Just entered internal testing phase at TMO. Won't come this month. HTC said they would release it by end of this month and THEY did! They released it to TMOBILE. It is now up to TMobile to verify, test, and push out, and I'm sorry to say they have promised nothing in the way of time frames. IF all goe well with internal testing, look for the release in the second half of April to first half of May.

What you have to remember is, when HTC promises a timeframe, that does notnjnclude the timeframe it takes the US carrier to release and update (phones that have the same model, but sold both internationally and in the US).
So as to when T-Mobile will push an ics update, well it's really impossible to tell.

T-mob tech support
T-mob tech support referred me to HTC's tech support number.
I called the other day about being sent to the teathering web site every time I use my browser, and they told me it's a known issue and tech is currently having issues with ics on their network. So they are probably trying to make everything compatible still

T-Mobile ICS upgrade
My suspicion is it's going to be a long time, if ever, before we see an official T-Mobile USA ICS upgrade for our Sensations.
Reasons being:
An ICS OTA upgrade will result in a huge bump in calls to T-Mobiles support lines. Having worked in a call center the last thing they want is more calls as more calls mean more $$ going out the door.
An ICS upgrade for the Sensation might undercut sales of the upcoming HTC One, which T-Mobile definitely doesn't want to do.
It would not surprise if the upgrade doesn't come before the fall or even if they blow it off completely. Just my opinion.

Yeah, what you said is not gonna happen. T-mobile upgrades phones all the time. They upgraded the mytouch from froyo to gingerbread, so why would they not upgrade the sensation from gingerbread to ics. They will get more calls to cs for not upgrading it than If they upgrade and have problems. But it will take a little longer, because they gotta get their bloatware working with it.

I think he was just referring to the other guy above, no quote just a bit confusing!
You people are so positive! I think that they are simply working to make their bloatware compatible with ics. The first thing I would do is delete that junk.
The tricky thing might be getting Wifi calling to work on ICS. I know some of the Rom developers were having trouble getting this working.
HTC Confirmed that the "Sensation 4G", which is T-mobile's branded version will get ICS, so I certainly think it is coming.
I am just worried their marketing team will push it off till after HTC One and Galaxy SIII launch so they get a bunch of people upgrading/renewing for pre-installed ICS phones...

Yep, my Sensation just updated to the newest Play store - v.3.5.15 along with a slew of apps that needed to be updated - some good, some bloated; among them Flash player 11 and slacker radio. So maybe these updated apps push may have something to do with ICS incompatibility.
Regardless, T-MO will eventually send out an ICS update. I'm hoping next week, but realistically, sometime in April. May would be a complete joke.
No ICS anytime soon...
Today T-Mobile started replying on Facebook to inquiries regarding ICS on the Sensation with variations of the following "T-Mobile USA Oh you're sporting the sensation, nice! right now we have done some tests with what HTC has provided us for ICS on the Sensation and the results were not exactly what we needed so HTC is currently working on fixing the bugs so we can roll that out. ^KM" In short they are saying they've run into problems and sent it back to HTC for review. Don't see this coming out anytime before the second half of the year.

Personally, I would wait for CM or another rom to come out. Video chat will probably be optimized (among other things) in those roms anyway and there is no telling what this will do to root. It may "fix" root and plug up the exploit so that you are back at square one again.

It's the same update we know about.
I would love cm on here but I hope there will be some way to keep the genius button. That's one piece of bloat ware that I love. I heard someone with a g2 had it on their rooted device so maybe a easy to add it to our custom ruins when they come out?

I wonder if it matters which data plan you're on regarding getting the OTA's...? I'm on mytouch unlimited web, but I think the newest one is 4G unlimited web.

I was wondering about that also. If it was to plug a hole, it will become evident if those with the 2nd OTA find that the s=off and/or the rooting itself procedures no longer work. And then there is tethering....
Would TMo be that mean ???
If you make a backup using Clockwork, could you just reflash to get back to where you were if the new OTA takes away root?
If it's just a Qik update, can Qik from the new version be pulled from it and then installed on a phone without the newest OTA?
no because you need root to nandroid your phone
Only one update. If you have 2.2.1 thats the update for qik and some bugs; I got the email from HTC in their monthly news email.

