HTC just released its “North American Edition” Ice Cream Sandwich update, adding new handsets to the HTC Android 4.0 update list. Owners of the HTC Thunderbolt, DROID Incredible 2 and HTC Rhyme should be pleased to hear that their phones will be getting updated to Android 4.0. The three Verizon handsets join the HTC Rezound which was on the list from the day it was announced. The entry level HTC Raider which has been released in Canada through Rogers and Bell will also be getting a taste of Ice Cream Sandwich.
Unlike the last announcement, HTC’s Android 4.0 update through Facebook today does not include any details around timing. We know that the HTC Sensation family is on the calendar to get the Android 4.0 update before the end of March, so we’re going to assume that these new devices will be getting the latest Android update sometime in mid to late Q2.
We have more good news related to Android 4.0, Ice Cream Sandwich, and can confirm that upgrades are planned for Verizon Wireless customers with the HTC Rhyme, HTC Thunderbolt, and DROID Incredible 2 by HTC, as well as the already announced HTC Rezound.In addition, the HTC Raider is on the list to receive ICS for customers of Rogers and Bell in Canada. Stay tuned for more news on Ice Cream Sandwich releases in the coming weeks.HTC
It sounds like we’ll be hearing from HTC again in a few more weeks to get another update about Android 4.0, so stay tuned. Is your HTC phone on the official HTC Android 4.0 update list?

Just when I thought they forgot about me…
Not that I’ll go back to a stock ROM, but it will make CM9 available that much faster…

Reply JesGuest 02/18/12 1:56 AM Thumb upThumb down 0This. I will NEVER buy a samDung phone ever again. My vibrant was totally abandoned by samsheet.
Reply 99Nick Gray 02/17/12 3:41 PM Thumb upThumb down +6If the HTC Explorer with it’s 512 MB RAM / 512 MB ROM and 600 MHz processor is getting Android 4.0, we should see a lot more updates announced in the next few weeks. come on HTC, I want an update for my T-Mobile G2!
Reply 98BetterWithRoot 02/17/12 5:56 PM Thumb upThumb down 0I recently sold one of my G2s to a friend for the cheap price of 140$. He loves it as much as I did/do. I am glad I got him into the Android Family. He was using a knock off Blackberry from Alcatel. He is very happy with his purchase. I hope it gets ICS for him and the rest of you G2 owners.

Reply DanaGuest 02/17/12 7:02 PM Thumb upThumb down -3I’ll believe it when I see it. HTC’s word means nothing. I made the mistake of buying a Blunderbolt when it came out. They don’t have the best track record of keeping their word.
Reply DROID SamGuest 02/17/12 9:15 PM Thumb upThumb down +5???? Seriously? HTC said the TB would get GB and it did. What else have they promised you and have not delivered on?

Reply 99Nick Gray 02/18/12 8:49 AM Thumb upThumb down 0They are working their way back on the list. I’m not expecting the EVO to get ICS, but you never know.
Reply DanaGuest 02/18/12 9:44 AM Thumb upThumb down 03 months of random rebooting and the timeliness of fixing the issues is my gripe. The fact they’re now giving away the extended battery on the TB also irritates me. They should have done that in the first place.
Reply 98BetterWithRoot 1 day ago Thumb upThumb down +1As a Tbolt user, I would recommend rooting & roming your nice piece of hardware. It does help the battery, I am not going to claim it goes all day or anything, but it does last longer than a few hours. I wouldn’t be able to tell you the last time I had a random reboot. There are you tube videos out there that walk you through it step by step.
