When will my phone get the Android 4.4 KitKat

When will my phone get the Android 4.4 KitKat update: here is what we know





 Google announced Android 4.4 KitKat yesterday and it is a fairly big update to the world’s most popular platform, but question remains: when will you be able to get it?


*We will be updating this post continuously as more information comes in. Last update: Nov - 20th - 2013.


 It’s a tricky one as always with Android. Google claimed it has made huge optimizations to the platform and its core apps so even devices with 512MB of RAM (the overwhelming majority of Androids across the world are actually low-end devices with 512MB of RAM) can have a good, smooth Android experience.


 The new Android 4.4 KitKat however still seems to be coming first and only to the top-shelf devices. Here is the list of phones we know will get the update. We have added a timeframe for that update. The information comes straight from the manufacturer, so it is official, not a rumor.


 If you are wondering about a device that is not on the list, chances are the manufacturer either has not yet announced plans or the device will not get the KitKat update.


 With no further ado, here is when Android 4.4 is coming to various devices:


 HTC
 HTC One (including carrier models) – By end-January
 HTC One mini - Within 90 days
 HTC One max - Within 90 days
 HTC One Google Play Edition – Within 15 days
 HTC Droid DNA - by end of Q1
 Motorola (no timeframes yet)
 DROID Ultra
 DROID Maxx
 DROID Mini
 DROID RAZR M (including Dev Edition)
 DROID RAZR HD (including Dev Edition)
 DROID RAZR MAXX HD
 Atrix HD
 Electrify M
 Moto X - "weeks" after Nov 13th announcement (*Verizon Moto X - Update is now available)
 Moto G - will launch in the U.S. with Android 4.4 on board
 Nexus Devices
 Nexus 4 – *Update is now available
 Nexus 7 – “Coming weeks”
 Nexus 10 – “Coming weeks”
 Samsung
 Galaxy S4 Google Play Edition – “Coming weeks”
 Sony
 Sony Xperia Z1 / Z Ultra - end of January / early February (*rumor)


 Other Samsung devices like the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 and Galaxy S4 with TouchWiz are notably absent. That’s because Samsung has not unveiled plans yet.

Angelina Jolie to direct ivory poaching tale 'Africa'

Africa will be Jolie's fifth project as a director Continue reading the main story Angelina Jolie has signed up to direct Africa, a film about celebrated conservationist Richard Leakey's battles with ivory poachers. The screenplay has been written by Eric Roth - who won an Oscar for Forrest Gump. Leakey is former head of the Kenya Wildlife Service and was key to stemming the trade in illegal ivory. "I've felt a deep connection to Africa and its culture for much of my life," said Jolie. Leakey's extreme measures to tackle poachers, including sending helicopter gunships into the national park, have helped Kenya's elephant and rhino populations recover from the brink of disaster. He made international headlines in 1989, when a stockpile of 12 tonnes of ivory was burned in Nairobi National Park. Jolie said Africa is about "a man drawn into the violent conflict with elephant poachers, who emerged with a deeper understanding of man's f...

Bollywood cleavage row shows India's 'crass' side

Image
A clash between India's top newspaper and a Bollywood actress shows no signs of abating. It all began last week with The Times of India publishing a photo and tweet about actress Deepika Padukone's cleavage. "OMG: Deepika Padukone's cleavage show," the paper tweeted alongside a photo of her from an event last year. The actress hit back angrily, tweeting: " YES! I am a Woman. I have breasts AND a cleavage! You got a problem!!??". It was re-tweeted more than 7,000 times and the #IStandWithDeepikaPadukone became India's top Twitter trend for hours on the day. The newspaper deleted the tweet, but tried to mollify her, replying "It's a compliment! You look so great that we want to make sure everyone knew! :)" Clearly, Padukone was not pleased with the reply. Neither were many others. She wrote a longish post on her Facebook on Friday, saying that she had "spoken out against an ideology that such regressive tactics are st...
