I believe it released with 2.5 but since 3.0 is designed to work best with 4.4 it would make sense Samsung has pushed this upgrade. The Samsung rep I spoke to said that yes, it was running 3.0 but they didn't sound completely sure to me.
I believe the Note 10.1 is upgradable to 3.0 and the Note Pro 12 is running it as well.
Does anyone have a definitive answer on this? We are looking to port some Tab 10.1 Exynos roms to the Tab S but need to confirm this first as the Tab S does have 3.0.
Thanks in advance

Hello, xdaDevs,
I recently got my Galaxy Note 8.0 (N5110) and I was surprised by the tiny number of ROMs for it.
Well, I thought I may be able to do something about that.
First off, I've not asked anyone about permissions to port their ROM yet.
So, what got me interested in porting a ROM for the Note 8 was a tutorial on XDA: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2284985
As the Note 8.0 and the 10.1n hardware looks mostly the same ( Both have an Exynos 4412, the 10.1 has Rev 1.1 and the Note 8 has Rev 2.0, they share a Mali-400 GPU, the resolution is the same as is the soundchip. )
A problem could be the lack of HW-Buttons on the Note 10.1...
So, xdaDevs, following the tutorial on the site I linked to above, how likely will I succeed? How likely will I brick my device if I have made a Nandroid backup on TWRP?
Is there anything I haven't considered?
someone's ported the galax Y 8rom to the gn2 so I'd suspect the 101 to the 8 should be doable.
Hey, I did a lot of searching but couldn't find anything about this (surprisingly) so..:
Is somebody already working on a Cyanogenmod version for the Tab S / will there ever be one?
Yes it's being worked on. If the Dev cracks it you'll see a thread in Development.

I would find it unlikely due to the fact that is hasn't happened on the Note 2014, Note Pro, or Galaxy Tab Pro, or the Tab S, which all feature the same Exynos 5 based SoC, and all have far more custom rom and development work.

The sheer awesomeness of the prospect makes it metaphysically more likely. I call this Awesome Theory and I just made it up.
Back in the fall, I think it was expected we'd get it in February. Any new word?
My guessing is somewhere this year. I own a tab s and reports from sammobile say that the Tab s gets it somewhere in the spring. Im not sure about the tab pros though
Any such predictions are pure speculation and are pointless. Make up what ever date you want. It will be no more or less accurate than any other random XDA member.
Today samsung show lollipop on galaxy tab s (8.4 and 10.1) running 5.0.2 . So we know know the modification of touchwiz for lollipop tablets its almost finished . I suppouse it was easier to bring lollipop for smartphones and also tjey are their most important product so its easy to see why tjey wanted to update them before tablets.

I can only hope the pro models are included, considering their specs and general "newness".

Personally I can't see any Lollipop 5.0 version coming to the Tab Pro soon, Samsung have been rolling out T320XXU1BNI1 for 6 months now which is 4.4.2 update.
As this is still being rolled out then this will delay any 5.0 version coming to the Tab Pro, why spend time and resources rolling out an update to 4.4.2 if you intended to roll out 5.0.
Be nice if 5.0 did come to the Tab Pro but if it is, don't think its going to be very soon if at all.
Samsung Live Updates
they are. The tablets will receive lollipop are the 3 tab pro , the 3 tab s and the note 10.1 (2014) . Of course they have priorities but we can always wait for a port to use in the midtime

I probably read similar articles as you but I think that they tended to say Note Pro, Tab S and Galaxy Note 2014, as getting it but any other Tabs are unlikely, whatever does happen is out of our control anyway all we can do is wait and see what Samsung do.
if we dont get official we can hope someone port those lollipop roms to tabs pro (like it was done to give touchwiz kitkat to the s3 or lollipop to the s4 using a note 3 rom)
spoke with Samsung rep..
I spoke with a Samsung tech 2 weeks ago and she told me the Tab S will be getting the upgrade in the spring an tab pro was not on the update list yet...but probably would get it..
There was galaxy note 8 and note 10 previously but i cant find it now
they either removed it or holding it back
anyway today poland confirmed note 2 lollypop . there is lot of similar hardwares we can find in note 2 and note 8
hope they release all codes of this also

Note 8.0 LollyPop
I am sure the Note 8.0 will receive LollyPop.
KitKat is a farce, compared to Jellybean. Have 2 Note 8.0s now, one is listed in my sig and the other I have been dealing with for some time since grabbing it on Ebay for less then $100. Who knows what little Lollypop will do for the Note 8.0, as so far JB has proven to me how stable and battery friendly it is over KitKat. Besides LPs interface is to gimmicky and waists screen space. Since more an more apps are pushing the new design, I am getting more and more fed up with Android in general. Samsung Tizan and Linux OS will save me from Google's self worshiping toy interface style.
I don't think soon
cause of release of tab a8
Same hardwear or lower
more expensive than note 8 cause of lollipop
If updated
no body will buy tab a8
I bought a Tab Pro 8.4 on Black Friday and I haven't received a single OS update since. I'm on 4.4.2 and I actually like my tablet a lot and everything runs well aside from some occasional touchscreen over-sensitivity. Still, I'd at least like to see a 4.4.4 update before they mothball it. Has there been any official word about an upcoming update? I know I can get more recent firmware versions by flashing a ROM but I don't care for CM and I don't want to break the multi-window feature or the Samsung features that sync with my Samsung Smart TV.
Actually, I've got mine rooted and tweaked with Xposed Framework modules so it's just the way I like it. I'm not sure I would install an update when it came out.
There is an update for the 8.4 WiFi only T320 version just released but its only an update to the current 4.4.2, don't know about other 8.4 PRO versions though.
Don't expect this TAB to get 5.0.

Samsung takes a while for updates... I've been waiting months for 5.0 on my tab S. And it's a flagship device!

Agree with that they are slow but they only really do updates in the first 12 - 14 months after that its just minor things never a full rom, my tab was February 2104 so I am really not expecting it to ever get 5.0, the TAB S was released in the summer time so much more likely to get it, its all just hope really.
This extract from techradar says
Samsung doesn't seem great at updating its tablets either. There's a good chance recent slates like its Note Pro and Tab S ranges and even the Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 2014 will get Android Lollipop, but anything older or low end is probably not going to happen.
And looking here when you scroll down to the Samsung section there isn't much relating to TABS either
