Both HTC and Sprint will hold a joint operation event on April 4th, in New York City. The exact device (or devices, even) have not even been teased by the companies, including Sprint CEO Dan Hesse and HTC President Jason Mackenzie, both of whom will be on hand at the event. A possible (and coat this with a grain of salt, as it where) announcement is the HTC One X, an incredible Android 4.0 with Sense 4.0 smartphone, containing a dual-core Snapdragon S4 processor, 4.6-inch 720p high-definition display and the class-leading 8-megapixel camera powered by HTC’s dedicated ImageChip.
On April 4th, we shall see.
The renowned smartphone-maker from Taiwan, HTC, has made it official on Wednesday that 16 of its recent Android devices will see an Android 4.0 sometimes this year. Those devices are that will see an Android 4.0 update are: the DROID Incredible 2, Amaze 4G, Desire S, Desire HD, EVO 3D, EVO Design 4G, Incredible S, Sensation, Sensation XL, Sensation 4G, Sensation XE, Raider, Rezound, Rhyme, Thunderbolt and Vivid.
Out of all the smartphones in that list, only the Sensation and Sensation XE have seen some OTA downloads of Android 4.0 in the last few days; the Sensation 4G and Sensation XL are scheduled to follow afterwards. Additional updates will be “more widely available in the next few weeks.” Via: HTC
Now this is interesting — pumping 10,000 volts of energy through the main frame of the HTC One S to make it many times stronger than aluminum or steel. Essentially it’s been struck by lighting and lived to tell the tale. Now that is something to get excited about if you’re picking one up on T-Mobile USA later this year.

This is the HTC One S. It’s a smartphone with 42MBps HSPA+ data speeds on T-Mobile will debut this Spring (at least by April). It measures 7.9mm thin, has a 4.3-inch AMOLED qHD screen, a dual-core 1.5GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 processor, a 8-megapixel camera (same as the One X), 16GB of internal storage plus 25GB of free cloud-based Dropbox storage for two years. Other than that, not much else is incredible different than the HTC One X: it has an Android 4.0 ICS software build with Sense 4, and no prices to make mention of at the moment.
The HTC One X! A 4.7-inch 720p HD Super LCD with Gorilla Glass, Android 4.0 (with Sense 4) out of the box, a 1.5GHz Snapdragon dual-core processor, 32GB of internal storage with 25GB of Dropbox storage, a 1.3 megapixel front-facing with 720p HD recording, and some serious photo specs: f/2 optics with an 8-megapixel back illuminated sensor and 1080p video capture. Beats Audio enhancements are also present on AT&T’s 4G LTE network, all in a 9.27 millimeter thin package with an 1,800mAh battery.
No prices yet, but still it looks to be a top-notch Android device worthy of combating the flagship Galaxy Nexus and comes out within the next 60 days on AT&T.

This is exactly what we wanted to happen: first the HTC Endeavor is leaked (see news of it on the podcast) and then the RUU (ROM Upgrade Utility) gets leaked with the Android 4.0 and Sense UI ROM included inside for the upcoming Endeavor. All of this means that we get to see what Sense UI looks like on Android 4.0 without having to wait as long. And dare I say, it looks impressive with the subtle changes it has gone through. There have not been many tweaks to make note of so far, but mostly the aesthetic has been slightly polished and reorganized, with new lockscreen options to boot. Check out the source link for the full analysis of the software build.
