I would like to make a code that downloads .apk file from url and put it in external storage then launch the update . But I am facing a problem with Kitkat Devices ( Only tested with Emulators ) .
After making few researches I found out that It seems that Kitkat uses okhttp instead of the previous HTTPConnection implementation, or at least this is the case on Nexus devices with the official update.
