When is Kit Kat coming for S4

I would like to know when the new software for the S4 will be being released. Think it is kind of crappy that we have the newest phone and still not able to update to newest software.

Don't worry... in true Verizon fashion we will be dead last to get the update.
Verizon will fiddle with the update (and add as much crapware &  bloatware as they can) until the other major carriers push out the update.  Once there backs are against the wall, they will release it.
What really surprised me is that Sprint got out the gate first and supposedly US Cellular is right behind them.  As soon as I read Sprint went first I started looking for people complaining of update issues after Kit Kat.  So far everything has been quiet.
This tells me the update must be pretty solid and Verizon should have no problem pushing it out right now as we share similar cellular technology with Sprint phones. 
But as I said... we will be dead last.
As someone up the chain asked, I googled Android 4.4 problems.  From what I read, it seemed that a lot of issues were nuisance things that Google handled.  The only major thing I read about was Samsungs meddling that broke the SView access to third party accessories.

  • When is KIT KAT coming to the Note 2 and Note 3 Big Red

    Verizon take to long to send  kit kat to the  Samsung galazy note2 and note3

    From what I've heard and seen of the Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note 3 KitKat 4.4.2 vrucnc2 build, it may be getting pushed OTA on Monday the 21st. Hopefully, but it could always change. Keeping my fingers crossed.

  • When will Kit Kat be available for my HTC One?

    I still don't have Kit Kat available for download on my HTC One. Any idea when that will happen?  I was told by Verizon support a few weeks ago that March 7, 2014 was the release date for the "pull".
    Thanks in advance.

        Thanks for the info Erik2013. Here are some steps to assist with making sure that update has fully been pushed to your device http://vz.to/1fYqhsJ If you are still having issues, you might need to master reset the phone to see if that can help push the update http://vz.to/OqXUHP Please keep us posted on the results. Before performing a hard reset, try to power the device off and pull the SIM card out for 5-10 minutes. Thanks again for your patience Erik2013.

  • Kit Kat update for Ellipsis 7???

    I tried searching the forums, but was unable to locate any information about a Kit Kat update for this tablet.  I've even Googled it on the internet and still cannot find any helpful information.  I apologize in advance if someone has already created a thread about this topic.  If this is the case, please redirect me to the forum.  Otherwise, does anyone know if Verizon is going to provide a Kit Kat update for the Ellipsis?  Or, are we stuck with the device "as is?"  Thanks!

        Hello nacho1970
    I'm glad to see that you are excited to experience all that Kit Kat has to offer on the Ellipsis 7 tablet. With so many new enhancements, what's there not to love. While there isn't any official info on if/when Kit Kat will be available for the Ellipsis 7 tablet, a great way to stay informed is to visit our news site regularly, http://vz.to/1sif5gW

  • UK Sony Xperia Z1 Kit Kat updates for unbranded phones?

    I have a UK generic unbranded Sony Xperia Z1 (i.e. I purchased my phone outright, not through a carrier) and am experiencing distorted audio and dropouts with Bluetooth when connected and playing music to some devices.  My phone is running Android 4.3 Sony update 14.2.A.0.290. 
    I read Sony have fixed the Bluetooth dropout and distortion issue with a later firmware 14.2.A.1.136 but Sony PC Companion and Sony Update Service will not upgrade my device beyond firmware release .290 (I've completed a 'repair' using both PC Companion and Sony Update Service and the phone is still on 14.2.A.0.290).
    Has Sony not produced a later firmware update for the non branded UK phones since 14.2.A.0.290?  I see the branded phones have got Android 4.4.2 Kit Kat in the form of update14.3.A.0.681, how long will it be before this version is available to UK users who bought their phones outright?

    Hi
    I'm currently having a conversation with Sony Xperia Contact Center (!) in regards to the Bluetooth issue with the .290 update, and why Bluetooth worked fine with the previous Android 4.2 update.  I've pointed out to them that techincally the phone is not fit for purpose (legal term) in its current state.  Awaiting their response

    Change your screen unlock to swipe and see if it comes up. Might have to reboot.  The icon works by touching it and then swiping across the screen.

  • When belle fp2 is coming for nokia 701?

    Belle fp2 has already been released for nokia 808. But why late for nokia 701? when is it coming actually?

    @md_alomgir
    Hi Guys,
    Please refer to my original anwser stated on this thread but just to re-iterate Nokia has not officially announced any new updates or release dates suffice to say support will continue for Belle devices up until 2016. Anything you read on the net "claiming" to be leaks or "from an a official source" is all speculation and as you all know from the forum guidelines to quote
    "Nokia does not comment on rumours or speculation concerning anything not officially announced by the company, and as such discussion of such matters on this forum is also not permitted."
    So anything you read on google and other websites are not offical! As stated by Nokia these devices will have continued support till 2016 but at this present time nothing in regards to a feature pack 2 has been announced. Please wait for offically annoucements which you can read on the forums or the Nokia website. You can also check for updates as well through your devices and Nokia suite. When a new update is read you will be informed through your device. For more information please refer to the the following limk:

  • HT4623 When is IOS 7 coming for iPod touch generation 5?

    I hav been waiting and searching for the answer but it seems that there is no exact date yet.

    Apple has not given an exact date. You can guess that it'll be once they've tested and debugged and are ready to release it.
    If your searching reveals any copies out there, don't mess with them. Unless you're a registered developer, if you install any unapproved software and it damages your device, your warranty can be voided and you can end up with a dead device.

  • GS4 Can't send SMS after 4.4.2 Kit Kat update

    Just as the title states, updated to kit kat last night and now I cant send SMS, only receive. All other functionality (4g wifi etc) works
    Galaxy S4

    I don't know why so many people are complaining about the Kit Kat update for their GS4.  Folks you have to learn to adjust to new things.  I know its frustrating when your $600 phone that worked perfectly well before but now it is no longer able to make or get calls bothers you, but Android, Samsung, and Verizon know what they are doing.  Right??? They wouldn't release a buggy update that would drastically  change the way you can use your phone without warning you if it wasn't for your good? Right???  You just have to relax and evolve.  Things are changing.  Smart phones making and receiving calls and text messages, and connecting to the internet...that is so last week.  (you know before we upgraded to Kit Kat) .  Now you just need to think positive about all the things your phone can still do.   You may not be able to get a signal to dial out and make and receive calls.  Me neither. But i can still get the voice mails that my boss, my son's school,  and my mom's doctor leave for me.  This Kit Kat has completely changed how I can use my phone. I'm going to remain positive, because I do not want to go back to jail.     I remember 2 weeks ago when I could use my phone to make calls, send and receive text messages, and i used to be able to get calls too. People from all over would call me. It was nice.  Those were the good old days.  But Kit Kat has changed all of that now.  Its a new world and we have to learn to adjust and move on.   Now thanks to Kit Kat my Galaxy S4 is my main remote control for my tv. The IR still works.   I mean I wouldn't have normally spent $600 on a tv remote, but what can you do. Its Android.  They know what's best.
