Hello.
Are firmware updates dependent on mobile carriers or does Samsung push them itself? Seeing as Android 4.3 has already been released, I'd like to at least upgrade to 4.2 as many apps make that the minimum requirement. I live in Malawi so if they are carrier dependent, does that mean I will be stuck 4.1 forever (I can try doing it manually but I prefer using official update methods for risk of harming the device)?
