We have so many ROM's for the G2 but no MT4G ROM's yet...what's going on devs? Show the MT4G some love please...I love my G2 and that's why I'd rather keep it in stock for when something happens to my MT4G...
Might be because we're still waiting for HTC to release the kernel?!!

Jesus, the MT4G hasn't even been out two weeks yet and people are already like this. There will be roms but no developer is going to want to develop until they have the kernel source which will be released as htc has to release it they just don't have to have a set date or say when they will release it.
Just give it time.
HTC gives the source the devs will come...
Be patient... there is already Cyanogenmod in the works and as soon as the kernel source gets released there will be alot more work done to it. The phone has barely been out 2 weeks... give it time.
i was hoping with the mytouch being so similar to the desire hd that alot of that stuff would work with little to no modification like the z to g2 roms... is that true or are they not as close as i thought? i know they use different networks and have different rear cameras but what else is different about them hardware wise?
Found this in Phandroid.... http://phandroid.com/2011/02/17/coming-this-spring-android-2-3-for-the-htc-desire/
No announcement for Legend though.
w00t! Desire gets Gingerbread! Can't wait for it to come out!
dont ...
don't hold your breath for the improvements it's not really worth it especially for htc
download the 2.3 keyboard and you got 1/3 of the update
as 2.3 is mainly NFC support(dosnt apply) new keyboard(i person like htc's better cuz of the content text prediction) and improved copy and past

Without a Legend S, I don't see much hope for a Ginger upgrade.
Not gonna happen.

I don't understand HTC... First what does that mean to use the same name of their concurrents for their new phones ??? Desire "S" ? wildfire "S" ?
serioulsy, are they thinking that people will buy their phone cause they thing of the SGS or the NS ?
Second, a new desire, a new wildfire, and no new Legend ? WTF ? It's the best design they got among their phones, and they still do some crappy plastic phone (ok it's a bit strong, not crappy).
A new Legend, more slim, maybe a bit bigger screen, new proc but still in one piece of aluminium and here we go, they would have sell that more than they will sell the wildfire "S" !
Anyway, the gingerbread roms will be available soon for Legend. There is CM7 RC, and when the wildfire S come out, some SENSE ROM will for sure be released...
Thanks to the the great developers we have the chance to have in the community !! Thx you all.
i think that Legend update will be announced... for me it about 85%
maybe after this spring
You remember how long it took HTC to announce an update to FroYo (It was about half a year after Google announced 2.2)
So if HTC will update the Legend to 2.3 it will probably be summer before they release it.
heard that a lot of devs don't think 2.3 is worth the R&D, so are waiting for 2.4.
The desire out sold the legend 10 fold on release this forum is bearly alive compared to the desire's. The wildfire sold like hot cakes because of the price so unless they priced the legend at £250-£275 it would fail just like this 1 did.
Don't get me wrong I would like to see a legend s but look at it from a marketing point of view an you will see why it makes no sense at all.

I think that 2.3.2 is a big possibility for Legend, why you ask?
Well it is simple. Wildfire S is almost a clone of legend (600mhz, 3.2" and 480x320 screen) so the software will probably be easy to port over to Legend.
now the problem is operators. Do they rather want us to buy a new handset or upgrade.
yup... Agreed, the Legend forum is barely alive. There is only 2 almost perfected rom that is available. Unlike the desire forum, there's lots of goodies there =(
IMHO, update the htc legend to 2.3 (2.4 too) will not be.
Sorry for my english, please.
If we get 2.3 it will be down to the great devs here on xda not HTC. 2.3 was out before HTC released froyo for the legend so not much chance of them bothering.
Sent from my HTC Legend using XDA App
Why make these claims? They could very well turn round and give us a special release of 2.3 with the new Sense for the special 'few' who got the Legend, ya just never know!
My view is simple: Wait and see, and not make claims about us not getting 2.3. How many of you would still use 2.3 and HTC Sense? Most of us here are running custom ROM's anyway which don't use Sense....
Just saying...

Not for Voda Legends
For those who're desperate to try out 2.3 and have rooted their Legends and are also capable of flashing a ROM, you can of course try out the CyanogenMod 7 nightlies. They're based on 2.3 unless I'm grossly misinformed.
When CM7 is finished, I may well give it a try, provided it's not a giant clusterbuck of a mess compared to blay0's ROMs...
I just want the new notification drop down down menu and the re arrangeable home screens from the new sense ..

