Looks like the Mega is going to 4.4 kit kat after all... - Samsung Galaxy Mega

Saw this:
http://news.yahoo.com/next-samsung-android-phones-kitkat-125013478.html
Wonder what the differences will be in 4.4?

Yeah no telling when .......this is information already known....I myself like vanilla android
*2SHAYNEZ*KCCO*

Since it was on Yahoo, it must be true!!!! Lol...

Some rumours said that it will be released by samsung at the end of feb 2014. Just hope that it's true

Whit 4.3 there are already one model: http://pdadb.net/index.php?m=specs&id=5750&view=1&c=samsung_gt-i9200x_galaxy_mega_6.3

Compared it with i9200, the only difference listed is the OS version... doesn't look right.

Yeah they don't k ow what they are talking about ....4.3 isn't out yet lol point blank !!

And there's no commitment from the carriers to deliver the 4.4 update yet. Once Sprint/AT&T/T-Mobile announce, I'll believe it.

So you received 2 separate text messages on 2 totally different dates? Did they both say the same thing?

If we see it, I think it'll be a positive sign that the carriers listen to the voices of users wanting (demanding) updates and similar featuresets to other models of the same handset (not stripped down) but I'd be really surprised if we ever see another official update out of AT&T for the Note.
We're under contract for two years, IMO we should get good support and reasonable updates for those two years.
I still think if carriers didn't screw with the updates so much, they could get them out faster and cheaper, but I doubt that'll happen

true but not exactly what I meant. What I mean is say Samung goes to release say the Note 3, they write an ASOP rom, and then another that has all of the touchwiz, multiple windows and other cool samsung apps. When the phone hits the carrier, it will inevitably be laced with AT&T bloatware, but we'd still have the original ASOP from sammy to choose from. Now I know in this model there's no way a company like Samsung could maintain 2 ROMs for every phone, but I think many of us would prefer to go without touchwiz for a clean experience and true customizability that Android was meant to be.
Really though, if Google went to more of a modular design instead of encoding the hardware drivers within a kernel that would be the end all of that. Yes I do understand that kernal compilation with the drivers provides a speedier system, but heck our phones are packing a dual core and it's just linux and linux is quick by nature.
Just my thoughts.

Android 4.3 and not 4.2.2 update?

Hello,
Since then I've gotten with that there is no 4.2.2 update for the S 3, but now I am become somewhat skeptical that there will probably be no more updates.
If anyone knows any this update has already been confirmed by Samsung?
Thanks in advance for an answer..:cyclops:

TW 4.2.2 closing in? ...get ready Beanstown! xD

http://www.sidhtech.com/news/samsung-galaxy-note-3-s3-android-422-update/1006086/
Since its safe to assume verizon will be running over this update again and again with its monster truck of doom and then leaving it to die in the mud long before even thinking about passing the carcass of whats left to its customers, our awesome dev's will be needing an international base, I'm sure, as soon as it is available in order to pass the greatness on to their VZ followers(ok me ) through their awesome ROMs that they work so hard on.
Soooo I was thinking; in order to hopefully cut the first step out (getting a hold of the update file itself) maybe the right combination of peeps(someone who is or knows someone that is on the international base) could read this thread and kindly have the update file extracted and ready to share to the devs as soon as its available...
If this is a waste of thread then I apologize. I'm just trying to help any way I can...
I flash ALOT ...and also yes.
I'm thinking we'll have the international base out by middle of next week. Hopefully we'll get some of the new features that's on the GS4 like the new photo stuff.

Id say it depends on what rom youre talking about. Ones built off the VZW base wont be updated until we get an OTA more than likely. Roms based on the International firmware will be updated straight away.
The article the OP linked only applies to the International variant, therefore its only moderately exciting.
I don't see the goods of the 4.2.2 and I prefer 4.1.2 lock screen.

Im right there with ya! The international roms almost always have more features, seeing as how Verizon hasnt managed to get their grubby hands on it, and run a bit smoother than the VZW roms that have been modded to add the features back.

SFR said that LG confirmed the update. Either way, this is pretty great news. Let's hope it makes it's way to the AT&T variant
I dont care if the carrier releases it(it would be nice tho) just as long as an official LG optimus G rom is out there I will put it on my phone. I just love the LG UI. I am using a cm11 which is pretty good
Actually, E970 should get Kit Kat earlier than the other variants
LG has already updated the User Agent Profile on its official website:
Old http://gsm.lge.com/html/gsm/E970-M6-D1.xml
New http://gsm.lge.com/html/gsm/E970-M10-D1-KK.xml
G Pro now has a similar profile and it has been updated recently:
http://gsm.lge.com/html/gsm/E980-M10-D1-KK.xml
You can try to put different numbers instead of "970" and check corresponding UAPs

Basically, these links detail backend support details about the system for the official E970 KitKat ROM. It doesn't really contain anything particularly useful per se, but the fact that it exists shows that official KitKat Does exist for the E970.

This is awesome. I sure hope AT&T delivers on this one.
Yeah, I don't expect this at all, with how bad LG is with updating their phones, plus AT&T pushing an update out on a phone this old. I really hope they do, but I have no hope they will.
Still no news about the update for e970. :/
But the official kitkat port is really smooth and stable. I'm grateful that we have such awesome developers working for our device.
im having trouble with messaging threads on Paulicat's but other than that and wifi shutting off every once and a while the rom is better than an lg/att release of it. Their release would have too much bloatware.

Android Kitkat Update For Note 3 Neo

Does anyone get android kitkat 4.4.3 for Samsung Galaxy Note 3 Neo
It's all a distant dream....unless you're a Korean with a Korean phone!
Even galaxy grand 2 got 4.4.2.I think we will get update next month..
Sent from my SM-N750 using XDA Free mobile app
Firstly I would like to tell you guys that my friend has a grand 2 and he got kitkat update.But he isnt happy because samsung has underclocked the gpu,low frame rate in games,bugs while charging,etc.Also those who updated to kitkat and are unsatisfied with kitkat cant even go back to JB as it results in a hard brick.
So I think samsung is maybe looking into providing a better update for our device with least bugs possible.So its better to wait a month or so more rather than getting a buggy update to which you cant even roll back to.
Secondly,I have been using note 3 neo for 4 days and till now i have not faced a single problem or setback in terms of performance.All games weather gta sa,nfs,fifa,max payne,etc run super smooth on JB.

Most of initial firmware updates (irrespective of the model) from Samsung is buggy and users are expected to test it for them .
Also due to knox downgrading firmware has become a PITA Like some one said just be patient and it'll come when it's ready
