Android updates aren't exactly the best kept secrets in the world, and as a result, the highly anticipated 4.3 update has been spotted once more. And this time you can actually use it. The update is available for the Google Play Edition Samsung Galaxy S4 (GT-I9505G) and the Snapdragon-powered version of the Galaxy S4 (GT-I9505), and it isn't through official channels.
You can install the update if you have one of those devices by following these steps. However, be warned that doing so will void your warranty. You will need a rooted device with a custom recovery installed.
Now try out Android 4.3 on your Google Play Edition Galaxy S4

It was recently revealed that the Google Play Edition for the Samsung Galaxy S4 and the HTC One will not be getting updates from Google. Instead, updates for these devices will be handled by Samsung and HTC respectively. Both the devices have been found to run on different kernels than Nexus devices.
The Galaxy S4 runs kernel version 3.4.0, while the HTC One has kernel version 3.4.10. Nexus 4 also has 3.4.0, but it's a different build. It makes sense for Google to not have the same kernel version for the two Google Edition phones. Samsung and HTC would best know their own hardware and can customise the kernel based on it. Since kernel updates will be seeded by Samsung and HTC, the OS updates will also follow from them.
The Google Edition S4 and One went on sale at the US Google Play Store this week. While the S4 is priced at $649 (Rs 39,000 approx), the HTC One with stock Android can be had for $599 (Rs 36,000 appox). Confused about which one to pick? Check out our Catch-22 article.
