This was also posted inthe petition thread but you'll notice they don't really site any particular source. In any case, they did confirm the one xl was getting sense 5 while I was emailing them about the One S

if by "confirm" you mean completely unsubstantiated rumors with zero mention of a source? If they really had this info, wouldn't they just take a picture of the spreadsheet or whatever they got it from?
Huh?.. Why would HTC spread a rumour to me in emails? They told me the one XL will be getting the update but that the One S would not but that it was not for sure if the North american One S would or not.

a) my comment was in response to the worthless article that cited no source at all

b) to shut you up? What do they have to lose? If they don't give you a date, they can constantly say "it's coming..." every time you bother them, until you sell your phone and lose interest. Like a phone company has never promised an update for a phone and then balked / not come through? Oh no, wait, it happens all the time.


Not trying to even say they lied to you, per se, it's just easy for them to say "sure, we have plans to do it" and never get around to it. These rumor threads are silly because there's no time frame or accountability.

I think you're getting excited for nothing, There's a petition and many of us I'm sure, are willing to boycott HTC should they decide not to update. These manufacturers have to be taught. No point in crying and getting all butthurt about it. If they decide not to update, we teach them by not buying anymore HTC products. That's just my 2c

And please don't say things like "To shut you up" I have the right to free speech just like you.

I'm not crying nor butthurt. Quite the opposite - I actually don't care if HTC updates or not. It'd be nice, but I'm not losing sleep on it (or writing petitions....). I just think these threads about unsubstantiated rumors are silly is all. If it's gonna come, they'll announce a release date; if they don't, no point in getting people excited / upset over nothing. It's completely empty filler.

Eh, boredom I guess. ;)

And unsubstantiated rumors are a pet peeve. I'll go away now, sorry :)
lol no need to apologize, as I said earlier, we all have a right to free speech!

Hopefully you will join in my boycott of HTC if they don't release updates. The more we are, the more likely they will learn!

Last I heard One X was getting the update September/October with XL to follow shortly after that making it October/November.
One S would have followed that with Nov/Dec/Jan which pushes it outside HTC's 18month rule which is probably why they decided they wont be updating it.

Actually, the S4 version of the One S IS getting the update, it's only the S3 version that isn't.

This is the second time in one week I'm hearing people say butthurt. Is it just me or is 24 considered old and outdated already lol
