honestly? id say 2-1 we get official ics...it was promising that the og inc got official gb over a year after release, and id imagine we will probably get it
of course, worst case scenario we ll get aosp ics...ie cm etc
I think it will be a Christmas present to all of us.
I don't see us getting a vanilla form of ICS. That would totally change the look of what the standard non rooted user would be used to and cause panic.
It would be interesting to see how ICS and Sense will work together though and I would expect to see a version on Sense 2.1 with ICS more then anything

we wouldnt get vanilla ics from htc...just from devs building aosp
sense 4.0 is supposedly for ics
thats actually the bigger question mark imo
would we get sense 4.0 and ics or a dumbed down sense and ics?
idk what htc's take on that is
The actual ICS? Never officially, but 100% likely from XDA/Rootzwiki.
Will probably get a "Sensed Up" version by the middle of next year or maybe closer to Fall of '12, the fact that it's on Verizon adds at least half a year of development time. And also since it's not the HTC Evo or Sensation, they are not as eager to push new OS updates to them, so that is another number of months.
Regardless, ICS will be ported to the Inc2, and then just as with 3.0 and 3.5, we will get the Sense version ported to the Inc2 as well. Just don't hold your breath for anything official. More likely that some bored forum member will do the work than a multi-million dollar company like HTC.

Definitely expect a dumbed down form of sense. But who knows? I've been wrong before and will be wrong again in my life. Lol
Htc has already announced the devices that will get official ics, and unfortunately dinc2 isn't on the list

If they announce that the Inc2 is getting ICS now, it may possibly kill the sales of the Rezound. Just thinking out loud.
Google even said themselves that any phone running gingerbread can run ICS.

Dear Devs,
I love the work you guys do. You spend your own free time to make our phones better, and dont ask for much in return. So thanks for that. But i think we have too many sense 3.5 roms. we need some variety. So if you guys feel like working on some really good AOSP roms or something, im sure the dinc 2 community would eat them alive.
PS- im not trying to sound like im complaining too much or anything. I just wanted to voice my opinion on the matter. Im sure you devs love to hear some consumer feedback on your products.
Why don't you try making one? Not sarcastic, a serious suggestion. I'm only here for another month sadly.

I've got an alpha 3.6 Rom I could release this weekend, if anyone's interested in helping to fix bugs?
Works well, but there are issues to fix... Ie, phone reboots when the screen is off... I've been out of active development for a while, but I'm willing to toss something out there...

Ok, I'll upload a test Rom tomorrow and post it. Everything seems to work fine, just no backlights, camera and reboots on screen off. Other than that, its functional. Calls work (as long as you don't shut the screen off), sms/mms and WiFi... I'm setting up aroma installer for it now and working on the framework decompile to fix the backlights. The reboots I'm stumped on, though...

I'll hit you up when I have it uploaded. I'm uploading what I'm using now, so it won't be any official release till tomorrow afternoon (when I get off work). I'll list all the bugs and such in the OP when I get it up.
I haven't really had any motivation to keep active on here lately, just a lot of home to deal with and I don't like having to break out for months at a time leaving everyone hanging... Don't know how much I can put into this, but what the heck, I'll try anyway. The Inc2 will probably be official ICS 3.6 by the time all the bugs are worked out, though... lol.
Here's a little taste...
So is there an official date or an eta for ics yet. I haven't heard yet. Sorry if someone answered this already.

@knipp21- you lucky ducky, and thanks for serving our country. my dads in the military so i know what deployment does to a family.
@Linch89- The inc 4g is crap, barley an upgrade and the "metal" coating on the one x and one s is peeling off on phones. HTC is having to recall them and give the customers ones that are fixed. Thats why as of right now the rezound is a pretty good upgrade. PLus since its been out so long its got a pretty good dev community from what ive heard, never took a look for myself.
@macrodroid- haha i JUST saw that post for your rom. ill try it as soon as it at least goes beta since its still alpha.
Thanks for all the replies its a good disscussion
First off, I would just like to thank all the devs who have worked like mad men on giving all us dinc users some delicious Ice Cream Sandwich, for without your amazing work I surely would have thrown my phone in a fit of rage into a wall a loooong time ago. Now, even though there's no official word yet, until later this morning , I think it's safe to assume that Jellybean will end up being named Android OS 4.1 instead of 5.0 (ICS, but with improvements). With all of this in mind, is it possible that we could actually get some JB love? I understand that we'll have to wait until they release the source code to know for sure, but with what we've heard so far it sounds like it actually could be possible. Idk, am I just missing something obvious here?
P.S. I'm asking this mostly because I'm trying to get my posts # up (I'm new here, be nice), although I'd love if we could entertain this thought for a moment. I think I only have like 2 posts so far (cuz I ACTUALLY search for stuff, WOW!!!!) so bear with me, please and thank you!

From what ive seen ics doesn't really push our GPU or CPU that hard. I think our phones should run it great.

Wow. I am so glad I picked the Incredible way back in the day.
At the IO google said that they would release JB developer tools for JB. So will we have the full potential of 4.1 JB?
I ask this because JB probably won't be released (offically) for our phone.
PS: do you think the performance boosts of JB will have an significant effect on our phone? It seemed to on the nexus.
Probably not. We don't have kernel source for ICS as it is, even though our phone is slated to get it, but I wouldn't count on it so getting JB to work on our phone is highly unlikely.

