At this moment the only drawback that may stop S4 getting Android L is either Samsung delivery speed and RAM, so far Android base FW are more Memory friendly and the only drawback is SAMSUNG speed... 4.4.4 also take so long S4 may be the last update or 4.4.4 the last one...

slowly wait lo for L, if got then good la, if no also not a surprise.

Thats what I dislike about Samsung phones. Slow updates.


By the way, 4.4.4 is on the way. So we just have to be patient abit more. Hope it solves most of the bugs and issues like battery drain.

4.4.4 for S4

I read that also, so far only T-Mobile... Others need to wait again..

Something many dislike... WAIT!!!!!

At least another month or year end before we get it.

my guess is november..

My guess is further than november

Christmas.... CNY.......

Remember when s4 got KitKat? Promised December/January when note 3 launched.

Samsung sucks in updating their devices. They are more interested in coming up with new and similar devices hoping Samsung Fags will buy their products like I-Zombies do.

You are right no one will on Samsung site when coming to FW updates but what i believe is Samsung over done on their bloatware until everytime when there are new FW released by Google they need the entire troop to make it compatible. They have dozen device to take care and you can just imagine.

Effort they need to get something up is huge. If the FW lousy they get blame and if slow also get blame, ultimately they decided to be slow rather than low quality product.

yes towelroot works, i tried it myself long ago.

You follow steps listed or directly root it using towelroot?

the moment towelroot was launched, i tested it.

v1 didn't work for me, but v2 was good.

i just follow towelroot steps, no issue.
