Motorola has officially announced that Android 4.1 Jelly Bean is rolling out to DROID RAZR HD by Motorola and DROID RAZR MAXX HD. The new upgrade offers many new features that personalize your phone to deliver an incredibly smooth experience. The current upgrade will be delivered to users on a rolling basis with the availability to manually update your device coming soon.

 

If you are wondering what enhancements you can expect. Check out the list below:

 

  • Google Now - Shouldn't your phone be able to anticipate what you'll need throughout your day? With Google Now, you get answers before you even have to ask. Real-time notifications let you know whether you should pack an umbrella for later in the day or if you need to grab the train to avoid the accident that's backing up I-495. Plus, you'll receive the score of your favorite team's game from last night. Though Google Now can't make your morning coffee, it will provide you the convenience you want to keep you one step ahead.

  • Voice Search - Want a voice-search experience that doesn't only work in TV ads? Google Voice Search on AndroidTM 4.1 lets you speak your questions directly into your phone. Run a quick search that will give you everything from great Italian restaurants on the Lower East Side to the next train leaving from Clark and Lake. And if you want to test Google Voice Search's foreign language skills, go ahead. It currently supports 34 languages from around the globe.

  • Richer Notifications - Its always good to see a missed call or new email notification, but wouldn't you rather just take action? With Android 4.1, now you can. You just received a meeting reminder and know your call is running long. No problem, you can tap once to email the team that you'll be there in a few minutes. Missed calls can be returned with a single tap, all right from the notification shade.

If your read our earlier article, we have told you that Samsung has been pushing Android 4.1.1 to the Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 and Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 here in America.


The update's rolling out now OTA to Wi-Fi only devices with model# GT-N8013, but it should also be available via Samsung Kies. Simply go to Settings > About device > Software update or just hook up to your PC through USB to see if it's available on your end. After applying the update your tablet will be on software version UEUCMA3.


Seems like Samsung is working pretty hard to get everyone updates as soon as they can, so let's hope the same treatment will come to many more devices soon, now that's what we called good customer experience.

Google has started pushing the 4.2.2 update to Nexus devices (specifically the Nexus 4, Nexus 7, Nexus 10, and Galaxy Nexus).


There's not much word regarding what the update (build JDQ39) includes just yet, but readers may remember that Google promised a Bluetooth A2DP audio streaming fix in the "next release" of 4.2 after 4.2.1.   The update comes in at around 50 MB on the Nexus 10 but it really depending on which device you have.


So if you haven't received the notification yet, perhaps it's time to go to Settings > About and check for new updates.  If you haven't got it yet, you should in the coming days. If you did and notice any improvements, let us know in the comments below.

Galaxy Ace devices are surely some of the earliest to receive updates from Android. Yesterday, the 4.1.2 Jelly Bean was rolled out to the delight of Galaxy Ace 2 users. Also, prior to this, a software update was leaked for the Ace 2, so a few have chanced upon the new features of their phone even before the platform was officially rolled out.


The update was sent OTA to Ace 2 users but you may also download and install, using the links found online. You can also push the update to your phone from your desktop PC software. Note however that the update will not happen simultaneously for everybody around the world. Some will get it earlier than others.


The latest Android Jelly Bean will help you get more value for your Galaxy Ace 2 and many will really find the modifications and the Google Now more useful.

Facebook has been under intense pressure to take over the phones of the users. This is evidenced by Chat Heads, Facebook Home, Messenger Apps and official updates. It has even gone further and started offering full voice calls for free to the Messenger users in the United States. This same feature was last month offered to Canadians. The service requires that Facebook messenger should be naturally installed. If you want to initiate call, you simply have to head in to the list of contacts, open a message, and then hit "I" which is at the top right corner. Once you have done this, you will see "Free Call" option in the list.


The user can receive call for free if the "Free Call" is white. If it is gray, that is an indication that your friend cannot receive calls. This new feature which does not require update of applications should at the present be rolling out to the users.

Gmail's desktop inbox just went through some pretty significant UI changes, and we've just been waiting for Google to update its mobile apps with many of the same elements. The Android app, which Android Police reports is beginning its rollout today, reflects the new multiple-tabbed interface we've had the opportunity to play with for the last week -- it offers the same five tabs that are found on the desktop version, in addition to a new slide-out navigation interface.


We're still waiting to get official word from Google about the update, but we'll let you know as soon as we have it. In the meantime, if you feel daring enough to try the new APK, head below to the source link to find a selection of available mirrors.
