No need to sell my note 2 now for at least one more year
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda premium

I wish they release 4.2.2 for us also because I don't think they would release 5 before December. Because they would bloat it by q4 and note 3 would be released by then. So we'll get this in probably December or January.
this is XXXDDDAAA

yeah.... and this will kill whatever little battery life the limping Note2 has now

Note 2 will it's still the reigning king. S4 is just octa and 1080p so nothing super serious because note 2 is super fast and I can't really differentiate between iPhone and note 2 screen.

What does that mean? Are you having battery life problems? Limping Note 2? Maybe something got lost in translation here cause this statement makes no since...

With 4.1.2 ubdll3 I can have 10+ hours of screen on (no game, no 3g only wifi) and I don't think I will move to another version if I can't have something comparable in term of battery life.

this is a good news.ETA for this???

SGS3 not to get Note 2 features

Hi all,
Just received notification from Samsung that the SGS3 will NOT be getting any features like the Note 2 has ie. Multi Window, Popup Note or Idea sketch...Shame as they look awesome hope someone can PORT the apps or the Note 2 ROM
Well, I think it shouldn't be that hard to port a Note 2-ROM to the SGS 3, as they're based on nearly the same specs... Would be nice to see some of those features in a custom ROM though
There are already ROMs with the Note 2 gallery and camera, for example.

indeed but they are problematic for some people, i'd much prefer to see a full ROM port which cant be that difficult as hardware is pretty much identical, although there could be ram issues.
None of features sound that ground breaking. I will stick to the stock ROM + root. Thanks.

What exactly is it that you want to get? The note has a separate sensor on the screen for he stylus so you would get any short cuts or quick notes.
Anything else software related should be available to port.

Sooner or later we will all switch to CyanogenMod when Samsung stops updating our phones and newer Android versions released.
When you feature gets ported people say it's awesome, when it dosent people say it's not that good. :banghead:

Lol, why would they give you the Note's features on an S3? what's the point of a note then? xD
Cmon, you bought a phone and agreed to have what it had at that point of time, heck samsung doesn't even have to update it (the box had 4.0.4 and you agreed to that.
So be happy and stop complaining.
lets not question the validity of peoples need / want for these features, that's just stupid.

I seem to have this feeling that we're not getting these features due to the lack of RAM (1GB vs 2GB).
IMHO Samsung should have really put 2GB into the GT-I9300...
Hopefully later revisions of the GT-I9300 will have 2GB of RAM. Fat chance but one can wish.

Well that depends on how soon it is. Like imagine iPhone 6 is coming out tmr. Will you buy the iPhone 5 now?
Samsung will normally just update 2 Android versions and the update is gone. That is about a year left for Key Lime Pie update I guess. So in the end I really don't mind not having Note 2 features. Plus I don't trust Samsung software features. Samsung is a hardware not a software company.

Galaxy Note to get Android 4.2.2 by Samsung

Another headache...
In 2011, 2012 and this year Samsung brought plenty of Android devices. Today we received, through our insider the first pre-list about upcoming Android updates from the Korean giant.

Really sad that Samsung won't update the Galaxy Note GT-N7000 to Android 5.0 but in my opinion Android 4.2.2 is enough for me. It has the best features i've ever seen and thats enough for me

Jelly Bean is running perfectly on the Galaxy Note for me .. Even better than Ice Cream Sandwich
I am a bit dissapointed that the Galaxy Note hasn't all the features which S4 has for e.x the feature with Tap Top(where you tap on the phone and the list will go up to the top), i think Samsung built an extra Sensor for it which Note doesn't have.
LETS PRAY FOR ONE THING: I hope the Android 4.2.2 isn't using a sensor for AIR Gesture(to swipe pics by hands), i hope the Air Gesture feature is using the normal front camera, so that we could use it too on Note, otherwise i will be very sad and 4.2.2 would be nothing for me because i've never seen a better feature than this, but c'mon, ITS AWESOME!
Peace :good:
It is going to be very, very long wait. Till then let us keep our device cool.

