No point. Would still need source to make it fully functional.

Will we be able to use the source from the Nexus when that update is released...or will we have to wait for AT&T (or whichever carrier) to release their version of it?
So you guys do think that we will at some point get a jellybean rom?

Considering the GSM Galaxy Nexus came out before our device, and the fact its being updated...I wouldn't see any reason our device can't get in on the JellyBean fun.

Yes it may have come out before the vivid but the current and new nexus phones always get the current and new Android OS cause its Googles phones. The NExus came out with ICS out of the box, our vivid did not. It came with gingerbread. So Im sure if we do get a Jelly Bean OTA there will be a JB port before hand. That has always been my experience phones that already received an OS update before a new OS came out. Like with Froyo to GB or GB to ICS.
There isn't any reason why we shouldn't, after all my Captivate shipped with 2.1, and was on 2.3.5 after 2 updates, but it was sold in different times. When I got my Captivate the market for android phones wasn't near as saturated, and the Captivate was AT&Ts Galaxy S varient, only like their 5th android phone, and the other 4 were outdated teeny bopper texting toys. The Captivate was a no brainer for anyone who wanted a serious android phone in 2010 and wanted to stay on at&ts network. The result was a ton of owners, top notch xda support, and 2 major software updates as AT&T knew our contract would end eventually and wanted to keep us as customers.
Now times are different. The Vivid was one of many really, in fact it didn't even get the first LTE phone on at&ts network distinction, instead it had to share that with the skyrocket. And now the one x is out and the Vivid is kind of following in its shadow, not to mention HTC is struggling for business and is falling behind on upgrading other phones ie the rezound that came out the same time. I could see us being one and done. I hope we at least get a patch to deal with bugs at some point but I'm not holding my breath for jb

HTC released this statement.
"We are excited about Android Jelly Bean and are planning to support it across a variety of our devices. We are reviewing the software to determine our upgrade plans and schedule, so please stay tuned for more updates on specific device upgrade plans."
you can find the story at android central (i cant post links yet )
Maybe we will get an OTA before a port....
Yeah either way it'll take a while, it always does.

I came from the Samsung Infuse and when samsung said they were going to release an OTA it meant that there was no way the end user was going to get it. Either AT&T blocks it or Samsung never sent it. Thats why I am happy with HTC. The last couple of HTC devices have been pretty good with OTAs
My vivid was the shortest wait ever but as a flyer owner they aren't always so great :'(
Sent from my HTC PH39100 using xda app-developers app
You really think the Vivid will receive an OTA JB update? I highly doubt it. I'm just wondering if we will get a port.
To some extent yeah I could see it just because there are a lot of snapdragon s3 Htc phones out there so porting to our device isn't hard, and It's not very old. But I also could see us being one and done too as the one line is supposed to be a new beginning for HTC and that's their primary focus no doubt. But if we don't get it than I can't see any other phone HTC s3 based phone getting it either.

OTA- Huge possibility
Port- definitely
Only question is which shall come first?
You know what I bet we will get it. The Vivid was AT&TS flagship HTC phone until the one x and HTC will want us to upgrade to another HTC phone when our contract is up. But at the same time our ics Rom needs a stability and performance update, and if they gave us that instead I'd be happy

You only void your warranty if they can prove you flashed a custom Rom

friends you think AT & T officially actualize
jelly bean or believe that they will have to upgrade
by roms?
Most of the time AT&T is slow to release updates, they might release a device that uses Jelly Bean but only time will tell.

No way HTC or ATT release Jelly Bean for our phone. The ONE X might get it if HTC doesn't release another phone in the next couple months.

meh I'm not ready to give up yet. Maybe our phone wasn't the greatest seller, but it was the HTC flagship before the One X, it was released after the Nexus, and it sold no better than any other HTC snapdragon s3 based phone, meaning if they weren't going to bother giving us jelly bean, then I doubt any other HTC phone pre one-series gets it either. Also my Captivate I had before this got 2 updates, so I wouldn't hold my breath, but I wouldn't count them out either.

Totally agree with this, anyway ONE series are not having as success as HTC wanted to, so if they don't upgrade other phones to JB, and just give it all to one, think they won't be winning anything, instead they would be lose lots of clients... so far HTC is one of the most responsible about updating phones so, as Motorola lost lots of clients because of this and HTC is not going as well as they expected, I'm also a believer we're getting JB, just hope not to be wrong... anyway, time to time...
PS: Sorry about my english =/

HTC isn't the problem. AT&T is, and has always been, if you look historically at the way all Android manufacturers update devices.
Sent from my De-Sensed HTC Vivid using XDA Premium App
well if we get it look for 2nd quarter 2013 earliest. AT&T holds on to updates forever. The first beta leaks for the captivate gingerbread rom showed up in July, the leaked version we ended up getting leaked in November and we finally got it in January

Yeah but lightning rarely strikes twice. We got ics because our phone was at&ts announcement device. Not to mention HTC is still trying to get ics updates out to all the rest of its phones including the Vivids Verizon cousin, the rezound

I just saw the incredible s got 4.04 hopefully we will at least get that. 4.04 doesn't look any different but fixes alot of bugs.