I'm 76% sure we will get ICS. They have it for the S and they said they would release it at the end of August.
You must consider that JB is just an updated ICS. So we don't need an offical JB to have it running 100%. And Google will have a dev tool out that may help us. Lastly they have a dump floating around. Chances are that we can use that to help us build a 100% working ASOP JB build. But this all depends on when or if we get ICS.
Can a dev jump in and let me know of my logic is correct

And you believe everything HTC and Verizon tells you...? that Dev tool is worthless if it doesn't include specific Dinc 2 files that goes once again back to kernel source. That dump isn't as useful to us as you think otherwise we would have fully working ICS on our phones from ICS dumps. Trust me, if it were as simple as you believe it is, our devs would have done it already. The situation with JB is pretty much the same as ICS if not worse since there is also the issue of resizing XHDPI JB to WVGA because there are no JB phones with WVGA resolution. Don't quote me on that last part, but I'm sure a dev can correct me or explain it better.

Nexus S will receive the update and it is a single core WVGA phone. So, I'll be looking closely on feedback from Nexus S users. That should give us an idea of the performance gains that we can theoretically expect, if any, over ICS. And there is no need to be overly cynical about HTC and their promise of giving us ICS. They said they will by August end and so just wait for it. Regardless of what may have happened in the past, you will just burden your mind with needless thoughts...

Its been clarified by reps at both HTC and VZW that what they meant was that the date is to be decided but that we will have it by the end of August. Take that for what you will, as I don't believe there has been anything official that clarifies this. I am pretty confident that we will get it and can only hope that we will get kernel source soon after.
Back to the OP's question, I highly doubt that we will have a 100% working JB rom anytime soon considering we still have issues on ALL of our ICS roms. Once we have official ICS our awesome dev's will probably be able to get JB working well pretty quickly.

HTC has to release kernel source regardless because of the Chinese OTA they released. It might be as late as October, but they have to release it regardless or else they'd be in violation of some law that has an acronym I can't remember.

OTA ICS will (should) help remove many of the small bugs we have with Camera etc... And once we get a hand on our kernel source, I believe devs will be knee deep in Jellybean goodness... The main reason why I am looking forward for the OTA is for the kernel source... Hell no I am going to go stock.. Once the kernel is up, I am gonna go with Nits' Sense 4 ROM!
The To be determined thing is crappy of them... They say on their FB page that the "Release Date" is the thing to be determined, NOT whether it gets ICS or not... which makes sense given it is in the table of release dates and given they previously confirmed to give it ICS... anyway, time will tell... No breaking my head on this...

Yeah, I should try that ROM too, sometime... I was wondering how functional it is... The Sense 4 ROM has some issues with GPS too (if you toggle it, it will not come back on). But I don't like how Sense 3.6 is.
Even if we don't get an OTA HTC still has to release source because of the Chinese and Inc S ICS OTA. That's why I don't understand why some of the other users are so anxious for an official OTA, even with these other OTAs flash timing appears to still have not been fixed, whatever that is I haven't had it happen personally (knock on wood). We all need to relax and just wait for source to be posted and let the devs do their thing.
On a different topic, anyone else thing the default sig on the XDA app is kind of redundant?

In my experience it was bugless (IC 3.6) although it was laggy. It was laggy in the wrong places (homescreen, and scrolling through certain apps) and smooth in the wrong places (app drawer, GP, settings).

Hear me folks: AOKP is going to Jellybean after Milestone 6. Support is stopped for Dinc1, Desire, Evo 4G and Kindle Fire. [Read here or here] However, DON'T expect it to come overnight for several reasons:
After Milestone 6, the team take a short break in preparation for Jelly Bean. We’ll be taking a different approach to JB; starting fresh. With a clean start, we’ll be able to set things up properly from the get-go. We’re a much more experienced unit now, and we believe merging all of the JB changes is just asking for trouble.

So, they gonna take a break AND start from scratch. So, unlike what some are saying, they won't simply merge the changes to ICS... It will probably make for a more stable ROM but will undoubtedly take a longer time. However, now that these chaps are experienced with a lot of the subtleties of the whole deving process, I suppose we can be optimistic that it will take lesser time than bringing ICS up to scratch...
On the other hand, the CyanogenMOD team said they will start work on CM10 (Jellybean) as soon as they get the source. However, we don't have official CM9 and so we probably won't have official CM10.. But we may get it from our devs...

Hear me folks: AOKP is going to Jellybean after Milestone 6. Support is stopped for Dinc1, Desire, Evo 4G and Kindle Fire. [Read here or here] However, DON'T expect it to come overnight for several reasons:

Well I is the 9th letter of the alphabet and J is the 10th and so on, so I guess that's why the CM team is calling it CM10 and not CMX. I mean it makes sense to for them to be consistent, I'm just wondering what will happen when Android goes past Z...

...... CM10 could also be called CMX. X=10 is there an issue

This is what I was referring to talking about J's and 9's and such
But then Apple will sue CyanogenMOD!!! Oh noes, people will be confused between Mac OS X and CM X! They have the same number of letters (3)... Litigious Apple in action!
Apart from this naming convention dilemma, is there anything else that may pique your interest? waiting for the good stuff from Jellybean!

No, only generic, non-copyrighted names allowed. (You lose a point). Rumor mills are cranking up the possibility of Key Lime Pie being the next Android version... Android KLP is what we need to get used to by Jan 2013... Now, lets forget ICS (which is technically outdated already) and focus on JB (similar to GB...)
