I want to know too. I have a Chinese dual SIM which I would like to update. Is there a standard or generic Android OS updater?

Of course not. There are many different devices, so is very difficult develop a tool like that.
To both: The updates are device-dependant, so you need to wait for updates from your manufacturer device. However, you can try a ROM developed for the chipset of your device (you can get the model using CPU Identifier). Of course, this way gives no guaranties of good functionality.

This is my first android device. I used the search option but didn't find anything useful since i have a chinese tablet. I have a "Chuwi V10" with android 4.1.1. I want to update it to 4.2 manually. How do i go about it? Thanks in advance!
You need to wait for manufacturer's updates (it's a chinese device... so don't expect too much).

No, you need a ROM specifically developed for your device.

Sorry for my bad question and thank you for your reply.
My vendor doesn't provide the update for my device.
It is a Malaysia production smartphone.
My question are, can I just simply upgrade my version from 4.0.4 to stock android 4.4 from google?
Any specific system requirements for upgrade version?

no you can't, if your vendor doesn't give the update, you can't just simply update it, ,
but, if you can or understand about android programming, you can build it your self from the Source, like AOSP, Cyanogen, etc...

yea. That is what I am looking for but sadly I am not the programmer.
Waiting any expert to build it.
I don’t think you should to wait. There won’t be much or no support for these phones. Your best bet is to root and remove any unwanted system apps.
Highest I tried JB 4.1.1

You can't flash the firmware of a different phone to yours. You need to build a rom from source with the device tree of your device. That's the way it works.

Ok, seems you don't understand how Android works.
You can't install another rom on your device cause the drivers inside the rom are not suitable for your device and it's not like installing windows on any PC which has universal drivers.
No, Android roms has only one set of drivers for one device.
I have been trying to find a method to update the android version on Hisilicon Hi3796 M100 android Set top box which is at present running android 4.4.2. As the android is this old, it doesn't support a good number of apps, from playstore, or by adb. I tried to find a custom rom online, but couldn't find. Is there one? Or is there any way to update the os if there is no official update available?
Moving from Android 4.4.2 to Android 5.0+ is an upgrade not an update.
To upgrade you need a Custom ROM what requires you have to flash a Custom Recovery ( e.g. TWRP ) before. Do you have a 100% matching TWRP available?
Hey,
Thank you for the quick reply. And thank you again for correcting that update-upgrade thing. Will keep it in mind.
And I am sorry I couldn't find a custom ROM for my device online. I am not sure what exactly it means by flashing a custom recovery.
Could you please explain it a little bit... or give some link from where I could find it out?
Thank you.

No. I searched everywhere I could and there is not even remotely matching TWRP available.