I think there may be another google i/o the next year for android 6.0 if we ever get our 4.2.2.

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.

Anyway, our tablet getting 4.3 makes sense since Samsung wants more of their devices to be compatible with their Galaxy Gear. kcrudup said in a thread I made yesterday that our tablet already has Trim, so I'm not sure what significant benefits we really get from 4.3.

I cant believe how laggy Samsung has been with the updates already. My wife's Note 2, still 4.1, my note 10.1, 4.1. My T-Mobile S4 still has the old 4.2 without aps2sd, that every other major network player got months ago. Just ridiculous. Ive since sold my S4, but with Samsung missing entire versions of updates on their hardware, I have to rethink purchasing from them again.

My opinion is that Samsung is the best OEM for updating its phones. Still no where near the Nexus(not even close) far cry better than let's say HTC. Kinda sucks the note 2 still on 4.1.2 but we are said to get 4.3 and I bet you we will get 4.4 and maybe even 4.5/5.0.
My opinion is the note features out weight 4.3. My biggest complaint is that touchwiz looks ugly compared to the s4 which IMO looks awesome. Oh well gotta love the spen. If Nexus were to make a wacom note sized tablet and added support for spen like stylus be all over it. Doubt it though unless Google and Samsung make Google edition note 3. Then again it would probably be 750+ unsubsidized lol

Not so much this time. The HTC One on Sprint and AT&T already got 4.3, and HTC has officially announced that T-Mobile will get it this week.
my guess is december or next year even.
S4 has just received the official 4.3 update today and S3 will be the next in line.. the note2 is expected to get it by December so the note 10.1 will probably get it at the same time or after..

Oh well gotta love the spen. If Nexus were to make a wacom note sized tablet and added support for spen like stylus be all over it. Doubt it though unless Google and Samsung make Google edition note 3. Then again it would probably be 750+ unsubsidized lol

The Google Edition Note 3 is coming on Verizon. It is already on Samsung's site.
The Now 10.1 really should get the update sooner than December. Especially the WiFi edition. It's probably coming pretty soon. Sooner than we expect it.

Okay so it gets an official stock Android ROM (zzzzz) update early ... My bad. I forgot whixh was whoch between all of the editions and Android versions and niche devices ... /embarrassed
I just can't conceive of a reason anyone would want stock Android on a device like the Note 3? Or any Note for that matter? Just get a Nexus? The stylus and software features will be gone! Isn't that what the Note is about?

Hope we get it soon! Or they are loosing their customers... I already was buying Sony Smartwatch 2 because Samsung says nothing when they update (or not) Note 10.1. Gear wont work until we have 4.3 inside our devices. I quess I will wait a week or two and if there is no news about 10.1 and Android 4.3, then I get Sonys Smartwatch2. Samsung should know that we of all need that update as soon as possible to get Gear working. We are keeping our Notes in bags!!! Why the hell Samsung is thinking that people who wear their phones in pockets need so badly Gear that Samsung updates their devices before our huge Notes?? Ridiculous!

Ok first off, those articles are from March and July, before the real name and version of the next release was announced. Second, just because Samsung said that back then, does not mean the official announcement hasn't changed things. I for one could care less. I love my tablet, with or without 4.3 and beyond. On my phone, different story, but I can still wait. Last time I got excited for an update was my atrix 4g and 3 days before Motorola had confirmed it would happen, they changed their mind and cancelled it. So I take news of updates with a grain of salt and a "if it happens, great, if not oh well" attitude.

Android 5.0 Lollipop

Anyone has any news/rumors about lollipop 5.0 for Note 10.1 2014?

As always samsung uses to upgrade devices that is not too popular in 6-7 mounths after the AOSP release.
Lollipop was announced for Note 2, Note 3 and Galaxy S4 by Samsung Finland.
I have hopes we will get Lollipop, at least I'm praying
Sadly I have lost all faith in Samsung and will not purchase another of their products. I realize it's sacrilege around here but I bought myself an Ipad air 2 for Christmas. Being that I'm keeping the note 10.1 (2014) I'll have a good comparison between the two items.

