Hi guys,
Just like the subject, will mega 6.3 get android 5 officially some day from Samsung ??
I know it's toooo early for such a Q but this may be a matter of live or death for any device
Like S2 which still receives it's 4th big update now (live) , and Galaxy Grand which received it's only 1st update 4.2.2 (death) .
I wish any one have something or a prediction just say it and try to proof it

I think we need to worry about getting 4.3 before we think about 5.0.

The old Galaxy S2 got a jellybean update from samsung. A year old Galaxy Grand Dous, an almost entry-level phone, got a jb 4.2.2 update from samsung. Even the old Galaxy Tab 2, an old entry-level tab, got a jb 4.2.2 update.
Why would samsung abandon a two-and-a-half month old Mega 6.3 all of a sudden?
Samsung already said that they will no longer support dual cored devices after 4.2 update but they said it before 4.3 was released so it's sure that premium end dual core devices (such as mega and may be note 1) will get 4.3 update.)
But there's is a big doubt existing:what: in the case for dual cored devices getting 5.0(but why samsung put dual core on mega, a premium device when they are providing octa core on s4

When did Samsung say they will no longer support dual core devices after 4.2 update? I don't think that's true.
The Mega is a mid range device and at the price you can't find anything near what you get from it.

No man I relly meant they(sammy) even didn't put quad core on the device at this price range(note that mega released after s4 and they even knows that key lime pie can't be put on a dual core)
Also looking on the price range in my country (India)
Mega 6.3 -- 31000rs
Note 2 --->34000rs
S3 ----> 27000rs
S4 ----> 40000rs
Verdict : note 2 and s3 is better and got quad core(really better than mega on performance and price)

Thank Sammobile article was made in March and the Mega was released in July. I think It will definitely get Keylime Pie.

But did you noticed comments posted there?? Even google is not supporting their dual core devices on next update (say, galaxy nexus, but mega is far more powerful than galaxy nexus)
But anyway if we has luck we could get klp (my device is also a dualcore legend, the mighty tab 2 .But I am pretty sure my device wouldn't get klp (may be CM would help) coz it's too weak to run even the stock 4.2.2)

Galaxy Nexus is not ALL dual core phones so it's nothing to worry about.
I have the tab 2 7.0 and I am sure the Tab 3 will get KLP and its specs is the same as the Tab 2.
I don't think it's good just speculating and making people worry about things we're not really sure about.

Hey all,
I didn't think that Samsung was planning to upgrade the original Note but just read an article on Slashgear saying that there is one on the way.
Is an official JB ROM on its way?

Uhm...
That's the international version, not our version.
sent from my chunk...
I hope I'm wrong ....
But in the context of that article ...the author could just as well have meant upgrade to JB in the form of a new device, not just software.
And yes .that is the international version they are referencing ....g
Got and E-Mail from SamMobile today:
Samsung to start with Jelly Bean (Android 4.1) updates for the next devices:
Galaxy S III
Galaxy S II
Note
Note 10.1
Galaxy Tab 2 10.1
Galaxy Tab 2 8.9
The updates are planned for Q4.
There are rumours about Ace 2 and Advance Jelly Bean updates. We cannot confirm this at the moment.
I'm not sure if it's of any consolation, just my contribution.
Might only be for the International version. Crossing fingers for the i717.

Let's hope that this apply to our version of our Notes and not the international. We're still waiting for the XXLRQ update even though we can use some of its features already via apk extraction.

I would think we'd be seeing some JB leaks. But considering that it takes Samsung a while to update the international note (which is higher on their priority scale then at&t or tmo note), and the fact that article said nothing about AT&T, I would guess this update is for the GT-N7000 only.
If there is an AT&T note update, it'll probably be a few months after that.
Just from what I've seen with other samsung international vs. carrier specific phones.
We didn't see gb leaks for the at&T note before the official update rom came out.
Don't see why it wouldn't come out or that at&T isn't a priority... I am sure they sold with enough not to want piss off first note owners and screw up 3rd generation note sales.
My opinion of course.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using Tapatalk 2
I swear, when ICS was officially released from AT&T, I was so happy. I backed up my latest ICS developer ROM, think it was h0tw1r3's, then went and installed the official ICS. I ran that crap for one day. Immediately restored my phone back to a developer ROM. So much bloated crap on there and seemed so slow.
I really don't think I am ever installing back an official release, BUT I do miss S-Memo, and yes I know about other apps similar, but the new features coming on the Note2 with S-Memo, idk... Looks very tempting.
People, the Att Note also is Note. Samsung said 'Note' and that incluses all versions of Note. So just wait. It will come.

+1. If you're an old school AT&T and Samsung owner, you know AT&T is slow to update. Took almost 8 months for me to get official GB on my Captivate from the time they announced it. Not even mentioning the wait for Eclair to Froyo They have gotten better though. We'll get it.

What do you guys think?
It seems we will receive 4.2 early next year, but what about 5.0? It probably will be out in summer, so its near the end of the 18 month update plan.
Guesses?
i don't think . they will probably say they are " working on it " than cancel it and say it wont release it because it doesn't have enough ram .
^ 5.0 will probably add a bunch of new features but I'll bet the main aim for El Goog will be to optimise it so it runs on more devices. The biggest con on Android from other smartphone users is "fragmentation" I reckon Google will do their best to sort this.
Yes

It'll probably be on the SGS IV then.
Lets watch how 4.1.1, 4.1.2, 4.2 goes, 5 shall probably follow the same rollout schedule.
As for telco's rolling it out, expect the same slowness 3month+ delay for bloatware, testing, reports, approval etc. Probably a 2014 release unless it comes pre installed or DIY if you want it early
Think ill just go for the SGS IV
I would say, Yes.. unless there's a new hexa-core processor for smartphone in the coming future, then will slightly doubt S# will be getting 5.0
For now with quad-core and 1GB RAM (or some cases 2GB RAM) are enough spec for smartphone..
Maybe, in year 2046..

They are the best processors though, and if you want a proper a15, the exynos 5 is the only way to get there. It's also worth keeping in mind that the Exynos 5 is also much more open source friendly now that it is used in the nexus 10(that could however change if Samsung decides to go for the big.little architecture change).
Just because Exynos deosnt have proper documentation doesnt mean its not the best mobile processor on the planet. It is.

Android 4.3 leak is design for Qualcomm SoC. Galaxy S3 runs into a Samsung Exynos 4 SoC. Without documentation about it (by Samsung), no chance to port this ROM on Galaxy S3.

I don't think,first Note 2 need to receive Lollipop and after this probably your dev's will starts to port the rom for your phone. But from S4 to S3 is impossible,is 2 different phone.

I don't think that's a good reason. There have been ports from other different models in the past. You always need to apply the proper drivers when you are porting from one phone to another so I guess the limitations will be the same whereas you are porting from the S4 (which to me makes more sense as performance wise the S3 LTE and S4 are similar) or the Note 2.

All models of S3 have the same chipset (Exynos 4412), it is not possible to port S4's lollipop to S3 since there is a difference between chipset (ram....etc doesn't matter)..... Other roms like a note 4 rom (for example) are based on a port from another device with the same chipset.....
Good News is Note 2 is going to get lollipop as Samsung Poland confirmed it, so S3 (i9300 and i9305) will get a touchwiz lollipop update:good:
