Will EVO get gingerbread 3.0?

[Mike20PR]

Gingerbread is supposed to end 3rd party UI's...

So come to think of it... HTC to update a fully customized SenseUI version to an updated Vanilla one? Not likely....

I doubt they would make that big of a jump user experience wise

 

[PedroTheGoat]

I would definitely be okay without Sense. I tried Launcher Pro, but noticed some significant battery drain. Plus, some of my third party widgets didn't work with it.

 

[Beezzy]

Yeah it will. Requirements that AC/Engadet/Phandroid etc have talked bout is that it needs at least a 1GHZ Processor, 512 RAM, and a 3.5 inch screen.

Nexus One
HTC EVO 4G
DROID Incredible
DROID X
DROID 2
Galaxy S Line: Vibrant, Captivate, Epic, Fascinate

Are all the current phones that meet those requirements.

FYI the 1GHz CPU is a recommendation, not a requirement.

"Yesterday have a very good conversation and some clarifications. 1 Ghz, 512 Mb etc its not minimal requirments but recommended one"

Will EVO get Honeycomb?

Sorry I had to do it.

Gingerbread isn't 3.0.

Okay short and sweet.. Will Evo get Gingerbread 3.0? I have decided I will get the evo over the epic in a month. Just curious..

It's a sure thing EVO won't get Gingerbread 3.0, since Gingerbread is Android 2.3. Android 3.0 is Honeycomb. If I had to guess, I'd say the EVO will stay with FroYo. Gingerbread is geared to tablets, and I don't see the EVO getting Honeycomb at almost a year on the market when it ships. I could be wrong, though, as I notice the Nexus X is shipping with Gingerbread, and it is a handset.

Guess you're a bit out of the loop I'd say...

I really do love my EVO but if I see something new and shiny I just may do the impulse thing and buy it.....haha

FYI, I'm sure everyone knows Gingerbread != 3.0?

Gingerbread will be released as Android version 2.3

 

[add309]

i think that the evo will be the it device on sprint, it will be the device that will get the most updates and os upgrades then any other device on sprint... for sure will get gingerbread and most likely honeycomb
