Why is HTC treating the Americas like a red-headed stepchild?
Didn't Taiwan and all of them just get their 4.2.2 update?
Are we going to have to wait for the update to creep across the globe again?

Where's the love???

That is HTC's home. It makes sense that their home gets the latest stuff first.

Who controls when updates are pushed to carrier branded devices (HTC or the carriers)? If not HTC then what's the fuss? It will come...

I'm never ordering another HTC product again. We probably won't even get 4.4 at rate this is going

You realize that other companies aren't any faster, right? The S4 and the Moto X don't have 4.3 either.

[legaldeejay]

If you build it, they will come. So I guess you need to build a baseball field to get the update.

this is good news. not sure why you are upset.

they said it would be arriving by the end of this week, and seeing how it is being pushed to devices elsewhere is a very good sign.

loooooooool The S4 and other top phones still haven't gotten 4.3 yet but you're here spouting nonsense. Even the G2, which just came out, still doesn't have 4.3.

[chrisxpierce]

I'm sure glad I don't have to wait for our carrier's or HTC to give me the 4.3! I was one of you, scampering about, depressed about not getting candy, when everyone else was!! I rooted, and BAM...I'm on 4.3!

Stop wasting good stress on them, and perform ROOT & ROM!!!

I'm too much of a cat's nickname (if you know what I mean) to do that.

I was intimidated as well, and it literally took me 2 months of reading, videos and blogs to finally develop the courage to do it....AND I'M SO GLAD I DID!! In the end, it was sooooo easy, really!

Forgot to mention that an admin here, seen that I was on the edge of the cliff (root or no root) and he pushed me!! :-D

When this round of updates reaches U.K. will HTC halt the updates and say, "For the Americas we are going to skip 4.3 and update y'all to 4.4 ...in 3 to 6 months." ?

While we're still sitting on 4.1.2...

Uhhhh did you forget that we're still on 4.1.2? Get out

They skipped 4.2.2 to get 4.3 earlier to the US (Also 4.2.2 is on the Verizon version). Give me a break, kid, if they didn't skip 4.2.2 these carriers would spend even more months to get 4.3 out.

I think the point is that the new updates that didn't hit North America had some features in them that would make the phone better to use like using the HTC logo as the menu button over having to to lose screen space. HTC has kinda treat the North American market pretty **** poor from my understanding, look on their Facebook page of all the unhappy owners, apparently HTC doesn't even have a repair center here? I think a lot of the others Moto X and Samsung passed on 4.3 cause it was a very minor update but I believe both offer 4.2 and then 4.4 when available.

[ajua]

Let's just try to wait until end of the week. They already said it's coming and being rolled out somewhere is good news.

I didn't like the skipping of 4.2.2 but given the time they took to release 4.3 it wasn't that bad to be honest. I did changed my US unlocked model to the European version to get 4.2.2 while they got 4.3 out so I will be reverting to US unlocked model stock to receive the US OTAs.

[vsighi@yahoo.com]

I hope we will have the 4.3 in no more then 3 day's :-/

[JustABro]

The slow updating is the only reason why I didn't buy the HTC One yet, really love this phone but I hate the no menu button and that it takes up screen space, I wonder how long it'll take them to bring 4.4 to the HTC One or if they will at all?

[Dave Clark]

If you want a phone with an up to date OS then buy a nexus phone. They have 4.3 and will get 4.4 first along with the next nexus. Phones like the one and S4 are notorious for not pushing updates quickly as they get the update from Google and then integrate their skin over the top which takes time.

Uh did you forget in the US the carrier has to push the update which can take months after HTC gives it to them.. This includes Samsung products, LG products, etc.

So yeah HTC skipped one update to go straight for the big one (4.3) but regardless how fast they get it out the carriers could hold it up for months and months.
