Earlier this week, America’s two predominant GSM carriers, T-Mobile and AT&T announced they had received clearance to start pushing the latest version of Kit Kat, 4.4.2 onto their flagship HTC One models. According to reports, that push has now begun for T-Mobile. The AT&T model should start pushing out shortly.
The original “promise” from HTC is that they would have the latest update pushed within a 90 day window. That announcement was made a little over 90 days ago in October, but they have at least stayed true and pushed the latest update. The announcement came originally from @moversi, executive director of product management at HTC.
T-Mobile HTC One Owners! We have received technical approval for 4.4 OS + Sense 5.5! Expect the OTA out shortly! Thank you for your patience— Mo (@moversi) February 21, 2014Another Great News! We have received AT&T’s technical approval for the HTC One w/4.4 + Sense 5.5. Looking to get the OTA out soon. Thanks!— Mo (@moversi) February 21, 2014
The 4.4.2 update brings the following enhancements according to their own OTA changelog:
System improvements:
- Android 4.4.2 update
- Security enhancements
Printing improvement:
- Cloud Print Service
Bluetooth improvement:
- New Bluetooth profiles to support more media interactions
These updates are typical across the board for anyone making the upgrade to Kit Kat 4.4.2. They also suggest making sure the phone is connected to Wi-Fi and has a nice, full battery. The software update does run around 565 MB.
Sense 5.5. brings the following improvements:
- Updated BlinkFeed
- Redesigned Gallery application
- Lock screen widget setup
- Do not disturb
- Improved Highlights management
- Low light enhancements
Great enhancements all around for the both variants of the HTC One. Many of our T-Mobile readers have probably already seen the same, but if you are on AT&T let us know when you begin to see this update in the comments.
