I just bought a Rezound last month, and I feel ripped off too. I’m going to remember this next time I buy a phone, HTC an Google.

Yep. I had trouble getting even a 1x connection at my desk with my Nexus, where before I was able to connect no problem with my HTC. The new radios have fixed this issue and I can now say my connection at my desk is the same as with every other phone I have used here at work.

I did the same thing. I traded in my DX2 after a few days due to major issues. Picked up the TBolt precisely BECAUSE I knew if I had issues, I’d be able to flash a different ROM to it. Thank god for that, because shortly after, the official update came out and caused the reboot issue. I flashed CM7 and it was an awesome phone for me until the Nexus came out. Passed it on to my wife who was using a D2. She loves it, even restored to “stock” Sense now that it has become stable. I really hope for her sake they decide to release an official ICS for it.

I’m another jackass with the Nexus I guess. Actually although most of us bought the Nexus specifically to “dick around” with it, the real forgotten thing in this whole deal is that the Nexus is probably the FIRST Android phone that you really don’t have to dick around with in order to get it to work right. It’s the closest thing to an Android phone for iPhone users you can find right now. ICS is totally killer.

Amen, brother. I had a Thunderbolt and really really liked it, once I was able to get a stable CM7 on it. The updates for reboot took forever, so I was glad the bootloader was able to be unlocked. That said, I also picked up a Nexus because I NEVER want to be reliant upon the manufacturer for support ever again. HTC and Verizon pushed the Thunderbolt ad nauseum as the killer phone. Verizon has even offered it recently on television now as a great 4G discounted phone. But HTC has treated it like the red headed stepchild and I don’t think I’ll be buying any more HTC phones after this. It’s Google-only phones for me going forward.

couldnt agree more!!! had incredible on release day then thunderbolt on release day. loved htc til i realized updates never happen. only reason i loved my thunderbolt is all the diff roms i flashed. Gave up on htc got my nexus on release day and love it!!! rooted and flashed cause i was addicted after my t-bolt. relized this phone is great right out of the box. went back to stock android and samsung hit it right on. hopefully samsung can lock down googles trust and have future nexus’. doubt it though with the whole moto thing

Curious about something. What does ICS do so different from latest gingerbread version that people are so anxious to have it on their phone. I tried the Galaxy Nexus and I just don’t see anything that fascinate me. All in all, both version does the same thing. It is just the interface. For me what is really important is call quality and connectivity. I am a first time Sense user and so far I really enjoy HTC sense. Their icons and interface are colorful and visually appealing. Web browsing is great with no problem. I honestly don’t know if I should install the update once the update comes in. I hope there is an option for it. Sometimes updates and new version is not always a good thing. Like using Office 2007 over Office 2003. I rather use the old office version. It is easier and gets the same job done

Should call it Neapolitan Sandwich when they’re done

With the S getting it, wouldn’t that mean rom makers could then just port over the builds to the INC2? I’m not sure how any of that works, but with the S at least getting it, it seems a lot more hopeful for a working ICS build than if the S wasn’t getting anything. I mean we already have working ICS on it, but buggy stuff like the camera could get ironed out. Hopefully

I still think the N1 was one of the sexiest looking phones ever released. HTC has a pretty awesome sense of aesthetics but you’re right…they really need to kill off sense or really, really scale it back like Moto did with Blur.

What are these “other countries” you speak of and why aren’t we bombing them?

Let’s hope so, but they list the Incredible s and not the Incredible 2 when they’re basically the same phone. I don’t get their reasoning.

As you can see, this list doesn’t have a single Verizon device.
Looks like HTC have a problem with Verizon.
