Verizon, Motorola remind us of DROID RAZR HD’s Jelly Bean roll-out with festive package [PIC]

14

Motorola and Verizon did well to inform the world that Android 4.1 Jelly Bean for the DROID RAZR HD and DROID RAZR MAXX HD was available for download. We knew they’d make a big deal out of that considering faster Android updates was a focus of Motorola’s at the official RAZR HD event back in early September.

Well, they’ve gone a step further and seem to be sending a festive package out to everyone to celebrate the fact that Jelly Bean has arrived. We received a package with the following contents:

  • Red and silver tinsel
  • Red and black jelly beans from Jelly Belly
  • A picture note in the form of a text message conversation on a DROID RAZR HD.

It’s subtle, but definitely cool and has us believing that Motorola is taking its promise of timely Android updates as seriously as it can. It would appear that these are only being sent to members of the press so don’t expect to see one on your doorstep.

Regardless, it does well in serving as a friendly reminder that you could be on Jelly Bean right now if you own one of the latest RAZR HD phones by heading to the Settings > About Phone menu on your device. In the meantime we’ll be popping these delicious little candies back and continue to enjoy bringing you more great content as we do every single day!

The "Google Phone" sounded too awesome to pass up, so I bought a G1. The rest is history. And yes, I know my name isn't Wilson.

  1. Cool. Now hurry up and get it to the OG RAZR and RAZR MAXX phones as well. Shouldn’t be THAT hard.

    1. THAT’S funny!

    2. The V3 OG RAZR? I’ve running JB on that bad boy for a while :P

      1. Lol I’d love to see the look on people’s faces if that thing ever received any form of Android.

    3. I would imagine that they will be coming out with it in the next 2 months

  2. meanwhile HTC users get kicked in the taint if they bought rezound, tbird or any of the other pre-Apple licensed phones.

    1. LOL…but its tru so :'(

  3. i wish it was as easy as going to “about phone”. Been trying to force the update all week. Nothing is working.

    1. havent gotten mine yet either. making me mad.

  4. And I’ll remind Motorola how nice it is a nexus device… WHEN I GET MY NEXUS 4.

    Motofail… still pissed.

  5. Too bad MOT didn’t have this “festive” holiday package ready to push out to the Droid X2 and other similar phone in the 1-2 year range that are now practically obsolete. Won’t forget MOT>

  6. they should name the sub-releases of jellybean after Bertie Botts Every Flavour Beans. 4.2 can be Earwax.

  7. when will the OG RAZR finally get its update, Motorola claims that it will but how long do we have to wait?
