There are a few threads about Jelly Bean being here at last for the 7.7, well, as far as I can tell, it isn't. It is here for the P6800, but nothing for the P6810.
Is there a cogent reason for this? Or is it simply another example of the ineptitude and basic incompetence of a company that has grown too large too quickly and is simply rolling on under the weight of its own inertia?
If anyone knows anything about (official) JB for the P6810 can they put me right?
It certainly coming this month, cant you think straight? Once they realease for p6800 they should do one for 6810 cause they arw the same
And the question you should ask yourself is why did you buh p6810 in the first place

I'm still waiting for JB for the UAE..... Samsung has a LONG WAY TO with updating the 7.7 tab to JB. Probably won't see the official UAE rom until next year when Apple Pie is out.

:cyclops: Useful.
Why would I buy a 3g tablet when it is much more expensive and I have a smartphone to which I can tether?
Every so often it is nice to let off a bit of steam. Since the official UK ICS update has only just come through I don't feel too far off the mark on my coments about Samsung and a JB release.

Some of us don't want to spend the extra money for the 3G version, I can easily and freely tether my phone which has GBs of data tht I'd otherwise never really use...
I'm a bit annoyed too, why not release JB for both since 3G has 1 extra feature, just a matter of removing that and republishing it for the P6810..., kinda lazy Samsung...

Oh well...still waiting for p6810 JB...dear samsung...it's really time to update this tablet.
It should have been supported best of all galaxy tab beeing the only amoled tablet in the world and still it rules in multimedia departments and in term of outdoor display visibility and just to remember... It got a FULL rgb display completely no backlighted beeing an amoled plus so it really shines even in term of battery where the amoled advanced need to be backlighted not to wear rapidly...a world of difference

I hope it still comes out soon, because if it doesn't release before september for the wifi version, then there probably is a slim chance it releasing any time after that.

well, I really want to keep this tablet cause of the amoled display ... but it sucks to got still ICS on a so powerfull tablet that could change from night and day from a simple software update...I hope samsung is not going to release another amoled tab and is doing that just to avoid that people keep their 'obsolete' tablets.... I really hope NO... cause the p6800,P6810 are really WELL MADE and they sold them under their real cost of production 'thanks' to apple ban!
if this tablet was not banned by apple crying it could have sold out completely beeing the best made tablet still today ... the thinner one ... the only with a full Aluminum body assembled PEFECTLY!
that's a tablet ... now samsung give us the REAL software to move that thing
They just keep pushing the JB release for the 6810 further out........... Sucks cause I liked the 7.7 alot. But it might just be time to move on!

EDIT 11th May 2013
May be, just maybe Samsung listenened and JB 4.2.1 is here
It took a year for this to happen, which is not good enough for a premium tablet.
Sadly, I don't have this tablet (or any tablet al all), but I maintain no more Samsung for me at least for now.
I hope those who do, enjoy the enhancred performance that Project Butter brings.

As someone who's on the Verizon 7.7 and still on HC, I'm more than disappointed.
I have a feeling that Samsung looks at sales numbers and sees how many 7.7's there are on the market (not many), and then does a cost-benefit analysis that shows that the cost of having developers put time into 7.7 JB development is a waste of money. And it's really their fault that this thing isn't more ubiquitious since it's a great piece of technology, but for whatever reason, they didn't price it aggressively enough and this is where they ended up.
Hopefully we'll have some decent JB ROMs, but at this point, I'm still waiting for ICS.
All we can do it put our disappointment into action - make your next tablet a Nexus, 3G/4G be damned.
I'm on Verizon, too. There should always be a provision to install a stock Android version so if the Touch-wiz modidifcations stop coming at least one could try to update to next Android.
I am perfectly happy with ICS on my Tab. I only count on one upgrade per device. That is alll I have ever gotten on my Samsung and Motorola devices.
We should make our voice heard, because there is no reason for our tab to miss this update.

