But as it is to the “compact” or appointed “big” mobile companion? No concrete evidence there is to date about the Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini – but HTC now brings light into the dark
.
The rollout of Android 4.4.2 for the HTC one is – even if not everywhere – already started. In the course of a lively question-and-answer games at reddit.com be expressed HTC USA now to schedule.

According to the announcement from HTC in the past year, after which the One X One and X + is no longer taken into account for future updates (currently is still Android 4.2.2 the tone), the storm of protest was of course inevitable. However, since just the owner of about two years old “flagship” in the future are likely to purchase a new high-end device, so it is necessary to bind HTC customers. An Android 4.4.2 Update is here certainly good in-house advertising. Even the Samsung Galaxy S4 or Sony Xperia Z1 will shortly successor …
After the rollout launch of Android 4.4.2 for the Samsung Galaxy Note already complete 3, now seems to come so slowly but surely with respect to the HTC one movement into play: xda-developers.com reported from the start of rollout for the HTC one in Europe.
Thus
“stings” the HTC one indeed appeared from its competitors – that is the Samsung Galaxy S4, LG G2, Huawei Ascend P6 or Sony Xperia Z1. But even those mobile companion should receive the update to the latest Google Android 4.4.2 firmware shortly.
So now is the HTC one will receive the update in other European countries – with one caveat: First free devices come without network operator branding to the course. This is quite often the case – but in the end, about the Android 4.3 rollout for the Galaxy S3 were temporarily only “branded” devices to the series. In addition to Android 4.4.2 launched the rollout of the One Sense is also in version 5.5 of the party – the UI gets so also a new paint
. Android: rapid updates in the future
?
Last circulated the rumor that Google continues the manufacturer, but please only nice to bring devices to market that support a aktuellle Android version. The message was picked up by many IT sides, but one must here be borne in mind: Even if some even middle-class ships to launch with Android 4.3 or soon to be equipped with Android 4.4, this does not mean at all that even further prompt updates on be made the mobile companions.
Regardless of whether S4 Galaxy, Galaxy S3, LG G2, Huawei Ascend P6 or Sony Xperia Z: Always the user interfaces to be adapted – and this “devouring” time. One reason why stock Android devices such as the Nexus 5 are always at the forefront of the Android doing music.
Android 4.4.2 firmware for the HTC One, meanwhile, can easily OTA (“over the air”) are based, the file has a size of about 300 MB.
on board would thus be the 2012-phablet Galaxy Note 2, the Galaxy S3, the Tablet Tab 3, “Outdoor Smartphone” Galaxy S4 Active, the XL Device Galaxy Mega, the “camera-phone” Galaxy S4 Zoom which published last year Galaxy Note 8.0 and the compact Galaxy S3 Mini. Not mentioned is the Galaxy S4 Mini – but it is very likely, especially if this sequence is read, which can also expect the compact S4 with the update
. Android 4.4 for the LG G2 and Sony Xperia Z
Apparently
get the LG G2 and the Sony Xperia Z soon the update to Android 4.4.2 KitKat: How the Polish mobile operator Play announced on his blog in March to both the LG G2 and the Sony Xperia Z the update on get KitKat.
Thus
would actually Android 4.3 “skipped” on the LG G2 – currently take users still with Android 4.2 to be content. That should be the G2 disciples shortly snuff. On the Sony Xperia Z, meanwhile, runs Android 4.3, since December. Thus would quite quickly the update succeed the current Google firmware. This circumstance would also like to put up with.
Samsung Galaxy Note 3: First!
But forefront away marches Samsung Galaxy Note 3rd At least for the phablet together with Vodafone or Telecom Branding the rollout of Android 4.4.2 is already started.
was recently rolled out Android 4.4.2 KitKat on the LG Nexus 5. Here’s a little addendum: Even with the update to 4.4.2 the autofocus problems of LG Nexus were 5 Camera not completely solved. Unfortunately “impress” sometimes still snapshots by blurring.
Only after the third, fourth picture the camera focuses properly. But again, the problem is not on – can actually also in rapid succession with the Nexus 5 many images are made. Are these sharp, there is no reason to complain. Thus there is hope for another patch.
Android 4.4.2 Übersichdt: LG has spoken outLG Electronics spoken out – via Twitter, the question of a user, whether because even the LG Optimus G Pro the update to Android 4.4 get answered positively. With the update is so because expected in the second quarter. The colleagues of gsmarena.com expect a update in June.
In addition, LG indicates that the flagship LG G2 in March to receive the update to Android 4.4. More mobile companion the South Koreans get the same update to Android 4.4 – Android 4.3, the last “stage” of Jelly Bean is skipped on some devices
.
LG G2: Android 4.4 comes
addition to the LG Optimus G Pro getting the LG Optimus F3, F6 LG Optimus, LG G Pad 8.3, LG G Pro Lite, LG Optimus Q7, LG Optimus L9 II, LG Optimus Vu II (so, that’s it – phew ) the latest firmware from Google uploaded. Here, too, is expected to roll out in the second quarter. It is unclear, meanwhile, still, if Samsung and the Galaxy S3 and Galaxy Note 2 “fitted” next to the Galaxy S4 and the Galaxy Note 3 to the Android 4.4 update. Anzu Nehmen is durchaus, dass the “anderen” Südkoreaner auch their 2012er-Flaggschiffe with Android 4.4 versehen -. Doch bestätigt the Rollout is offiziell for the Galaxy S3 and Galaxy Note two bis zum heutigen days not
For HTC One meantime, the rollout in Eastern Europe has already started – but still rising in this country no white smoke. An open question is whether also the HTC One Mini and the HTC phablet Max One with Android 4.4.2 can expect. To assume so, confirms no. The same game is also valid for the Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini.
