If you like the nexus more than the awesome note 2 you should do that. I love my note even if i have to wait for the update to 4.2.2

If you like the nexus why don't you just put stock android on then... omg you have 4.2.2 like the nexus which has 4.3 atm but at least you'll have the second latest rom. I rather wait than get rid of such a brilliant phone.

Thank you for the extremely useful and important information. This topic was just what we all needed!
Oh, wait, I thought we were in the SII Plus forums.
It's hard to believe that he has been lurking in the forums for 4 years and still posts something so craplike.
One answer to you Goodbye, Auf Wiedersehen, до свидания, Arrivederci - don't let the doors hit you on your back
Who said about any problems with Touchwizard, it's only release schedule, new Android for Note 2 will be released about 2 months after Note 3 premiere. And will most probably be 4.3 and not 4.2.2.

While we are here let's put even more metaphorical wood to the proverbial fire ... even the Galaxy Tab 2 is now getting android 4.2.2.
This is so going to anger people more for no good reason. ( rub hands and smile in an evil way ... )
So much hate for the only other manufacturer that actually does update their hardware for a decent number of Android versions if you exclude the Nexus devices.
Sure they are slow but come on what if you bought an LG or HTC , you would be lucky if your device got a single version upgrade.
we samsung customers are lucky enough compared to other brands that rarely provide updates to their phones. don't worry I'm pretty sure we'll get one sooner or later. if not I'll be selling this and my S4 and get a new one that deserves a love. nevertheless i love this note2. and my S4 but i love this note more

LOL precisely. Go on and get a Nexus FFS. I'm just waiting 4.2.2/4.3 for touchwiz features. Otherwise I might as well flash Cyanogenmod and get it over with meh. All the incessant whining here is just getting annoying. As if lot of other carriers are rolling out updates readily for their older (relatively) flagships.
Thread closed as is frankly useless.
Will our device, the Nexus 7 v1, get the official Androidd 4.4, KitKat upgrade?
I would be surprised (and angry) if not.
It still has more than enough hw resource.
Surely it'll.

Oh hell yeah. Adding on to that statement, you also realize that Android 4.4 KitKat is supposed to be supporting older devices and be hardware friendly. Sure it'll come to the Google Nexus, probably the first devices to receive it too. It might even hit the oldest generation of the GNex as well. I have an S4, but my fav ROM is the Google Edition 4.3 which is what I'm running right now! I've been looking on various news articles about 4.4 and I'm extremely excited for it! Apparently, there's rumors that we're going to be receiving a launcher with 4.4 called "Google Experience". It's not a huge update but there are some subtle UI changes which is what I'm dying to get to use. Hopefully it's all what we're looking for!
:good:
Launch
I read, that launch of KitKat should be today.. Does someone know anything more? :fingers-crossed: can´t wait..
As far as I know, it's a rumor.
You guys know only units purchased on a Tuesday will get 4.4......right?????

I predict the 28th of October. The rumors I've seen suggested the 18th or 28th, but I believe it should be released on a Monday and that would suggest the 28th. Anyone else notice that in recent times Android releases have rotated between Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday? 4.3 was released on a Wednesday so 4.4 should be released on a Monday.

It is and has been a rumor as far as the release date goes. People now would like to say it'll be released on the 28th due to hints on KitKat's twitter page. Who knows. As far as that goes it's all just the media's speculation and none of it is 100% legit.

Safe to assume that we would most likely lose the Touchwiz stuff and S-Pen features? Pretty much go stock 4.4?
some of the under-the-hood improvements in 4.4 are pretty interesting/exciting.
but Samsung is gonna take ages.. probably

I think the Note 2 people are still waiting for 4.3 ...... So I think we'll have a long wait unless you go custom.
Until Note 5 release, Samsung after sale service is horrible. Don't dream about you will get KitKat within a year.

