Google will never fix the situation on devices it doesn't sells itself, because it cannot. They cannot force manufacturers to provide update, because most consumers don't care. If you want a well updated phone, get a Galaxy Nexus. Apart from it, the only other phone in market guaranteed to be updated is iPhone. Better yet, consider switching to prepaid, and you will be less annoyed every time your carrier withholds the update. Most of the international versions do get updated, even if their record is not as stellar as Google/Apple.
