shocking from HTC uk - HTC One X

well today we supposedly got the JB update for our unbranded onex,we had to force the update while vodafone released it also for branded devices without having to force it.Given JB has been out since june then this is shocking really 6 months to release it on the same day as the networks to me is not acceptable,will think long and hard over my next phone purchase.Whats your views?

Enough people have groaned about this issue and it probably won't change, the mods closed the OTA thread on several occasions because of this and people were banned for flaming each other on XDA
I admit the timeframe sucked arse royally but this was covered plenty of times before
Also judging by the amount of new bases coming out of the maximus thread, they had alot to sort out

Thread closed
Pretty useless here. Please take your rants to HTC not xda.

[Q] when will Htc Desire get the 2.3 update!

When will the official 2.3 Gingerbread update be provided for HTC desire..it has bee released for Nexus one bt not for Desire yet! Any Ideas??, Thnak you.
According to UK carrier three its around late April early may that they plan to actually release 2.3 on desire. That is for 'three' branded handsets I hope unbranded ones get released earlier than that
Check out Android central they have an article
Hope it comes with new sense too

I tried posting link but I'm a new user and can't sorry. Check out Android central its there apparently the news released on Twitter

Be careful what you believe, if you read their timeline then you'll see that Three UK gave the exact same answer on Twitter for questions regarding HTC Desire *and* HTC Desire HD (when asked for a 2.3 date by different users with different phones). Giving the same answer may have been a mistake.
Reports from MWC Barcelona 2011 said the newer HD and Z will be updated first, followed by the original Desire a while later (early summer). Personally, I still believe this schedule to be more accurate and more realistic.
There is 1 definitive answer... q2.

perhaps in june 2011
reports say telus will recieve there ota late april early may but thats what they said about froyo and it was delayed quite abit
Considering with Desire-S still not available in any market (it will be outdated already on its day one but this is another issue) assume our Desires will not get it before 2 months after its release = Q3/2011 (shame HTC) presumably my next device will be a SGS.

Does DesireHD already got Gingerbread? Because we wont get Gingerbread before DHD for sure.

DesireHD doesn't have gingerbread yet.
I hope the updates all come out soon.
Does anyone know if the new sense will be coming to the original desire with update?
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
I think yes.
And we will have to wait :-( they should translate gingerbread for Russia. So I hope we will get it in q4 2011. But of course you can use unofficial mods like I do;-)

Don't get a age you will regret it massively the desire is a much better device. I tried the sgs I have used it for about a week and it's now on eBay. The lag when using the phone gets worse and is a pain to open apps as they takes ages because of rfs. The build quality is also really bad compared to the desire. Only good point about it is the screen.

we had a similar thread here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=730416&page=15
also I'm more inclined to think that the DHD and DZ will get the GB update first as already mentioned - then the Desire Original a little later - best case is that it comes at the same time -
also I imagine that the GB update will include a newer sense version as it makes little sense to have a DS, DHD, DZ on a newer sense than the DO - else it's two platforms (DS/DHD/DZ on new and DO on old) to keep updated/fixed rather than just one (across four devices)

2.3 OTA Update

I'm hearing of some unbranded UK Desires receiving an OTA update to Gingerbread, has anyone else seen this? Nothing on mine yet, and since it's unbranded I imagine it's not a staggered rollout.
Anyone know what's going on, or are my sources false?
I've not heard anything to maybe a fail. I guess if you find HTC's RUU then it will be rolling out soon. About now is when it's rolling out so maybe so.
Well after some checking I can confirm that a desire, possibly on TMob got a system update a couple days ago, but can't confirm whether it was 2.3 or just a pre update of some sort, also not sure if the desire is branded or not.
unfortunately the phone is a work phone that my friend doesn't have currently so can't get any more details at this moment.
Nothing here. Unbranded handset :-(

HTC Official Update
I received the following email today from HTC Customer Care in response to a question as to when they will fix the widely reported Google leak (potential security flaw in Android).
In regards to your last response, in order to to get the security update when it is being issued, you have to have a base of the 2.3 Gingerbread update on your handset, in which case will be released this summer for devices such as HTC Desire.
Currently we do not have a specific date as to when the 2.3 will be released for other handsets as at this time the update is only being issued to HTC Desire HD and HTC Incredible S.
summer? geeez... I thought it was going to be anytime soon this month... Bit fed up of waiting...

Check my sig. I can't say I noticed something actually does not work, which I can say for some other roms people swore are rock stable, but it drains battery and there is obvious lag especially with alternative launchers and animations. That said, I can cope with some lag, but I can't cope with memory leaks, bootloops, ads etc.
So you can't just yet say it is as it is meant to be, but it comes to that this actually works. Not extra smooth, but it does.

Good question! In case you are on a custom ROM, I have a link for the latest H3G RUU
Just relock bootloader, fastboot, connect to pc and run RUU
Of course nobody knows. It's not even available to unbranded Euro handsets yet

Really feel for you, I just got my email response from 3UK when asked when Jellybean will be available; "We do not have the updated version, it will be released at some point."
Just come from LG optimus 2x and all that saga over ics, moved to a htc one x hoping to be treated better lol only to find yet another ****ty company when it comes to customer support. Very dissapointed to say the least.
Bought the phone unlocked, alas it is still tied to 3 via CID :crying: was hoping this could be altered. Dead end there too.
All the best.
Carrier's are a pile of w#nk with updates. That is all.........

