My guess is it will come in ICS. At least I don't see why it shouldn't. I don't see the point of the NS 4G exclusive lasting much longer. At some point they are going to lose out on competition if they don't start getting this on NFC enabled phones.
I really hope it comes supported on all nexus s phones when ICS comes out for us so I don't have to flash a zip each time and can instead just get the updates from market

So I just got this phone yesterday and I love it so far... My only question or concern is will it still get the updates as quick as the nexus... I noticed it was still on 4.2.2 and my Nexus tablet is on 4.3... That was my main selling point to buy the phone...

Not as quick as a Nexus. No phones or tablets get updates as quick as the Nexus line.
If that was the main selling point for you, I suggest you return it and wait for the Nexus 5.

Many people believe, since Google owns Motorola, that Motorola phone will get updates faster... Google has already stated that this is not true, they get no preferential treatment in regards to updates.
That being said, due to the limited bastardization of android on the moto x, it is fair to believe that this device has the potential to get updates quicker, whether that will play out as such, will be better known in the future.
But, the quick answer to your question is"no" this will not get updates as fast as a nexus device... Its not a nexus device. But it is understandable to believe that we will get updates more quickly than most other manufacturers devices on the market.

I will be happy if we hey an update in a reasonable amount of time... I guess that's a matter of opinion on what's a reasonable amount of time... I just traded in my HTC One XL for this phone so as long as I would get the updates faster than I did on that phone I will be happy... Also I was hoping to get support for this device for a longer period of time and keep receiving the updates... I just figured since it does not have a heavy ui like sense or touch wiz I would get updates quicker and supported longer... But I'm happy with the phone so I think I'm just going to keep it...

This is the first phone I've had that I don't want to root... I actually want the ability to get the ota updates, seems like Motorola is actively listening to consumers and pushing updates... I don't want to miss out on what they have coming. Plus, this phone is simply amazing, just the way it is.

AP is usually pretty accurate. Dates are always subject to change based on carrier, but the current target date for Sprint S4 4.3 update appears to be 10/30
Edit: according to the article, the Verizon update was expected to be released today, and it did - http://www.androidpolice.com/2013/1...now-lists-android-4-3-ota-update-i545vruemj7/
2 days to go for 10/30 - woohoo!
Edit 2: http://www.androidpolice.com/2013/1...sprints-galaxy-s4-is-ready-right-on-schedule/
Now, waiting for "I got it" threads, and for "4.3 flashable, rooted available here"
I'm looking forward to a TW rom with 4.3, but I'm really wanting the AOSP 4.4 Rom
What's new for 4.4? I'm mostly looking forward to 4.3 to utilize the NotificationListener service.

If we are just getting 4.3 on Halloween then chances are we won't see KitKat until December-January, possibly even February! :/

Only if smart ones would try to flash international leaks on Sprint or flash unrooted on a rooted phone.

Seems like with this phone, by the time the full tar.md5 is discovered, there's already a flash for root and hotspot. The hard part is to find the strength to wait past the update zip and tar and go for the full flash. With this phone, and decades of pc updates with Windows, the best and most thorough experience is had with waiting for the full flash, not update, to surface. Yes the updates work but my opinion is held that a full install is better than just a patch update. Your mileage may vary.

It has only been "announced" in the sense that Google revealed the name and version number in an online post. They haven't actually held a traditional announcement in which they give release info and go over the new features that are included. We don't know when it's coming out or what all it includes yet.

That announcement will be made when announce the new Nexus devices since they will be offered with 4.4 out of the box in all likelihood.

Sammobile listing leaked 4.3 builds for AT&T phones. Sounds like they have kept a tight grip on the 4.3 release. I would have expected at least one early release to be leaked before the OTA is available.
I wouldn't be too happy about an update given that there is basically a 100% chance that it will include a Knox-equipped bootloader.

The improved notifications is already part of the MK7 update, right? But hey, "improvement to the lift-and-pause gesture that activates the clock"... Good good... great! Can't wait to test that out.
Update: it is the US version of the MK7 update that was rolled out earlier in Europe.

It's in the mk7 release. Check the motions section of the settings panel.

You mean the option to wake up with the last used screen? I wouldn't call that an "improvement to the lift-and-pause gesture that activates the clock" (quote Engadget).
What about an SDK??? I would love to see way more apps for this thing
Whats the difference between the mk7 US version amd the UK version. I flashed the mk7 UK version on mine and im from US.

I would like to have any market app that we have been sideloading be able to be pulled down and installed in the Gear directly like Google Music. I hate having to reload it and all others every time there is an update. Perhaps a default music player and video player would be awesome.

Im still waiting for it too; Im in the Bay Area and my 14th day return expires close of business tomorrow.
I saw elsewhere we will get it on 11/29. Looking forward to it!
I was about to do the UK update since Sammy as usual drags their feet to support US customers. But given its supposed to arrive tomorrow I will just wait another day, can't hurt.
As for the Gear Manager, where do we update that? Is it part of the Samsung Hub app in the Samsung folder?

Gear Manager should update on the phone, and to the latest version. Swipe down from top of screen, click on Samsung Galaxy Gear, then click on the name of your device, then click Software Update, then click Update and agree to check for a new one. Latest version should end in MK7. This is what broke the Exchange email notifications for many, or all, of us in the USA. Hopefully they update the Gear software and this phone software, as I heard both must happen to get Exchange back and working.
Did anyone notice that the GM had a new date today and yestersay but it looks like the same version. Can someone verify? Still no updated US firmware

I have been pestering at&t customer service about it as frequently as I can. Maybe once a week.
The chat guys are really nice but they admit they dont know anything about the update. They admit it has been released over 3 months ago (by samsung to at&t) and that they have to sanction it first. They also say "i dont konw, might be never".
I got a chat guy for AT&T to admit that 4.4.2 for S4 was released 2/26/2014
So if it was this recently, note 3's update is probably coming soon.
Has anyone else received a small software update? I am currently in baseband nb4.

The title really should be changed.
1: it is misleading and makes people think it has been released
2: it has not been released so this "discussion" is exactly the same as the rest all over the forums.
3: it is a question in the OP asking for an ETA. Not really allowed and nothing has been said or heard on when it comes out. It gets released when it gets released. And since it is a question, it belongs in the QA section.

She got kitkat. We haven't yet. On her phone the entire system has to be bone stock to update. At least that's what I'd do just to be sure. Make sure she has a good wifi connection.

if at&t follows their usual update patterns, i expect it will be released in late april or early may (when the s5 is coming out). im assuming they're just waiting for the s5 to come out before releasing kitkat so people will buy the s5 instead of the s4 since it will be their only kitkat phone. just an educated guess

AT&T already officially released the 4.4.2 KitKat update for the S4 about 2 weeks ago.