I use my tab 7.7 with and without WiFi every day without problem ranging EDGE to H+ in reception, not sure about how the modem/baseband fairs in other countries but here in sweden with both Telia Sonera and Comviq/Tele2 it works well.
No lag for me (except with certain thrid party widgets sometimes), been testing a couple of JellyBean ROMS on it and tbh it doesnt make my 7.7 fly or print money or anything like that so i dont really see why, appart from the looks, anyone NEEDS JB except the fact that it looks cooler and that everyone think they need the latest and the greatest for their device... just to let 2 days pass after the update and start screaming about samung sucking "cuz i aint gettin mah kay lame phie"... teah the tab cost quite a few bucks, but it works pretty well as it is.. and if one doesnt like it.. sell it to someone that might like/love it and buy some other "better" brand and start to whine about that one not getting each and every update
That said, i am quite surprised Samsung didnt announce JB for the 7.7, and also the list didnt have more than 4-5 models some month ago, who says that 7.7 wont be added to the list next week/month.. but then again i dont think this model has sold enough for Samsung to spend the money on the update.. yet, plus they have a bunch of new models they want ppl to buy..
Also if you reeeeeally want JB, just root and throw in a custom rom, sitting on this forum its not hard to find a guide on how to do it.
This is really bad from Samsung Tablet premium class not to participate with the official Jelly Bean but others such as GT2 Plus and has a lower hardware and the display. It is a shame but not bad because there are alternatives, such as PA, CM10 or my Nexness PRO and all: 4.1.1
thanks god we've got some rich developers who own this piece of technology
Ps : just kidding, i am also a poor student, but i doesn't matter, cause i really like my big investment

No sir, the point isn't crying about new updates, the point is, did we paid for this to let it run stone age operating system? why in the hell a 5 years old iphone still receive updates and i don't? do you think apple charged their customers more than Samsung did?
to be honest, i was happier with my old (sold) gt p1000 running gingerbread, on this one am waiting for a Samsung human developer to do something about the text size! (because honestly i don't think they used humans to test this before pushing it to the market) not those of xda, they aren't paid for that, and no body should blame them because they are doing us a favor for sharing their work with us. Samsung developers are paid to satisfy my needs, why should I give them a rest?
No sir, if my device is able to run the latest operating system in the market, so i want it, and i want it now.
if they are willing to ignore our expensive devices, ill sell it and get something else (Microsoft maybe?) note that I may lose some bucks, but Samsung may lose the market
as for the wifi, if it wasn't so important, why would I pay 6 times for a simple Kindle ebook reader, at least this one does exactly what it supposed to do without updates
I need to read from the net, that why i need my wifi working on ICS, and then on jelly bean.
and then i want a phablet dpi, i don't care about tablet UI, and if others do, Samsung can add a dual UI, Tablet and Phablet (that what android is, choices)

JB for the Note II has been out for a while now. Note II specs are remarkably similar to SGN10.1 specs. JB with Note II multitasking competes well with W8. The current configuration not so much.
So, open letter to Samsung. Time to push out the JB OTA now! You are going to start losing SGN10.1 users to W8 devices. Get your act together and OTA us dammit. This is a new device. We should NOT be made to wait like this. Pisses us off and just bad business for you.
And if you are delaying us just so your W8 devices can get a foothold you are going to have some unhappy early adopters on your hands.
Get it done.

What concerns me is that we aren't even seeing any new test builds of the JB OTA with all the Note II goodies in them. You would think they would throw a few test builds out before the actual OTA release. Nothing on Sammy at all.
This makes me think we aren't even close.
just an fyi, but us americans aren't seeing some of the note 2 goodies on the note 2 yet. gotta wait on an update - no multiview is one.

We paid the price for the ICS and it has been updated anything else is just yet to come when Samsung thinks it's ready and or the right time for them.
Yes, it's always a good idea to try to put pressure on a company to release software they don't think is ready. I mean, we all know they develop things and just wait and wait for no reason before releasing.

comes to android.

I wouldn't expect JB out anytime soon, with 4.2 out last night Samsung probably has to start with the OS base all over again but if they had gotten to the apps then at least those are a quick copy paste but with less devs working on the S3 and Note 2 version as it is practically out we will probably see the update coming through in December late November unless they give us 4.1 and we wait for 4.2.

After trying to get a straight answer out of anyone at Samsung USA I am not betting anytime soon. If it happens by the end of this year I will honestly be shocked.
After going through the new christmas advertisement, i have a feeling that the update will definately come on or before 25th dec.
I think samsung wants to cash on shopping time, and put in a new advertisement in front of ppl to get that feel good factor for this tablet.
I really don't think they have any other reason to hold this update back from 8013 users otherwise.

That advertisement is posted on the Samsung mobile facebook page. The one they use for international users. If you look at the Samsung Mobile USA facebook page they do not even mention the note 10.1 AT ALL. It is all S3 Note 2 and the tab 2 10.1 It is like the note 10.1 does not even exist.
You would think with all the tech sites that someone could get answer about the 8013 but nothing to be found.

good point. The 8013 and 8010 are basically identical hardware wise, but it seems the 8013 has so many issues, including slow updates and problems with getting palm rejection on ezpdf reader. Had i know all this, I would have definitely gotten the 8010.

