Note 2 TW 4.4.2

After the release of the note 3 with android 4.3 software most of the galaxy devices got updates to 4.3 as well...
Now with the official release of the 4.4.2 software for the note 3 and the leaked 4.4.2 for the S4, do you think there is hope for the note 2 community to receive that update too?

Why not: Cool:

Because it took us a year to receive 1 update.

In my opinion or some leaked news...this time we will get official 4.4.2 at last feb or march..
But seeing we have still great devs like Tamirda; Team Electron; Hurrican team, Dr ketan I hope we will star to taste kitkat at february... means after more 2 or 3 weeks we should start recieving 4.4.2

Great , thanks

Why not. Our beloved N7100 is still a middle-high end Phablet. I'm sure we get it in a few months.

I hope so. The 4.3 roms use alot of ram :S

Software Update

Hey guys,
Do you think there will be a software update by July 24th that will block root? My upgrade isn't until then . I won't get a phone if I can't root it so it would be a shame if an update is pushed.

you should be fine. even if there is an update stores wont have phones with the update on them for months.

That's true

Haven't kept up, but if it is GPE it is possible. Don't discount our DEVS--:good:
Also, won't it be 5.0. Think it has been seen on S5--
Several sites talk about this, here's one--

Gpe in my opinion aren't as stable. They lack USB mounting and other details. I don't doubt our devs. It's just they GOD DAMIT I HATE LOCKED BOOTLOADERS!!

I know GPE has a couple flaws--but 5.0 will get here--

Are we at least any closer to an exploit or unlock at the bootloader?

Saw a thread on it by muniz-ri, I believe. But not close--imo

I read something about someone having a hack because he supposedly hack the moto something and the hack also applies to s4 and s5 bootloader . I just don't know when he feel like it will be a good time to release it lol

Android Lollipop Ports?

Saw that quite a few devices like the SIII Mini and Xperia L were getting Android L ports and was wondering if any devs were planning to make this happen for the S4? A Samsung update to L is supposed to be released soon but I want that Google feel lol.

[Q] Will this device get CM 12 support?

Sent from my C2105 using XDA Free mobile app

Maybe. I dunno.
Sent from my XT907 using XDA Free mobile app

Okay, because I have a low range smartphone (Xperia L) which already has CM12 support, not officially but the actual version has no bugs.. Is it possible to port the rom?
Sent from my C2105 using XDA Free mobile app

It is possible but the chip set makes it very difficult. We may never see it much like the tab 3 never saw cm11 fully working.
Sent from my XT907 using XDA Free mobile app

Is it because of the marvell chipset? If so will the 8" and 10" variants get it because they are not marvell?

Yes, it is because of the Marvell processor and yes the 8 and 10 inch are more likely.

Ok thank you for the info. Hopefully we get cm11 on the 8.0 and 10.0 atleast seeing as I own the 8.0
