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. Samsung will update the Galaxy S II and Note to Android 4.2.2 but this will be the last update for these devices. This means the Galaxy S II and Note received an update from 2.3.6 to 4.0.4 to 4.1.2 and will stop at Android version 4.2.2. Google is the only OEM which gives so many updates to its devices but Samsung is doing the same now. Below is the list of devices, which will receive the Android 4.2.2 update from Samsung.
But there is more according to the first pre-list, Samsung will only update 5 devices to Android 5.0, which is not yet announced by Google but is expected to be announced at the upcoming Google IO. The devices which will be getting the Android 5.0 update are the Galaxy S III, Galaxy S4, Note II, Note 8.0 and Note 10.1. Our insider finished with saying that plenty of MID-range Android devices of 2012 / 2013 will also receive a value pack update. Samsung did this before with the first generation of Galaxy devices. The insider confirmed Google’s next version is expected to be a big update and Samsung will take some time to update their devices.
Below is the list of devices which is not confirmed by Samsung yet. But is confirmed by our insider.

I read a while back that they are introducing some kind of theming/skinning engine to enable carriers to update quicker, hopefully this engine will enable themers to have a good old hack and play! How deep into ui this theming goes is anyone's guess
This is great to know S3 will get another year of updates especially knowing also the S3 will get all the features of the S4 that do not require new sensor/hardware
Given the money they are making with the Galaxy S series, it would seem a really smart move to invest a small fraction of those benefits in updating the Android OS version, to buy user's loyalty. I still don't trust the source completely, but the strategy makes sense to me.
Ofcourse this is not official so we shall wait and see

of course, this is not official, but I believe its highly likely we will get 5.0
samsung wouldnt kill s3 so fast, specially with a so capable hardware

It would be weird for the s2 not to get the update , cause it has the same soc except that s3 has 4 cores instead of 2...

Seriously...do you still expect s2 to get 5.0? You should be very happy if it gets 4.2.2...it really has similar cpu architecture and that means its still capable of running newest androids, samsung wont upgrade because of age, not capatibillity

Is this a response to the Apple claim that the S4 is being launched with last year's version of Android, that the Android market is fragmented over so many versions and capabilities?

Would be nice if the S3 gets android 5, but it's likely most S3's will have crapped out by then because of the faulty nand.

I have a theory that on each boot the emmc chip plays a little game of russian roulette with our partition structure and format - blowing out the brains of the unfortunate partition that happens to be chosen.
The result of which poor partition got terminated varies from a wipe and reflash upto a hardbrick and warranty repair...
I respect samsung for the S2 updates.
The S2 is a historical phone, it's gone through 3 major updates.
And they are doing the same for the S3.
They took down the whole market with just 3 phones, and now they are looking forward to adjust themselves on the throne with a 4th one.
One thing i can't wait for is the S4 features to play with on the S3.
It's almost confirmed that we will get them, as i see strings of those features in the MB3 leak.
All i can say, good job Samsung.
The only let down of Samsung is their care against the developer community, if they would be more like Sony. I'd never buy anything else than a galaxy device.

It's already confirmed. Samsung said we will get all the S4 features which aren't directly hardware dependent (features which require certain hardware to be there, like the infrared thingy)
Android isn't even completely optimized for Quad Core yet, The Galaxy S3 has at least another year of support left.
I love when a new Android version comes out. It makes our phone brand new for a while. I hope version 5.0 or whatever can fo that for me so I can keep this bad boy another year.

We got a 99% chance of getting KLP because there's no way samsung will update the GS4 only + The GS2 got 4.0/4.1/4.2 and the GS3 got 4.1/4.2(leaked) only so the GS3 will probably get 1 more update after 4.2 which is 5.0.
I am planning to upgrade my Nexus 5 to a Galaxy S4 for better camera performance. But I still want to enjoy the pure android experience that one gets on the Nexus devices. I know I can buy the Google Play edition but its not easily available in my country and is expensive.
So which Galaxy S4 chipset model do you suggest if I am to install the stock Android Jellybean or Kitkat on my S4 - Snapdragon 600 or Exynos 5 Octa?
Also what would be the respective Samsung model numbers to differentiate between the two versions?

To answer your question, because the first 2 replies have no intent to do so, the i9505 has the same hardware as the google edition one. international version: i9505, google edition: i9505g google play edition.
Yesterday, Samsung U.S. confirmed that 14 devices will soon be making the switch to Android 4.4 KitKat. However, there was no mention of when international models would be receiving the KitKat update. Fret not users, as we now have confirmation as to which international models will be getting the Android 4.4 KitKat update. The list is Samsung Poland’s official KitKat update list that was obtained today by Polish blogger Robert Nawrowski. It is to be noted that not all models listed below would be making the switch to KitKat right away. They will move to Android 4.3 Jelly Bean, and eventually receive Android 4.4 KitKat.
Here are the international models that will be making the switch to Android 4.4 KitKat:
Galaxy Note 3
Galaxy Note 2
Galaxy S4
Galaxy S4 Active
Galaxy S4 Zoom
Galaxy Mega 6.3
Galaxy Mega 5.8
Galaxy Grand
Galaxy Express
Galaxy Note 8.0
Galaxy Note 10.1
Galaxy Note 10.1 2014 Edition
Galaxy Tab 3 7.0
Galaxy Tab 3 8.0
Galaxy Tab 3 10.1
The list is identical to the list of models detailed by Samsung U.S., although unlike the U.S. list, it isn’t clear as to when these mobiles will receive the OTA update. Most devices launched last year are included in the list, with a few notable exclusions like the Galaxy Core. It is interesting to see that the Galaxy S3 won’t be making the switch to Android 4.4 KitKat, but considering that it is now close to two years since its official launch, we won’t blame Samsung for giving the S3 a miss.

The article was written on 18th March 2013 but was also linked in a more recent article here
What do you guys think?
I'm guessing that this was written when a lot of the tech media thought 5.0 was going to be Key Lime Pie. Both just wrong obviously.
I wouldn't expect another official update for the Note 8.0. I'm not.
Yeah, I am expecting the next "update " will be a hardware refresh. Watch for something at CES.
I am pretty confident that it won't get any more love. After rooting and going with Flexburst/S5 note app with Aircommand to match my Note 4 (Which is awesome), this will likely fade into obscurity once a replacement presents itself.
Custom Roma is great choice but we still need the updated stock to reach to maximum stability.
stability is important for device like Note 8 since many of us depend on it for our daily work

Did you say "[a]fter rooting..." as in, you have rooted your Note 8 (i467) on 4.4.2?
My note8 is the wifi version 5110 and is rooted 442
Does anybody know what is "Note Pro 8.8"? at http://www.theandroidsoul.com/andro...dule-samsung-htc-sony-motorola-manufacturers/ ?
S3 didn't receive kitkat, so the list is wrong in every way xD
samsung is always very bad to the update things , our only hope is the devs

Maybe they meant Note Pro 8.4...?
Been out of the scene for a while..is there any way to get Lollipop on the GT N5110 or as close to stock as possible.
If anyone could provide a link to the necessary rom that would be awesome! Think I've had enough of this Touchwiz with Nova.
Thanks!
The Note II is officially getting Lollipop, so I think there is hope for our Note 8. I'm under the 10 post limit for posting links, so I can't post one. I'm sure you guys have seen the articles by now.