Not really fair to be honest. Every Samsung device I've had got at least 1 major update within a few months of its release. It's the the older devices, ie note 2, s3 that will wait ages or not get it. The S4 + Note 3 will get kit kat by January if history repeats. Also in the past Samsung have denied updates to older devices due to hardware limits, Google are claiming kit kat can run happy on 512mb Ram so who knows, maybe old devices might just get a break (pun intended, sorry )

This.
As always, samsung is super slow with updates, so don't bother in at least 6 or 7 months, and even with that, the note line is never the first one, so probably S4 and S5 will get 4.4 2 or 3 months before the note.
Saw someone quote a samsung rep tweet about them being more concerned about getting most of the older devices to 4.3 first. And about note 3 having to wait at least 2 months for 4.4

on other news, HTC pledges to get 4.4 out to its HTC One in 90 days, Google Play Edition, in 15 days...
would be nice if Samsung could make and keep to a similar commitment
This is one thing, coming from iOS which is absolutely mind blowing how Samsung doesn't give a rats ass about being up to date. Why own a Android device that runs old software 1 month after buying it and not be allowed to update it.

i dont think its going to be within a month but i ve had all the notes so far. i717 original galaxy note shipped with gingerbread(2.3)
got updated to ice cream sandwhich 4.0.4( i believe) and than got updated to jellybean 4.1.2
note 2 was ics→4.1→4.3 coming in next month
the updates come but they are slow......But we do have a secret weapon... XDA woot woot!
I wish it was faster but to be honest doesnt really matter to me since im just gong to mess with
They did sell a significantly larger amount of Note 3's in a much shorter period than previous Note devices. So who knows? We had 4.3 well before the flagship S4...
As for the N2 (and S3) still lagging behind, that's because they skipped 4.2.

To quote Engadget :
Update: There's still no official word on why this is the case, but sources close to the company have pointed the finger at a different hardware issue on the Galaxy Nexus: its Texas Instruments-built chipset. The company is out of the mobile business and as such isn't in a great position to give the support necessary for continuing OS upgrades -- presumably some of those 1,700 employees let go in the shift away from mobile could have helped. Now we'll have to see if the community can pick up where the corporations left off or if this is the end of the road for the Gnex and its other OMAP-based kin like last year's Kindle Fire HD, Nook HD and Droid Bionic.
Seeing as we're talking Samsung devices here, I think we should be ok

The note 2 actually came shipped with 4.1 jb.
I don't really know about the fuzz with updates. It's not like apple pushes em out on a monthly basis, only when needed. Same for Samsung, people should stop whining about fast updates, making them work etc takes a lot of time. If they release it early and there are a few bugs people will whine about that.
If the phone works and it does very smoothly here under 4.3 why do you instantly need an update?
Sent from my SM-N9005 beast of a phone.
Could someone (in theory) create a stock google 4.4 rom for our Note 3?
I know stuff like eye detection and the S-Pen and god knows what else wouldn't work..
AOSP roms won't be out for a while until Samsung gives the community the binary drivers.
Samsung are slow at doing, only in Oct did they release the binaries for S4 6 months after release.
In theory you can download 4.4 and cook your own rom but without drivers from Samsung it won't be stable or certain hardware will not work at all.
If you want the latest and greatest Andriod then you should have brought a Nexus phone.

Ok, so you want to support this fuc..king behaviour of Samsung by buying another phone from them....great idea....
The Note 1 got the 4.1 update around August or June if I'm not mistaken, while the Note 2 released in September last year.
The Note 3 released in September this year, luckily we've seen leaks or I would assume a similar timeline.
Surprising the S3 already has 4.3 rolling out before we do, they've already seen a major update, while all we got was 4.1.1 -> 4.1.2.
Granted, it sold in vastly larger quantities.
Even lower devices like the Grand, Mega have already seen major updates to 4.2.2 in their relatively short lifespan.

Sent from my GT-N7100 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
I remember reading on an official Samsung notice that the note2 will be updated to at least 5, which was expected to be released in October, but 4.4 arrived in its place.
4.4 is designed to work on lower spec devices, which should free up some resources to allow for the resource hungry note 3 apps to be ported over. so 4.4 certainly WILL make an appearance on the Note II. and a high probability of at least one more update to 5.0.
then we can start threads crying about the lack of ported apps from the note4 and note5....
