I think if there were news this forum would be exploding.

If you don't have the patience go get you some RUU action. I don't have a link, just Google it or search the forum using the "search" feature.

Here you go....

BTW Nova works great and very smooth as a launcher from what I've seen so far. Just turn off wallpaper scrolling. Had some redraw problems with this launcher that I fixed by forcing portrait on the screen panes.

Quick tip.....when you plug in your phone into your computer it will see two additional disk drives. Stick the RUU into the one with 16 gb. You always see instructions about sticking it into the root of your sdcard but it is partitioned into two and that instruction is pretty obtuse. Disable fastboot before you do this.

It's not obtuse its accurate. One drive is the internal memory (usually labeled HTC something something by the computer). The other one is the external SD card you can physically move and swap with another if necessary (its usually labeled unknown). Two separate memory cards. When people say put it on the root of your SD they mean the external SD card the one you can remove and don't put it in any folder. Verizon (or HTC) probably installed it for you but if you lift up the battery you'll see its easily removed and swappable with another card.

We use the external sd card because it does not get wiped during the ROM or RUU instalation process.

O and anyone thinking about flashing the leak, don't worry about danger too much. Just make sure the phone is fully charged and you have nothing to worry about. Just for the love of god don't take the battery out while it's flashing lol.

O and make sure to flash it twice to avoid issues.

Mine were labeled drives 'M' and 'N', so yes it was obtuse to me.

**lilmyssSlim** · 07-01-2012, 09:23 PM

**Mikem8067** · 07-01-2012, 11:34 PM

so, here is the deal. Verizon doesn't care if or when you as a end user gets ics. They already have your money and they have no in incentive to provide a better service. Yes, it would be great to get ics in a timely matter but it is not going to happen. You would be better off if you enjoyed your phone for the next 6 months. Then check in and see if maybe. Vwz got around to upgrading the OS. Till then quit staring at your navel... And get over it...

Sage advice, but we just want them to keep their word.

**joedirt2217** · 07-02-2012, 06:28 AM

Just a note: MAKE A COPY OF YOUR INTERNAL MEMORY, especially If you are going to use something like MY Backup Pro to backup all your apps and data. Installing the RUU will wipe it all out, at least it did for me. (Luckily I did this before flashing...)

Using windows? Guess the mac labels them differently.

Feeling like an ***** here, I have downloaded the zip file from like five different sources and every time I go to unzip windows says it is an invalid file. Does the extension need to be renamed? Link to instructions?

**lilmyssSlim** · 07-02-2012, 07:39 AM

Lol.ok...(turning away from navel)

Well that depends. Is it the exe file your downloading or the zip. If it's the zip you don't unzip it, you just transfer it to you SD card. I'll try and link full instructions when I get back to a real computer.

I should know this link by heart by now:
[How-To] Flash a leaked RUU

**micwrite** · 07-02-2012, 08:58 AM

Good friend talked me into the Rezound then turned around and bought a Maxx for himself. He has to text me over the weekend bragging about the ICS love he just got.. That was his last text. Apparently the OTA ICS bricked his Maxx...so sweet..

**jakedsnk** · 07-02-2012, 08:59 AM

Sounds like Karma??
