not trying to hurry or harass developers,just asked a question,did anyone know if kitkat coming to desire anytime.
anyway who the hell are you to spout just cos i asked a question?

Nothing's been released at this point. Nikez has got a build that boots, but there are many issues. With that being said, it does seem like the developers (nikez, drewis, and woh) are working on it based on the activity on their git accounts. However they have warned that it may take weeks or even months before anything stable is released, so don't get your expectations to high.

If u mean about the official updates, that is possible, as gingerbread should be the final android version that htc gave us..maybe some minor security fix later eventually..but we will still have cm and miui that will give us the latest android version available of course
Well minor GB updates should be possible. I mean, it's not like complete overhaul like 2.2 -> 2.3 was.

i don't know about minor updates..because they didn't release the ota for all user (and they will not do that in future), its only an ruu for devs..
I doubt any updates will come our way. That would really be too much to ask. I think that Desire will be discontinued soon enough anyway.
When i wanted to buy my Desire, Vodafone Romania was out of stock. When asked when will a new shipment arrive, they've told me that the device is listed as End Of Life and no new ones will be brought. They have since removed it from their website/on-line market.
IMO, there will be no further updates for the Desire, either OTA or RUU.
Yea sad but true. A more than 1,5 year old phone is around EOL. Htc need their customers to move on to newer more profitable phones.
edit: also just checked. Almost any store i can think of have taken it off their product list.
Yep it has been discontinued.
Its on the HTC website. I doubt they would remove it off that.

I have also checked on several local stores near mhome, they do not provide any new Desire ...not anymore...
I guess this is it...
But how long the custom ROM will provide support/update to our Desire

I have saved lots of Roms, themes, Apks, Hboots and mods so whenever the Desire Devs move on I still have plenty to play with. Sometimes nostalgia is good.

and what u will do? play with old things?
no, the solution is cm and miui...they will give us the latest android version available untill the hardware can support it..so maybe more than 1 year at least (android 2.5?)
As long as the Nexus One gets new updates, be it Ice-Cream sandwhich or even the next Android iteration that comes after it, I'm sure the dev's will continue to cook us new roms up to a point where it is no longer possible.

[Q] Will/When DHD receive Ice Cream Sandwich

Hello guys.
Does someone knows news about possible future update with ICS?
Google said that every mobile capable to run Gingerbread will be capable to have ICS...
Thanks in advance for your time.

Officially, no, but trough xda developers, yes
Desire HD is more than capable. the problem is with HTC. Somehow i doubt that we will get the official ICS.
What's good about android is that we get to have independent developers developing roms for us so I'm pretty sure we will get an early port for our device once the sources comes out.
Google should start releasing sources now!!!
I think this update will be the reason i finally root my DHD. ICS looks awsome. I'm currently just using the GO Launcher with a honeycomb theme and that looks and feels a damn site better than Sense
no official news by now.
we should wait for sense roms based on ice cream sandwich. I can not live without official sense on my phone personally .
yes, one of the reasons why i rooted my desire HD last week because i know devs will be porting ICS to our phone. can't wait for that to happen. I'll be glad to donate to anyone that will be bringing an early ICS port to our phone

HTC are reviewing ICS because some of the improvments in ICS was brought by Sense on gingerbread, but there is no timeline for any device to get ICS but Cyanogenmod publicly announced no CM9 roms will be out untill the Source is out. they dont fiddle with SDK's

Sorry Mr. Moderator.
Please move my thread or close it.
Regards.
I hope it will come soon officially. I really love HTC and their work but if they keep ignoring previous models to sell the new ones, I will definetely change to samsung or sth else. Making you do things which only they allow is one of the reasons I hate about Apple, which even they are upgrading their previous devices, HTC is acting even worse. I already feel extremely disappointed about Sense 3.0 or 3.5 not coming to DHD officially, that would be too much.
Here is the Nexus Prime dump.
Hope some devs will take it on and port it=)

Galaxy nexus is the name not nexus prime
I'm really glad seeing that developement in Desire HD Section goes that fast forward
But the devs need the source code of ICS , which will be released if the Galaxy Nexus gets released... doesn't they?
SO it will be a matter of time until ics will come on our desire hd's ..
maybe we just waiting the dev to port it to our DHD....

+1 I especially dislike not being able to update my device just because the manufacturer doesn't want me to, lucky we have xda. According to mike the ARHD dev sense 3 and 3.5 will soon come to DHD officially. The current ARHD rom is a leaked official sense 3 rom from HTC.

When's dgb geting it?
New year with a new rom, I can live with that. I just hope they aren't gonna hit any roadblocks so they can release it on time.
I bet AdamG would release Oxygen 3.0 a lot earlier than CM9 knowing that it wouldn't have heavy customization that CM roms are known for.

Well I can compile and develop source once someone has got it working intially but I have limited knowledge of the driver and kernel side and what is involved in getting a working build on an unsupported device. I had a small play last night but to be honest I have no idea how to get something working without the help of others.
Awww come on rootsu u can do it

Chalenge for porters N1 MIUI ICS fully working rom

As I could see here a Nexus One has a fully working MIUI ICS rom on MIUI United States site. Also, as much as I know both N1 and Desire has the same hardware under the hub, so porters I don't see any reason not to see it on Desire.
I'm not able to do that but I can chalenge you.

It's sounds good. Maybe porters don't see this post before. Let show this thread them!

If you read the thread you will see that this rom has the same problems as all the rest. Mainly handling video recording and playback. The kernel is still 2.6 and the rom base is definately based on evervolv sources. So, no there's nothing new in this rom.

ICS has nothing interesting to offer, if I would change phone that would be for "Butter" for sure why didnt you go for that? (or it's on the list for JB?)

they can still change their minds but this is just a common answer, The higher up execs probably haven't decided what they're doing so take this with a pinch of salt. if there's no other announcements by february then we probably won't be getting another update but don't quote me on it.

Yes, since the lower end devices can run 4.4. As promised by Google's Android dev.
I dont think this HOX will be skipping this update. Just the people at HTC do some work for it. :victory:

It can run on our phones fine but the issue is nvidia.
This article is about US version, ONE XL, but we won't get it either (I think).
But surely they have to support the One X+ as that is still under or around 18 months old, in which case it shouldn't take much to port it to ours.
With the excellent devs we have on here it would turn up quicker than HTC porting it to ours as well.
Yes they can change their minds sure and there is still hope.... Chuckle
