Aug 10, 2012, 7:46 AM by Eric M. Zeman

HTC recently took to its Facebook page to reiterate that Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich updates are still in the works for a number of its devices. HTC was responding to customer complaints, as HTC has missed delivering ICS updates on time to several devices, such as the Rhyme, which was supposed to get ICS in June/July. Other devices slated to receive ICS include the Desire S, Droid Incredible 2, and Thunderbolt. HTC said the updates will be delivered by the end of August.

No ICS 4.0 Love for the HTC EVO 4G...

☹️ Damn. Guess that's how manufacturers force the hand if the consumer into an upgrade eventhough the hardware can more than handle it..

The fact that OEM's can't really do is exactly why Google needs to take control of the update process...
