Sprint Says: HTC EVO 3D to get OTA Update Today

by Alexander Maxham on January 12, 2012 12:50 pm

Sprint has posted that the HTC EVO 3D version 2.17.651.5 update should start rolling out today. It’s a minor maintenance release that addresses the following:

Updated Peep client (to align with Twitter)
Battery life improvements
Security update

I know you guys with the HTC EVO 3D are dissappointed you aren’t getting Ice Cream Sandwich yet. Yes, HTC did say they’d start rolling out ICS updates for their phones in January, but you know how updates are in the Android world unless you have a Nexus. Now back to the HTC EVO 3D and it’s newest maintenance release from Sprint and HTC.

The OTA should start rolling out to devices today, but you can manually force the update check by tapping Menu > Settings > System updates > HTC software update > Check now. Once you get the update let us know in the comments how well it’s working out for you.

HTC should have been Samsung. The HTC Desire (and its cousin the Nexus One) was the first really valid iphone competitor. In fact, it was the first phone that surpassed the iphone in specs and usability. They had a head start on everyone including Samsung. They’ve completely lacked vision since then and meandered to this point. I mean who’s idea was Beats? Every manufacturer was making bigger and higher res displays because mobile devices are all about the *visual* experience and HTC regress back to offering cheap earphones and a mediocre equalizer. Fortunately they still have the most solidly built devices, but I don’t know if that’s enough anymore.
