Hi!

I would like to ask for your assistance. Can you provide me on how to resolve my issue? Can you give me pointers on how to update my Android phone operating system to Lollipop? What are the specifications of the software? What are the things that I need to remember before I do this? Can’t I just go straight ahead with the upgrade? Can you provide me alternative ways to resolve it? Please guide me with this problem. Thank you very much and have a nice day!

Hello,

Upgrading your Android OS to the latest version depends on the support of your device and the manufacturer’s latest OS update. You can check if your OS is updated but if the manufacturer didn’t modify Android Lollipop for your device, you can’t have it on your phone.

In order to update or upgrade your Android,

1. Connect to internet on your device.

2. Go to Apps >> Settings >> About Device >> Software update.

3. Tap “Update”.

Now, if your Android is upgradable to Android Lollipop, you’ll get a message that your device is about to be updated to Android Lollipop.

As Android Lollipop comes with lots of changes, many manufacturers have made highest upgrade to KitKat only which is also a nice OS. Lollipop isn’t available for most of the devices but KitKat is.

It's always a good idea to keep a backup of your personal data before upgrading your OS as sometimes, you might face trouble with upgrading. Though it's very rare, the upgrading process is generally safe.

If you are using an Android Smartphone and you want to update the device to a much higher version of the Android operating system, that would depend on your Smartphone or the model of your device. An Android Smartphone is like a computer. Updating its operating system depends on the capacity of the hardware installed or the specifications of the machine or device.

To know up to what version you can update your phone, try visiting your phone’s manufacturer website. Another way is to install your phone’s PC software on your computer and then using your computer, you can check if your phone has an available update. If you are using a Samsung Smartphone, you need to download Samsung Kies.

If you are using an iPhone, you need to download iTunes.
