Sprint's Samsung Galaxy Note II Is Getting A Minor OTA Update, But Not Until January 6th 2015

Updates are not only for the latest and greatest phones, but they usually are. It's actually quite unusual to see a phone from a few years ago on a US carrier getting an update, but that's what's happening with the Samsung Galaxy Note II on Sprint. Rather, it will happen on January 6th.

Here's what you can expect in the update, version number L900VPUBNK2.

• HD voice icon added


• ORNL enabled


• Google security patches (SSL, Towelroot, and TrustZone)


• Bug fixes

The firmware will still be based on Android 4.4.2, but it will have security patches for a few vulnerabilities including all those SSL issues from earlier this year and the Towelroot exploit.
