Samsung Galaxy S4 Update Release Date: Firmware Update In Germany OTA or Via Kies

Samsung has started updating the Samsung Galaxy S4 (version GT-19505) in Germany. But don't get your hopes up, because the update is only a small update for the firmware of the German Samsung Galaxy S4s. So we continue to wait for the Samsung Galaxy S4 Android 4.3 update release date.

The Samsung Galaxy S4 LTE in Germany is getting firmware update "DBT," and can either get the update over the air (OTA) or using their Samsung KIES. The details on the firmware update are below, via those Samsung watchers, SamMobile:

Could this signal any big Android updates to come? Germany was actually the first place where the Android 4.2.2 update began rolling out for Samsung's mid-tier devices, with, for example, the Galaxy Note 8.0 getting the Android 4.2.2 update in several countries afterwards. But unfortunately, the answer is probably not.

Samsung Galaxy S4 owners, who didn't get the Google Play edition of the phone, are still waiting to find out when they can get the Android 4.3 update, which has already come to the Google Play Galaxy S4. And meanwhile, Samsung Galaxy S3 and Galaxy Note 2 owners are unsure of whether they're going to get the Android 4.3 or Android 4.2.2 update. We'll keep you posted on when the Galaxy S4 or S3 get Android updates, which should be sometime soon, as in the coming months.

The Samsung Galaxy S4 is currently running Android 4.2.2, which it runs out of the box. It's got a 5-inch Super AMOLED display with 1080 x 1920p resolution. In the U.S., it comes with 1.9GHz quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 600 chip, with 2GB of RAM assisting. It has a minimum 16GB of built-in storage, but you can also get a 32GB or a 64GB model, and there's a microSD slot for 64GB more expansion.

The Galaxy S4 should be getting the Android 4.3 update some time soon, so pay close attention and follow us here at Latinosposttech.com for more updates.
