In October and November, Samsung started Rolling Out Galaxy S4, S3 and Galaxy 2 Galaxy Note Android 4.3 Jelly Bean updates. And while many of Those updates have rolled out, there are still some major updates que have yet to emerge, even the Android 4.4 update rumors KitKat continues to swirl. Here, we breakdown the current Samsung Android 4.3 Jelly Bean update situation.
Back in April, the Samsung Galaxy S4 hit shelves with Android 4.2 Jelly Bean on board. At the Team, Android 4.2 Jelly Bean was Google’s most current version of Android. Galaxy S3 and Galaxy Note 2 owners figured They would be next in line to Android 4.2 Jelly Bean. It did not turn out That Way. Instead, skipped Samsung Android 4.2 Jelly Bean in behalf of Android 4.3 Jelly Bean.
Android 4.3 Jelly Bean was Announced in July, just weeks after the arrival of the Galaxy S4. And while it rolled out to Nexus devices in July, it did not start hitting Samsung’s smartphones until late 2013 something que rumors accurately predicted months prior to the official announcements.
In October, Samsung Galaxy S4 confirmed, Galaxy S3, Galaxy Note 2 and Android 4.3 Jelly Bean updates. A few days later, the Galaxy S4 Android 4.3 update rolled October In November, the Galaxy S3 and Galaxy Note 2 Android 4.3 updates started rolling out and since then, carriers have been pushing updates to Their customers in October.
As expected, the Android 4.3 updates are much more than Android 4.3. They bring Galaxy S4 features to the Galaxy S3 software and They also bring the Galaxy Note 3′s brand new Multi-Window View to the Galaxy Note 2.
We’re now in 2014 and the Galaxy S4, Galaxy S3, Galaxy Note 2 and Android 4.3 Jelly Bean updates are still rolling in October We’ve been tracking what’s left of these updates and here, we take at look at Samsung’s progress to wind down these roll outs.
Samsung Galaxy S4
The Samsung Galaxy S4 Android 4.3 Jelly Bean roll out has wound down in the United States but does not mean que que the roll out is completely done. Updates will continue to emerge for carriers around the world, most recently in Venezuela and on Australian carrier Telstra, the Latter of Which just saw the update become available through Samsung Kies.
Telstra was one of the few major carriers left que had not updated the Galaxy S4 with Android 4.3 so it’s pretty clear the que Galaxy S4 Android 4.3 update is extremely close to completion. Those who have yet to see the update Should see it emerge in the near future.
French carrier SFR has said That It will roll out the Android 4.4 Galaxy S4 KitKat update in late January or early February and it would be extremely odd to see the Android 4.3 roll out Android 4.4 collide with KitKat.
Samsung Galaxy S3
Samsung’s Galaxy S3 Android 4.3 Jelly Bean update roll out continues as well, weeks after the roll out finished up in the United States. The update, most recently, hit carriers in Singapore and it’s scheduled to land for the LTE Galaxy S3 on French carrier SFR sometime this month after a slight delay.
Australian carrier Telstraremains one of the last major carriers without a Galaxy S3 Android 4.3 Jelly Bean update and the carrier is still not sure When the update will be deployed. Recently, the carrier in October pushed an Android 4.1 Jelly Bean right to update some Galaxy S3 variants were receiving Android 4.3. It’s still not clear if the company will follow suit.
Samsung Galaxy Note 2
The Samsung Galaxy Note Android 4.3 update 2, Rolling Out Which starting last, remains active and there are still several major updates remaining in action. The update recently landed for the 3G version of SFR’s Galaxy Note 2 and’ve heard Also That It hit Taiwan Within the last couple of days as well.
Still, there are two major updates missing. French carrier SFR still has not rolled its October 2 Galaxy Note LTE Android 4.3 Jelly Bean update though it claims the update que Should land sometime this month. Galaxy Note 2 on Australian carrier Telstra customers are in even worse shape it seems thanks to an unforeseen delay.
The carrier originally promised to roll out the update by December 23rd, though, thanks to user complaints, we know this has not happened que. The carrier has apologized and says That It’s working to figure out the source of the delay. It has not, However, provided any kind of frame time for its users.
