Samsung Galaxy S4 KitKat Update Android 4.4.2 OTA for AT&T in USA

Samsung Galaxy S4 KitKat Update Android 4.4.2 OTA for AT&T in USA


It’s a good day for owners of the AT&T Samsung Galaxy S4 because the device is ready to receive an OTA update to Android 4.4.2 KitKat, which prepares it for the long-anticipated Android L release. There’s also supposed to be one more update (Android 4.4.4), but that’s not likely to happen anytime soon considering Android L is very close to its release, and that’s Google’s priority right now. The news was very well received among Samsung Galaxy S4 AT&T users because the Android 4.4.2 KitKat update brings a lot of bug fixes, performance enhancements and battery improvements, resolving many issues from the previous iteration of the OS.
AT&T rolls out Android 4.4.2 KitKat update for Galaxy S4
If you own an AT&T carrier version of the Samsung Galaxy S4, then you should have been prompted to update by now, but if you haven’t, you can check for any available software update in Settings -> About -> Check for Software Updates. Always make sure you’re connected to a Wi-Fi network before you update, and always make sure you have plenty of internal memory before you update your operating system, because downloading the update can eat up your whole monthly data plan, and it can also fill your storage with lots of files. The update is between 121MB and 927MB; the difference comes from the fact that users running Android 4.4 will have to install the first 4.4.2 firmware along with this update.
We’re curious to see if the Samsung Galaxy S4 will update to Android L after it’s released. Currently, we know that Nexus devices are the first ones to get the update, followed by either HTC or Samsung devices.
