Well, the thread title says all.
I'm not a developer and don't know if will be easy or not.
I ask for the experts, it will be easy for we get Note2 updates from the Note 3 or it is a different hardware and cannot be used the software from it?
Thanks
No, the update isn't from anther model, it's from Samsung,I mean, if Samsung want give it for us, it will be very very quickly, but Samsung do not want, because if note 2 get 4.3 too quickly, some people well not to but the new one. All about marketing.

The device it is the easiest to port from is the Note 8.0 I think. They are very similar. Almost identical.
Though its still hard..
why is mod locking up all Note 3 threads?
Because they don't have anything to do with the Note 2, what is also considered as "off-topic" in a section dedicated to the Note 2.
To OP. Why do you bother even think about this?! As soon as Note 3 comes out you'll get an update. These threads will get locked soon.

Note 3 have nothing to do with Note 2? What?
Note 2 has several variants but none of their roms can be ported/flashed to either device..so Note3 rom will no way be ported to Note2
Also Note2 will get update after months of launching note3(because of their marketing policy-no need to explain)

I think that my next phone will not be a Samsung. When i bought i choose it because Samsung said Note 2 was getting all the updates till Android 5.0, so i thought that they have good update policy (my previous phone was a motorola defy, and same thing there, no updates).
And about the "As soon as Note 3 comes out you'll get an update" citation, i think your wrong. Samsung is pushing everyone to buy a new device and not to make a good update policy for old devices

Oh, c'mon. Of course they wan't you to buy their newest device!! That's business 101!! What do you complain about? For companies doing marketing?! And we don't even need to discuss wether the Note 2 will get future updates or not. Given that even the S2 will get (or got?) 4.2.2 (delivered with 2.3 and got updated to 2.3.6>4.0>4.0.4>4.1.1>4.1.2) that's 6 updates including 4.2.2!!! Evene if it'll be late, im pretty sure it'll come.
what's wrong with buying new phone? You're getting both a hardware and software update.

Yeah, consumption is always a good thing. Says Mr. "FinancialWar". Pun intended? :laugh::laugh:
When S4/S3/s2 ROM can be ported in galaxy s i9000 then why not note 3 ROM/features ported in note 2
ancient galaxy s i9000(s1) has more 4.3 custom ROMs than our note 2

Kind of stupid comparison isn't it?
would you rather use i9000 with 4.3 rom or Note 2 with 4.1.1 rom??

No, its not stupid comparison .
I am using boht of them
but you did not get the point. did you?
I was saying that when JB 4.3 can be ported in old galaxy s with limited hardware and RAM then we can expect 4.3 for our note 2
It's called software optimization. ..
Not easy. .
And the note 3 is getting new s pen features in 4.3. . So Samsung does not want to release those features to note 2 before note 3 is launched.. plain simple. .just got to wait .

I am thinking of buying an samsung galaxy tab 3 7 inch, but i wonder for how long the tablet will be supported. Do you think it ever even gets KitKat? As far as i can see, there are not even 4.3 roms out there Do you think this will change and will Samsung provide Official updates?

personally, if you can a few bucks, I would get the 8" model. but if not, i don't see the 7" getting kit kat. I would wait for the 2014 model.
Official support notice for gtab 3 7 with Kitkat should be here in a little while. I think the Sprint devices got their updates first already.
Is there any news when samsung tab pro will receive Android L?
It's confirmed it will be getting Android L
Tab Pro 8.4

So a rumor about a historically sketchy company when it comes to updates.. Yeah, I wouldn't hold my breath for a quick update. If one ever arrives it will likely be months if not half a year. By then, Lollipop 5.1 or 5.2 is probably out and it's already outdated again.
Yeah I have a Galaxy Note 10.1 gt n8013. The official firmware for that is still 4.1.2 there was a big announcement for kit Kat for the note it said "select carrier variants" well that was true. It wasn't a carrier variant and it didn't get selected.

Yeah, I would say there is a reasonable chance of Lollipop, likely after Mallomor has already been announced.

Me too, using touch wiz or my third party launcher I see no difference in anything ...isnt there a folder somewhere showing latest updates / downloads ?
http://pic.youmobile.org/imgcdn/samsung_lol_eta_phones_list.jpg
What do you think how reliable is this source? According to this sheet we will get 5.0 in march to april.
Samsung has hell of a lot work to do. Because they have uncountable number of midrange devices. :laugh:
S4 Mini, S5 Mini, Galaxy A3, A5, A7, E5, E7, Grand 2, Note 3 Neo to name a few.
But certainly S4 mini and s5 mini will get in 2nd quarter of this year. :good: Once S6 is launched world wide.
http://www.androidsilverprogram.com/2014/07/List-Of-Smartphones-Getting-Android-L-update.html
At the bottom of the page is a list including the S4 Mini as well.
Although I still haven't received the 4.4.2 update in my region yet
Hoping for good things though :fingers-crossed:
Waiting........
Yup. Been checking every month this year and I haven't seen anything promised later than April. So it's crunch time! Really hoping it'll happen soon, I'm terribly annoyed by the limitation apps have writing to the sd card in any location other than their own folder. You all think that this will be different in lollipop?
i hope we get the 5.1 version straight, because 5.0 has issues
I hope this update.
Otherwise, i choose another manufacturer after years with Samsung.
I gave up the S5 Mini after realizing that has problems such as low-quality recordings (sounds captured with mic) compared the S4 Mini and the camera gets to be lower.
If this update happen I stand with Samsung and I will try a S6 Mini . Otherwise i give up Samsung.

S5 mini is a horrible device. No custom roms, no dev support because it has no source code, uses poor chipset and is priced like it is the best phone ever.
No wonder the price of that phone came down by 130$ in India within 20days of its launch.

Other Samsung handsets may have to wait a little longer, although we'd expect that most high profile devices released in the last 18 months to 2 years will get the update, including the Galaxy S4 Mini and the Galaxy S5 Mini.
Let's hope the first release hasnt got all the issues the S4 firmware has/had.
Guys can anyone tell me if the stock lollipop , incase it exists, will have sdcard issues? Do i have to use sdfix or foldermount again??

Possibly when the moon falls from the sky and the aliens get around to fixing it...
Samsung pretty much don't guarantee ANY updates until it happens... Asking them will result in being told that they don't give estimates or dates...
Anything you read on the net is just digital wind until you actually see the update available.
There is NO guarantee it will come.
Asking about it is a pointless excercise as it maybe released today or never... Any other response is just a guess or passing on that digital wind...
I wouldn't worry to much about it. I'm not loving it on my Note 4.

No, but it would be nice for Samsung to breathe some new life into this older device... If we got 5.1.1 or even M that would be a really nice surprise, might even put a little bit more faith in their brand again....
Oh, and get rid of KNOX and region models...

the Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 is updating to android 5
and the Note 10.1 2014 Edition has the same hardware as Note Pro... with a little differences.
so... i think Note 10.1 2014 Edition will be upgraded to android 5 after Note Pro.
and... i think it will happen soon.
