In the run-up to the official launch of Android Lollipop, Google has released the final update to v4.4.4 KitKat. According to the official statement from the Korean electronics giant, the latest rollout is available on the Galaxy Note 3 and the S5. Samsung further revealed that the S4 and the S4 LTE are currently in the final stages of testing and development.
Each of the devices will be upgrade-worthy by early next month. The latest Android upgrade is likely to offer greater security, find an end to bug problems and make changes to Samsung’s home apps.
The updates are not major when compared to Android Lollipop, but a huge step since the last-gen platforms. Once the process is complete, current generation S4 and S4 LTE users will get a notification on their smartphone informing them about the availability of the upgrade.
Users simply need to open their notification area and commence downloading. However, if the system auto download is unavailable, you can manually commence downloading. We recommend you upgrade the OS via Wi-Fi and an optimally charged battery for the best results.
Follow every standard protocol and do not turn off your device once the process commences. Your device can lose functionality if the upgrade is incomplete or has been disturbed mid-way. Samsung has recently launched the official Android v4.4.4 upgrade on the Note 10.1 T-Mobile LTE variant and users who have upgraded their device yet, should do so at the earliest.
Samsung is now planning to upgrade all their top-end smartphones and other gadgets running on the Android KitKat platform to the upcoming Android Lollipop, which is currently available on Google’s Nexus range in the beta form.
Samsung is yet to get this upgrade for its devices while experts believe that every major device is likely to get an upgrade before spring 2015. The Samsung Galaxy Nope 10.1 2014 will be the first device to gain access to Android v5.0 Lollipop, indicating that the smaller gadgets – as the Galaxy S4 – will take quite a bit longer.
Samsung is yet to add an official changelog for the upgrades, but we are sure that the recent addition sports a few bug-fixes that were pending. Samsung delivers the Android KitKat update OTR or Over-the-Air and hence it is being carried out in phases.
If you are yet to receive notification about the upgrade, there is no reason to panic as you will get the update eventually. Samsung strives to provide maximum satisfaction to their clients at all times and considering the present market scenario, they are close to being the first electronics manufacturer to offer Android v5.0 Lollipop on their products, save for the few who are tied directly to Google.
