According to the wireless carrier, the new update will be pushed to devices in stages, which means that not all users will receive access to it right away. However, the company aims at updating all devices in the next 14 days.
Users will be notified on the availability of the new software, and will be able to choose to download and install it as soon as that happens. Before proceeding, however, they should make sure that the battery inside their devices has been charged at least at 50 percent.
