I seen it 10 times already this year and still no ICS, someone point me to the leak so I can get started!

It's floating all over man. Google it, it's not like trying to find the NORAD launch codes (which I'm pretty sure are just "password").

**leroybrute** · 07-25-2012, 09:05 PM

Yahoo! Yea I have seen it a few times also.

**piizzadude** · 07-25-2012, 09:08 PM

The only thing I see that is new here (besides the date changes) is that the update is only 292 MB. Coulda sworn the last leak was....let me look....yeah, 603 MB

I contacted Verizon about something else this evening and inquired about the ICS update while I was on the phone with them. A tech support representative named Josh told me that the ICS update for the Rezound has been approved by Verizon, and it is just a matter of time before the release. He said that no one at his level really knows the release date, but believes that it will be "sooner rather than later." He also committed to the fact that the Rezound will get the update and said that Verizon had always committed to this, and never wavered from that commitment. His remarks seem to corroborate the info that is shown in the gottabemoblie post linked above by Tmaybin.

Josh also stated that, based on internal speculation at Verizon, they believe that the reason for the delay in the upgrade is because when the ICS upgrade was almost ready to roll out, as Android 4.0.4., Google released 4.0.5. Verizon thought it better to delay a little bit and just do the upgrade to 4.0.5 directly rather than do another OTA update later. But, again his words, "the changes from 4.0.4 to 4.0.5 were not inconsequential." They took longer to prepare for roll out than Verizon had anticipated.

This is sufficient for me to remain happy with my Rez as is, and wait patiently for the OTA to roll out. I just think that it is unfair for HTC to have to take so much public wrath about this when it was a Verizon decision that caused the delay. But the decision made sense (no pun intended). Verizon's only mistake in the whole thing was that they kept silent about it. If they had simply kept us all informed about the progress of the upgrade there would have probably been fewer irate people griping about it.

I just read this and I don't get what people are excited about. It clearly states "TBD" without an official date. To be determined is not something to hopeful about at all. "In Queue" is another awful thing. Have you ever gamed online? Queue times can be horrendous and awful. This is just another smack in the face not a moment of light in a dark time.

Life must be horrible for you with your glass always half empty.

With Verizon posting on its own web site in November that the update would be available in early 2012 (using that piece of information as a selling tool) the least Verizon could do is to be honest and open with its customers who DO care about updates.

For a company that makes it money selling "communications," it totally sucks at communicating!!

Go to this Vzw page and scroll down to" View Phone Information."

Just do what I did and load the leak. I did it yesterday and I'm pretty stoked about it so far.

Got it! That is an ICS, Sense 3.6 home screen at the top of the "View Phone Information" page, isn't it?

Yea. Someone earlier said they couldn't find it on the Vzw site. Its not on the update page its just part of the info page. It is kind of weird that they are showing the Rezound with ICS on it before it is even released yet unless they let loose the ota right away. That might confuse a few people.

The only problem with everything you are saying is that all the leaks are 4.0.3 even the supposed OTA leak from june.

I call BS, not on you but on Josh

I agree. We wont see 4.0.5 but this ota will be 4.0.4. I got a shiny nickel I will bet on it.
I also have a corroded penny that says we start seeing roll out tomorrow night.

Inconceivable!

**DestinedtoGame** · 07-26-2012, 02:48 AM

I love the fact that they took away the curved bottom and the customize home screen option on the call bar. It just sucks we don't have this officially yet =(

**Tmaybin** · 07-26-2012, 07:22 AM

I guess I came in late to the game. I've been watching for ICS since April and this was the first time I have seen the link I posted, so I got a little hopeful.

hey at least by coming late to the party you haven't gotten your hopes up 6 times only to have them be crushed when another rumored release date passes. June 20th was the worst.

I thought May 9th was the worst, but June 20th is a close second.

I don't know, HTC posting the news kinda put the 20th over the top

I might have used the wrong version numbers in that post you quoted. Here is the explanation that I gave on AF. If I'm wrong and it was 4.0.3 and 4.0.4, I'm sorry, didn't mean to confuse up the works.

I might have gotten the version numbers for the ICS upgrade wrong, but I could almost swear that Josh said 4.0.4 and 4.0.5. Yesterday, I had dug a four and a half foot deep hole that was too small for me to get into, and had to dig it from the surface. Killed my lower back, and by the time I talked to Josh, I was wasted on strong narcotic painkillers.

Lots of them.

So I could have easily gotten confused about the version numbers.

As for disabling the apps, Josh said that the earlier upgrade, 4.0.4 or whatever it was, had the ability to hide the apps, but not remove them completely. He assumed that the newer one, 4.0.5 or whatever, would be able to do the same, but wasn't sure.
