LG G Flex to Get New Android 4.4.2 Update Starting December 1st

If you’re rocking an LG G Flex from Sprint, expect a new Android 4.4.2 update to hit your device next week. According to an internal Sprint document obtained by the folks at Android Police, a new LG G Flex Android 4.4.2 update labelled ZV9 will be pushed to users starting next week.

The same document also reveals that we are dealing with a minor update, so don’t expect anything magic to happen to your device after you install the new software. The new Android 4.4.2 update for LG G Flex will add International Voice over WiFi calling, HD Voice enhancements, and Google Security Patches. Even though the latter enhancement could indicate a small upgrade to 4.4.4, it’s not the case for the G Flex.

As usual, we will be dealing with a staged roll out, which means that some users might have to wait longer than others. Starting December 1st, the update will be pushed to 15% of the active Sprint G Flex devices, followed by a second batch December 8th that should complete to up to 35%. By December 9th, the ZV9 update should arrive on 50% of the devices, and it should be ready for all users by December 11th.

In case you won’t receive the system update notification on your smartphone, then it’s also worth performing a manual check. To do so head to Settings > System updates > Update LG Software. We don’t know anything about the size of the update, but it’s recommended to download the update file using a stable WiFi network.
