Lollipop 5.1 : Close to rolling out according to Samsung France - Samsung Galaxy Alpha

Hi guys,
I have some kind of good news for you ! After twitting and chating with Samsung France, they told me that Android 5.1 Lollipop is coming to the Alpha really soon !
On Twitter Samsung France told me that the update IS rolling out in France but I still have nothing.
I had a chat with Samsung France on their website and they again told me that Lollipop 5.1 is coming but with no date.
Hope to see it soon on my Alpha !
See you guys

Great news Hope to see it in less then a month - that would be great

Interesting news.

Noice! s5 as got 5.1.1 today go i guess we are close

I have a nordic version(Finland). If the french version(5.1) rolling out the first, may I install it to my phone and set language to finnish? If any problems?

Yep

any news when will get 5.1?

I really don't trust SamsungFR twitter account. They said the same thing for 5.0 and it came 1.5 month after. And when it came out I told them it was out, their answer was "are you sure it's lolipop?"
EDIT: BTW, now when people ask about 5.1 update for Alpha, they answer "we have no informations about this...."

5.0 does not seem to be worth the trouble but 5.1 may be and M may have some great features like RAW Camera Support etc.
I am good with 4.4 until I know the Features.

Any news?

Will the A series (A3, A5, A7) get the 5.1 update too or only Alpha?

The galaxy Alpha has nothing to do with the "A-series". But as Samsung got a 18month update policy, it most likely will.

that means , A2017U (USA) and A2017 (Chinese) will get Nougat either this month or the next (December).
I can't say that I'm not a little bit disappointed by hearing January 2017. Being advertised as the first Daydream 'ready' phone, I had my hopes up for an upgrade closer to the Daydream-platform launch today..

If you didn't know Daydream requires Nougat and the phone initially ships with Marshmallow, I can see how that could be interpreted. I just knew it meant it will get Nougat eventually. The chipset is what is important. Older Qualcomm devices cannot support Daydream because they cannot meet recommended performance requirements.
Daydream actually required 7.1 version IMO.
And since 7.1 released couple of weeks ego that's mean
It needs at least 2 months preparation until OEM implement a newer version of Android.
So If US or Chinese version receive it within November/December it will be version 7 and that's not good sign/news at all.
So everyone hope ZTE bring 7.1 version(and NOT 7 i repeat) and doesn't matter who will get it first IMO.
It will be HUGE MISTAKE if ZTE not bring 7.1.

Indeed, let's hope they are skipping 7 and are putting all effort in a good working 7.1.
On official german Facebook page they say Daydream will be supported with Nougat update in January.

As long as ZTE involved to improve it via software.
But until now all Chinese haven't shown any skills for better software processing as for the camera performance.
Even Huawei lacking against top of the top Korean manufacturers despite being involved Leica.

There is a possibility we will see another camera improvement if zte implement camera2api in the nougat update, however i doubt this because the camera2api has been available since lollipop which has been around for years. On the bright side however they said they might add raw support which you need the camera2api for (unless they want to do a lot of coding themselves). So there is a possibility the camera might get better .

nougat update coming to the a3 2016?Samsung Support said it's coming at the end

I was laughing when some site say 24 april before a5 2016 and same the a5 2017. Samusng update are the reason of the succes of ios !
There's so much misinformation going around that the best thing you can do rn is to just wait. You'll know soon enough whether you should cry or flash firmware for a specific region.
Now they delayed to 10-21 June.

Android 8.0.0 Oreo for Galaxy C7 SM-C7000 ?

hi everyone
i just wonder when we can get Android 8 oreo for Galaxy C7
such a smartphone with this performances 4G of ram, 64go internal memory, powerfull processor qualcomm 626 (8 X 2.02 ghz) ,1080p resolution.................
why theres no develepments for this device ?
no roms port no custom roms !
hope android 8 come soon
Oreo will not come for the C7. Samsung has a specific update policy. S, A and Note series are getting two major updates. The other series are either getting a major update or not at all. For example, the J series gets one major update. The C series is a local series. The C series is a special series to the far east. It is also now joined with the J series. The other name of C8 is J7+. As a result, if the J-series receives the single major update, the C-series also receives the single major update. The only major update of the C7 was Nougat.
Do not hope for Oreo.
ok i get it thank you so what about custom roms ported roms ?? also there's no development for it !!!

