Good news for HTC One Max owners on Verizon Wireless. It looks like HTC has finally received technical certification for Android 4.4.2 KitKat on the HTC One Max for Verizon. HTC’s executive director of product management revealed the news just a few moments ago via Twitter, and mentions that the over-the-air update is scheduled to hit devices this Monday, April 7th.
While the phone gets the usual KitKat goodies, it should be noted that the One Max will remain on Sense 5.5 (for now). Other devices still in waiting for their KitKat updates (but have already passed certification) include the HTC Droid DNA on Verizon, and the HTC Desire 601 on Virgin Mobile.
Thanks, Brian!
Now if Verizon will only bring it to the LG G2
And the friggin Verizon S4
Finally got the update… Kind of laggy tho
I have the HTC one max and mine runs even faster now. Great job! TEAM ANDROID!
Good luck , verizon is in no hurry to do it. The worst cell phone provider in the world at updating their phones. Constantly sending me e-mails to buy a new phone so I can lose my unlimited data and save them from having to actually provide a bug free g2. I will not renew my contract with verizon.
Chris : congrats on your 3 year anniversary here at Phandroid.
Thanks! ^_^
two words for you: Brown Nose
And…….how about that 4.4.3 for Nexus 5? :-)
Right?!
nice!
except I am rooted and support for this device is not that great….I need root to be available ASAP! also, sorry but kitkat from what i’ve read…kind of buggy. I think i am going to pass on this one.
It’s not as bad as people make it seem.
This makes my Verizon Note 3 sad…
When will the lg pro2 be coming to att?
Wow its good
Windows 8.1 Update 1 leaked by Microsoft
I have HTC Droid DNA which is the best phone I have ever
had with features like qi enabled compatible with wireless charger . Well it’s
good to know that the update is available on HTC One Max. But still I am
waiting for this update on my HTC Droid DNA.
Not touching this thing on my DNA when it comes out. Phone is 100% stable and works perfectly now, unlike kitkat. Also, the photo gallery lockscreen widget has been taken away in Kitkat which is one of the coolest things about this phone.
got the update and my HTC one MAX crashed smh thinking about going back to IPHONE i am so pissed right now damn Verizon
My phone took the update Just fine and I have the HTC one max. You have something In your phone that caused that. It wasn’t the updates fault.
can anyone confirm if pda.net (foxfi) is supported with the new update. Im not going to install it if it is.
If you like being able to move files to your External SD Card, DO NOT INSTALL KITKAT!!!! I can view and copy the files that are already on the SD Card, but I can NO LONGER move files to the SD Card. #AndroidKitKatSucks
