[Q] HTC Desire Ice Cream Sandwich ROM - Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is it possible that ICS will get to the normal HTC Desire AMOLED as a ROM? It would've been nice if it happened! I'd love to if someone made a ROM for the normal desire AMOLED with stock HBOOT and no bugs plus an OTA update URL! . It would've made my year and christmas! So what do you think? Do you think that the big developers will try to do this, or do you think they will just forget the desire and be lazy and mean and only support new phones? Please answer!

I guess only time will tell.

Hi,
I see you posted two threads one barely less senseless than the other. I was wondering what have you been smoking lately coz I want some of that too?

Yay. I want the ice cream and all de other puddings on ma fone. HTC will be do that soon me think. Manager of HTC shop and head of HTC fan boy club say its possible if dev manage to fix issues with loose buttons the screen can take the measure but backwards engineering will be possible to make it happen. 3 cheers for devs and xda and happy fun for everyone who likes chocolate cake in their fones

In all due respect. After reviewing all your posts, all 6 of them. I feel it necessary to say, stop demanding answers or roms from devs and gain some basic knowledge about android and how big companies such as HTC operate (hint: you bought the phone, it's now obsolete, no they don't care about you.) Be thankful we have such intelligent and generous devs who keep the desire alive. They have no obligation to create any rom or answer any question even if their rom broke your phone. I'm not saying you are stupid or disrespectful simply you should think before posting.

I have to say I never thought there'd be an industry in which Apple was the flag-holder for long-term device support. All the Android device manufacturers suck, really... I'd be quite surprised to get ICS on my Atrix, let alone my Desire

The question is not when but if Desire can handle ICS without problems.
On the other hand I wonder if HTC will make Sense for ICS. Time will tell.

And I was called fanboy...
I'm open minded. Before switching to android I read about android and wp7 (already familiar with symbian, wm 6.3 etc etc) and weighed up android was by far the best.
Not sure how I can be a fanboy before even trying the OS? As an IT systems engineer, I often have to compare products and decide on what's the best. Doesn't mean I am an acronis fan boy, or a HP storage works fan boy or quest fan boy... just because I believe them to be the best for the job by comparing them to other products.
Fan boys believe their product is the best for no reason. Without comparison or even exposure. It's best because they can't believe they could possibly be wrong about their product or could have made a bad decision. This is not me.

Funny that others didn't think that about me when I said I like WP7, which resulted into instant "you're an WP7 fanboy". Sorry to misjudge you, but you can understand why I thought that.
P.S.: Are we talking about WP7.5 here?
I dunno, I ended up liking my focus much better than my atrix. Then again, I still like my old Inspire more than my atrix, lol.

News from HTC

Hello guys. Today I sent HTC a message and I asked will our device get offical Sense 3.5 update. I asked it because HTC Explorer has offical 3.5 support and it's specs are similar to our phone.
Here is what they wrote:
Dear Dario Radečić,
Thank you for contacting HTC.
With regards to your enquiry,
Unfortunately, Your device (Wildfire S) does not support official Sense 3.5.
Wildfire S with android 2.3.5 and sense 2.1 and cannot update more.
HTC Explorer could be upgrade to sense 3.5.
Thank you for your care.
If you have any other inquiries, don’t hesitate to contact us again.

Yeah, well, they don't know about the power of porting! They have no idea about the great devs we have! Together we are the ultimate devs! (aside from those stuck up trolls, and sometimes, noobs, no offense)
Sent from Bad-Wolf's TARDIS.
That is true, we got great devs. And if our devs are having problems with with porting ics to WFS, they should ask this user, bcos he can definitly help them. He ported ics to LG-GT540 which have 600 MHz CPU, Adreno200 and 160 mb of ram. HWA, wifi, gps, data, camera, audio, everything is working on his ROM. I know bcos that LG was my previous phone
Sense 3.5 is already ported on our phone.

But hopefully we could get update to ANDROID 5.0 Jellybean... not asking for impossible but i wont lose hope...
I too enjoy a ROM create from here.. Better than the StOCK..
This isn't surprising. We all know that we can't rely on corporations to do anything just for customer satisfaction. If it's hard, it's expensive and thus not worth doing.

just wait for htc to launch its official updates for explorer and leave the rest on our xda folks to make it unofficial and launch it for our very own wildfire s

Recognised Contributors/Developers

Hello all,
You may have seen people around the Wildfire S forum with recognised tags under their names, instead of "Senior Member" or "Member" - this is explained in this post if you don't already know.
Here is the current list of recognised developers/contributors around the Wildfire S forums (from oldest->newest):
- eoghan2t7 (RC)
- alquez (RC)
- modpunk (RC)
- benjamingwynn (RC)
u deserve this title

That's precisely my point. If you're making ben a recognised contributor then you might as well add half a dozen others. It is just lowering the standard of what a recognised contributor should be.

