The long-awaited update to Ice Cream Sandwich often brings a few teething troubles with it, and such is the case with T-Mobile's HTC Sensation 4G. After the scheduled Android 4.0 update yesterday, some users found that their HSPA+ ("4G") data wasn't working, much to their display.

Users who wish to share their connection will have to fork over $14.95 a month for the official tethering plan, allowing them to "officially" use the WiFi hotspot or USB data tether.
