New LG G3 Android 4.4.2 Update to Be Pushed to Sprint Users This Monday

According to a leaked Sprint document a new LG G3 Android 4.4.2 update will be pushed to user starting Monday, December 1st. Apparently, we are talking about a minor software update, but, even so, you would definitely want your device to run the latest available firmware.

The said document leaked online courtesy of Android Police and reveals that the new Android 4.4.2 update for Sprint LG G3 is labelled ZV26. It also shows that, as usual, the update will be rolled out in phases with only 15% of the active Sprint G3 units getting it December 1st. A second batch will be rolled out a week later, covering 35% of the devices, and by December 9 50% of Sprint’s G3 terminals should receive the update. Over the next couple of days the percent will rise to 75% and 100%, respectively.

Even though the document suggests that the new firmware brings Google Security Patches which are often related to Android 4.4.4, it’s definitely not the case here. The new LG G3 Android 4.4.2 update will also arrive with a Qualcomm Security Patch, International Voice over WiFi support, improved unlock algorithm when phone is in the pocket, and enhancements to LG Home, compass application, and the auxiliary cable recognition. It also adds mobilize device content caching.

Once your terminal becomes eligible to receive the new firmware, you should be notified that a system update is pending. If you aren’t able to see the system update notification, it’s also worth checking for the update manually under Menu > Settings > System Updates > Update LG Software.
