LG Spectrum ICS 4.0.4 Update (Build VS920ZV7) Rolling Out To Devices Soon
Ah, the poor LG Spectrum. Soon after it was released with mediocre Gingerbread-based software the Samsung Galaxy S III showed up to rain on LG's parade. Well, the Spectrum is getting a big update to Android 4.0.4 that should make owners much happier. Watch out, though. It clocks in at a whopping 384MB.
Many of the new features will be familiar to users of ICS on other devices, but some of it is part of LG's Android skin. Features include:
- Customizable lock screen shortcuts
- Customizable home screen launch bar
- ICS system theme
- ICS-style app drawer with widgets
- ICS multitasking
- ICS-style notifications
- Quick settings in the notification panel
- New power saving functionality
- ICS data usage monitor
- Verizon Remote Diagnostic Tool (if you're into that sort of thing)
Yes, Jelly Bean has been out for months, but this was not a terribly well-received phone. Usually only the top-tier devices get the best update love. Ice Cream Sandwich is at least modern software, and it's a huge leap ahead when compared to Gingerbread really, the old LG UI was incredibly ugly. The update should hit devices in the coming week or so. Check the Verizon update docs for more details.
