What if an update for my Android phone isn't listed ?

Software updates are sent to us by the manufacturer. If an update isn't listed on this page, we're yet to receive the update from the manufacturer.

Normally, major updates are first released to non-carrier varients of the device. These are devices sold directly through the manufacturer or another retailer.
