Here’s a promising indicator for some users of the Samsung Galaxy S4 as the Android 4.4 update is now being pushed out to more regions in the form of Android 4.4.2 KitKat. A week or so ago we heard the update had reached India, and now it’s reaching further to include some owners of the device in Europe and other parts of Asia.
The rollout of the update for both the Galaxy S4 GT-I9500 and GT-I9505 models now seems to be well and truly underway and it’s reported that Malaysia is another region of Asia where the 4.4.2 update is now being received as an OTA (over-the-air) update, as well as the Phliippines.
In Europe, owners of the Galaxy S4 in Poland also started to receive the update earlier today. According to carrier the update is between 350 and 400 MB in size. If you’re in Europe or another region and haven’t yet received the update this is a very good sign that indicates it will be spreading to more countries and carriers soon.
Remember these updates can take a while to roll out but if you want to check manually you can head to Settings followed by More, then About Device, and finally Software to see if the update is ready.
Earlier today Android 4.4.2 started to arrive for T-Mobile’s version of the Galaxy Note 3 as well, so it’s good to hear that Samsung is finally getting on top of this update. If you’re in Europe or elsewhere, let us know if the update has arrived for your Galaxy S4 yet by dropping us a comment.
