Check Android version number To check what version of Android your phone is running: 1. Go to Settings > About phone > Android version. 2. The number displayed is your phone's Android version. Install Android software updates Your phone notifies you if an Android software update is available. To manually check for updates, go to Settings > System > Advanced > System updates. If an upgrade is available, follow the onscreen instructions to install it. Tips: · To save data charges, use a WiFi connection to download software updates. · For safety reasons, your phone may download security updates (not OS upgrades) automatically over your mobile network if Wi-Fi is not available within a few days after you receive a notification that a security update is available. In this case, data charges may apply depending on the carrier. You can't downgrade to a previous software version after installing an update. Check if and when updates are available Types of updates: · Security updates contain fixes and improvements from Google for your current version of the Android operating system. Motorola provides these updates to most phones on a regular basis. · Android OS updates are new versions of the Android operating system. Motorola provides OS updates from Google to eligible phones as soon as possible. To see if an OS update will be available for your phone, or if your phone is still eligible for security updates, see the website for your country. Our support agents get their Android update information from here too. If the website doesn't have a update release date for your phone, then we don't know the release date yet. For Android OS updates, with several phone models, regions, and distribution channels we may have hundreds of software versions to test before releasing an update to your phone. Because dependencies on carriers and other key partners for certifications, independent testing, and requests for changes take more time, all phone owners don't receive updates at the same time, even in the same region.