Was the 3.44 Telstra release 4.0.4? If not, don't hold your breath.
I'll be very surprised if we get 4.1 even somewhere in the world. If anything, I'd hazard a guess that HK will get it as they are carrier-unbranded.
Yeah HTC is struggling and betting their future on the one series. The round of ics updates might be a fair well gift to all of us instead of continued support. It's all good I knew when I got my vivid that one update was probably all it would get. Times have changed since the captivate. The captivate was a flagship phone and if you wanted to stay on att and get an android it was that or a teenage texting toy. Now the market is flooded and manufacturers know that their competitors aren't any better about updates so they really have no incentive to update you.

It's not like our phone is super old and outdated. Only what like 6 months?? I just came from an Atrix 4G which is getting ics 3rd quarter of this year. If that phone can receive two updates then so can ours.
Sent from my HTC Vivid using XDA Premium
Anyway, branded or not, as 1 firmware is relased it'd be easier to build a ROM for everyone, isn't it?

Most of us want to believe it, anyway HTC has not officially anounced anything by now...about hardware, that's not a problem, we're at the same point as ONE S is, so, it's quiet "possible" to get JB update... but not confirmed, and about Atrix 4G... haha, got bored waiting for that update, tha's why I sold it and got my Vivid, those 2 updates (GB and ICS had to be given, at least because of how they announced that phone and what it really was)

I agree, my coworker has one of the new Razrs and he didn't get an OTA ICS update notification til about 4 days ago! (Verizon). There's no reason the development community should be so small or limited...

Allegedly, Bell Canada just relegated the Raider 4G to EoL status.

As bad as I am telling myself not to jump on this I will say that this device gets it after the One Max which I will be thinking the Max gets it by NY and then we will be very shortly after that.
Don't you think it'll be better if they give out candy for Halloween? SO WE WON'T PLAY TRICK with them!!!!!
I've found that HTC usually gives its flagship devices at least two updates so it will likely get kit kat. Christmas is pretty early though but who knows. I thought the Sprint One would never receive an update at all.

I'm sure someone will port it once the Maxx drops, with update soon after.

Why would you think that? Sprint is actually good at getting updates pushed out. They have to be good at something.
I'm thinking shortly after new years is pretty reasonable too.

With the state that HTC is in it would make sense for them to push out kitkat as soon as they could.
Did someone say port?

^^^This. I was pissed about not getting the 4.2 update but HTC redeemed themselves by getting 4.3 out so quickly. Still not gonna hold my breath...
Hi im not sure if this has been asked before or not, but i just wanted to know if it is possible to run a different launcher or UI on the HTC One? I am trying to make the decision to buy one after too many faulty Nexus 5's. What i would find ideal is to have the HTC One running Android KitKat 4.4.2 with Nova Launcher, is this possible? Also what are some of the best custom kernels one would recommend, i am used to Dev's like Franco & Faux, anything out there as good if not better for the HTC One??
Thanks in advance
Yes you can use any launcher you want. AFAIK the sense widgets won't work with them though

Great, thanks. Have you already got your KitKat update? How long does it usually take to get the Android updates on this device?

Not long at all if your installing ROMS. We don't usually wait as long as non root users so for updates. That's why I don't usually bother with update times when picking an android device because I'll always be a root user and get updates before everybody else.

For all I know everybody is praising HTC for they're quick update times on the One. I'm not 100% sure but I believe we recieved KitKat before any other Android device (Besides the Nexus 5 ofcourse)

Hello, i own a HTC One M7 since 6 months, and some how i sent it to the factory because of the Camera gradient issue, and after a month i got a new one, everything was similar, until i got a pop-up in May 21th about the new software Release it was the 4.4.2 with Senses 6, i searched the net and saw that this is the Developers Edition (DE) but i can't see any difference in the software information, like i saw one day that the normal one is named HTC One M7 and mine should be named HTC One M7 DE but i can't find it anywhere, and those it restrict something if i want to root, or it comes with S on or S off and what's the difference between them ? Please if anyone can help me and sorry for my bad english, i'm french

It just has to do with updates and one already being unlocked. Its not really important....if you look in bootloader it is s-on because htc wont s-off you....you can do that yourself. I would look at the different guides for rooting and flashing throughout these forums. They will help you alot.
