Jelly Bean for Telstra HTC One XL coming in the ‘next couple of months’

Telstra has just tweeted in a response to Mobile Nova that the next update in  line for the HTC One XL is the Android 4.1 Jelly Bean update, scheduled “in the next couple of months.”

The Telstra rep also stated that the Android 4.0.4 update which is rolling out around the world should be coming to the One XL. However, the Jelly Bean update is the only one in the schedule at the moment. The 4.0.4 update comes with Sense 4.1, which gives you the ability to move the hideous menu button to a new position. You are given the choice to override the multi-tasking capacitive button and make it act as the menu button.

@mobilenova I’d imagine so, though next scheduled update I know of is Jelly Bean – Android 4.1 – in the next couple of months. -Justin

This comes after Telstra already let it slip that the One S and One XL will be updated to Jelly Bean. We now however have somewhat of an (un)official confirmation of the timeframe we can expect for the update.

Just like for the Galaxy S III and other high-end Samsung devices, it looks like we can expect the One XL to be update to the latest and greatest by year’s end – if not earlier now.
