Why are 4.4.4 updates still rolling out? - Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

As I wait for my N910U to get Lollipop, I've noticed that Sammy is still pushing out 4.4.4 updates to various note 4's.
Does this mean we should stop waiting for lollipop?

ONLY Samsung knows ...

What model are you on? I have the 910F, and installed lollipop manually with Odin.

It paves the way for lollipop OTA

I'm using an N910U (TGY), but I also see the N910C getting 4.4.4 today... Not sure why they are even bothering with 4.4.4. Late to the party perhaps?

Can anybody tell me if I can safely flash this latest firmware on my sim-locked Note 3 N9005? Just checked thr OTA and Kies and something tells me I need to wait for some time to get the update.

So long as the region is fine, it doesn't affect Sim-Lock - I'd just hang tight and let KIES do it's thang man, safer that way
Too bad then. Since I'm in Asia and that firmware belongs to Poland.

On december 1st when you asked the question no Samsung phone had an official Android 5.0 TW ROM, so there was nothing to port.
As you may have seen yesterday (December 3) the first official lolipop ROM whas released for the galaxy S5 in Poland, so there is no way to tell if and when a port is released.
-----> http://www.xda-developers.com/android/official-android-lollipop-samsung-galaxy-s5-poland/
It might be better to wait for an official 5.0 TW ROM for the I9500/I9505.
A Chinese forum has given a build number for the s4 lollipop, so I'd expect the real thing very soon.

Some of us searching the forum for our cyanogen based roms and looking into people's experiences and what might be the best kernel. In my case I recently switched over and have liked it and as such I'm doing just this. With this said, for the love of sanity, can we please have only one of these threads and have someone who is here often search things over from time to time so I don't click into things wondering if a stable leak from Samsung has been released on XDA.

If you don't know how to use a rooted phone, why did you root it ?
If you use Odin you will lose root. If you wanna update from a rooted phone and keep root, you should buy MobileODIN (it's on Play Store). In either case, you have to download the firmware yourself.
However, where have you read that Lollipop is available?

Well, that's not a way to post a thread....as said above if you flash it with Odin you'll lose root as we as using kies, since Lollipop would require of you to wipe your data/cache before and after the update for the phone to work smooth...
is there any performance improvements in it?

How can we know when Lollipop isn't even released....
It is said to bring performance improvements but knowing Samsung I would take it with a grain of salt

was thinking to use other phones as reference ofc, did they get any noticeable performance enhancement even though it might not be the same for the note 4

Guys, there are already at least 2 other threads asking for this. Please search before you post.
It is being worked on and one way or another, someone will get it and post it either in the General thread or development thread if it is a zip by that point. Just like with root, be patient and just make the best of what you have for now; we are all in the same boat and probably want to accomplish the same things :good:

Is the phone running the latest ROM? The stock ROMs are at sammobile.com and you can compare the installed ROM to sammobile.com's ROM files..
