[Poll}Android JB 4.1 for the Note, Possible for the Note

Hello! I thought I'd start this thread just to see what you guys think about the current devices getting 4.1.
It doesn't look like Samsung have been pushing ICS too hard after its initial update. Could it be possible that they're working on 4.1? It looks like hardware isn't an issue .

4.1 will come right with the note 2. And maybe with enough outcry of the comunity we will get it too but defenetly after the note 2 release. Thats how it's been in the past....

Tweets from SamMobile:
- Android 4.1 for Galaxy SIII #sgs3 Q3 2012.
- No information about Android 4.1 for SII and Note yet. Both devices will see Android 4.0.4.
-----------------
When you talk about the Note, they need to solve brick bug problems and then maybe think about the latest version of Android. If you look when the ICS update arrived, I wouldn't expect Jelly Bean soon. Even if it comes, it will be crippled by the Touch Wiz.
I guess that CM9 will pack all those goodies from JB 4.1.

Even if it doesn't get an official 4.1, the note will almost guaranteed get cm10. Nice they are at least giving us 4.0.4 though.

Don't want samsung to give us the Jelly beans. I am sure our developers like CM will surely get us one asap. Awaiting for the next release of CM10

What is everyone worrying about? This is XDA! Of course it will

That will be CM9.1 not 10. Android 5 will be CM10.
But yeah, i don't care if we'll get it official from Samsung or not. As long as our developers get it running on the Note, i'm all good.

Upgrade life cycle for Samsung is usually 18 months. The note was released in November 2011.
Jelly bean is being released to developers and operators in mid july, with first handsets and tablet (asus nexus 7) for release around October/November.
I reckon we'll get it as our final update. Pretty certain galaxy s2 is nearing the end of its update cycle around now.

More than possible in my opinion
Who else updates firmwares as much as samsung?
The note was one of the first device to have ice. Samsung do work.
But i guess haters are just going to complain.
2.1 2.2 2.3 2.3value pack updated galaxy s
Was cursed it didnt get ics.
Besides what is the point of complaining on the first day of its release when previous sold nexus phones didnt even get them

EVERY named android update has gotten a +1 CM number. Many of which are .1 updates.
It would be VERY odd if JB was not CM10, and against everything we have seen in the past.

ICS to Jellybean
If the kernel requirements is the same as ICS then Jellybean port should be quick and easy.

Cool! I am keeping up the hope with Samsung. The device has been out for less than a year, I really hope it gets updated officially.

yar I bought grand 1 month before and its a really good device too...but when I saw the spec of galaxy ace 3 even ace which is cheaper device than grand itcomes with android 4.2 then why can't we have that update more over they haven't yet updated note2 or s3 ...think about the money we spend on these devices and inorder to experience new software features we have to wait so long or buy new device is that good ?

100% I agree with you! Samsung brings out new phones left and right just to be able to corner the market! Anyway as I said you don't have to wait for Samsung for updates- THAT IS THE REASON WHY YOU ARE HERE IN XDA! To Take advantage of the (free) MODs of folks like Balliboxer, k2wl, Chuto222, and others who give us S4 features on the grand.

I'm sure our handset can handle 4.2.2 really well.
I've used CM before, on my Galaxy W and Tab 2 7.0, but I still missed the look and feel of stock ROM, so I reverted back and just rooted, and froze some useless apps with Titanium backup. I had no problem with how CM runs, it's really fast and smooth, but it's the bugs that I can't live with. I guess there are some users out there who are like me, and that's why they're hoping for an official upgrade (that we could always root).

I really don't care about Samsung. I'm just waiting CM to be fairly working (at least the 2 SIM) with i9082.

The dual sim source code is still not released by samsung so almost impossible for dev to work on.

I've tried 4.2 on another device and there's nothing there that 4.1 doesn't have, except 1-2 cosmetic stuff in the notification panel.
Touch wiz? A crappy launcher! Third part launcher are much better, highly customizable, icons changing, gestures etc.
Instead of 4.2 it would be much nicer to have a real floating multi windows mod as I requested in the apps and themes sections, cuz this is a REAL improvement.
But 4.2, bah, you're wasting your time guys...

We'll Get the Update.
Now we can do only one thing-
That is to Wait.

