Sprint begins roll out of Android 5.0 to LG G3

Almost a week ago AT&T began pushing out the OTA update for the LG G3 that moved the device to Android 5.0 Lollipop. It is usually safe to assume that once one carrier starts, the rest will soon follow. The real questions are who will be next and when will it start. Today Sprint is stepping up to the plate and starting their roll out of the coveted sweet treat for their LG G3 toting customers. Sprint outlines the update benefits below:

Update benefits include:
•Material Design for fluid animation, multicolored themes and 3D views
•More efficient battery use
•Android™ TV support
•Notifications on the lock screen and customizable options with prioritized notifications for events, reminders, messages and calls
•Updated Lock Screen features allow users to quickly access notifications and active apps
•Enhanced low vision and color blind capabilities for added Accessibility
•Integrated location menu enables users to easily activate GPS, Wi-Fi and mobile networks, while simultaneously checking the battery usage of apps running location service capabilities
•Enhanced Messaging with Google Hangouts™ support for SMS and MMS and a larger assortment of updated Emoji icons
•Upgraded Google Mobile Service™ apps automatically back up photos and video and can open, view, rename and share Google Docs and files

If you are a LG G3 owner on the Sprint‘s network you should check and see if your update is available by heading into the Settings > System Updates > Update LG software > Check now. As always, be sure you have a solid Wi-Fi connection, well over 50% battery life and some time to kill while it downloads and installs.
