Sprint Samsung Galaxy S5 Android 4.4.4 KitKat OTA Update Rolling Out Now

Samsung has announced that theSprint Samsung Galaxy S5 devices should now be getting the latest Android 4.4.4 KitKat Update OTA (Over-The-Air). Waste no time and start checking your phone’s notification panel and see if there are any new firmware files available for installation.

The Android 4.4.4 KitKat OTA Update for Galaxy S5 was announced over a month ago by Sprint, but there weren’t any news confirming that the update has hit any devices. Now, it seems like the G900PVPU1ANI4 KitKat 4.4.4 build is rolling out for Sprint Galaxy S5 users.

This build of Android 4.4.4 will probably be the final KitKat firmware, as Samsung and Sprint will focus their attention to Android L 5.0when this new upgrade will be issued by Google later this year. Until then you should install the new build if you’re on stock Android and see how is your device working with it seeing that the new firmware adds better stability and a faster Android performance.

Android 4.4.4 G900PVPU1ANI4 update comes with a new HD Voice icon, International VoWiFi support and multiple Google security patches. Besides all these changes your device and its UI will get several minor bug fixes. The new update files are delivered via OTA and you should expect the notification to appear soon. Note that Samsung is issuing the update in phases, so you might not get the G900PVPU1ANI4 firmware update today and you don’t need to worry if it doesn’t arrive, as it will eventually be released for all Stock Samsung Galaxy S5 Sprint devices.

The new firmware update will not be released to Sprint Galaxy S5 phones that are currently sporting any custom ROMs or other major modifications. If the update notifications doesn’t show up on your device and you don’t have any modifications applied, then you should go to Settings> System Update> Update menu. Use that menu in order to search for new firmware files and confirm the download and installation processes, then allow your Galaxy S5 Sprint to complete the Android 4.4.4 KitKat Update automatically.
