Two large U.S. wireless carriers plan to launch Motorola Inc. smart phones based on Google Inc.’s Android operating system before the end of the year, according to people familiar with the matter.

The Google-powered phones, which will be carried by Verizon Wireless and T-Mobile USA Inc., are the result of Motorola Co-Chief Executive Sanjay Jha’s efforts in recent months to overhaul the company’s struggling handset division. Motorola is betting heavily on Android to regain traction in the cellphone market.
