Does anyone know about Kitkat for our note3?

I see that the note 2 is getting it's first update!!!!....since it's been out ....and I am a little bit worried about the rollout of an official version of kitkat.
Also has any heard about current developers working on a kitkat rom?

Kitkat rom isn't possible without a leaked TW rom to begin with.

Why so eager? Touchwiz hardly resembles stock Android anyways. Flash player won't ever work with Kitkat. All our recent dev work would have to be redone.. right now is there one good reason we should be itching to get the 4.4 update?

yes

I'm not itching for kitkat....In fact I don't know what the major update is(in kitkat). But the time it took for the last note to receive a update was a year. I've never been on one version of android that long.
So that prompts question are developsers working with the kitkat source on the note while keeping our touchwiz?

kitkat does not excite me that is all you need to know..

We can't flash kernels (yes I know you DE guys can but good luck seeing much development there) so there will be no kitkat without a Samsung leak. AOSP source does nothing for us at all.

I just want 4.4 for google wallet to actually work

So the Google Wallet that I installed from the play store doesn't work? It seems to launch fine, there are very few places here for me to test it or though.

Thanks, I wasn't aware of that when I posted, I started to research it and I thought that's what I read too but haven't tried to use so didn't know fir sure.
I guess it's more of a Verizon thing that they blocked the function to make you use their service.

Nothing has changed. We don't have KitKat (4..4), at least us with consumer versions don't. Until we do, or someone figures out a work around, no "tap to pay" Google Wallet.

The whole point was that Google Wallet didn't support the new secure SIMs, Now they do and its just a matter of time before someone ports it over.

I may be wrong, I'm no Dev, but the way I understand it. It's not so much Wallet supporting it as it is the OS itself. 4.4 supports the host card emulation ability and Wallet was updated to use that ability. I hope I'm wrong, but that's my understanding for what it's worth.

I hate to be the guy who keeps raining on the parade, but I wouldn't count on our VZW variant getting updated in January. The international version, maybe, but the only way we'll get KitKat by then is if Hashcode or someone cracks the boatloader or Hash gets Kexec working. Just my opinions, of course.

Is ther gonna be any lollipop update to 910H at all? Or we have to wait

Guys i started to suspect that lollipop is not gonna make it to this model 910H? Do you guyes have any information? I mean technically samsung could just update the modem on C version and make it H version but why didnt they do it?

i'm tired of waiting, I'm starting to think about flashing a custom one! but you gotta wait, im pretty sure they will release it at some point, soon i think!
BTW: what is exactly different in between exynos models(like C/S/L/K/U/H)? just wondering! i assume its just radio software or...?

I think the only diffrence between them is the radio as long as you keep the radio file untouched then you are good to flash any custome tom for other exynos variants . And i will wait till the update appears but really shame on samsung we paid 800 dollars and we are still months behind people who paid 200 dollar for moto g got lollipop samsung needs to have a good customer service people who pay 850 dollar expect top quality service not a bunch of leaked roms that are merely stable and by the way touchwiz is bullsh**t its a stright crap out of the box

patience, grasshopper. all variants will be getting it by end feb/beginning march at the latest.
maybe we will be really lucky and get 5.1 instead of 5.01+patches which the other variants seem to have.

There was an unfinished leak for the T-mobile version of 5.1.1 but nothing for 925F yet,
if you follow the link on the right side of what you have posted, the story attached to that was posted on April 15th and it says to expect it Q3 2015, so I think this just means that they know its being built by Samsung and is all speculation (although I think it will be out within the next month, fingers crossed)

Not quite. It will be announced and come out somewhere between September to November or whenever a new Nexus is released!

Hope the update sorts out the ram use as mines always up to 88% plus, some people say its the memory leak with lollipop but my nexus 6 running 5.1.1 uses about 31% when on home screen not sure why my edge uses so much even thou its got the same apps running as my N6....

Memory leak is fixed on 5.1.1, that's why there's so much diffetence, since it runs 5.0.2.

Android Marshmallow Discussion

In case you didn't know, T-Mobile has just confirmed via their support page the list of devices - Note 4 included- receiving Android 6.0 in the upcoming weeks/months.
https://support.t-mobile.com/community/phones-tablets-devices/software-updates#tmoSUPDocTitle
Thanks,

Awesome. So we'll probably get it by 2017.

Probably about the same time as Android Nougat is released.

Don't you mean Android Zeppole?
Wait... So 5.1.1 was/is being slipped over?

Wow, so really when did T-Mobile fall way behind Verizon as the worst carrier for getting out updates? It used to be Verizon was far worse then all the carriers for getting out updates. I wish Sammy would just make there phones with Vanilla Android and the Spen and features work on those Kernels. Imagine CM with a working Spen suit?

How soon can we expect to see custom Marshmallow ROMs for our devices based on the ASOP Nexus Marshmallow ROMs?

So another 6ish months before we can hope to have an update. Skipping the one we know works. Hopefully Marshmallow isn't nearly as bad as when lollipop 5.0 landed. T-mobile is just about worthless for updates.

Yes, my understanding is that both will receive the update.

Its in Phase-1. T-mobile will take 4-5 months to test the software with their crapware, then it will be ready for us .

lol I feel your pain. I feel that way. But I'm actually one of those guys that hates battery drains and such so i never ever take a major update untill its been out awhile and i know there aren't issues. That's why I'm still on 4.4.4 running Hyperdrive RLS3 cause 5.0.1 i constantly hear the battery is noticeably worse on 5.0.1 then Kit Kat.
So Updates aren't crazy important to me, it's easy for me to just sit back and wait.

BaHumBug! We, Tmobile customers, should have already learned the lesson by now that this only means a 6-7 month wait for 6.0 (possible bugs too) and most will move on to different phones/carriers by then. I love my Note 4, I think it is still a great overall phone but Tmobile sucks with updates.
Also can't wait for those that will come to this thread lets say about 2-3 months from now that will ask "so did 6.0 come out yet?" or "Any news on 6.0?".

If this article is to be believed, there seems to be a certain Note 4 missing from development by Samsung....
I'll give you a hint... It starts with a T and ends with a Mobile.

Ahah much hard work :silly: , for me Samsung not respect the ETA . Marshmallow it's released about much months .
And the performance it's a bit faster system, Samsung does not take care of performance and everyday use , he think only with the graphics & ui . And who tell it's fast and much battery drain , for me not tried the Nexus Phone's .

It was being spammed by some guy who thought it was funny to keep announcing he had just got the ota. For what it's worth, it would be good to have a thread where we could check in and see it had actually arrived somewhere. This one will work as good as any.