I agree but there is no other android tablet with s pen in that size and prize range.... next best thing is ms surface but that's something else completely.
The thing is, I use the pen for alot of stuff (drawing plans to rearrange our flat for example ) and alot of friends and family are totally intrigued by it. I can't imagine buying a tablet without pen after this... its a must have feature once you're used to it. Sadly there is no real competition...
Nevertheless I'm almost sure there will be a lollipop update for it reasonably soon (2-3 months). Unless samsung releases a note 10.1 2015 in the next 2-3 months then the update could be even later. But remember even the original note 10.1 got updated to KitKat!
It'll probably never happen...
So sick and tired of samsungs crap support. I am also sick of my Note 10.1 2014 just being "good enough" to get tasks done. I only use lecture notes for this tablet to annotate pdfs. With no lollipop in sight, I'm buying a surface pro 3 at the beginning of next semester to replace this tablet and my ultrabook. If i get real desperate for android, I'll use Console OS. Peace out sammy, if you have no interest in supporting your products, neither do I...

I thought it worth to let you all know that I am using Lollipop on a Samsung Note 2014 10.1(SM-P600) wifi only.
There is a thread on the android original development forum by RaymanFX. Its Cyanogenmod 12 which means its Touchwiz free and KNOX fuse is tripped.
More importantly however its miles ahead of KitKat- touchwiz in terms of responsivenes, snappines and fluidity.
There also is this article http://www.xda-developers.com/android/analysis-of-the-galaxy-note-3-android-5-0-leak/ and if all is well and truly as remarkable with Touchwiz- Lollipop then I would love to see this ported somehow to Samsung Note 2014 10.1(SM-P600) wifi and sister/brother models.
Adding all Apps from Samsung Note Pro 12.2 to such a port would be like phenomenal! I have donated before and would donate again on a project like that.
:good:
This tablet will be updated but it's going to be awhile so relax and enjoy life until then.

If you bought a Samsung tablet and expected much more than 1 update, you're a fool. It's a trade off for superior functionality over the more-update Nexus tablets.

I have a Nexus 7 (the first edition). It received the Lollipop update last year and since then is almost useless due to lags and sluggishness. I also got the most recent update (L 5.02) which they claim it fixes N7 lags, but I did not see any improvement. Everything is slow, browsing is slow, booting takes minutes.
With this experience, I have no rush to update my Samsung tablets to Lollipop
Samsung should think about why their sales are going down... l hope this powerful device will get Lolipop but if not I think Samsung will loose aanother buyeri...
Poslano s tableta (tapatalk)
I guess I'm the only one still happy with my Note 10.1 2k14 edition. I'm running a custom ROM. I use the handwriting and s-pen functions quite a lot and don't imagine that I would be happy without those functions. My tablet still functions fine and is nice and responsive (not as fast as my Note 4, but also not as new). I'm really in no hurry for Lollipop on my device. KitKat runs fast and is stable for me.
It's time for Samsung to wake up. This is a modern world. We pay premiums prices for top-rated Samsung phones and tablets, and expect regular updates. We dont need to beg for the updates. The computing world changes rapidly, and samsung should follow suit. It's becoming clearer that Samsung cannot keep up with Google releasing free updates to free android softwares. It's becoming clearer that Samsung Tizen software will eventually be a useless OS.
Just out of curiosity . . Why is getting lollipop so important that people are willing to sell their tablets in shear outrage?
I've got it on my note 3 and in terms of functionality there is very little difference . . .

Samsung Finland ( or other Samsung's section from Nordic Countries) are know for it's fake news ( e. g. Samsung Galaxy S2 Jelly Bean Update). I advise not to trust them

Beacuse it's fresh, something new. Most people love these kind of things. + it looks awesome
I want it too
I want an s note that doesn't lag all over the place!
Someone should start a thread "I will never again buy Samsung" If they see how many ppl are not happy with support of high-end products and selling pop-crap Galaxy S line, maybe they finally wake up!
