The Taiwanese HTC puts on the brakes and backs down on its statements about the HTC Desire and the refusal to update it to Android 2.3 Gingerbread. Although yesterday they surprised through their official Facebook profile announcing that the efforts of the engineers to update that model so that it works with the latest version of Google's system and the HTC Sense 3.0 interface had undone the aspirations of an early update, today they change direction.
And it is that through the same route the company goes out to correct what has already been exposed, calling to calm the users of the HTC Desire, as well as those who were thinking of getting this mobile phone. The message has been as simple as it is explicit and clear: "Contrary to what we said yesterday we are going to update Desire to Gingerbread."
In this way, from HTC they erase at a stroke the faces of disgust and surprise that were chiseled in those who saw with displeasure the excuses that the Asian manufacturer had used as arguments yesterday to block the system of official updates of the Google platform in the HTC Desire.
As we told you, the company echoed the reactions of the firm's engineers, who would have referred to the performance of the terminal as a cause for leaving the HTC Desire on Android 2.2 FroYo.
Apparently, for the correct operation of HTC Sense 3.0 (the applauded interface of the house for Android) on Gingerbread, the 567 MB of RAM and the Qualcomm processor of one GHz would not have been enough for everything to be according to the standards of quality of the company.
And this despite the fact that the HTC Wildfire S (which does carry HTC Sense 3.0 and Android 2.3 Gingerbread) offers less powerful features. In any case, all these speculations go to the background after HTC has confirmed the arrival of Android 2.3 Gingerbread to the HTC Desire, which, however, is not yet dated.
