Samsung has already managed to roll out an update for the Galaxy S5 to most areas, and has started a Lollipop crusade for the Galaxy S4, with an update for the old-gen arriving to handsets across Russia. Now, the roll-out continues to another large market – India.
The update applies to the Exynos variant of the Galaxy S4; GT-I9500 – and is said to contain some UI tweaks, the new heads-up notifications, a rehash of the multitasking menu, and improvements to performance, security, and battery life.
For the inpatient and adventurous among you; the firmware is available at live.samsung-updates.com, where you can also find an update for the GT-I9506 (Snapdragon) variant, though, if you are unsure of the actions and risks involved in manually flashing the firmware.
