Verizon Wireless is currently in the process of rolling out the official Android 4.4.4 KitKat Update for the LG G2 smartphone. This new update will finally prepare your device for the future Advance Calling 1.0 features via VoLTE technology. Make sure to update your phone if you want to get the best KitKat experience to date.
The Verizon LG G2 will now be bumped to Android 4.4.4 KitKat, but there aren’t any other major changes besides the VoLTE support. The update consists mostly of fixes such as: Puerto Rico roaming connectivity tweaks added, autocorrect now works when the question mark symbol is selected, you can remove all cancelled meeting from the calendar, Mobile HotSpot UI prompt to connect is now fixed, assisted dialing fixed for international numbers, and some other small fixes.
Android 4.4.4 KitKat Update for Verizon LG G2 has the software version set to VS98026A and it is currently rolling out in phases. This means that not all Verizon G2 devices will get the firmware update at the same time, but you shouldn’t worry as all phones will 100% receive it by the end of this month. Also, you should know that this update will probably be the final KitKat build released for this G2 model, as Google is planning to launch Android L 5.0 by the end of this fall.
When your LG G2 Verizon notification pull-down menu is displaying the new Android 4.4.4 OTA Update notification you should simply open it, read the changelog and then hit the Download button. After that your smartphone should take care of the rest of the process and install Android 4.4.4 firmware files automatically.
Note that not all devices will display the update notification, which is why you should go to the Software Updates menu and use the ‘manual search’ function yourself. If there are any new KitKat firmware files available for download, then you should simply confirm download and then wait until your phone completes the process. Use the field below and tell us how’s your Verizon LG G2 working with the new OS build and if you’ve spotted any other new features that weren’t listed in thechangelog.

Wrong. This latest update IS NOT 4.4.4.
ReplyDeleteVS98026A is running 4.4.2. This latest update seemed like bug fixes with the 25B.
