Will we ever get Sense 3.0?

---

Well the HTC Incredible S seems like they are getting Sense 3.0 according to this.

Does that mean the HTC Incredible 2 will also be getting it?

I would think we will. Unoffically we already have Sense 3.0 as well as 3.5. So Htc is a little behind our devs on the releases

No. HTC has officially said no phone older than the HTC Sensation and EVO 3D will be getting Sense 3.0. They've all been backported from phones that are qHD and higher, and they said that they won't be porting it to WVGA resolution phones.

While that Incredible S tweet is pretty surprising, it still leaves doubt in my mind whether we will get 3.0 or not.

The Desire S is older than the 3Dvo and the Sensation and it got Sense 3.0. Also, if you ask on HTC's facebook wall something along the lines of "Is the Incredible 2 getting Sense 3.0", the response is something like "We are working to bring at least parts of the new version of Sense to older devices."

They're probably making an official skyraider like update.

really? cuz the desire s, desire hd, and inspire 4g all phones *older* than the inc2 and running very similar if not more outdated hardware and wvga res all have it officially by ota with the last 2 months...where do you think we've been getting the sense 3 roms to port from?

now official sense 3.5 will never happen id imagine for this phone...but if the inc s gets it via ota, we will as well (probably not til 2012 though when we ll be complaining about no ics yet)

If HTC operated in the manner things do here they'd be out of business. They're QA testing is probably pretty rigorous when it comes to updates and they can't just roll out an update with "Please let us know of any bugs!". That works for an environment like this where people are willing to work through and deal with issues but this is only a small small percentage of their market.

htc is generally pretty good about updates (i really didnt think the og inc would get gb officially which it did...boads well for eventual ics sense on this phone)

with the exception of the tbolt gingerbread disaster of course

my only gripe would be that they tend treat similar devices a tad differently...we were getting a sense 2.1 ota to 2.3.4 while the desire hd and desire s had already gotten a 2.3.5 sense 3.0 ota

i guess we could put the blame on verizon for that (hey why not) but idk
