AT&T LG G Pad X 10.1 gets updated

Although most carriers and device makers have been focusing on smartphones and phablets lately, tablets are not dead yet. However, there are not many Android 6.0 Marshmallow-powered slates around and updating some older models to the latest Android version seems to take more than it should. LG G Pad X 10.1 on AT&T is such a tablet and, while the latest update for it brings a few noticeable changes, it is not based on Android M.

AT&T has the model V930 of the G Pad X 10.1 in its portfolio and they announced the update earlier this week. The highlights mentioned by the official support page are compatibility with NumberSync, including the Phone application, as well as the usual security updates. This makes the G Pad X 10.1 the first Android-driven tablet to get support for AT&T's service that launched back in October 2015. NumberSync allows multiple devices connected to AT&T's network to use a single number.

The software version of the update is V93011l, uses kernel 3.4.0 and carries the LMY47V build number. Baseband version is MPSS.DI.2.0.c2-00105-M8974AAAAANAZM-1, while the file size is 309 MB. The new firmware is based on Android 5.1.1 Lollipop. As usual, delivery is done via OTA, but those in a hurry can check manually via Settings>About tablet>Update Center>Software update>Update Now.
