Have a Samsung Android phone and waiting for an official Samsung update. Then this will be a wait for a while, as Samsung will usually take around 6 months to update your phone with the latest Android version. You can always get the lastest version of Android from outside but if you are waiting for an official update from Samsung for your Android SmartPhone then you will get the customized version of Android developed/modified for your phone. Best example would be some of the apps like SNote, SPlanner, SChoice, Paper Artist etc. that are developed for Samsung SmartPhones like Galaxy Note having Stylus Pen. Before installing the latest Android update people like me would have watched many previews and reviews and eagerly waiting for their phone update for months, but trying some of the new features on your own is a totally different experience.
Once there is an official update from Samsung the first thing that we do is to check if the battery is fully charged. 
Next is to connect to WiFi and go to Settings>> About Phone>> Software Update>> Update. On clicking update, you might get a message to continue with the update or a pop-up message saying“Access to software update service is provided to users in the order in which they request it. Try later” as shown. This can be very disappointing for a person who is waiting for an update for months and that too when we know that there is an update available.

- Download and install the latest version of Samsung Kies in your machine (PC).
- After installing Kies, connect your device to your PC where Kies is installed.
- Kies will now detect you SmartPhone and check for an firmware update.
- Kies will show your current version and the latest firmware version that is available for installation.
- Now click on update with/without backup option.
- Firmware will now be downloaded to your SmartPhone and installed (without the above message), this might take some time depending on the network speed.
