HTC started rolling out the Android 4.4.2 KitKat update in parts of Europe, including Nordic region last week. Now HTC has started rolling out the KitKat update in India. Back in November HTC promised that it would roll out the Android 4.4 Kitkat update for the HTC One users in EMEA countries (Europe, Middle East, and Africa) starting from January-end. Even though Asia was not in the roll out list, it has arrived in India even before some European countries.
The new software update (v4.20.707.7) for the HTC One brings
- Android 4.4.2 update
- Cloud print service
- Security enhancements
- New Bluetooth profiles to support more media interactions
- Even better multi-tasking.
- Open & save files on Google Drive + additional 25GB of storage.
- Better disk encryption.
- Improved memory management
HTC has finally decided to remove Adobe Flash support in the stock HTC web browser, since it has switched to Google’s Chromium engine, which was mentioned in the changelog for Europe.
The Android 4.4.2 for the HTC One is available as a OTA update in India, which is 330.06MB. Other Asian countries have also started getting the KitKat update for the single SIM version. It is not clear when the HTC One Dual SIM would get the KitKat update in India.
