I agree. I came from a blackberry curve, so I'm more than content with the OSD as it is, although it would be nice to hear "ok guys, truthfully ICS will be released in december".

[gaz1969]

even the 1st of october will be ok for me

[shootomanUK]

Maybe its coming september next year lol

Subject: ICS upgrade X900

Since September is now officially over can we presume that we were lied to when you said it would be coming in September?


Still looks like an automated response to me.

[BlueMoonRising]

Ha ah, Orange have updated their 'contact us' page. E-mail is still "unavailable" but there is a link to a Twitter and Facebook feed. I've posted queries on both.

"Any update on ICS rollout for the Orange San Diego since September is now history? Also any chance of JB in the future as Intel employees already have it on their personal phones?"

Waiting with no anticipation at all.

Why would lava say Ics Is coming when they know it is not ? 3 times they have not delivered, is this some kind of wind up or what

Also worth noting it is now October, the time orange said Ics was being released by them, yet they know nothing about it, I believe it was paul who got that  information from orange.

Surely Intel will not be happy if their devices dont get the upgrade that they put together for their devices ?

Like Ribs85 says previously there could be various genuine reasons for it but it the total blank on an honest reply that destroys any confidence in them or Orange to deliver.
Just a simple explanation rather than a generic "we're working hard on it" reply would do wonders.

3 hours and no reply to Twitter or Facebook queries. In fact my Twitter messages don't even appear.

I am a bit of a novice where Twitter is concerned, has anyone else tried Oranges and at least seen their message appear? Or are they filtering content?

[jikobutsu]

I was noting earlier how there have been no more comments on their facebook page since 25th September ? Almost like comments have been disabled

Oh wait.....there are new comments on facebook, they have dropped the price of the device, no suprise there.
Dont know what to make of this comment:

"mere paas intel ki unsigned ics update h....I cannot flash it becoz bootloaders are locked"

3 reply's from Orange, 2 on Twitter and 1 on Facebook :-  "We haven't heard anything on that yet", "I'm afraid we don't have any info on updates to the San Diego at this time." and "Hi, We are chasing this up for you now and will get back to you as soon as we have some info. I hope this helps!" (not really).

At least they eventually replied although not the answer I was hoping for.

Official ics is not out in uk yet.they released a version on there website but pulled it so now we are just waiting.
So far openGL= yes
Full hw accelerated ui= no

The osd looks a cracking device but the lack of root is stopping me. Fingers crossed ics brings something new to the table.im following this thread
Good luck!

You misunderstood me, sir.  I fully believe we'll get ics eventually. I just don't believe they will skip ics and go straight to JB, and that's what is causing the delay, which is what I was replying to.

We might not even get JB at all, it somewhat depends on what the carriers want do to. Hopefully we'll have an unlocked bootloader by then.... One can dream...

But ICS,  yeah, we'll eventually get that.

[jikobutsu]

Latest from Facebook is that ics has now been sent to google for approval, so if that is true it wont be long now. But why the false promises of dates they know they cannot deliver, very unprofessional.
