I want to troll hard to samsung because of ICS. They lost their best customer. 8-10 people brought samsung android devices because of me.
I will get a xiaomi mione or never android again. Microsoft releasing updates regulary. Stupid apple too.
And look gingerbread. Samsung cutted some properties from froyo to release gingerbread too. GPU drivers just sucks on gingerbread. There is no daily briefing now. Ram is smaller. Radio is mono. Why?
Now wifi drops problems (phone fc fixed new). Etc etc..
Now I can't make my phone working because of samsung. Cyanogenmod has small bugs which I need for now. Now what will I do with my powersgx540? I want to swear hard to samsung!
Why stupid xperias (even more and more and more and most bloated phones in market!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) gets ics?
If samsung was a man, so they must release a vanilla ics to their flagship phone! Just for respect to 20 million users!
AM I NEED TO BE MORE RICH THAN APPLE FANBOYS FOR USING LATEST ANDROID?
I´ve postet on Samsungs G+ Page ...
Here you can see what a few Nerds can do in a few weeks! This was my last Samsung Device!!!

I am checking my new note 2014 edition for software update (kitkat 4.4) but it says there is no new updates available, while it currently runs jelly bean 4.3.
I got the Kitkat update already in my note 3, I live in Egypt
Any advice please?
Just make like me! Update manually for yourself.
Go there for example: http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/
Download your firmware and follow the instructions to flash it.
I have my Note 10.1 2014 with official 4.4.2 with this method.
Cheers
Since they are releasing it to 2-3 countries per month, possibly you have to wait another 6 to 300 months. Patience my friend. Samsung is working hard for us!!!

Not really, my stock p605 4.4.2's battery life is running the same or even better than stock 4.3. Also my Note2 LTE running OmniROM 4.4.4 also has excellent battery life, so your statement about kitkat will kill battery life is not true.

Damn you Samsung - been waiting to get update on my UK P600 long enough! Despite all its nice features its going on Ebay as soon as the next larger screened Nexus tablet is out. I thought the slow updates wouldn't bother me when I ponied-up for the premium price and that the multi window and digitizer would compensate for it but instead I prefer to get shiny new os updates (official ones) more ?

I agree with cmit37 - what is Samsung up to? Been seeing messages that it is coming any day since begin of the year - now late July and still no KitKat
Considering 4.3 works fine with same performance and sd card writes work, seems no KitKat update is a good thing. I'm staying on 4.3
Me too, my first & last Samsung tablet.
Their update policy is 5Hi7 and I am now looking very carefully at ditching both Samsung Tablet & Phone for an Ipad & Iphone, because of this. It's fecking naff.

You are completely deluded if you think that. If they were they would have had the updates for this tablet done & dusted by now, they haven't!
They're too busy looking at 2015-2016's tablets & once they've got your money they don't give a feck!

Yeah, I'm finding myself thinking about the rumours of a large iphone. A big screened iphone and an iPad would be a nice combo especially if you find slow or non existent updates annoying. If I'm thinking it others will be doing it.

true
it's messing arround with my battery life
I've considered installing a firmware from other contry
Would that be ok?
So all we need is an update for Note 2 so we can get a TW port. Perhaps this port could be more stable than KK. So the question is, when is the 5.0 official update for Note 2 will come? Are there even rumors for an update for the note 2?
Android Lollipop will most likely be even less hardware-hungry than kitkat. So I see no big problem in bringing it stable to our device.
aosp lollipop - yes, if it will be ported or support for s3 by cm will continue, that would be awesome
Android L is like windows 7 and 8, similar but better performance
we can dream ! no

I want to think so, let's wait
Sorry for coming around with such a negative approach but do you really think that we'll get Lollipop after KitKat was cancelled? That seems to be unlogical, especially when we think about the update policy of Samsung.

Hi!
I don't think that S3 will get Lollipop directly from Samsung (I think nobody expect that), but I expect that will be technically possible, hardware could running it and developers try to port the update for this device.
From Samsung, I don't expect nothing.
what i really hope is that android 5 won't need a kernel update.... or we will be stuck with an unworking cm12
By the way, can you guys explain me how project volta works? will it come to other non-nexus devices? thanks
I need touchwiz based Android Lollipop with blend of s5 and Note 4 features. Will it be possible in future?

You saw a news which is dated at march 2013, are you serious?
There will be no touchwiz based lollipop for SGS3. If we're lucky, EXTREMELY lucky, some exynos 4 device may get lollipop, like Note II got kitkat, and somebody may port it, but this is THE BEST SCENARIO, considering the fact that Note 2 got KK and we didn't, and Samsung policy, we may NOT be that lucky. I doubt that any Exynos4 similar device will make it.
You'll have more luck waiting for CyanogenMod, Omni or similar AOSP ROMs, but be prepared for issues, I already have some sneaky tests going on .
I fear that it will be the KitKat thread all over again with rumors, screenshots of "test reports" and whatnot.

