Samsung Galaxy Ace 2 users are in luck. This team, one of the most interesting currently in its category "" mid-range around 200 euros "", and one of the main attractions of the South Korean catalog for the general public, has begun to be updated to one of the latest versions of Google's operating system for smartphones. We refer to Android 4.1.2 Jelly Bean, a platform that we currently find in the most powerful phones of the firm, such as the Samsung Galaxy S3 or the Samsung Galaxy Note 2"" Which, incidentally, will begin to update to the next edition, Android 4.2, in the coming weeks "".
Through SamMobile we have learned that this model has begun to catch up, a process that will be developed in a staggered and phased manner. That is why Samsung Galaxy Ace 2 users who check the availability of updates without finding the new version of the system have to remain patient until the time comes when they are given way. This is common, and although at the moment it is unknown when access to Android 4.1.2 would kick off among the Samsung Galaxy Ace 2 sold and distributed in Spain, even at that time the possibility of acquiring the platform would be subject to to the distribution of shifts.
In this sense, it is also important to consider how we can get hold of the new version of the system in the Samsung Galaxy Ace 2. Thus, as we already know, there are two ways to update the phone with the latest of the latest available. On the one hand, there is the OTA ( Over the air ) option, which works in your favor when with the convenience of the wireless and autonomous way of searching, directly from the mobile, for the update, to download and install it directly without resorting to other devices. This possibility, however, limits its availability much more, so the most impatient users should turn to the other method.
This requires a computer on which we have downloaded and installed the Samsung Kies desktop application. It is a completely free program that will help us to make our Samsung phone communicate with the servers of the South Korean multinational and, thus, inspect if there are any news to its access that it can incorporate. We can also use Kies to synchronize music, videos and images, as well as our contact list, keeping regular backups of all stored content.
But let's go to what interests us, the update. If we choose this route, as soon as we connect the Samsung Galaxy Ace 2 via USB to the computer and open the Samsung Kies application, it will tell us if we have the update to Android 4.1.2 Jelly Bean available, so that when it is, the application itself program will supervise the process. Seen this way, it can be very comfortable, as long as we do not mind having to resort to a computer and the necessary cables to carry out the task.