I agree. The sensation is one sexy phone. What I hate about HTC phones is their screen. Even though is qhd a super lcd will never show better colors than an ips panel. I love the screen on the g2x. The screens on my evo and g2 were pretty bad
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA App
Ive had the G2x since day one, and Im thinking ... goodbye LG and hello HTC
I cant believe I got fooled into buying a phone by LG.. They spend zero time QAing their code, and we have to pay for that. I should of known better. Ive never had such issues with any other phone (and Ive had plenty of androids), as I do with the stock G2x.
This is when I decided that its time to go back to my beloved HTC and forget about the rest. At least they know how to make phones!
It would be nice to crack up the bootloader and be able to put custom roms, but all I need right now is a dependable phone, and the LG just aint it.
Plus Im sure the bootloader issue wont be an issue soon, looking at all the devs that are working on that phone...
And just to add one more thing - I cant believe that MDJ is working on ROMs for this phone... I remember back in the Hd2 times - that was the best ROM, and I bet its still that way!
Happy to hear im not the only one with a G2X getting ready to sell it on ebay. All the problems this phone have given me are just not tolerable, the constant restarts, loss of signal are nothelping, Given htc might leave this bootloader locked for a while and i do understand why aince htc watch allows you to buy movies which people can then distribute. Anyhow i hope this is released soon or let alone allow preorders.

Yes, don't you love those announcements? "BY the 15th". So for all we know it could be tomorrow (which would be smashing but won't happen. I hope they don't sell out. It's what sucks about relying on others to get the phone for you
Maybe the extra week is to unlock the bootloaders on them? Still disappointed, though. Ugh.
So there's already been one update for Euro and now today people are getting 2.3.4 on Euro Sensations? WTF? I paid $600 USD for my T-mobile Sensation 4G...I should have just bought the Euro one so I would get updates.
I don't understand why HTC hasn't even released a maintenance update for T-Mobile Sensation to fix some of the bugs. Frustrating.
Relax guy, you've had the phone for what, 6 weeks? The phone came out first in Europe so its perfectly reasonable that they'd get the updates first. Be patient.

I've been tempted - I've rooted all my previous phones including my G2X that I still have but the problem is I now have work email/calendar on my Sensation via Good For Enterprise. That has a root check that will disable it if you're rooted - there's ways to work around it but it's a bit of a pain. Also I'd rather not root or touch my Sensation if I can get the update from HTC - having done this with many phones, while it's not always as fast the stock ROM on phones is usually the most stable/reliable (big exception is the G2X )

Good for Enterprise does not have root check. I have rooted Samsung Vibrant with CM7 on it and Good works no prob.
I had a great conversation with a lady named Monica at HTC call center in Indiana while processing my back cover exchange...She said they are indeed working on the update now and it is in a testing phase...She said that once it clears that then its up to T-mobile to push it out and we have like 3 updates she said. Why so many? IDK but she was very informative and nice.
So in theory she says they have a team that is ALWAYS working on every phones updates until that phone can no longer be supported anymore. So she said not to worry that it is coming and we should see at least 2 by September. Take it with a grain of salt, but I see no reason to not believe her.
Sounds more like a g2x forum with all the update stories
You guys should try baadnewz 2.1 rom which is based on the european 2.3.4. Sense is a pleasure to use on 2.3.4.

They most likely did send it to ATT but that is where it will most likely stay. You would be amazed how many WM releases we had that HTC pushed and sent to carriers that never made it to devices. She was right on her end. They are pushing the update but here in the states no OEM controls the software updates. Our carrier does
Yea that's how it goes all my HTC phones in the past got updates but way slower then UK and unbranded due to the FCC we might never get updates like Europe my Verizon wireless phone HTC incredible got a 2.3 update that was very much needed but we never expected vzw to send it out there was like 4 delays and one day it was out lol

Been on ATT smartphones for far to long to hold out any hope. Once the phone goes EOL it is company policy that no more updates are to be given. Per ATT guidlines phones go EOL after 8 months. But here to hoping lol
I was speaking with a HTC customer service today with a basic support issue and while i was on the phone with them i asked about android 4.0. I take most claims like this with a grain of salt but being that this is from HTC tech support I assume that it is a reliable source. According to HTC, the ICS update for the T-Mobile Sensation
4G was released to be pushed YESTERDAY with the initial push starting today through April 1st with a schedualed upgrade completion by the end of april. I know there are a lot of naah sayers that will want to attack this post because they believe that it will be summer time or never or after the release og the HTC One S and to counter those comments before they happen i want to say very blatantly "I DONT CARE".
Man I hope whoever told you that was not BSing you. That would be great cause I want to wait for the official update before I S-off, flash a custom recovery and then a custom ICS ROM to my current Sensation.

