Google continues to release Android 4.4.2 update on a variety of devices. This time, receiving units include the HTC One, Samsung Galaxy S4, Galaxy Note 3 and Galaxy S3. Sprint and Verizon have also started rolling out the update specifically for their Samsung Galaxy S3 subscribers. HTC One M7 Android 4.4.2 update for Verizon and Sprint also offers the latest Sense 6.0. Some users may get access to the update sooner or later than other as the roll out happens in stages just like other previous Google releases. Joining Verizon and Sprint, US Cellular has also released the Samsung Galaxy S3 Android 4.4.2 update.
People will not find as much difference between the design of Sense 6 and Sense 5 although the latest edition features lighter and brighter colors. Additionally, the Sense 6 in the KitKat update for HTC One comes with an improved edition of BlinkFeed. This allows users to enhance their social media experience. People can track social media sites easier. They can also tailor their feeds according to the site they want. Some available sites include Facebook, Foursquare, Google+ and Instagram.
Sense 6.0 can be considered as HTC's way of promoting its Motion Launch application. People can also expect a new Camera Gallery and better TV app. Gossip Herald reported that Verizon has released the Android 4.4.2 KitKat HTC One M7 update last June 3. Sprint will carry out the update in stages. Subscribers from both networks may receive the firmware sooner or later.
Android Geeks, on other hand, reported about US Cellular launching the update for Samsung Galaxy S3. The new firmware promises better camera app, phone dialer and Google+ Hangouts. Sprint and US Cellular remain the only two networks to provide an update for the device. Other networks have yet to follow. Subscribers can check with their providers for schedule.
Google will be holding its I/O conference later this month to announce new products possibly including the Android 4.5 Lollipop.