You are complaning from the update speed of a company, and you're switching to the other one, which has the biggest software package added on to Android, and you are expecting to get updates quickly.
I do, really do.
Actually Three UK were the first network to release both 1.28 and 2.17. They skipped 1.29 entirely due to radio issues. The main problem was the communication with the customer, it was terrible.
I tweeted them a few weeks back and they said they had the update in testing. But that could have been the bugged version that they didn't release globally.

Up to 18 months of releasing a set they are bound to give updates! Do you know that?
Samsung is definitely better than other brands atm, hTC, Sony etc, for providing faster updates, but that's a different thing.

The difference here is that those operating systems are things you actually have to buy, whereas android is free.
But back on topic: OP you barely even given them time to react. It takes a while to develop these things, so they take at least a couple of months to release. I mean, look at the galaxy s2 and its ICS release, that was their flagship phone for a while and even on that it took months for ics to be released on it.

You surely know nothing about One Alliance protocol followed by all the companies who use Android OS for their cell.
Its a guideline stated by Google that OEM must support a device that they bring out for 18 months since the time of release.
Now this is a very good guideline as it helps us sort good brands from stupid brands..for eg- motorola
Also google cant force any company to release updates. The company is at fault if it doesnt and they are responsible for getting a bad name then.

As a user who uses both Apple and Android (Samsung) devices, I find that this is still quite a major flaw for android phone manufacturers. My father still uses an iPhone 3GS and that is still receiving updates from Apple, nearly 4 years since it was released.
This is the first time i've heard of the "One Alliance protocol" so hopefully it's a step in the right direction.
Other than that, I'm sure users of older phones can hopefully flash custom roms of higher OS releases for their phone.
Sorry if i sound like a noob
4.2 was released 3+ months back. Currently my nexus 7 is running on 4.2.1 and this week would be 4.2.2 . Now then why is wrong to ask a question that samsung has not been keen on releasing 4.2 updates instead of stupid increments on 4.1.x which have been a major letdown.
Battery life has gone down from 4.1.1 to 4.1.2 while i was expecting the opposite. 4.2 has much more refined codebase for battery and performance.
Now am I being unreasonable for asking the question?
Who would buy the s4 if note 2 had 4.2.2 already
They would update the note 2 two months after they sell 20 million s4
If you want 4.2 for the dash clock ... flash aokp or Cyanogenmod rom

Android OS upgrades are completely unrelated to what you just described about Windows. I purchase my windows and get updates free of charge throughout its product life cycle which stretches to even a decade. Going back to topic its Samsungs obligation to support its devices sold and keep them up to date atleast while the phone is relatively recent. Its what consumers want its why most people buy the latest phones. I bought my note 2 not because of its hardware alone, let alone its cheap build quality, but also because i expect to get the latest updates soon and not when its outdated.

I think we will get it soon. Google will release a newer version than 4.2.x and the new update we will first get it after they have released s4

Why must there be? There are unofficial versions, just use those. Are you expecting Sony to keep every single phone they ever released up to date? There must be hundreds by now (okay that was a hyperbole, 48 according to Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sony_Xperia), noone can keep up with that. If you must blame anyone or anything for the short while that phones are getting updates, blame Android because it's so hard to install on hardware (compared to more classic PC OS's like Windows and Ubuntu/Pick-Your-Favorite-Linux-Distro). Not even the Galaxy Nexus got an update to Android 4.4, and if there was one Nexus that was most like our Fuji-phones it was that one. So if our generation's Nexus isn't even getting any updates anymore, how do you expect a non-Nexus device to get that update.
Seriously, I don't like this either, so ever since KitKat I haven't run a stock ROM. Now you've learned that if stock updates are important to you, you should get a Nexus or a Google Play Edition device. Sony has been known not to be very good in providing long term updates ever since the Xperia X10 (their very first Android phone). And if you can't afford to get a new phone every 2 years (because that's how long it'll be relevant), you should stop being so sensitive about updates and be happy with what you have.

Best not buy a HTC, support isn't great there either. The One X(L) isn't going beyond Android 4.2. If this is important to you, there's only q Nexus, a Google Play Edition phone or maybe a Motorola Moto X but we still have to see how long Motorola is going to support phones now they're part of Google.
And indeed we wouldn't be much without Rayman or bilchen. But it's like this for the vast majority of Android devices.

I tried several KK-based roms for xperia S, but all gave me random reboots
had some on 4.3, but with 4.4 I have too many to be stable as dayly driver.
i guess they all use the same kernel (open semc), that could explain why the all have it?
but... why do some people claim to have no reboots, and others have em 'all the time'?
i'm now on nature rom (4.1) and no problems at all, it's a great rom, but i really like 4.4 as well.
will there be a stable kernel/version soon?

First of all, the XS it's not just another phone sony launched, its a flagship device that only got two major updates (one actually cause ics should have been out of the box) so I at least expected 4.2 or 4. 3, even Galaxy s2 got them
second, the galaxy nexus didn't get 4.4 because of Texas instruments (supposedly) and as long as other oems continue to update it means it's possible and we have every right to complain about it

second, the galaxy nexus didn't get 4.4 because of Texas instruments (supposedly) and as long as other oems continue to update it means it's possible and we have every right to complain about it
S has 2 updates ics,jb.and what about sl.sl was preloaded with ics.it has only jb update.

You're absolutely correct that Galaxy Nexus lack of KitKat is due to Texas Instruments. Similar, Xperia S ain't getting 4.2 and above due to Qualcomm, not Sony.

Ok then my mistake, but how would you then explain the galaxy s2 getting updates with a snapdragon s2?
