While last month HTC reportedly
started rolling
out Android 5.0 Lollipop OS to HTC One handsets in India, the Taiwanese
tech firm is now reportedly rolling out the update to the
HTC One (E8), Desire Eye, and Butterfly S.
While the
HTC Butterfly S and
Desire Eye
are said to be receiving the Android 5.0.2 Lollipop update in Taiwan,
the HTC One (E8) is receiving the update in Hong Kong. Users can expect
the update to arrive soon in other regions as well.
Notably, the HTC Butterfly S which was
launched back in June 2013.
According to tipster LlabTooFer, the Android 5.0.2 Lollipop update for HTC Butterfly S is
sized at 708.86MB with ROM version 5.16.709.3, while the HTC Desire Eye's
update is sized at 1008.9MB (ROM 2.19.709.1) and
955.27MB with ROM 2.33.708.3 for One (E8).
The firm has however, not yet confirmed the rollout. LlabTooFer adds that HTC with certain models, will be
skipping bundling Sense 7.0 UI (debuted on the
HTC One M9) with the Android 5.0.2 Lollipop update, and instead roll out the new UI to those phones with Android 5.1 Lollipop.
The tipster also
noted that out of the above mentioned handsets, the HTC Desire Eye along with the
One (M8),
One M8s and
Butterfly 2 will be receiving the latest Sense 7.0 UI, along with select other smartphones.
HTC last week started
issuing a system software update
that claims to fix issues with the rear camera of the HTC One M9. As
per the report, HTC One M9 seems to be taking better photos in both
bright and low-light conditions, both indoors and outdoors, with sharper
images, less noise and wash-outs, and more vibrant colours after the
update.
