some type of Honeycomb port on their evo. It's very buggy, but they have a link to download it. Just wanted to share the information and this person's website for everyone to look at.

3.0 on the EVO would make me one happy camper
That would be awesome. 3.0 on the EVO would make me one happy camper
Very cool.
Very, very cool.
Can't wait til a competent dev gets their hands on that!!
Hopefully the time frame if a daily driver in the next month is correct. Downloading it atm just to mess around with

So I just saw this article from a week or two ago and I dunno if anyone else has seen it but according to AndroRev.com, the legendary Virus is cooking up a Sense 3.5 Rom for the 3D and our OG Evo, supposedly with "wimax [...] even on the table". While 3.5 on the OG wasn't explicitly mentioned, I felt the connotation that it was coming. Anyone else excited?
Good to know. Thanks

I've been following the ics project since after my birthday (11/27/11) and a lot has changed but when it comes to (FFC) it came to me that its not gonna work till maybe after the summer or never, whenever HTC gives out the code bit what's your opinion about the ics for the EVO 4G?
Sent from my PC36100 using xda premium
This doesnt belong in the Android Development section, belongs in GENERAL.
My bad I thought it was general at first. The system will automaticly do it for me as usual.
Sent from my PC36100 using xda premium
ummm my opinion on it is that if they dont want to they shouldnt. It will give us an awesome rom but more importantly that means our wonderful devs are learning stuff. this means that in the future they can use these experiences to help them in work or in other aspects of there personal lifes. so dev on guys you are doing great
Why in the world should they stop working on ICS? It makes little sense.
Deck and Kang and others are making great ICS ROMs for lots of phones, not just the EVO4G.
htc will release the code.. because it is an open source project. when is the question, not if.
ics will come..

The OS code is open source. The device drivers are not last I knew. So no, HTC does not have to release driver code.
HTC may release the FFC code for our OG's as soon as they sell enough of their newer devices.
They seem to be dragging their feet in releasing the official ICS updates for the Evo 3D and the Evo Design when they said they would, but they're holding it back, why? Cuz they want to sell enough of the One series models before they officially update the older HTC models that are scheduled to be updated with ICS.
Its kinda crappy of HTC to do that, but hey, they're a "for-profit" business.
But in answer to your question, heck no they shouldn't stop developing ICS for our OG Evo's! This sh*t is fun as hell.

what is the point of this thread? why is that a question? sorry no disrespect.
Yeah, I don't get why a thread was started for this. But why should devs abandon ICS on Evo? Because they can't get FFC to work!? I've been on ICS since the minute they got camera working (around Xmas), and could NEVER imagine going back to GB or Froyo (well, ...maybe froyo).
Keep up the awesome work, all who are working on ICS for Evo.

That's my point. This thread makes no sense. Ics development for evo is extremely active. Don't understand the creation of this thread.

Hahaha. Let's see... These devs have given us some of the smoothest ROMs our phones have ever seen, with incredible battery life and cutting edge features...
But if I can't look at myself in my phone with a FFC, what's the point??

The evo is EOL(end of life) HTC doesn't have to support it any longer meaning they won't release any source for it as they are not working on ICS for the device. Hardware mfgs may release source for the same hardware in other devices, like they did with the adreno or the devs may code their own drivers. But don't expect HTC to do a damn thing for the evo, period.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
All I'm saying we have a lot of people love the ics Rom but some people hate it cause no 4G. But let me tell one thing about the ics it came a lot since then and like some people who are poor or they don't make a lot of money, its hard to keep up with ics roms when the last two months the biggest change was 4.0.4 which is like starting all over again. Don't get me wrong with the debate about their work, its freaking amazing, but the biggest break through will be the ffc. Closest to that is from a horse ride to a plane ride experience
Sent from my PC36100 using xda premium
I don't think that they should stop working on the ICS ROM's. I went from Sense to Ice Cream Sense to ICS and having ICS on my phone is like having a brand new phone. We don't have 4G in our area, and the front facing camera I hardly used. I am using gummyWorms ICS right now and so far had no major problems with it. There are minor glitches sometimes but, that is no big deal. I hope that the ICS developers can get everything working and I know that it will take time to do so. I appreciate all of their hard work in bringing us some ICS goodness to our phones.