So the question remains
So.... With all that has been said the question still remains. Where and when is the update? There was a time, just recently, that you could not turn on the tv without seeing a Note 10.1 ad a thousand times. Now it is only occasional. They have moved on to the note 2.
You would think that with all of the tech sites and tech people that someone would know somebody at Samsung that would have an answer.
Why so silent about the 8013?
Is it an issue with the apple suit?
Are we just spoiled and impatient because we were not first?
You would think someone could figure this out.
It's a great question. You would think that with the 4th iPad, TF 700 as closest competition in the US they would get it out asap. They've pushed their GS3 with JB on almost all carriers in US (correct me if i'm wrong), their Note 2 had JB when released and almost all got the new update with more multitasking, all that's left of their top 3 would be the GN 10.1.
As an earlier posted stated some misgivings about the 8010 and 8013, i thought they were identical in hardware. The only difference methought, was some of the applications that were on the Note 10.1. Part of the reason other countries got the JB update I thought was 1.) They had GN 10.1 released to them before the US, 2.) Had cellular support 3.) Beta test for any hiccups. I've never known Samsung to have huge issues with their updates (except on cellular which is more carrier related and the 1 incident that could essentially wipe your phone with a html link) but i thought maybe some of these carriers made a big stink BEFORE their contract with Samsung saying they wanted JB by [certain date]. I know if Samsung doesn't get it out by that date they get fined or charged per day - but this is all a guess on my part. I can see the new 8020 getting JB before it gets released, because it's newer and has LTE. All i can think is that sadly this time around their wifi didn't get the update 1st.
If there was someway i didn't have to change my csc and essentially do a complete wipe on my 8013, i would upgrade to another version of the JB. If all i have to do is Odin the pda file of the UK version then i'll do it - i am getting anxious as all of us, but i refuse to lose my data this time around (yes i know about TI, i just prefer not to have to do it).
Perhaps we should write to the leaders of XDA and see if THEY can get a response out of samsung and post it on their main page. That or androidcentral. Android central posted when germany was getting the "premium suite" upgrade that it was a slow roll out - which made it seem like it was hitting all the different countries/regions separately and over time. Technically i guess this is correct, but i'm wondering if they just repeated what was written elsewhere or from the PR which didn't explicitly say whether it was just for germany, etc. (Although then the UK received it, etc.)
What us Wifi users are waiting on is when the 8010/8013 suite will be released from us, and so far, thanks to the success of the GN2 and GS3, we are what seems to be one of he last of priorities.

It almost has to be a legal issue with Apple at this point. Portions of the trial are still ongoing so Its quite possible the Samsung lawyers are blocking anything that could fuel the fire, especially since Apple specifically moved to add the Note 10.1 and Android 4.1 to the lawsuit.
Sad that Verizon was faster on the s3 than Samsung was on their so called "flagship" product. Never thought that would happen either. At least I now have JB on something
Then why would Samsung continue to release updates to their US carrier partners such as Verizon with the gs3? The premium suite is essentially the same across the board with except of UI and how its implemented.

Jellybean is out on all major carriers in the US for Galaxy S III now. Really doubt that reason.

I agree. I have the feeling it will be here before Christmas. The only question is whether I am patient enough to withstand flashing the German stock rom in the meantime.

As stated by GSMArena website there will be no Android 5.0 update for Galaxy S2 and obviously should apply to the variants too.
Although this news is leaked from the company's insider, it may be true. This news may be highly disappointing to many. Here's the link. Go ahead check it out.

Honestly, did anyone ever expect Android 5.0 to be officially released for our device?

Thanks for making another thread to tell us. There was a shortage of them.
Extra kudos for linking to gsmarea, rather than the source.

3 major upgrades for a 2 year old phone still put Samsung as one of the better ones in terms of upgrades ...
jelly bean 4.2.2 is definitely the latest that i expected.
the s2 is too old but still good.
morover the most of us will get a new phone very soon because of the contracts.
and this phone will get android 5 or higher in the future.
Gonna upgrade to another manufacturer i think...since the uk galaxy s4 will be a snapdragon based model and not the octocore we were hoping for...key lime pie will be nice.

Still not sufficient. A 650€ flagship should be supported more than 2 years and 2 poor versions. Ics & JB...
Or at least let the community do their job...
I totally agree, and don't understand the attitude of some people here... I didn't buy the phone just to replace it at the end of contract. It's still working perfect and I don't see the need for a replacement. Samsung should just let the community handle the updates if they are to lazy to do it themselves.
S2 till it dies, and when it does, another s2.
Fu*k it, I'll buy a couple s2 when they get 300 bucks cheap here (It's still at 600 bucks unbranded, 400 branded, crazy).

