uhhhhhhh... interesting to see ViewSonic coming to the battleground

Should be interesting. Also, I had not heard of a ViewSonic phone before this article, and I am not sure if I am liking its design.
Nonetheless, based on what you said, it's good to see others come along and hopefully compete with Samsung, especially since so many people do not like or want a Samsung phone - other than to have Samsung's beautiful phone screen.

it doesn't work that way you see...
we on SNS got 2.3 before any body else
including the old HTC N1 which are still stuck on 2.2 officially
unofficial ROM cooks of course released 2.3
so chances are we'll see the same with 2.4 or 3.0

I've seen two(2) videos showing 2.4 in the NS.
One of them showed 2.4 build GRI06B.
I'm not sweating...
Look in the I9023 thread.
Worst case: more fragmentation with I9020 2.3 and I9023 with 2.4...both being NS. haha

Well, the way they're treating N1 owners right now is rubbing me the wrong way, but I'm willing to give them benefit of the doubt. In fact, they could be just waiting till 2.4 is ready to give it to both Nexus 1 and Nexus S. We buy the Nexus phones partly because we are supposed to be given updates on a first priority basis. If Google decides to hold back 2.4 from us for another phone, they will have lost an Android supporter in me.

They already have an Android Device the "g Tablet". Although from what I have read the reviews say the screen sucks (poor viewing angle), surprises me since that is what they do. On another note the g Tablet has Android 2.2 and nVidia Tegra 2

I'd be shocked if we didn't get the 2.4 update, at the time of its launch. Especially since 2.4 doesn't seem to be Ice Cream, but rather a touch of Honey glazed over Gingerbread.
While I am kind of new to Android (and smart phones in general), I cannot see Google keeping this update from us NS users. Although, I am a little surprised that the N1 hasn't seen Gingerbread yet (OTA from Google that is).
Just curious, how many updates did the N1 get from the time of its launch, and what Android version did it start with (Eclair or Froyo?).

I'm really surprised the N1 hasn't seen GB officially yet. I would be curious to see 2.4

Android 2.4 coming April; Google Kills 2.3 Gingerbread Update

Check out this article from Android Headlines,
http://androidheadlines.com/2011/02...pril-google-kills-2-3-gingerbread-update.html

Google has almost regularily done two updates a year. That doesn't mean they've 'killed' 2.3, in the same way that 2.3 didn't kill 2.2.
HTC has always been ~6 months late with their updates. So people will get 2.3 when 2.4 is released, and 2.4 when the next is released. etc. etc. Of course, other manufacturers are different.

Rampant speculation. Calling shens on that. They'll be sure to get some hits on their website with that headline though.

"Has anyone found news about 2.4 for us???"
Prepare.

speculation: ice cream is just a guess

Personally I believe that Google was planning on releasing 2.3 as Gingerbread (beyond just the Nexus S) and something changed their minds. Hence the delay for the N1.
So they are making some changes / improvements / whatever and are going to push 2.4 out as the widely released Gingerbread.

Yeah there was a delay, but Google did release 2.3 as Gingerbread already. They can have two version with the same codename e.g. Eclair (2.0/2.1). Coincidentally 2.0 was only ever released to one device before 2.1 came out a few months later.

You know, who knows but I do find it odd that we haven't gotten an OTA yet.
I think they know they screwed up with dual cores and lack of tablet support with the new devices coming to light in coming weeks. They are forced to rush honeycomb to market to keep up. Now they don't want to release 2.3 because its useless.
Supposedly 2.4 will be keep devices from separating the android market keeping apps compatible with all the latest versions before they release anything as upgrades.

If that article is accurate, that means even more waiting... while i'm certainly not going to switch to a different platform, other people might do so (read: switch to iCrap Phones).

*coff coff* April *coff coff*
BTW, if this news is TRUE, it means 2.3 has been something like 2.0 on the Milestone, never exit for all the other phones, do you remember?

Good news!
I didn't like so much 2.3, it doesn't have any major UI difference over 2.2 nor new major goodies

I'm only assuming they're adding a few things to 2.4, like perhaps Google Music, hardware acceleration and dual core support. From there they will release 2.4 as Gingerbread(like how eclair was 2.0, and 2.1), then we see updates from manufacturers based on the 2.4 build.

I think one of the reasons of gingerbread delay has to do with the "wonkiness" issue when making/receiving phone call

well.. we have to stop waiting for 2.3 for our nexus one?

It will probably take them at least a month (unfortunately)

The 'Very Soon' didn't really sound like 'In a couple days'. I may agree with above. About 2-4 weeks is my prediction (purely speculation)
If I bought a GE I'd almost feel like I got duped - considering the major selling point was the timely stock updates.

2-4 weeks is timely compared to how it works now.

It does suck for those who actually got fooled with the GPe devices. It SHOULDN'T take them that long as they clearly have been working on it since the leaks have surfaced. I'm just ready to laugh when we see a partially working AOSP 4.3 build up before HTC releases the official OTA. :laugh:

Well it only has been a couple hours since they announced it. The whole point of the GE was to get updates similar to the Nexus devices and if HTC can at least release it this week i will be happy . If not, this (sadly) is my last HTC phone as i have had several bad experiences with them already (but that is a whole different topic).