There was no official mention of the Note 2 getting an upgrade to 4.3

It seems that there is some confusion on weather the Note 2 was mentioned as part of the handsets receiving the 4.3 upgrade this October.
The only phones mentioned were the S3 and S4. There was no other device mentioned.
Most online news sites have reported this. Sources :
Engadget
Android Authority
Sammobile
Andoid Spin
We will most likely get the upgrade. This is not a Samsung hate thread. I just wanna clear up the fact that the only devices that are covered by the update announcement are the S3 and S4. Samsung is most likely just giving the Note 3 more exclusive time with 4.3 and delaying our upgrades after the sales of their new phablet take off.

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=45329959&postcount=9 :silly:

False , Note 2 is getting
What Engadget reported is not true. Here you go with the official demo by samsung. You can see that Note 2 is getting the 4.3 version by october this year.
http://youtu.be/oMr5gywv0zM?t=3m51s

He says the S3 and Note 2 will receive updates in October. Fair enough he doesn't actually mention android 4.3, but as far as I'm aware, the compatibility with galaxy gear requires Bluetooth 4.0 which is enabled through android 4.3? Not so sure about that last bit so please do correct me of I'm mistaken.
I hope we get the new features of the note 3, I quite fancy the look of the new s note and air command.

Hey I'm glad I read this post confirming N2 is due an update Oct '13. I had my doubts because other threads said N2 update was not mentioned at the unpacking.
I follow your reasoning that the update will likely be 4.3. Otherwise connectivity with the Gear will not be possible. It's been unequivocally stated that 4.3 bluetooth is required - where else would the capabilitycome from? Sammy want us to buy the Gear. It all ties in with rumors Sammy planned skipping 4.2 for 4.3

Yeah, my thoughts exactly. Usually I'd think they would wait a couple more months to let the note 3 sales ride out before updating the note 2, but in the interest of getting the gear out there, they might just push it early.
I won't be buying a gear as its not for me, but if we get an early 4.3 update with the new note 3 features because of it, then I'm so very glad it's coming out!!

It's sucks
A year after the Note 2 was release and Samsung did not updated Note 2
that sucks, many other Devices had the 4.2.2 and 4.3 and im in 4.1.2

Wifi drains my standby battery like there's no tomorrow. No such problem on my Nexus 4 (or any HTC One S).
I sincerely hope 4.3 sorts this problem out.

Plus stock camera and samsung drivers are far beyond any other camera app in the market, CM and AOSP cameras are just pathetic and correct me if I'm wrong but even if S-PEN works in non-samsung based Roms, it doesn't detect the pressure of it.
So I'm still waiting for the update, then the great devs of this forum can do the magic.

Note 8.0 to get 4.3 and multi users

Just got off the phone with the Samsung support, because I was complaining that the Note 8.0 does not have Multi User support. She gave me two bits of information.
1. This device is getting 4.3, but no known release date yet
2. Multi users will be in the update.

That is cool. We have multi user now in some custom roms, however 4.3 would be nice with the enhanced group play features'''

I hope it won't stop at 4.3. We would also love to have 4.4

According to SAMSUNG's update strategy we probably will have to wait a long time to receive Kitkat...

I would take anything purported to be from a Samsung support rep with a huge grain of salt. Having said that, I don't doubt that we will get either or both 4.3 and 4.4 eventually. This tab has only been out for 6-7 months.

unless we get the new note features, i dont see any advantage getting new android. hopefully samsung will work to get us the new note 3 & note 10.1 software features

For me no doubt, that we will get it cause N2 is so popular even after nearly 2 years and Samsung will produce and sell this device surely one more year :good:

I really doubt of an official samsung update.... but let's hope....
Honestly I'd prefere a kernel update on the kitkat release.... and some open sourcing of the exynos ****.... :crying::crying:

Suppose we could hope? Even for KK 4.4.2 or 4.4.3 ota soon?

No we won't get it. It's not the matter of popularity of the device or anything. It's that each manufacturer must provide at least 18 months of support or 3 major updates. We got ourselves 4.1.2, 4.3 and 4.4.2. So yeah, the support for the device is over. Samsung has stop support for S3, so it's our turn now
