HTC Sensation running Android 4.0 ICS and Sense 3.6 homescreen

Limited numbers of HTC Sensation and Sensation XE owners in Europe have been receiving over-the-air (OTA) updates to Android 4.0.3 Ice Cream Sandwich and Sense 3.6. HTC had eluded in a previous statement that the Sensation and Sensation XE would be getting an early taste of Ice Cream Sandwich in Europe with entire line (including the Sensation 4G and Sensation XL) to be updated by end of March.

The update comes as a hefty 200MB+ download and seems to be rolling out to individual countries in stages and specifically to unlocked (i.e. without carrier branding) handsets. If you have an unlocked European handset and are anxious for the update, you can download the leaked HTC RUU 3.30.401.101 and 3.30.401.1 on a Windows computer to manually update either handset.

HTC Sensation owners in Europe are slowly getting an over-the-air (OTA) update to Android 2.3.4. The update is being rolled out to different countries in stages, so don’t worry if you haven’t yet received a notification for the update — though it might help going to ‘Settings > About Phone > Software updates’ and pressing ‘Check Now’. Mind you the update is for unbranded, i.e. not carrier specific, handsets. Branded handset owners might have to wait a bit longer for the update to be rolled out by their carriers; we will post a guide on how-to change your carrier ID so that you can get the update now.

HTC Pyramid Android smartphone

Renders of an upcoming Android smartphone from HTC, christened Pyramid, have emerged on a Chinese website. The list of specifications suggests this will be HTC’s flagship phone for the year.

The smartphone, which follows HTC’s design mantra, is claimed to feature a 4.3-inch Super-LCD 960 x 540 resolution display, 1.2 GHz processor, 768MB of RAM and front and back cameras. The website claims that the HTC Pyramid will be running Android 3.0; this however contrasts with what we’ve been hearing from Google that for now Honeycomb will only be used for tablets, so we’ll guess that it will most probably be running Android 2.x.

In addition, two Windows Phone 7 handsets have surfaced, named HTC Ignite and HTC Prime, both sporting a 3.7-inch 800 x 480 display while the latter opens up to reveal a physical landscape keyboard.