Well, kitkat was made for devices with 1gb of ram. Rumors says that android 5.0 is going to be for devices with 512mb of ram(or even more). So chances are that we could skip kk and go directly to L. But this is based on rumors only.
Not likely mate. As far as Samsung is concerned our device is obsolete.

The Note 4 came out about the same time as Cm12 came out. So, there's no Cm11 for the Note 4 and it would take a lot of time and effort to make it. So like everybody said, since Cm12/lollipop is out, why would anyone want cm11 ? It wont ever come to the Note 4.
CM12 Snapdragon is still in Alpha. We're working on the last feature that's still not available: UHD video recording. We already got it working 100% correct in FV-5 cam, got it working in opencamera since yesterday (however still not 100% perfect, it initializes with a black screen but after that everything works fine) and got it recording in the lollipop stock cam, but it's garbled up (found the problem already). But it's good progress, so I'm expecting results soon.
Then, if that last feature that wasnt available in Cm12, has become available, I think we can call it a betaROM. After that we will focus on fixing and improving current features. However, looking at how extremely fast development for Note 4 snapdragon has gone (in a few weeks from nothing to a ROM that has almost all features working) and that some very gifted, dedicated and talented devs like @fattire and @slayher are working on it, I expect a rock solid stable build before the end of Q1.
About Exynos, I dont know. People just started a donation fund to get a dev an Exynos Note but seriously, Exynos are generally (way) more difficult to develop for, since most of the stuff is closed and generally most devs buy Snapdragons. And you need at least like 3 good and dedicated devs to get things going in a reasonable timeframe, it's just WAY too much work for 1 dev alone to get to a stable build.

Completely okay with this. I went with the n910c, because I have heard that it is easier on the battery, and is actually faster. Plus that glimmer of hope that it will get 64-bit. Custom roms are cool, but I can wait.

Look at the T-Mobile Note 4 forum, there are many, many custom Roms and Lollipop Roms. It seems the N910F version is being left behind in development as most devs seem to have the T-Mobile version . Incidentally, the Note 4 is only around just over 2months old, it was released at the end of October.

910F is not being left in development at all. Development is common, only difference is the modem and that's solved already, so EVERYTHING that we're developing is done for all versions of the snapdragon. Like, I've been working hard with Slayher and Fattire the last weeks to solve the last issues, like getting NFC up and now 4k recording (working on FV-5 and opencam already now with our latest patches, and hopefully stock cam soon too). I dont have time (nor will) to release nightlies, preaper has been doing some, I think he will continue. If not I will see if I can release something at least twice a month. Or, alternatively, compile it yourself, it's not hard at all, especially if you know some programming you should be able to do it.

This is just nonsense, it's not out 4 months, it's barely out 2 months. We've gone from NOTHING to a ROM that has ALL features in under 2 months, I think that's a tremendous accomplishment. And that's mainly due to @slayher and @fattire, these guys have been working around the clock almost every day, from morning to night, I think they deserve some more respect,it seems you don't have any idea how much (unpaid !!) work all this has been. I only played a very small part in it and I've been working weeks myself already, putting in pretty much all of my spare time for the last month.
You see, this wasn't just a 'port' to a new device. It's been a port to an operating system that Samsung itself even hasn't released (lollipop), so that made it extra hard. If it's a port to an existing system, you can just compare logs from the existing TW to the CM logs. But since in Lollipop a lot has changed, that wasn't possible for a lot of stuff.

Oh and btw, I just shot my first UHD video using the stock cam
Samsung has released Android Lollipop 5.0.1 today, first in Poland (SM-910C). Samsung seems to be using Poland as a test ground, hoping users will bring up bugs and battery life problems so Samsung may release a fixed and near perfect software to the widespread community. Now, it's a waiting game until it reaches OTA for Verizon Customers. Reaching root may be difficult on Lollipop 5.0.1, even impossible as far as we know. Besides the fact and enjoyment of root, stock TouchWiz incorporated into Lollipop on the Note 4 will be by far the best OS of and across all Android devices.
Near perfect? You sound very optimistic. Best os across all android platforms? You sound very very optimistic. But I do hope you are right.
I have been surprised on how much I have not missed Root. I just came from the S4 MDK and had CM12 on it. Really do miss Lollipop, but I really do love this phone. Sad to say though, with Verizon it maybe 6 months before we see Lollipop.
I think we'll get Lollipop before mid-March. VZW got it out very quickly for the S5 so I believe that they are working on it now.

If Samsung did get lollipop on the retail N4 soon and it was rootable I would actually use my upgrade and get the N4. Currently still using a rooted N3 and honestly very happy with it, but the temptation for a rooted N4 with lollipop would probably be too much.

I just hope they have de-touchwizzed it a bit so we can enjoy all the bliss of Lollipop. If nothing else add a AOSP theme in the settings. Give us the option. I think Samy would sale a lot more phones if they gave the users a theme option. I don't see it happening though.
