Following the update, users will benefit from support for the Isis mobile payment service, a feature that has been long rumored to be en-route to Verizon’s devices.

“Verizon Wireless is pleased to announce a new software update, 0.7.2.XT926.Verizon.en.US, for your DROID RAZR HD by Motorola. Verizon Wireless and Motorola encourage you to download this update,” the company notes on its support website.

The release notes for the update unveil the fact that an updated Google Security Patch has been included in the new firmware version.

Moreover, Verizon explains that support for Isis Mobile Wallet has been added into the mix as well. Both DROID RAZR HD and DROID RAZR MAXX HD will benefit from the feature.

“Take advantage of Tap to Pay with Isis Mobile Wallet. Isis Mobile Wallet holds virtual versions of most things your existing wallet does-this includes your credit and debit cards. Just tap your phone to pay at any Isis Ready merchant,” the wireless carrier notes.

Verizon hasn’t provided specific info on when the update will be delivered to its users, but they can check to see if it has arrived by heading to Settings > About phone > System updates > Download.
