we know android 5 KLP isn't about to be released but 4.3 is almost ready, it runs on the 9505 which has almost identical hardware as our one
If 4.3 is out in the wild for the GS4 GPE what's to stop a leak for the One? I kind of believe the rumor that the phones will ship with 4.3.
I hate the new camera interface personally.

Trying it out on my one today, I much prefer it to the Sense camera app.
Nothing to do with the HTC One, and links to the camera app are all over the HTC One forum. Thread closed.
Sony has confirmed that the Xperia™ Z will get the freshly announced Android™ v4.3 Jelly Bean
Are you happy.
Note:
No any exact date that when it will be available.

Really? They have basically confirmed that they will be providing the next version of Android to the Z instead of just abandoning it in favour of supporting the newer flagships that are releasing soon.
Seems like good news to me.

The fact that it will be released at all is good news. I have great patience regarding updates as I waited over a year for updates with my last phone (LG Optimus 2X).

I've had the device only a couple of months, and it's gone from .434 to .253 to .307 to .423 in just that short space of time. So I feel optimistic

Seriously??? Good news???? The Z was always going to get 4.3. Not getting it would have been disastrous.
It's a question of timing. When? This year? Next year?
The Z right now, more than anything else, needs a flipping update to sort out this buggy 4.2 crap laggy Rom.
Sometimes, I feel it has a mind of its own. I regularly pull my phone out of my pocket to discover strange goings on like mobile data off, Bluetooth on, so many apps open.
It's like it goes totally berserk sometimes.

dunno, i want to be happy, but i'm UK unbranded, so still on 4.1 and still 2 full updates behind the rest of the world.
The chances of getting 4.3? um how about somewhere between zero and none!

But is is so easy to update to a Global 4.2.2. You are on XDA, that means you are not the average Joe, update with the tools the people over here provide us with.
Must whining and complaining infest every thread regarding updates? Even when good news is announced, the usual suspects surface to moan.
It's getting seriously boring now. If you're not happy, sell your phone and move to another manufacturer.

The slow and bad updates what we are unhappy with.
My wife have S4 and she get 3 ota updates within one month,seriously i don't know what they fix in this 3 updates cause the phone was very good without it.
Imagine that we are going to get 4.3 after 4 months you will still happy?
Sent from my C6603 using xda premium
Sure. The phone works fine without it. Just like it worked fine when everyone had the pitchforks and torches out because they thought Sony were taking too long over the 4.2.2 update. Look how rushing them then worked out. I would have waited longer to allow them more time to work out the slight kinks with 4.2.2.

Works fine for me. I did a 'dirty' update via PCC without any wipes. I only suffered slight lags in the stock launcher, so I swapped to Nova.
This isn't my point anyway. Any time updates are even mentioned, the same people appear to whine about the same things over and over. Complaints about 4.2.2 are nothing to do with this thread in any case.

Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk - now Free
I personally believe that they should now stop working on 4.3 and work on 4.4 as & when it releases. We have already got a very stable leak for 4.3 and with mods it wouldn't be too long when it looks and feels like the final build.
As I see it....is more an assumption from sammobile than a samsung confirmation. But I really hope for this to be true. I will buy a note 2 soon....and I want to see 4.4 officialy on my note.
I bet Note 2 will get 5.0 just wait

I dont see any reason why the note 2 SHOULD NOT get the 4.4 version. It can even handle android 5.0 in the near future.
By looking at S2 history, we should get even 5.0... Because S2 started with 2.3.4 and ended with 4.1.2.... it got 3 major updates.. but in our case, we started with 4.1.1 and still are in 4.1.2 officially... so 4.3 will be first... 4.4 will be second and 5.0 will be final I believe.

We already have 4.3 leaked and probably soon the official version would be rolled out. So what exactly are whining about? How many devices that were released along with N2 got prompt 4.3 update? I mean Nexus aside. Has Xperia Z gotten the update?
I'm just sick of seeing this crap. Samsung still has to develop 4.3 on touchwiz framework, which has a hell lot more features than rest of the customized firmwares.
Sure thing will get it but the idea when lol. They can confirm will get even android 6.8 but the idea is when :sly:

Yeah sure. They failed to get 4.2 out of the door, they pulled 4.3 so we are still waiting for an update over a year after the last update, 4.1.2.
I really look forward to see how they will fail to release 4.4.
I have it on good authority (glass orb) that they also plan to try a release of 5.0 which, as all previous updates, will fail to materialise. If I just wait long enough, I am sure I will also witness the non-release of 8.0...
Note 2 will get the 4.4 on April 2014, same with the S3. S4 and Note3 will get it on January 2014

Ha ha ha!! Oh dear, you are so very wrong my friend. At least your optimistic. :good:
Like a number of other posters I don't see the point in waiting for the original Samsung updates. By the time we get 4.3 official, 4.4 is out. By the time we get 4.4 the next iteration will be out. Even Sony, who seem to be on the ball, just get an aosp rom working in their device and then release it to devs to build the rooms - so for me, its custom ROMs all the way!
Now that this rom is released, does anyone have any idea how long something like this would take to port over?
I'm not sure if it's an easy thing or not. I know AOSP was pushed almost same day, albeit being buggy.
I'm pretty excited to get the update on my AT&T phone, however I don't remember how long it took for the 4.3 to be released for regular models.
For anyone who hasn't seen it yet.

Awesome! That's where I got my 4.3 GPE rom, thanks for the update dude!
I'm not an expert on this, so someone correct me if I'm wrong.
By what I understand, the Google Edition ROM runs with little modification on the AT&T S4. The main hurdles are with the kernel, which has to be modified slightly to run on the AT&T S4. Once a developer is able to modify the kernel to run, porting the rest of the ROM over shouldn't be a big deal. The developers are pretty brilliant and quick on this stuff, so I imagine you'll be seeing ports of the GPE ROM here pretty soon.

Basically. I mean, there isn't a significant difference in the hardware between a normal Samsung S4 and a Google Edition S4, except the LTE chips used for retrieving signal (depends on your carrier). So that being said, the kernel shouldn't be a big deal and the ROM shouldn't be either. I'm really hoping to use Kangakat as soon as it's released, I'm a BIG fan of Kangabean and have been using it along with Omega ROM with dual boot. Can't wait for this! Thanks for the good news! It's about time!

It will be interesting to see if the 4.3 will fix all the "bugs" from the 4.2 update. I have downgraded to 4.1.2 since I need full screen / correct aspect ratio on MHL, real Tablet UI, and there were also quite a few language/UI errors in my region.
