AT&T HTC One running leaked version of Android 4.3 plus new Sense
Sure to be a relief to most HTC device users, the Taiwanese smartphone manufacturer seems to have kept its promise of a speedy update to its top devices. Seen here is a leaked version of HTC’s Sense UI paired with Android 4.3 on an AT&T branded HTC One. Our own moderator team leader, Kevin O’Quinn, has the scoop.
I haven’t come across any deal breaking bugs, or bugs at all. I’ve tested BT, wifi, NFC, etc. Everything works as well as we would expect.
While he is still experimenting with this latest software, he appears to feel very certain of it’s fluidity, for a leaked version at least. More time will tell for certain. Want to give it a try on your AT&T One? For the time being, an unlocked bootloader and custom recovery is needed to flash this baby, but if you meet that criteria, feel free to join us in the forums and let us know how it’s running for you! A hands-on video of this beauty in action can also been seen at the forum link above.
No word yet on suspected release dates from the carriers, but as Kevin also has to say:
If this is indeed the same as what’s going to go out OTA when it finally drops I think everyone will be very happy.
The upcoming months hint at satisfaction as we all anxiously await this official update. In the mean time, we can only hope the carriers show the same urgency as HTC when releasing the OTA. That means you, Verizon.