Ok let's give up the hate between you two........alquez and modpunk have not become recognized developers cuz they havent developed the "Recognized contributor standard"......if they keep developing they will surely become Recognized developers
As for Ben being a recognized contibutor........he did a bit of work didn't he
Instead of criticizing others,do your part as an XDA Member and you might become one too
And sorry that if i have offended anyone i mentioned in this post.....actually i am feeling extremely sleepy atm and might have typed something offensive

I don't actually care,even if i get a million infractions i'll still come and help noobs as much as i can despite getting a single title to my name 'cause that's the true spirit of an XDA Member
And once again sorry for hurting anyone........still sleepy

But have you actually looked around the forum and seen the work he's *contributed* to the forum? That's what the whole term means, it's about your *contribution* to the community - something which he's worked hard to.

I agree im nowhere near their standard but I still contribute to the wildfire s community a lot and spend 70% of my free time developing. Look at me now its quarter to 12 at night and I'm on xda answering questions, making posts and tweeting ideas for roms on twitter.
The reason they are only recognised contributors is because they have only developed one thing, if you ask any xda staff they'll tell you you have to do at least 3 projects.
I really hope I didn't offend you or anything there mate.

They have developed only one thing?You do realize that we would have been lost without alquez and modpunk?(and people behind the scene, whom has been helping them).
They are the ones who developed cm7, and cm9, and brought ICS to our phones.Without modpunk to start the whole project, we would have been stuck on gingerbread.
So, with all due respect, they have done more than you, or anyone else here.
Respect for them.They are real developers.

Alquez was the one who helped me start developing in the first place fact is that although they may have done a lot they can't get that status by just working on one project. Xda state that you must have done a majority of just-as-awesome projects.

And now that I'm on summer break, I can test the ROM without needing to worry about the alarm not ringing in the morning

But to be honest, that will be hard to port and it will be slow, unless you have a solution for that.

I know the WF users will vote yes. Apart from one or two who would rather have CM9. And I'm sure most the WFS users want Sense 4 too.
As if anyone would say no Reason there's so few votes is because few people have noticed this. At least that' what I assume.

s-off updates

guys where are we to s-off?
we proceed?
There are currently a way or something to get s-off?
An s-off thread already exists on this forum.No need to make a new one.And "no" we do not have s-off yet.Please take any further questions to the s-off thread or the Q&A section.
Dear lord....I mean, no. Not at the moment and by the looks of it, not ever .
The problem is no real developer is looking into this....
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium
my hox is branded vadafone, my fear is that tomorrow will not release updates, so I have to change cid, and without s-off you can not.
jb official update is already out for a while but Vodafone still has not released anything.
if we do not change cid I see it hard for branded devices.
My phones CID is Optus001 which means I'll be on ICS for a while longer, ICS does not stop my phone doing what I want it to do. Relax a bit, it will come.

Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium
I believe an experienced developer needs to have a deep-look into S-off and then we might have some hope. But for now, we have to take use to this.
can i say something regarding XDA in general??? I am freaking pissed off with people now days not freaking going by the rules no more...
OP..Have you actually tried to bother to search firstly before opening this thread? No you have not.. Cause if you did you would know what is happening regarding s-off...So as regarding that we do not have it..Big deal..Learn on how to flash a custom rom without s-off. Also regarding JB..There are so many threads which discusses the whole situation regarding CIDS and so on..
So again why was there a need to open this thread. None at all..Just another pointless wasted thread and space and it is really starting to piss me off..
And to others here as well...You moan about this being another thread but you lot are just as bad as well by carrying on debating about stuff in this actual thread..Report the damn thing and move on...
I really miss the days back in the S2 forums were if there was a useless thread opened it was shut within an instant of it getting opened..Nowadays here at this forum you get nothing but bundles of useless threads and the attitude of a few members on this community has started to suck big style cause they freaking do not know the meaning of respect and they also do not know the meaning of freaking searching for something instead they expect to be spoonfed on how to freaking do **** on there smartphones...i really hope someone bricks there **** due to the stupidity of not doing the proper research...
XDA has changed. More mainstream. It's normal looking at how communities grow, develop and change.
I viewed XDA as a non member for 2 years before joining after getting an Android phone. Things have changed aplenty.