I'm running CM7 full 3 (oh, full 4's out) with the radio upgrade from the dev forums, and it's pure awsome. gingerbread googness. battery life and speed are off the charts.
blayo's rom is very good, but i gotta say CM7's... gingerbread.
you'll loose flash lite, but the novelty wore off quickly for me.
lets be honest, it's pants.
new HTC Legend user
Hi, I have a new HTC Legend and i have read your posts, so i know that i can´t upgrade to 2.3. But if i want install some small aplications i need do something like hack software like in a NOKIA devices??
I would like some help.
Thanks
the list included the following devices
HTC Sensation
HTC Sensation XL
HTC Sensation XE
HTC EVO 3D
HTC EVO Design 4G
HTC Amaze 4G
HTC Rezound
HTC Vivid
don't get shocked cause u didnt see Desire HD,htc said that this is the first list for devices that will get ics,and they will keep testing all other devices to see if is it possible to have ics,and will release a new list whenever testing is complete
in my openion this is how it goes,new devices will get it first,then they will say our dhd won't get it and finally they will release it =D
I hope!!!!
So? I love Sense, but I also have a HC tablet and let me tell you- the UI (ICS has virtually the same UI as HC) is brilliant. Once CM releases a build for DHD I'm dumping Sense and start using that.

I hope too!
Who needs official ICS with sense 2 when there's such a heaving dev community?
Well i think theyll release it for a newer phone of theirs, and the DHD/Inspire Devs will just port that release to our phones.. Lol
you guys seem to forget that XDA devs need a base to begin with, so the more bases and kernel sources HTC provides the better for us, for example before the WVGA sense 3.0 DHD/incredibleS and runny leaks all customs ports of sense 3 needed to resize the graphics which wasn't a walk in the park, equaly right now roms based on WVGA sense 3.0/3.5 are running so well because we already have Gingerbread kernel source from HTC
so yes even if we rely on custom roms we will always need a compatible base
the good news is that HTC committed to ICS on Sensation XL which is WVGA and has close specs including the same GPU/CPU and RAM as our DHD, a fully working port is almost guarranteed

i wish !! D
We don´t need official ics release, we only need to wait devs to port it, and sure will be better than official one....
Thanks devs.
Theres nothing stopping HTC from upgrading the Desire HD to sensation XL performance. If we can do it at Dev level like with Android Revolution, including upping the CPU to a safe level like 1.2 Ghz, then HTC can do it. They're just being picky.
we believe in our developers

I'm assuming this would mean an update to at least sense 3.6 as well. It would make little sense for htc to build several different versions of ics sense.

Yeah just read this on Phandroid, totally unexpected but a very welcome one!
Another things is that the Sensation XL will be released "soon after" the Sensation. So we will probably be getting custom ROM's based off Runnymede before the official one is released!
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
Good news, everyone!
finally its happening!!!
but i think that as always the cooked ROMS will be batter than the source
Why is everyone suprised!!
HTC is supporting devices up to 18 months of release, the DHD was sold on OCT 2010, furthermore we have enough evidence now of continuous support to their devices
the classic Desire: Eclair > Froyo > Gingerbread || it stops here because of the slow S1 and bottle-necked internal Memory
the DHD: Froyo > Gingerbread 2.3.3 sense 2.1 > Gingerbread 2.3.5 Sense 3.0 > upcoming ICS
Three major android updates! the only surprising part in this is actually our latest Sense 3.0 update which was unexpected, if you look at the Sensation and EVO3D both devices are still officially on the old slow QHD Sense 3.0, the Sensation has many leaked test firmwares including GB sense 3.5 and the beautiful ICS sense 3.6 but officially users are still waiting
and actually EVO3D owners received this as bad news, since they are slated to receive the ICS update in the same time frame as DHD owners given that the EVO3D is highend almost a twin the Sensation sans 3D, it's not really fair to make them wait
The EVO3D situation can be explained, i think it didn't sell so well, while the DHD is their biggest selling Android device so far, still being produced and sold, i doubt they will upset all it's users
as for Desire S owners saying DHD owners are lucky?! why the DHD/DesireS/IncredibleS are twins and we have been receiving the same updates, like the recent Sense 3.0 update
I've seen posts for the last few months with people nagging and saying its impossible ICS will come to DHD, XDA should make a sticky saying, yes people believe it already HTC currently offers the best Android updates/support
If Samsung made such announcement then i would be surprised!
I'm hoping the RCMIX3D team comeback and cook an ICS rom for the DHD.

