Tucked away neatly in the HTC One X+ press release was word that the HTC One S and the HTC One X would be getting a great software upgrade this month. The company confirmed that Jelly Bean would be headed to these two devices, as well as the latest version of HTC Sense — HTC Sense+, if you haven’t heard.
Sense 4+ will add Tap and Go, which is a feature that allows users to connect their smartphones to a Beats speakers’4 unit simply by tapping it with their phone. It’ll also bring a new version of HTC Watch, as well as a video hub app.
If you’re using a version of the device through a carrier you may be subject to delays as they do further testing and/or evaluation, but those with unlocked devices should be enjoying the device by Halloween.
I love it when they confirm firm it :D ;)
Remember when they confirmed that the Thunderbolt and Inc2 would get Ice Cream Sandwich by the end of August…….

I hope this includes some Jelly-Bean-love for my Evo LTE!
Agreed!! The LTEvo will be even more amazing with Google now and that Butter!!
Does this update apply to the sprint version of the one x as well? HTC EVO 4g LTE..because that’s what I have, and I have had every EVO since the original besides the shift and Id be really disappointed to not see jelly bean come to our device! :( :(
I can pretty much guarantee we’ll get Jelly Bean, just not sure when!? I’m hoping by the end of the year!!
I was thinking the same thing. If the other EOM upgrade there is no reason we wouldn’t get it. Our devices are already a ½ step than the X so the upgrade will only further enhance our devices.
Shouldn’t the title say “this month” instead of “this october”
Is this referring to U.S. carriers?
Coincidentally my One S got the 4.0.4 upgrade today, because Orange takes its sweet time.
But I can’t complain, the upgrade unlocked their new 4G masts so I can use HPSA+ mobile data! Looking forward to finally getting hold of Jelly Bean though, and playing about with Google Now
Dear HTC, please release this update for the Vivid too!