Dude they updated it from 2.3.6 up to 4.1.2 and they will update it to 4.2.2. Some Galaxy devices havent got any update. Just some bugfixes.
I hate samsung for that, but i love touchwiz and their hardware

Ok, chill out now, no need to get sentimental.
I really wanna see 5.0 and what it's all about, I'm somewhat skeptical on the gigant upgrade that would represent against JB.
If a couple of devs make it work with no issues on their ROMs I don't see why we can't lobby up and ask for that update.
I mean, samsung devs vs xda devs...I'm sticking with our troops.
One thing's for sure, if the galaxy nexus gets it, I'll burn tires right in front of Samsung.

that's too bad..
Yes, if Samsung would now release all the sources (required by the license) we could keep upgrading our devices on our own. The S2 community has done a fabulous job, and we would get some disaffected devs back if we had all the sources. This is still a great phone. I'd hazard to say that there aren't many (any?) other 2 year old phones that still run this well on the "latest" software. I agree it might be still going strong in 4 years. Due to Samsung's intransigence however I think my next has to be Nexus. But it's hard to justify giving this up. Despite a faded screen, and reduced capacity of the battery, it still screams smoothly!
Hey guys , I know that we are hardly getting kitkat for our Devices. So now would be the question , will we get 5.0 ? So body read anything about this topic ?

Yes.
Probably in some custom rom based on it.
Yes.
Samsung since the beginning didn't take care about SM-P60x. They could crush IPAD Air with just few tv commercials but they decided to not to do it. And there is few of us who are still amazed by possibilities and disappointed by product support....
If my friend would not buy it I would go for Ipad Air since I believed it is the best tablet on the market or I would buy Sony Xperia z2 tablet since Sony pays extra cash to most of tablet orientated sites to shout that it is no1 tablet with Android system..buahahahaha...
Still they released 4.4.2 XEO yesterday and I am so far happy with new changes which makes it more useful(adding more multiwindow apps and profiles). Wish they made more schemes to SNote and work more on changing hand writing to text function so it will work better and more professional, but I do not believe that they will do anything more for our Note
Best Regards.
Thanks everybody....

What do you mean "do not get"? What's this?
For 601 - http://samsung-updates.com/device/?id=SM-P601
For 600 - http://samsung-updates.com/device/?id=SM-P600
For 605 - http://samsung-updates.com/device/?id=SM-P605
Android devices updates windows is 18 months. So Android 5.0 will come to Note 2014 too. Just need to wait very long time before get it.
@Nik_SV in EU as far as I can tell only Spain has KitKat and since @Hudrator is from Germany he doesnt have KitKat nor do I in the UK.
So he is right we (in Europe) are hardly getting KitKat at the min.

Important for you to wait for the update OTA? What prevents flash firmware to another region through Odin? All firmware is multi-language.

What he said. If my sprint tab3 got kitkat this will def get L
But guys, the tablet isn't even one year old and it is a premium one, not any cheap device from Samsung. I am a little bit worried since it doesn't belong to PRO series but it still has 2014 in its name, it doesn't mean a lot but... Anyway, I honestly think we are gonna get it but arround december or only janaury.
My biggest fear is that only LTE version has cyanogenmod and 3G and Wifi version don't have it.
If it makes anyone feels better .I have had this tab since launch last year...Still on 4.3jb rooted and love it.....Kit Kat sucks ...

I've upgraded to 4.4.2 few days ago and I love it. Finally more apps in multiwindow option and profiles which are very useful for me. Still there is no additional templates to SNote but I can live without it. Hope they will add more one day.
Main problem is that Samsung did not use full potential of this tablet and did not put any marketing effort to make it more popular. This is why we are afraid that just like with accessories we will not be getting more system updates.
Nexus 6 plus 8/9 for me. Out goes 10.1 aand S4.

The Note-series is and always has been about creation and productivity. Good luck trying to replicate that on a Nexus device. Many people here bought the N10.1-14 for consumption which really undersells its value, uniqueness, and potential. To each their own.
The N10.1-14, Pro's, and S' all use the same h/w and with the exception of M-UX being omitted on the N10.1-14 similar s/w. The S' will most likely get 5.0 first. It wouldn't be hard to port the code to the Pro's and N10.1-14 shortly thereafter. With 4.4 having been rolled out months ago for the N10.1-14 and N10.1-12 it's hard to believe some regions are still on 4.3. But it's hard to believe the almost two-year old N10.1-12 got 4.4 at all. So who knows what any specific device will get or when. My personal guess is that the N10.1-14 will get 5.0 primarily because of its commonality with other device definitely getting it. Timing? Who know. Time will tell.