My window to return is today, so I may opt to return it, in favor of waiting to see what the Moto X announcement will be.
If that turns out to be a mediocre device then I may just opt to hop back on the One.
My biggest issue is paying $640 and not getting updates for weeks, but as already said here, it's only been a few hours lol.

4.3 doesn't sound like much of an update. A lot of little stuff, not much of which will be apparent to the user unless you let your kids use your phone all the time.
How fast this gets rolled out to the GE phones is not something to get exercised about, IMO.

To be honest i don't think the Moto X will be any better as far as updates go. It will most likely ship with 4.3, but it is also a big step back as far as specs go (according to the leaked spec sheets)

I mostly care about the performance improvements. Other than that i won't use any of the multi-user features (i think that is pretty much the only new "feature" added as everything else seems to be under the hood optimizations and/or improvements.)

If there are perceptible performance enhancements, that's a different issue. But I guess we won't know until it starts rolling out.

Google Edition to get 4.3 OTA Update

So saw this on a tech news site I frequent, kind of jealous of them since I like Sense and will be sticking to ROMs based of that. But the 4.3 update will roll out for the Google Edition phones. At the very bottom of the article.

Galaxy S4 and HTC One Google Play Editions will get the update soon, but no precise timeline was specified.

I'd be willing to put my money on CyanogenMod or AOKP having 4.3 out first. However, the whole point of the Google Editions was to get an almost Nexus experience. If HTC takes more than two or three weeks, it's a complete fail.
I'm hoping to see it within a week, but I'm definitely not counting on it.

I am really curious about the 4.3 AOSP update, maybe some 4.2.2 AOSP bugs will get ironed out automatically since it has a bunch of driver updates and a new bluetooth stack (read -> BT incall issues).

Totally agree anything but a very fast update from both Samsung or HTC will only further piss off customers who brought it thinking they would get more timely updates.
Nice and easy if you want the fastest updates get a nexus or a custom rom nothing else comes close imho.

If it fixes all the little bugs from 4.2.2 with bluetooth (my car does not like my One whatsoever!) then I for one will be very happy with that.

Yes, but the AOSP ROMs are going to be very buggy and I cannot stand a ROM that is not perfect.

Exactly. I want a stock 4.3 kernel that "just works" and I don't want to worry about problems. I don't mind waiting a few weeks for it. 4.3 isn't even a big update.

I have a Google Edition and paying $640 for a phone, you'd expect them to at least have some kind of announcement of when that will be rolled out. If it will take weeks, I can deal with that, but not knowing is not making me happy either.
I knew going into it that it wouldn't be instant, but I also didn't expect it to be a non-existent date like any other update.
I'm strictly speaking OTA btw, and not custom roms.

At least they say that GE Ones will get 4.3 before Sense Ones. I assume it's less work for them given how similar the GE ROM is to the Nexus ROMs vs all the extra crap they have to update with Sense.
The question is how much HTC will prioritize the GE phones, given that it must be a small percentage of the Ones they sold (little do they know that quite a few of the "Sense" phones people bought have been converted to "GE" phones ).

Yeah, I was mostly kidding. My point is more that, while they probably know, they will act like they don't know (refuse to acknowledge or support converted phones).
Especially because they will have to make assumptions about the number of phones out there running Sense vs GE and will likely do that purely based on sales numbers (which don't take into account any converted phones).

The HTC One, will for sure be behind on updates considering the Nexus is the Google line. Nexus first then S4 then the One. Money market system.. we all know Apple and Samsung lead that pack.. HTC is behind Sammy. That's how I will see it coming.

That's completely ridiculous. Even without having to adapt Sense or go through a kafka-esque certification process like Verizon certification, HTC still needs to perform integration testing before issuing the update. Any joe blow can hack together an untested build and put it out on the net.

Android 5.0 in this fall?

Will we see Android 5.0 in this fall? What's new with android 5? If Google releases it in this fall, I wonder why they released android 4.3 last week.

Yep, my sources confirmed it will launch on October 25th at 10:25 AM PST - also it adds the ability to run iOS and blackberry apps (believe it or not!)
Also my sources said google released 4.3 last week just to trick the general population into thinking 5.0 is not coming.
:good:

I think Google has it ready but is just trolling us. Everyone was way too excited so they sent out a minor update. Lol
Sent from my HTC One

No 5.0 will not come, they will update gradually until about 4.5 or so and it will be Jelly Bean all that way. Then after that it will be 5.0. Since google is moving all their features to apps in playstore they have no need for major updates instead they can keep doing these small.

Considering some people are still on 4.1.2 waiting on 4.2.2 and even the Google Edition hasn't received 4.3 yet, I think it's a bit premature to have a thread with wild speculation about an Android iteration that's likely many months away for this device.
