It looks like Android 4.0 for the HTC DROID Incredible 2 is still in the works

Droid Incredible 2 ReviewSo we know that HTC was supposed to release the Android 4.0 ICS updated for the DROID Incredible 2, but so far we’ve only seen a leaked Android 4.0 ROM back in August, with HTC coming forward and acknowledging that there would be a delay in the update sometime back in September. Given that it’s already past the middle of November, we’re sure that there are many DROID Incredible 2 owners wondering if and when the update would arrive for their handsets. With HTC being rather quiet on that front, it would have been safe to assume that the update might have been cancelled or simply forgotten, but thankfully HTC has responded to an enquiry on Twitter about the status of the update.

According to the HTC rep who posted on Twitter, it seems that the company has had some connectivity issue with the software, which apparently explains the delay. It looks like they’re still working on a resolution and they will release more information when it is available. Whether this means the update will arrive next week or next year is anyone’s guess, but for now it’s still a glimmer of hope for DROID Incredible 2 owners.

Verizon Droid Incredible 2 Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich ROM leaked

Just like the HTC Thunderbolt which we talked about earlier this morning concerning an unofficial Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich ROM leak, here we are with a leaked ROM of Ice Cream Sandwich for the Droid Incredible 2 from Verizon Wireless, where HTC Sense 3.6 will also be thrown into the mix. Installing this leaked ROM will see your Android version bumped up to 4.0.4, although there are no promises that nothing will go awry with your smartphone. I suppose you do know the potential dangers of installing an unverified ROM on your smartphone – it might just end up bricking it.

Needless to say, it makes perfect and good sense to perform a backup of your Droid Incredible 2 beforehand, just in case Murphy decides to strike and wipe out all data on your device. There is a chance of installing the leaked ICS ROM without the need for a firmware update, although there are no guarantees that you can boot it up or get the other stuff working perfectly fine.
