A few weeks back Galaxy Note 3 owners on AT&T received the Android 4.4.4 KitKat update from the carrier. Shortly after Android 4.4.4 was released for this device AT&T stopped the roll out because of a bug in its phonebook sync application. This resulted in yet another wait for the update to be released, which ends today, as AT&T has started the roll out once again after halting it last month.
Samsung Galaxy Note 3 owners on AT&T will now be able to download Android 4.4.4 KitKat on their devices. There’s no reason to get your hopes up when the update lands on your device, it won’t bring Android 5.0 Lollipop, which is undoubtedly the Android update people crave right now.
The company hasn’t provided a confirmed release timeframe for Lollipop but several reports suggest that it may take up till early 2015 for Samsung to release Android 5.0 for devices like the Galaxy S5, Galaxy Note 4, Galaxy Note 3 and others.
Back to this update, which not only bumps up Android version to 4.4.4, but also brings the Galaxy Note 3 Value Pack that brings applications like Side Sync 3.0, Kids Mode, Virtual tour, Knox 2.0 and Safety Assistance.
As always, this update has been released over-the-air, which means that it will land automatically on your device as soon as it goes live in your region.
