Here is how to do the update on a S3, dir's might be a little different on a S4 don't know as I didn't order one. I did do on my S1's back when I had them and the scare started circulating and it went smooth. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=671189.msg9071790#msg9071790

Directories are the same but alas, the architecture is different :-( when I downloaded that 4.6.0 binary it wouldn't run.  it gave the error:
Code:
  ./cgminer: line 1:
  syntax error: unexpected "("

And when I ran "file" on them both, they say:

Code:
  $ file cgminer-3.12.0 # this is the one on the S4
  cgminer-3.12.0: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, ARM, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked (uses shared libs), for GNU/Linux 2.6.32, stripped

  $ file cgminer-4.6.0 # this is the one you can download for the S2 and S3
  cgminer-4.6.0: ELF 32-bit MSB executable, MIPS, MIPS32 rel2 version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked (uses shared libs), with unknown capability 0x41000000 = 0xf676e75, with unknown capability 0x10000 = 0x70403, stripped



Might shoot CK a pm and see if he has any input.
