The AT&T carrier started to push the Android 4.4.2 KitKat update to its Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini variant. Other US mobile carriers like Sprint, Verizon or US Cellular rolled out the Android 4.4.2 KitKat update for their Galaxy S4 Mini variants already and now is the time for users of Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini from AT&T to jump from Android 4.2 to Android 4.4.2.
If you own an AT&T Galaxy S4, you should receive an update message any time now so keep an eye on your device’s notifications bar.
The Android 4.4.2 OTA update for Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini is deployed in stages, so do not worry if the OTA notification is not there, because not all users are able to download and install it at once.
However, when your Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini will be ready for the new Android 4.4.2 update and will receive an automatic system update message in the notification bar, all you need to do is tap on it and follow the on-screen guidance.
In case, the system fails to prompt you check for the KitKat update manually under Settings -> More -> About device -> Software update -> Check for updates, or connect your device to a PC using the USB cable and check for the new update trough Samsung KIES.
The Android 4.4.2 update adds to your Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini the usual KitKat improvements and fixes such as cloud printing, white status bar icons, full screen album and movie art, transparent status bar, new Location menu, immersive mode, color emoji support and TouchWiz UI improvements. You will also get the updated Samsung native apps, an improved Samsung Keyboard, bug fixes and more.
The build number of the new update is I257UCU2BNG4 and a size of over 800 MB.
We recommend you to download the update file using a stable WiFi connection in order to avoid unwanted data charges and also to charge your device’s battery to avoid interruptions during the installation process.
