Verizon didn't even "officially" offer the merge through it's retail outlets so I doubt they're to concerned about updates.

In the leaked OTA update list, the Merge wasn’t listed... thus, the Merge isn’t a priority for VZW to updates, unfortunately. Moreover, VZW has since retired the device… so… take it as you will. I wouldn’t get your hopes up on a software update though. And as aforementioned, the device was only offered through 3rd party distributors. Would it be harsh to say in layman’s terms, VZW doesn’t really care about the Merge? L

I have contacted HTC and Verizon Customer Service about the update, know I understand not to get my hopes up but I will try.

are you sure? because htc doesn't include the merge on their list of devices to get it. have you seen one with ICS? i'm afraid you won't be getting ICS. where did you buy it? i didn't think they sold it anywhere anymore?

Isn't that the ICS update listing, AZ?

I think the OP is wanting the Gingerbread update for the HTC Merge. The phone might be running on FroYo for all I know.

I'm most definitely NOT a VZW employee. If a post answered your question, please mark it as the answer.
