[Q] Android 5.0 Lollipop on the Samsung Galaxy Tab S - Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Will we ever realistically see Android 5.0 Lollipop on the Samsung Galaxy Tab S?

I hope so, this tab is more than capable of running it. Last years entry level xperias are getting lolipop and even the moto defy. I think aosp will come out about december then we'll see a touchwiz version Feb or something. Tbf there aren't many devs for the tab s

Early 2015 or at least in march is the latest.

My best guess. I read in an article somewhere about it.

I have read several times samsung will update flagship models to lollipop, so since the tab s series is their top of the line models atm they will get it like the other guy said early 2015. Now my question, if you have rooted and tripped knox will it be possible to get the update or will have to wait for a rom to flash?

Well we don't know if the cfauto root works on android l. But you can just flash a factory Image when ever android l is out. Or do it with kies.

From the article:
Samsung is yet to reveal its plans for the official roll out of the Lollipop 5,0 update on its devices, but a tentative prediction has been prepared by The Android Soul based on company's record history.

Amazing! Devs rock man

I hope T805. My new tab with lollipop and cm12....Great !!
:thumbup:

I think we should get together a bounty/donation for eousphoros for a succesful port of CM12 (lollipop) to the Tab S 8.4 inch. It would be nice because it will help with his baby costs too! (that's the reason he's been busy)
hes the only hope we got,
eousphoros, let me know if you want me to start a thread or you can start one of those donate/pledge pages that keeps track of total, much easier. I'll spread it around good.

EMUI 2.3 beta testing got pushed back a few days, it will appear soon to the closed beta testers and we will know if it comes with 4.4, if it does not, then we will probably not get 4.4 on our devices at all. Expected emui 2.3 launch is in march/april.

If we don't get 4.4 that would be pretty shocking seeing as the P6 came out after the Galaxy S4 and that will certainly get 4.4

Huawei only cares about their little emotion ui to be honest. Going from 4.2.2 to 4.4 requires alot of extra work, so its easier to release a new emotion ui version than compile one based on new android version.
The new released B199 and Mate 2 comes with stock Android 4.3. So they are in a sense working on android upgrades too.
Is it possible to port the firmware of B199 (minus the kernel) to p6 ?
It is very simple. I'm satisfied with my P6, but if it doesn't get 4.4, I will NEVER buy anything from Huawei again. Today we have an option to choose.

Im certain p6 would get android 4.4. This android 4.4 news was made public by Richard Yu himself and highly improbable he would make a total bluff about it. P6 is their flagship phone even till today so attention to software upgrade would be there. Plus, if they dont plan to upgrade android, there is no reason why they haven't yet released the Emui2.0 at least, despite them doing beta tests on the P6 way back from august last year.
But yea i understand the frustrations and the total secrecy policy of Huawei gets really frustrating.

but thats the most exciting part for all of us ;p will or will not be 4.4 for P6 that is the question ... ;p
im betting that we will get 4.4 in 3 weeks time ... from test leak or CN build ;p
as we can flsh and downgrade to any build it really doesnt matter
Whats the problem? Huawei said the update will come in January, it's not February yet. You can complain when it's February.
Coming from HTC One S it's pretty easy to say that Huawei is doing a great job with it's updates. It's pretty nice that i lost my One S while i was drunk and got P6 because it's so cheap and nice looking phone and the specs are awesome too. Kit Kat will come when it's due. Im totally happy with surdu_petru's CM 10.1.

it's here, well...actually out there, the testers have a version of the ROM. In Febuary it's safe to say that it will be officially released.

[Q] Note 3 neo n7505 knox

Hello,
I have a question.
I have my note 3 for a couple of days. It is my first android device. (always used apple)
I Read something about a knox code. That will trip when I root my device.
Is that true, or is there a workaround?
Also, I read somewhere that KitKat was released for the note 3 neo (sm-n7505)
But no ota..
If I install the official rom of KitKat, will that also trip my knox?
I hope someone can help me with this
If you download the official rom from samsung then it will not trip knox

Nope, and everyone are actually asking about that 3 times a day. I suppose you can guess how bored everyone are with this question?
The update may come any next day.

We were promised on that by Samsung, and the KK firmware is under testing now, which is confirmed by a famous insider. So yes, we're pretty safe to say it will come 'soon'.

Android 5.0

Does anyone know if it was released today? I saw two articles on google that it was released for D581. Any news on it?
The bits I can find are talking about a Cyanogen CM12 release for the D851. Not stock from LG yet. But perhaps my google-fu is off today.

Yeah.. Lollipop update might be around the corner..
Hey guys, so judging from this thread the D581 isn't on lollipop yet huh? A friend of mine just got this phone but is using it here in Canada on Wind Mobile. Will the 5.0 update be pushed from T Mobile, which in essence would exclude him from the update, or is it coming directly from LG?

Thanks for the info but it seems for India, N7100XXUFNL1 is the latest one.
It looks like Samsung has abandoned N7100 along with thousands of it's users.
I would not like to root or use any other method to upgrade to later firmwares as I have no idea about them,so it is better to leave it as it is instead of bricking it.
We spent so many thousands of Rs for buying this N7100.Shame on Samsung for abandoning it .

Google kills gingerbread starting September of 2021

If you do a factory reset after September of 2021, Google will not allow the SGY to sign in or make a new account.
as you CANNOT POSSIBLY get past this step upon factory reset, your SGY is now "bricked", courtesy of of googl corporation. googl says they do it "to keep ure account safe".
oh, how thoughtful of googl, right ? only Honeycomb 3.0 and younger android will keep working for a while until googl decides to brick them as well.
Thats sad i use a duos model of the galaxy y and i did need to install cm 11 to be able to use the playstore again.
