Samsung Galaxy Tab 8.9: Like US Cellular, AT&T must've put this one on the back burner and then forgotten about it. Sadly, the Ice Cream Sandwich update isn't available over the air, so you'll need to use Samsung Kies to install it. [Android Community]
HTC One S: T-Mobile has announced software version 2.35.531.10 as an OTA update that will be deployed through the end of the month. The software update is intended to fix connectivity and stability issues, but if you're currently on version 2.35.531.7, the update isn't necessary. [TmoNews]
Motorola RAZR HD: Telstra has released its Jelly Bean update for this handset from Motorola, which is available for OTA installation. [Android Australia]
