Froyo may have just hit the Nexus One, but HTC is already working hard to bring Google’s latest treat to a few of their other phones. HTC has informed Recombu that they are already working on porting their HTC Sense UI to Android 2.2 and have plans on releasing it for the HTC Desire, Legend, and Wildfire in Q3. We have already heard that HTC had plans to release Google’s latest build of Android to the HTC EVO and DROID Incredible during the summer. HTC Hero owners are still in the dark about a Froyo update and many are still waiting to get their hands on Éclair.
We are working hard with our partners to update the HTC Sense experience on Froyo and distribute it to our customers as fast as possible. We expect to release updates for several of our 2010 models including Desire, Legend and Wildfire beginning in Q3.
Keep in mind that “beginning in Q3” does not indicate that HTC’s Froyo rollout will be starting any day. The vague timing reference gives HTC a lot of leeway and will hopfully help them avoid the HTC Hero update fiasco.

am I missing something? does Q3 not start a day from now? Is July not the start of Q3?
Nope, you’re not missing anything. But “beginning in Q3″ sounds more like the rollout will start at the end of Q3 and continue into Q4. It could be another 2 months before HTC actually starts the OTA rollout of Froyo.