No!, C-series will have two major system update!
Samsung has recently post a notice in the Samsung Members app, the notice said that it will have Oreo update in October!
And also the what u said in your word, that all J-series won't have two major system update,but J7 Prime will have Oreo update too
:laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh:
Today, I have a question and I got this answer. This is good news for us but there is always the possibility that Samsung can change this calendar. Because in the past, Samsung had deleted many devices in the Nougat update calendar and did not update them. They have already written that they can change it in the answer they give. All we can do is trust Samsung and wait to update.
By the way, the comments I made about the single update of the J series came up as a result of my observations. I have information about this in my country as a source at epey.com. The site is writing the first Android version and the latest Android version of the devices. If you take a good look, you will get something like: S, Note and A series devices are getting two major updates and the other series are either getting single updates or not updating at all.
The C series is a new series. For this reason I can not make a definite comment. But C8 is called J7 + in different countries. And since the J-series gets one big update, I think it's the C-series too.
In the old Nougat update calendar, many devices from series J would receive the second major update. But the times were all removed from the calendar. I said I should trust Samsung, but not trusting is the best option. We will be happy if the update comes, but we will not be sorry if it does not.

But what if Samsung change it's rules of system update?
Likes Apple, they maybe change their rules by giving two update on C and J series, and three update for S,Note and A series. Like what Apple did on their iPhones, they give their iPhones three iOS update, iPhone 5s get iOS 12!
So I think Samsung may change their rules by comparing to Apple

Apple was already giving more updates than 2 major updates. The iPhone 4S came out with iOS 5, but was updated up to 9.3. The iPhone 5 came out with iOS 6, but was updated up to 10. The iPhone 5S came out with iOS 7, but was updated up to 11 and this is the latest update of iPhone 5S. So Apple gives 4 major updates. Samsung always gives 2 major updates to some models.
Of course, Samsung can make changes in the update policy. But as I tell you, Samsung is a brand that can remove many devices from the list over time.
I say again: If the update comes, we will be happy. But let's not hope for updates. If the update does not come, we will not be bad. :good:

Well, we can see C7 Pro have beta update of Android 8.0.0 on SamMobile. But it doesn't mean all C series will get that. May get as you said. Because there is two reasons;
-Pro C series come with 6.0.1 stock. But Samsung changed their UI like Android 7.
- That series released in 2017.
I can't understand Samsung in this regard. There is Android 7.1 available when they released. But why Samsung stayed on the 6.0.1.. I don't know.
In short... On mine opinion don't hope to 2016 C series will get Oreo... May get, may not. Depends on Samsung...
Oreo cooming soooooooon????

Will there be anymore security updates now?

The last update I have received for my Uk m5 10.8 is with security update dated April 20
Will there be no more now with all the fuss with Google?
Don't think so.... Updates have been sporadic at best all the time and I think they stopped updating the m5
I've got a M5 8" and last update was May 2020.

According to https://consumer.huawei.com/en/support/bulletin/ it is no more on the list. Has only just been removed, as it was there last month. So there might be one last patch left (optimistic me...)
Since I have a US model, it never received a major update and only sporadically received security updates. Very disappointing.

I agree - and it's nigh on impossible to get a branded tablet of the similar modern spec at a sensible price. Or one that gets updates.
I'm getting my Samsung Tab S 8.4" fixed and updated as an 'upgrade' to my M5.

I'm no lover of Samsung tablets - but the current S range are significantly more expensive than the M5 was.
Though I believe Samsung have promised more updates for certain parts of their range than they did in the past.
I mean the original Tab S from 2014.

Both of my SHT-W09's just updated to 345 version (September 2020 security patch level) here in UK. Haven't found any bugs. Pleased that these live to see another day, there's no tablets come close without paying 3 times as much for the Samsung.
