HTC is preparing to release updated software that will remove Carrier IQ's software from its Android smartphones sold by Sprint. In a statement provided to The Verge, HTC said, "HTC can confirm that we're working with Sprint to provide maintenance releases that will remove Carrier IQ and provide security enhancements and bug fixes beginning in January." Sprint had requested that its device partners make such updates available. Carrier IQ came under fire last year when it was discovered on customer handsets.
