well, seemed like that's the best HTC company can do for Desire HD phones. very sad to hear that from a very competitive company. well maybe that's their way of treating loyal HTC customers. "no more upgrades, more disappointed customers." good strategy HTC!
HTC should understand the needs of their customers from the products they offer by providing continouos upgrades, that way we feel that we are valued. consistency is what we're looking for.
years from now, new HTC phones will likely to have the same problem. Feels so bad, and it keeps me away from buying new handset from HTC.
HTC, you broke my heart.

I read somewhere at forum@xda-developers.com that rooted device can not be update with next official ICS, even if it can it will brick the device. Is it true?

The desire hd & desire s will be getting official updates. HTC have already announced that along with the incredible s & sensation models.
This unofficial ROM is just giving people a choice & a chance to get the features sooner if they want to. This kind person who has ported this custom ROM does not work for HTC. He is using his spare time to do it.
By him choosing to do this does not mean HTC are no longer rolling out the official version of Icecream sandwich.

Camera do not work? The camera is one of the more important parts so if it were easy to fix it then I am sure it already would have been fixed!
