Good news for owners of the LG G Stylo smartphone on T-Mobile as the company has started to roll out the Android Marshmallow update to the handset.
The Android Marshmallow update for the G Stylo comes with software version H63120b and it has been released as an over the air update for the handset.
New Features and Improvements
The Android Marshmallow update brings a range of new features and improvements to the LG G Stylo. One of the most notable additions is the Doze mode, which helps to extend battery life by putting the device into a deep sleep state when it is not being used. This can significantly improve the standby time of your device.
Another important feature is the new app permissions model, which gives users more control over the permissions that apps request. Instead of granting all permissions at once when installing an app, users can now choose to grant or deny individual permissions as needed. This enhances both security and privacy.
Additionally, the update includes Google Now on Tap, a feature that provides contextual information and suggestions based on the content currently displayed on your screen. For example, if you are reading an article about a movie, Google Now on Tap can provide information about the cast, reviews, and even showtimes.
How to Update Your LG G Stylo
The update should be available for your device as of now as an over the air update. To check if the update is available for your handset, follow these steps:
1. Go to Settings.
2. Navigate to General.
3. Select About phone.
4. Go to Update center.
5. Tap on System update.
6. Select Check for update.
If the update is available, you will be prompted to download and install it. Make sure your device is connected to Wi-Fi and has sufficient battery life before starting the update process.
It’s also a good idea to back up your data before updating, just in case something goes wrong during the installation. You can use LG’s built-in backup feature or a third-party app to back up your contacts, photos, and other important data.