That's why I really in love with my DHD and sold my Nexus S even after it received official ICS update and several good quality custom ROM based on official ICS (but I don't care, after all vanilla Android is really boring anyways even for ICS, HTC Sense is so much better, trust me ).
I guess that this would be the last major update (ICS 4.0) release by HTC. If HTC decides to release a new firmware beyond ICS, it would be a pleasant surprise for us and that time we will say it's time for DHD to go and welcome a new generation of DHD. ;-)

you honestly can not expect more support from HTC after a stable ICS, 4 major software update including 3 major android updates! no other manufacturer matches this!
The new generation of DHD is here, it will be announced on the 25th!
Their commitment in releasing ICS has definetely locked me into getting HTC all the way.
I mean , Motorola phones definetely has superior build,but their after market support sucks so much you can't even get BEYOND 1 major update for a phone. Don't even talk about Samsung....

This morning I thought something like "Everyone's buying the OX or the OS and the DHD is dying in history and I didn't even have it for 2 years. ".
But some minutes ago I looked into the Android dev forum again and suddenly... Trickdroid!
A friend had told me many stories about Trickdroid, how good and fast and everything it is and I just wanted to have it also. And now we have it!
Then went back to the forum - another new ROM!
Well, now I think that the DHD is having its second spring.
What do you think about it? Will the DHD ever die or will it become a phone like the HD2?
Sent from my HTC Desire HD using a ROM.
I have had an Inspire 4G(Desire HD for ATT) for a year and a half now. Thanks to the devs I can run Jelly Bean and ICS with sense on it. This phone may not live as long as the G1 but thanks to the devs here it will last alot longer than HTC would have allowed.:victory:
I have the same opinion about a phone. When you buy it make sure there is a XDA developer that work hard on it. If not is a dead or boring phone(see Iphone).
When DHD devs will leave us, than you can consider that the last days of this phone are coming.
Thanks again to all the devs that keep this phone alive.

That's exactly what I am thinking.
The DHD will die when the last Dev stopped working on it.
I hope that won't happen for a very long time, cause I really like that phone.
Not for now. I just got my inspire earlier this year and if I learn to dev well enough, I'll try my best to keep it going.
Sent from a dream.
I doubt it. The Inspire is still being sold by ATT. It has enough RAM and CPU and an HSPA+ radio so even a year from now it would still be an average mid-low range device. And new economy phones are still being released with lower specs than ours (albeit they have official ICS on them).
i am a g8 fan of stable roms . . . . So i used only ARHD. . . .
I was g8ly dissapointd when Arhd stopped updating and no new stable roms were there. . .
But yesterday i saw trickdroid. . . Stablest rom. . . Thank god. . . .
Now am damn happy. . . .
The HTC Desire HD is still going strong. Although I'm curious about Windows Phone 8 or the Samsung Galaxy Note II for my next phone, I'm still keeping and intend to keep the ROM list up-to-date for our Desire HD's. It's a quick way of keeping an eye on development.
One day it will .... but until then , ENJOY with the latest version of Android 4.1.1 on your DHD
I also thought about it before all this wave of ICS Sense ROMs,
Its a great opportunity to say thanks to Virtuous team that actually saved our community.
Without their amazing work of the kernel 3.0 we would all be still in GB or in a buggy ICS ROM that no one updates,
They totally freed the ICS Chakra that HTC couldn't do,
And now the water flows like a huge river.
I hope it will last for at least until we get a perfect ROM (Revolution should close that deal).
I like many thought the DHD would be more and more a dinosaur as time goes by with HTC dropping updates. However HTC did me a favour by doing this as it made me root my phone to try some of the great roms available here on XDA. Now my phone has a new lease of life thanks to all the hard working devs here!
I certainly will be keeping my DHD, one of the best phones (IMO) available and it can still hold it's own with the newer 'big boys' :good:
i believe its going to continue until android 5.0 or even 6.0 lolol
Having owned a Desire HD and now the One X (Tegra), I agree with most of you. The DHD has the hardware to support AOSP/CM builds for the next few iterations of Android yet to come. With the bloat of HTC Sense, its obvious that the DHD struggles. Thats why I exclusively used AOSP & CM builds.
If you read the XDA Portal, you would've seen recently that the G1, yes the G1, has JB. There are a good few issues. But it shows that with aging devices, not all is lost.
The key point is to enjoy our devices today, for what they have now, not for something that is not guaranteed for the future. For those who have recently got the Desire HD, its still a great handset. I enjoyed everyday of owning mine.
TL;DR - They DHD will die, but not for a long while yet.
I think the next era is coming to this epic device
Is Sense4 the last thing we can have?
No! Our great Devs is now working on Sense4.1/4.5 and it seems promising
