Samsung Galaxy S4 users, meanwhile, can – so because they belong to the “brave” – ??since a few days, Android 4.4.2 play on your Galaxy S4. This is a leaked test firmware that was provided by SamMobile online. Although apparently not it is the “final test firmware”, but also that update with the mystical name “I9505XXUFNA1″ already running so stable that is expected to prompt release of the actual firmware.

Thus

likely the Samsung Galaxy S4 – model number GT-I9505 – will be honored with the first flagship with the current version of the mobile operating system from Google. But: In too great changes to Galaxy S4 disciples must not adjust. This can be seen, among other things on the many screenshots that SamMobile has also provided online. So the Samsung keypad has been changed slightly – and some optical adjustments were also made in comparison to Android 4.3

.

steps as the test firmware can be installed are described in detail by colleagues. Of course, it is pointed out that the download is done at your own risk. And: It is not an official release from Samsung

. Google’s latest firmware for mobile devices

The list of devices that definitely should get an update to Android 4.4 KitKat, is getting longer. That should, of course, delighted all those users that the devices mentioned – keep commonplace in hands – including the Sony Xperia Z, LG G2 or the HTC one. But to this day, a manufacturer has not yet ruled specifically to the update policy in regard to Android 4.4: Samsung

a few weeks ago was also “leaked” a list that lists the Android 4.4 update also the Samsung Galaxy S3 and Note 2 in terms. But currently, still create the Android 4.3 update for some outstanding news.

It is meanwhile hard to believe that Samsung at least not in a timely manner “equipped” with its current flagship Android 4.4, because: The competition has obviously affected. HTC has announced about, even the HTC One Mini and Max “donate” the Android 4.4 update for the. These days, however, once rolled on the HTC One Mini Android 4.3.

While many smartphone owners wait so because on Android 4.4, has already been rolled out on the LG Nexus 5 Android 4.4.2: First of all the camera settings have been improved. ukonio.de is satisfied with the changes, the auto-focus as has been revised.

Although the dates of the various manufacturers such as Sony, HTC, Motorola or LG for Android 4.4 rollout vary a little, but the ongoing first quarter of 2014 may be the owner of all the devices mentioned paint red on the calendar. Only Galaxy S3 and Note 2 owners are perhaps whether their current update experience a little hesitant.

The cards on the table

Many IT companies have with respect to the Android 4.4 update can already look at the cards, including LG Electronics. The South Koreans announced the update for the LG G2. In addition, the rollout for the Samsung Galaxy S4 and HTC One Google Play Edition was launched in the United States. Also for the LG Nexus 4 of the rollout of Android after some “minor” delays 4.4 now started.

Motorola and Samsung are planning for their current flagships obviously a timely rollout. This also applies to the HTC Sense user interface, including One. Via Tweet with LG announced that the LG G2 in this country end of the “first quarter 2014″ will receive the update to Android 4.4. A user had sent a request to the South Korean IT companies.

The LG Nexus 5, in early November released by Google and tested by ukonio.de already in detail, already came along with Android 4.4 KitKat on the market. “Resemble” In many ways, the Nexus is 5 and G2, at least in terms of the “power under the hood” Thus says the same Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 processor was installed. There are differences but at the camera – the LG G2 comes with 13 megapixels of the way, the Nexus 5 “only” 8 However, the same image stabilizer is installed. And: The display diagonal of the Nexus 5 is 5 inches, the LG G2 of 5.2 inches. However, “fill” both touch screens the facade of the respective devices very good.

LG G2: Android 4.4 comes

One thing we find strange: Not for the first time, it is observed that many users are waiting for an official statement of an IT giants, but often enough a simple request via Twitter or Facebook, to bring light into the darkness. Even Samsung had last reacts initially with respect to the exposed Android 4.3 update for the Galaxy S3 to user request, which was published before “actual” opinion and be attacked by the press.

Android 4.4 KitKat: game, voltage and chocolate

?

LG is thus the Nexus 5 clearly inferior in terms of the Android 4.4. Wherein LG is certainly the flagship G2 yet adapts its own user interface, while the LG Nexus 5 or less came with stock Android the way. But whether it is in fact still a “pure Android” pleasure whether the many Google features above can of course be argued. One thing can be said to Android 4.4 in any case: The system is stable on the Nexus 5. The very large optical jumps to Android 4.3 Jelly Bean, however, did not materialize. , It is said, however, KitKat is resource-saving than Jelly Bean.

While the LG Nexus 5 is thus the beginning of November the launch of Android has given KitKat 4.4, the LG G2 is apparently something of a latecomer: HTC had announced that the One end of January is considered with the new firmware, Huawei also wants release early next year the update to Ascend P6 users.

“. G2 Android 4.4″

That user deweril who taught at LG via Twitter the inquiry, is so because in his reply also little euphoric: “Oops, bisl late. ., But better than nothing “, but owners of the HTC One and Samsung Galaxy S4 can look forward – so because they Google Play Edition have: How the IT giant from Mountain View via Google+ announced that the rollout of Android 4.4 for those Samsung and HTC flagship, including “stock Android” started.

To date, however, the Google Play Editions of One and Galaxy S4 are only available in the USA. All the same, HTC had already announced that even the “regular” one, together with the Sense UI early next year to obtain the fix. It is assumed that also rolls out Samsung for the Galaxy S4 in January KitKat – this is confirmed but not yet officially