Well to be honest it does make a difference, the difference being that I want to wait for the OTA. I have that right right you know. Not to mention I rather like the Visual Voice Mail app.
Don't get me wrong I tried several of the very first alpha and Beta ICS ROMs on my original Sensation. It was S-off and Super CID with a custom boot animation that I had made for myself. But it crapped out on me with total shutdown, it would not charge or turn on. And it did this very suddenly. So I had to get a replacement from T-Mobile and I want to keep this one stock until I get to try out the Official OTA for the T-Mobile HTC Sensation 4G. I am doing this just in case I want to request another replacement for any reason, oh and did I mention my replacement had bad dust under the screen so I am really considering replacing it anyway. That is another difference it makes. So as you can see you did not know all the variables and really should not have said something so arrogant. And it does make a difference.
Last night around 10:00 pm T-mobile sent a text and it said OTA UP three times, so I believe something is up......
Last nite I did the *#*#checkin#*#* thing and it came back with updates for almost all of The tmobile branded preinstalled apps.

Man I hope whoever told you that was not BSing you. That would be great cause I want to wait for the official update before I S-off, flash a custom recovery and then a custom ICS ROM to my current Sensation.

If I were you I'll do the S-OFF NOW...once the update been push there's no way to get s-off with hboot 1.27,
Robocik just got his phone back and can't get soff,so he brick his phone
To all US T-Mobile remember if you want S-OFF do it now.

I just got an OTA but it is NOT ICS OTA.
I got a simple update for Gingerbread. My software number is now 1.50.531.1 before OTA it was 1.45.531.1.. Perhaps it's a prerequisite update ahead of the ICS OTA?

The 1.50 update was from December.

A little late to the party I see.
HTC Sensation 4G w/ Beats Audio
Doubt it
On their Facebook page the last couple days T-Mobile has been responding to inquiries about ICS on the Sensation with variations on the following theme "we are currently testing ICS on the Sensation but it isn't the experience we are looking for so HTC is working on our feedback before we send it out and we don't have a time yet. " Doesn't sound like it will be out anytime in the next few weeks. It sounds like T-Mobile and HTC will end up pointing fingers at each other leaving us waiting till at least the second half of the year for our ICS.

Well to be honest it does make a difference, the difference being that I want to wait for the OTA. I have that right right you know. Not to mention I rather like the Visual Voice Mail app.
Don't get me wrong I tried several of the very first alpha and Beta ICS ROMs on my original Sensation. It was S-off and Super CID with a custom boot animation that I had made for myself. But it crapped out on me with total shutdown, it would not charge or turn on. And it did this very suddenly. So I had to get a replacement from T-Mobile and I want to keep this one stock until I get to try out the Official OTA for the T-Mobile HTC Sensation 4G. I am doing this just in case I want to request another replacement for any reason, oh and did I mention my replacement had bad dust under the screen so I am really considering replacing it anyway. That is another difference it makes. So as you can see you did not know all the variables and really should not have said something so arrogant. And it does make a difference.

Well when you make a vague statement that doesn't really make sense to anyone but you.. You kind of invite people to say something...
I for one, feel invited.

Really, I mean really! Was any of that necessary, no it is just something to feed ones ego with. I think that XDA senior member kingston73 has it right, XDA " Could be even better without the egos...".
It will get here when it gets here. To be honest, I don't think tmobile is in any rush.

Idk why everyone is so impatient for T-Mobile to release ics ..I have T-Mobile USA and for example....gingerbread (stock from T-Mobile) was terrible
..wait...horrific! compared to what our friends here at XDA did. ..what makes u think ICS from T-Mobile extra inflated with all the bloat T-Mobile adds in is going to be any where close to the ics roms we have on xda already?
