Huawei has said they would update it, and they already released an Alpha build for the Honor (European version), but it still depends on whether Cricket decides to get the update from them, and so far they say they are undecided, so no guarantees. Hopefully they listen to their customers this time unlike the Ascend debacle, but personally I'm skeptical.
Did the Indulge ever get Gingerbread? I thought it was still on Froyo. As far as I know, the only upgrade to a full new version of Android was for the Zio, and that was probably a nightmare for their let's say, "under trained" employees. If they want to push out an "update" to add their stupid Muve music service, they can keep it. From what I've read, it made the Ascend 2 worse. I'm not saying Cricket won't do an upgrade to ICS, but I don't think it's a sure thing. The thing about Cricket is they don't seem to really care about keeping their customers, they put more effort into churning up new ones who have to buy a phone. If Cricket was really sure they were going to do the upgrade, you would think they would be shouting it from the rooftops, since that would be a huge selling point for their top phone. Instead, they are giving this "we don't know yet" answer which doesn't exactly inspire confidence.
