Help phone on 2.3.4 - no OTA update available?!

Hi all! I've been out of the Android loop for a few years...I won't say where I went.

I just bought my sister a nice used Dinc2 from Craigslist. Since she's only 14 and all she knows how to do on her phone is get on facebook and text, I wanted to get her on the latest version of Android for the Dinc2, which I thought was ICS. However, when I "check new" under the Software Update menu, I get "No new update available." I just activated the phone on her line this morning; will it become available after being activated for awhile? Hoping I didn't get a phone with issues.

Unfortunately, HTC never released ICS for this phone.

If you are willing to root the phone there are a lot of very good custom ICS ROMs you can install. Check through the All Things Rooted section above.
