Hi I noticed the N7100 note 2 ports of 4.4.2 Kitkat are getting more stable but do any of you remember why the i9300 couldn't get updated, Samsung said driver issues. But yet we can now run 4.4.2 touchwiz on i9300 with no issues. So my question is why can't the i9300 get updated officially?
Because its old phone which had a lot of updates. From 4.0.4 to 4.3
Can you imagine how much money cost update? And update do not earn any money.

CyanogenMod 11 ROM working on S5839i?
Hi!
I'm a bit unexperienced, and not sure about the differences among the S583xx models.
I have a S5839i which is still running Android Gingerbread 2.3, however quite badly (e.g. some calls do not show up).
So I'd like to update it to Android Kitkat 4.4.
For the S5380 I found the following manual:
http://www.ibtimes.co.uk/update-gala...nstall-1430916
However, I am not sure if the CyanogenMod 11 is compatible with my model.
On the release note http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2587481 , it is stated:
So no idea, if this includes my model (is the S5839I as sub-model of S5830I?)
If so, is there any other way to update my phone to Android Kitkat 4.4? If not, is an update to Android 4.3, Jelly Bean possible?
Thx a lot!

unfortunately there are no upgrades for this model , if your looking for better performance & more storage , get yourself a new device
A friend of mine bought a Samsung Galaxy Ace 3 (GT-S7275R), which has Android 4.2.2 - and that is the latest version that Samsung provides for this phone.
However, he'd like to use it with Fitbit hardware, which requires BLE API for syncing, and that feature is in Android 4.3.
How do we put 4.3 on this phone?
I don't think there's Cyanogen for this model. Is it possible to install vanilla Android 4.3 safely?
no
no rom like u want vanilla
Android 4.3 for your ace3

It doesn't have to be vanilla. Just how do I get 4.3 on Ace 3?
Is the Samsung Galaxy Grand 2 going to get an update after the recent update of 4.4.2? For instance, will it recieve 4.4.3 or 4.4.4?

Probably not. Samsung doesn't release two updates for non-flagship devices. The best example is the original GALAXY Grand. It only got one 4.1.2 to 4.2.2 update. Nothing else. Same thing for the GALAXY Star. But, we will get custom ROMs, hopefully.
Hello, I always have new versions of Android on my S2, and with the lollipop update, samsung released new lollipop-based touchwiz. I love touchwiz from the 4.1 update, and the lollipop-based is awersome! Now I'm running WizzedKat rom, and I ask: is there any lollipop based rom with the new touchwiz for s2? THX!

Nope. It's too early for developers to make such rom. Porting touchwiz to lollipop takes effort and is probably hard to do with all of the recent additions to android. You probably need to wait a few more months until someone manages to get it working but right now it's too early to estimate.
well, is anyone working on a touchwiz lolipop rom for s2? i'd love to test i on my s2. great piece of hardware

We need to wait for the Note 2 Official Update to lollipop , because Note2 and S3 I9300 have the same chipset . When Note 2 Will get 5.0 Lollipop then we will get PORTED ROM with S5/S6 Apps.
1. you posted a question in the development thread..please post questions in QnA thread :good:
2. no dice, BUT, if official sammy lollipop drops for the Note2, then you can safely assume ports will be done :good:
asdas
Expect note 2 official lollipop. If we come s6 application ports
Plus when note 2 lollipop drops along with its kernel sources our AOSP roms will also get much consistent .!!
So don't expect and to be honest I don't want samsung to give 5.0 because it will be heavily bloated and slow... its better to stick to AOSPs like ARCHI DROID which is so much better than the standard cyanogen mod , and the one that @JustArchi will release this time will be based on 5.1 and will have much deeper optimizations than any other rom.. So that in everyway Is a better choice ..
Samsung is one of the major OEMs which led to android fragmentation , so don't expect them to give a 2012 phone android 5.0 even though it can handle it pretty good but then again its touchwiz , which ruins everything .
That depend's on the user preferinces . I hate AOSP , i want a samsung phone not a htc !
