Verizon Wireless today announced that it is rolling out the Android 4.1 Jelly Bean update to the Samsung Galaxy Nexus.
The Galaxy Nexus will be the first Verizon smartphone to get the upgrade to Jelly Bean, the carrier said.
Verizon said the update will be “pushed out in phases” starting today, but only when a user is connected to Wi-Fi. Galaxy Nexus owners can check the software availability on their device by going to the settings tab, then looking under “About Phone” to find the system updates option. If Jelly Bean is available, a notification will pop up and the download can begin.
Google unveiled its next-generation Android OS in June, and promised upgrades for the Galaxy Nexus, Nexus S, and Motorola Xoom.
