Sprint Ice Cream Sandwich Update

Word has arrived from Sprint regarding the future availability of Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich for their smartphones, with an announcement having been made today about their HTC line of devices. From the Sprint Community portal blog:

"Sprint will begin to rollout Google's latest version of Android, Ice Cream Sandwich, to our customers in early 2012. Ice Cream Sandwich will be available via an over-the-air update to a variety of devices including HTC EVO 3D, HTC EVO Design 4G and other key products in our line-up."

These HTC phones join the short list of other existing Android devices to receive the Ice Cream Sandwich OTA update. We'll be looking for the update to arrive early next year, but it definitely couldn't arrive soon enough.

I'm interested to see how ICS affects our devices. I would think Sense would render most of the visual enhancements useless. I'd love of they found an innovative way to combine it all...but I wont hold my breath to that.

Many would say ICS renders most of Sense useless

Knowing HTC, sense will stick around. However, i'm sure there will be loads of people rocking pure ICS. Ah, root.

I can't wait to see ics on the evo. If its anything like rooting the evo when it came out then it could be a while lol.

(Thinking) If updating our phones to ICS wasn't in anyway an added feature / bonus would HTC and Sprint would even bothered. JS. It cost money to upgrade and enhance anything. HTC and Sprint knows that (we) their loyal customers always want the best. So, this is why they are willing to make it happened. Unfortunately, not every device will be fortunate enough to be able to upgrade to ICS.

 

[Symphony_of_Sickness]

i'm hoping ICS will be worth it enough even with sense in place for us non rooted folks. one of these days i'll have to root my phone.

 

[RUSH]

^^ Even though I was 'hesitant' about rooting any of my phones, but if HTC wasn't going to upgrade my Evo 3d..I was seriously contemplating on going that route. (Rooting) -

 

[enthuz]

I plan on rooting when my contract expires and I'm waiting for my LTE phone to replace my EVO3D.

That would be great, but I am hesitant to believe it.

EVO 3D and Galaxy S II to get Ice Cream Sandwich in December - Los Angeles Gadgets | Examiner.com

Cool! Next month!

HTC said "Early 2012". I tend to believe the company that makes the device.

I don't see anything wrong with your posting it. Just like all the talk about the EVO 3D before there was much information and a release date, most of the stuff posted about this sort of thing is speculation anyway. Look at all the discussion that occurred!

 

[VickMackey#AC]

If the 3D gets ICS with Sense 4.0 and it looks just like Sense 3.0 people are gonna be a little upset. Just sayin..

 

[Melaza]

Got Ice Cream Sandwich on my Evo 3D!

 

[speedtouch]

Nice! Proof that indeed ICS can be put on an EVO 3D!

 

[antclauson]

LMAO!!!!

Seeing is believing.
