Verizon Releases Android 5.1.1 For Note Pro 12.2 And Galaxy Tab 4 8.0

A couple of Samsung devices are receiving a new software update today from Verizon, it will bump up both devices to Android 5.1.1, which is the most recent version of the operation system that’s available to the public. The carrier today released Android 5.1.1 Lollipop for Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 and Galaxy Tab 4 8.0, it has released the update at a time when Marshmallow is just around the corner.

For those who are unaware, Marshmallow is the moniker for the next major update from Google. Android 6.0 was announced earlier this year and Google is expected to release it in the coming weeks. We are likely to get a confirmed release date, at least for Nexus handsets, at Google’s event later this month.

Galaxy Tab 4 8.0 is receiving Android 5.1.1 Lollipop software version LMY47X.T337VVRU3BOH2 whereas the Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 will receive software version P905VVRUBOH1 from Verizon.

Aside from the latest version of Lollipop the Galaxy Tab 4 8.0 gets an improved version of Samsung Knox security suite, as well as Reactivation Lock which prompts user to log into Samsung account so that device protection can be enabled.

Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 also gets Reactivation Lock aside from Lollipop, it even gets a new Kids Mode, Download Booster and the improved version of the Knox security suite.
