Android 4.4.2 update rolling out to Nexus devices

Within days of Android 4.4.1 update release, Google has started rolling-out Android 4.4.2 update for Nexus devices earlier today. The update is now available over-the-air and will reach the smartphones and tablets over the next few days.

The Nexus smartphones and tablets, which haven’t received Android 4.4.1 update until now will get updated directly to Android 4.4.2. Others will get a smaller update with just Android 4.4.2 changes.

Google has not revealed a change-log for this update but US telecom operator Sprint has noted that this update comes with the following changes.

• Fix for clearing the VM Indicator
• Fix for delivery of the VM Indicator