The Advantage: Stock Android devicesaddition to the LG Nexus 4 and the LG Nexus 5 have already received the Motorola Moto G and the Moto X update to Android 4.4.2. The Moto X will appear soon in this country, while has lowered the price of the Motorola smartphone by around U.S. $ 100 in the U.S. Google.

Sony updates its flagship off soon with Android 4.4.2, in addition to the Xperia Z1 also receives the Xperia Z the update. The new Xperia Z1 Compact, which was in contrast to the HTC One Mini and Galaxy S4 Mini technically not “slimmed down” – should also get the “pleasure” of KitKat. Whether meanwhile, promptly obtain the One Mini and Galaxy S4 Mini update, also there are no further instructions.
Android 4.4.2 rollout: Who was the first twitchesIn France, meanwhile, is – contrary to some “hasty” messages – Android 4.4.2 KitKat for the HTC One also not yet rolled out. Since it fits well into the picture that Android 4.4.2 should be apparently rolled on Samsung Galaxy S3 and Galaxy Note 2. An official confirmation from Samsung is still pending forever as we report below. But apparently it could be “what type” in March. This is surprising, since that Android 4.2.2 was skipped for the Galaxy S3 and Note 2 and Android 4.3 was a long time coming -. Before a stable firmware was delivered in the second roll-start
No major manufacturer is in regard to the current Google firmware is nakedness-started the rollout, meanwhile, has to date only on the stock Android devices such as the LG Nexus 5, Motorola Moto G or Google Play Editions of Samsung Galaxy S4 or HTC one, but have so far only available in the USA. Also the Sony Xperia Z, Z1 or the Huawei Ascend P6 should receive the update. The LG G2, which is known to be more than “soul mates” with the LG Nexus 5 also receives the update.
some uncertainty meanwhile nor in terms of the Samsung Galaxy S3 Mini and the Galaxy S4 Mini. Officially, the South Korean IT giant has not yet been made known whether the “small” mobile companion also receive the update to Android 4.4 KitKat. Owner of the Galaxy S4 Minis might have to worry less. Theoretically Android 4.4 would run on many other mobile companions, that version is still resource-saving than even Android 4.3 Jelly Bean. But which company here afraid the effort will show in the coming weeks and months.
The schedule for the rollout of Android 4.4.2, meanwhile, would provide that first 3 get the Galaxy S4 and the Galaxy Note the update, but shortly thereafter the users of the Galaxy S3 and Note 2 could be the new version of Google’s mobile operating system . play
But: Perhaps it is with the update just around a bug fix update, because: According to feedback from many users, it tweaks in Android 4.3 after the second rollout still – a first Samsung had due to too many bugs “aborted “. Since it fits into the picture, that, according to the mysterious Insiders Android 4.4 is no new software features muster. Rather, are likely to have subtle adjustments – such as the TouchWiz user interface
.
But one must not forget that Google had already declared last fall that Android 4.4 is resource-saving than Android 4.3 Jelly Bean. In this respect, this could mean that the operating system in the latest version of the Samsung Galaxy S3 and Galaxy Note 2 a “push” are – in terms of the usability of the liquid UI. But this of course is only speculation.
: Although Android 4.4 is likely theory on older systems without problems, informed about the HTC with already, that the One X will not receive Android update more. To that extent customers of the Galaxy S3 with respect to Android 4.4 at an advantage.
But the bottom line seems clear that not only the Samsung Galaxy S4 and Galaxy Note 3 will receive the update to Android 4.4.2, but also the Galaxy S3 and Galaxy Note 2 The South Koreans would thus bear in mind after all the flagships of the last two years with the update. Explicitly, there is no mention to date, meanwhile, the Galaxy S4 and S3 Mini.
Well, three times may be advised which operating system – it is rumored – April probably the Samsung Galaxy S5 could come on the market, exactly: Android 4.4. Only in terms of software features Samsung probably then step up a gear on top of it.
Android 4.4 KitKat, in the truest sense of the word for months in “all the rage” comes according to a recent Google statistics just on a spread of 1.3 per cent market share. There are, however, considered in brief various smartphones with Android 4.4 – including the HTC one, Sony Xperia Z or Samsung Galaxy S4 – is likely to be achieved the way to the Zweistelligkeit this year
.
phablet-owner of the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 can, meanwhile, are looking forward, at least in Poland. This is probably the Android 4.4 news last week: Android 4.4.2 KitKat is distributed. How the Dutch IT Blog SamMobile announced the Android Snapdragon processor rolls 4.4 Update for the variant including Qualcomm (four cores) – the model number: SM-N9005
.
To date, the launch was apparently “only” in Poland – but this suggests that other countries in Europe to follow suit shortly. Thus, Samsung stands the LG G2, Sony Xperia Z or the HTC one. Whereby also seems Galaxy S4 users first of all to stand back.
SamMobile has once again on the “waves” back in which an Android update is rolled out. So may well elapse weeks until approximately every Samsung Galaxy Note could install 3 Owners Android 4.4 KitKat on their Galaxy Note 3. In addition, trial balloons are usually first started, before the rollout takes place everywhere. So can still be adjusted. It is the way with Android 4.4 for the Galaxy Note 3 to no final test firmware – but the regular, the manufacturer Samsung initiated rollout of KitKat for the current phablet. His current flagships seems the IT giant from South Korea, therefore, always to love them.
We reserve the KitKat Android 4.4 update situation remains in view and report as soon as there is new evidence of the rollout for other mobile companion.
