HTC Sensation 4G Android 2.3.4 Update Starts Rolling Out

Adam Mills —  08/18/2011

HTC Sensation 4GT-Mobile has just announced that the HTC Sensation 4G‘s upgrade to Android 2.3.4 Gingerbread has begun to roll out and may not complete until sometime in September. That’s right, this is a true OTA folks and it doesn’t appear that it can be pulled manual until T-Mobile rolls it out to you. That means that it could be a couple of weeks before some of you see it. Bummer, but hey, the improvement list is pretty substantial.

So here’s what we got coming with the update, according to T-Mobile:

New Features

    • Software stability
    • Improved battery life

Improvements

    • Improvements to Trace dictionary
    • Improvements to screen responsiveness
    • Improvements to video playback
    • Improvements  regarding device reboot / power off
    • Improvements to icon  pixilation
    • Improvements to Wi-Fi connection
    • Improvements to screen/photo resolution

Not bad, right? So, now, I recommend smashing down on the ‘Check’ option in your HTC software updates section of your phone. You might just find a nice little surprise awaiting you.

Anyone seeing it yet?

  1. IT WILL BE INTERESTING TO SEE IF THIS UPDATE AFFECTS OVERALL PERFORMANCE LIKE THE SENSE 3.0 “LAG” WHEN YOU PAGE THROUGH HOME SCREENS WITH THE ANIMATION TURNED ON OR EVEN THE VARIOUS BENCHMARK TESTS LIKE QUADRANT AND THE LIKE. SORRY ABOUT THE ALL CAPS, I WAS IN HEADS DOWN MODE!

  2. I just got it on my sensation

    Haven’t noticed much difference but haven’t had a reset all day. So that’s good. Screen lag appears to be gone.
