Samsung Galaxy S5 Active is updated to Android 4.4.4

The Samsung Galaxy S5 Active is an exclusive for AT&T. The device is the version of Samsung's flagship phone designed for the user with a devil may care personality. Sporting a military specification of 810g and an IP67 certification, the Galaxy S5 Active is designed to survive drops, falls and submersion in up to 3.2 feet of water for as long as 30 minutes. The handset is made with stronger plastic than the regular version of the Galaxy S5, which came with its own IP67 certification last year. 

On Monday, AT&T started rolling out Android 4.4.4 for the Samsung Galaxy S5 Active. Version G870AUCU1AOA1 will bring "Miscellaneous improvements, bug fixes, and security updates" to the phone. Samsung suggests that the battery be fully charged before the update process is begun. The manufacturer also says that the update can be postponed three times, but will automatically be downloaded and installed on the fourth try. In other words, there is no escaping Android 4.4.4 for owners of the Galaxy S5 Active.

Since the update is being sent out on a staggered basis, not everyone will receive it immediately. You can try to manually get the update process started by going to Menu > Settings > More Settings > About device > Software update > Check for updates. Touch OK. Eventually, the Samsung Galaxy S5 Active should receive the Android 5.0 update.
