The update is said to be in its beta phase although there is no word on how long it will be staying that way, or when T-Mobile HTC One S owners can expect to receive it, but either way it’s still good news because it’s still a sign of progress as opposed to being left in the dark.

Good news HTC One S owners, if you own the global variant of the handset, you might be pleased to learn that the Android 4.1.1 Jelly Bean update is reportedly making its way onto your handset. The update was said to be pegged for a release sometime in October, but given that it’s only rolling out now, we guess it was late. Then again we guess better late than never, plus it seems like a great way to end 2012, doesn’t it? Unfortunately this update appears to be available only for the global version of the One S, which means that those of you who own a carrier-locked version of the HTC One S in the US, well you guys might have to wait since updates will need to be carrier-approved before being pushed out. If you own the global HTC One S but have yet to receive the notification, be patient as we’re sure the update is being rolled out in batches, but in the mean time you can always try pulling it manually by checking your phone for updates in the Settings menu. If you have received it, let us know in the comments below.

Good news HTC One S users, if you bought your device from T-Mobile, there have been reports that the latest Android 4.0.4 Ice Cream Sandwich has begun rolling out to you guys. There has not been any official word from T-Mobile just yet, so we’re not sure what sort of change will be made. However according to some users who have posted what they have noticed, the update has improved stability with connectivity across the board, such as WiFi, cellular data and even Bluetooth, aiding with signal fluctuation and whatnot. Since there has been no official announcement, there is a chance that this could be a soft rollout, or it could be rolled out in stages so fret not if you haven’t received yours yet. You can always try to pull it manually by going to your phone’s settings and checking for System Updates. In the meantime for T-Mobile HTC One S owners who have received the update, let us know in the comments below on how it is treating you!
