HTC EVO 4G LTE update brings Android 4.0.4 and Sense 4.1, dash of improved data for good measure

Give your [HTC EVO 4G LTE](http://www.engadget.com/2012/05/10/htc-evo-4g-lte-for-sprint-review/) a quick update scan if you haven't lately. Sprint has started pushing out an upgrade that brings its flagship phone both to Android 4.0.4 and to [Sense 4.1](http://www.engadget.com/2012/08/06/htc-sense-4-1-reportedly-leaked-with-custom-rom-for-one-x/), putting the EVO's software on a par with the just-unveiled [Desire X](http://www.engadget.com/2012/08/30/htc-desire-x-hands-on/). Patching up doesn't bring a revolution in features -- you'll mostly notice the known option to change the multitasking button's functionality and hide the on-screen menu key. However, there's a lot of Sprint-specific fixes that make the update worthwhile, such as an LTE "scanning improvement" that some owners suggest is improving their overall cellular data quality. If you already have the update, let fellow readers know how well it's working for you in the comments.

[Thanks, Jason]
