[Q] Which version Sensation have I got?

Hi. Bought my Sensation on eBay and I knew it would be an Asian version, but it hasn't received the update yet.
I've searched on the board for my Software Number, but no one seems to have mentioned it:
It's 1.28.720.2
Anyone got any ideas?

Same here Ive got the same version boughr it from some wholeseller btw what version is it? An no ota?

Well mine is the US version and the software version is 2.3.3 and the Application version is 5.3.7 if that's what you mean?

If you download the Quadrant Standard app. It's a useful app anyway.
Go to System Information on it and it will give you complete details.
Mine is an HTC Asia Tw, which means it is for the Taiwan region. Stuck on 1.28 though.

ICS in the UK

Apologies for what i know is another ICS thread but i read that it was being distributed in 30,000 batches based on CID.
now i just installed and checked my CID and it came up with CID_001 however i am yet to receive the update?
Does anyone have any ideas as to when/what CID's are being given the update first?

HTC__Y13 can make it.

CID__001 doesn't exist, HTC__001 does
As to who's getting it, it seems to be going through the Nordic countries at present and will roll out elsewhere in the coming weeks

Well then again, they never specified end of march in which year. Someone did mention that they had the update though. Been furiously pressing the check now button but my software still is "up to date." Urgh.

When I asked HTC_India on FB ..they deleted my post from their wall...coz they are busy on One X... ...Hope we will have this end of this month.

Tired of using check update button. I don't understand why HTC always delays in OTA for India. Are they not looking at India as market to grow?.

Just Wait
We will have to wait till HTC decides to update our devices...wait for godot...

Don't be so sad. Most of Europe didn't get it either.

Is there any rule that India should get it after E/W Europe? Since Malaysia, Singapore, Taiwan etc are getting it (i.e. SE Asia) logically India should have got it by now!

My sensation xe (India) has software nr. 1.77.720.103 , i don't think to many xe's have this build, so it is possible that this will get update later...

We'll get our updates man .. but as usual itll take the agonising equivalent of ages.

1.52.720.3 is the latest stock rom for sensation in India. So dont worry my friend, u are stock and you will definitely get it.

I was just about to say that... It is original stock... In fact... You cant change it till u do s_off... So don't worry... We will get it... Question is... When... Asian update was out the last i heard... But i dont know when it will hit India... I have the same config by the way.... Just waiting now... Bored reading other countries updating that they have received it...

Sensatio ICS update before 7th April
I spoke to Service Manager HTC Customer care, he told the update would available before 7th April....
keeping finger crossed and hitting the check update button like hell...more than 200 times a day

Hmm.... 7th april... So not march... That's disappointing... Neway... Going to stop checking for the update... Thanks man

Hi,
I'm in the UK with a Sensation XE which I purchased from a company in Hong Kong. I run it with a T-mobile sim card.
When I check my software version it says I am 1.77.720.103 like a couple on this thread.
If i use CID Getter it shows my CID as being HTC__038 and that my ro.carrier is HTC-India. When I first got it I had to change the locale to be english GB so that it received news articles to do with the UK.
I'm a bit puzzled by how exactly the phones receive the updates OTA. They obviously check a server somewhere which checks something on the phone and makes a decision whether to let it update or not. Is there not some way that I can change my phone settings so that it believes it is a UK phone and receives the update at the same time as other people in the UK?
Is there a way that I could flash my phone with a European/UK ROM so that I don't have to mess about changing locale etc?
Many thanks and apologies if this has been asked before as I could not find it when I tried searching.

Has anyone in UK receive official OTA

Im on Orange and still no sign of official update.

Nope, I'm on debranded stock ROM

This is just getting a tad ridiculous. Networks are releasing there ICS bloatware updates before the unbranded phones get it. I guess HTC said they'll release it at the end of March so they have 2 days left, the clocks ticking HTC

Nope, totally stock Sensation, but tbh i can wait as my phone works fine on 2.3.4 Gingerbread,

Vodafone UK getting it right now
yes, Vodafone UK members with the HTC Sensation are getting the update as we speak. Just started rolling out about 30min ago.

Sucks taking ages for HTC to get on with it. I assume stock ppl are on cid HTC__001 and the Vodafone update is via their own cid? How else does the update differentiate between phones?
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using Tapatalk

Yep, Vodafone users are getting the Vodafone build number (x.xx.161.x)

Hello,
Do people with SuperCID and stock unbranded Europe ROM get the ICS updates yet?

Hi Eddie I assume I should get the stock ota when its available using the ROM 1.50.401.1 and cid HTC__001. I am guessing no one had seen what the new firmware version for that will be yet?
Sent using tapatalk. HTC Sensation. debranded from three to f/w 1.50.401.1 stock build.

I'm guessing we should get ours in the next couple of days going by the nember of new threads starting where countries are getting the ICS update, Italy, Spain, Belgium.
Just checked again and nothing for UK unbranded

Can't believe everywhere in eu had got the ota except in UK unless you have a vodofone ROM. How annoying.

I know, gone are the days of apparant benefits of buying unbranded as opposed to directly from a network.....

Vodafone UK had the handset before it's SIM-free release and have had every OTA before the unbranded handsets too so the trend has continued it would seem
I just flashed the OTA file manually, a lot easier

even Greece & Switzerland has the update now, you know its a bad situation when a near-bankrupt country can have the update before the UK

Same for three they had it out early, but they are really sloow at releasing firmware because they like to customise such as disabling 2g overide but have small resources to do the customization.

Does look like we will be one of the last to get it sadly.

Might be the first to get a spelling-mistake-free one though!!

Ha true I am happy to wait aslong as they sort of most of the problems faced with the earlier releases. If not we can always play about in the Develop options!

I understand you refer to Greece with the near-bankrupt country and your surprise that they have it earlier than the UK, but Switzerland is actually rather advanced and quick in getting updates and devices.

Sense 5 seeding now for Indian users

I am updating right now.......
will post more later,,,,,

Some screen shots...
Phone feels very smooth and fast, camera looks improved and option for 60 fps video recording.
no zoe as expected.
need to test for couple of hours for further feedback....
Enjoy...

Nice. (although I do not like sense 5, I love the beautiful Sense 4+).
Your firmware have is 2.33.707.33 means that rom is for ASIA WWE (Include many other countries as Singapore, Indonesia, Thailand, Brunei, Vietnam, Cambodia, Laos, Malaysia...) but not for India. Firmware for India normally is x.xx.720.xx (709-751 for Taiwan, 708 for HongKong).
Because the above information are based on HTC One X, One X+ so I am not sure that it would be right in case of Butterfly.
Where did you buy your phone and what CID your phone have.

After the software update you will receive an 500+ mb update which will smoothly get installed, after this install there won't be any keyboard update found. So don't bother check again for the sense 5 update...

Did you manually check for the updates? I too didn't received the updates, even though the tick mark for automatic update notification is checked. I did check manually for update, first you will receive a software update for 5 mb, after installing it again check this time you will find the sense 5 update.
Many in India yet to receive the update. May be the wait is not more than couple of days, depending on the region.
