HTC acknowledge Android 4.0 ICS update delay for the Incredible 2

Posted in: Today's Chili

htc-droid-incredible-2-reviewAs HTC Thunderbolt owners are probably aware of by now, Verizon/HTC has missed the end of August deadline they had originally planned for Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich update. As it turns out that is not the only HTC device that Verizon/HTC has missed the deadline on and Incredible 2 owners are probably wondering where their update is.

After all, the ROM for the Android 4.0 ICS update was leaked a couple of weeks ago, suggesting that the release was imminent. HTC has since acknowledged the delay on their Facebook page and just like they said with the Thunderbolt update, they are still working with Verizon on releasing the update for the Incredible 2. In any case we’ll be keeping our eyes open for the update, so stay tuned!

HTC Thunderbolt, Droid Incredible 2 go back to the future with leaked Ice Cream Sandwich ROMs

HTC Thunderbolt, Incredible 2 go back to the future with leaked Ice Cream Sandwich ROMs

Looks like some HTC oldies are in store for Android OS goodies — unofficially. Though Verizon’s yet to publicly confirm availability, it does appear Droid Incredible 2 and Thunderbolt owners (like this sorry bastard) are in store for a very real Ice Cream Sandwich upgrade. Two deodexed ROMs based on purported stock 4.0.4 builds have recently hit the forums treating eager and, in the case of that latter LTE handset, beleaguered users to a host of performance tweaks, as well as that Sense 3.6 skin. It should go without saying that you’ll need to be rooted to flash either leak and, as always, the usual warnings apply: backup first and proceed at your own risk. That said, consider this your ticket past the Big Red tape.
