T-Mobile announced that the Android 4.0 update for the Sensation 4G will be available starting May 16th, and for the Amaze 4G 'in the coming weeks.'

Highlights from the soon to be released Android 4.0 update for the HTC Sensation 4G from T-Mobile include:

  • Sense 3.6 UI
  • System bar enhancements to easily view recent apps
  • Re-sizeable widgets
  • Lock screen actions including pull down notifications and adjust volume while device is locked
  • Data usage controls
  • Face unlock
  • Home screen folders
  • Improved battery life
  • Improved text input and spell checking
  • Improved menu structure

In case you don't get the update notification automatically tomorrow, you can initiate a manual download from 'HTC software updates' in your phones about menu. It's recommended that you connect to a Wi-Fi network to download the update, as it is going to be pretty large.



In other news, a similar update for the HTC Amaze 4G has been announced by T-Mobile to be available in the coming weeks. From the looks of it, it's set to feature an identical set of updates as the Sensation.
