Earlier this week, Jason Mackenzie, President of HTC America, announced that the Android KitKat version for the US Carrier-branded models of HTC One would be available within a week or two. Just yesterday, we saw HTC One updated to Android 4.4 KitKat on select Canadian carriers. However things may have changed as Sprint rolled out a notice on their community website that Android 4.4 KitKat is now available for Sprint's HTC One via “customer initiated request”.

This means that everyone who wants to update their Sprint HTC One device to Android KitKat version can do so by manually updating from the Settings menu. To manually check for an update, just go to Settings/System Updates/HTC Software Update/Update Over Wi-Fi Only.

It's good to see that at least a US carrier has received the HTC One KitKat update. If you own a Sprint HTC One phone and can't wait any further, open your settings now and update your HTC One to the KitKat version.

Update: It looks like Sprint may have stopped the update and scheduled it for February 11. It certainly wouldn't hurt to try it periodically if you wish.

Update 2: HTC Executive Director of Product Management Director, Mohammed Versi, announced via Twitter that the update is still available. The OTA hasn't officially started, but users can still manually pull the update now. Enjoy!!
