LG Optimus G owners on AT&T will be very happy to learn that the carrier just released Android 4.1 Jelly Bean for the Optimus G. The new update will also enable the Isis Mobile Wallet. Isis Mobile Wallet is a free app that works like Google Wallet; it allows you to link your credit card and loyalty cards to use for payment at anywhere Isis Mobile Wallet is accepted. Users will enjoy many of the unique features of Jelly Bean, including Project Butter, Google Now and more.
AT&T has begun rolling out the update and posted the following information on its AT&T Consumer Blog:
"The latest version of Android software, Jelly Bean makes your smartphone easier to use through several enhancements, including changes to the notification display that groups updates from the same application together, and allows you to expand or collapse notifications. Customers will also be able to view the full text of an SMS message and the full photo of a MMS in the notification window. The new Tasks app lets you sync your tasks in Outlook so you always have insight into those important to-do items.
Additionally, event notifications display more of the event description to let you quickly see relevant details without having to open the app. You can even snooze or dismiss an individual event from within the notification. To help customers better manage their data consumption, the Jelly Bean update adds a data usage calculator that allows you to set a limit on your data usage each month. Harnessing the power of the Snapdragon S4 Pro 1.5GHz Quad-Core Processor, Jelly Bean is faster, smoother and more responsive with Android's best performance yet."
LG Optimus G users can update their smartphones by going into the Settings app>General>Software Update> Update now. Your smartphone will begin to download the software update, and once it's downloaded your smartphone will reboot and install the update. The whole process should take a few minutes and you'll be greeted with Jelly Bean goodness once the update is complete.
