Samsung uses to hold 6 months from a new major release to provides its latest devices with the new version, so 4.2.x must arrive on may-June to sIII & note 2

How's it going everyone. I'm new to this section of the forum as I just upgraded from a S3. I recently updated my Note 2 but it still shows 4.1.1 is there a 4.1.2 out? I'm in the US and not sure what is the latest stock version available for the Note 2. Any help is appreciated.
Maybe samsung will do the youtube fix with the bar

I prefer 4.1.x to 4.2.x so I'll likely skip that update if it comes. I'm actually on 4.1.1 now after reversing back from 4.1.2 and I'm happy with it.
When I had my Nexus 4.2 was slower and buggier than 4.1.

I dont see any diffrence between the 4.1.2
Sent from my Samsung Galaxy Note II using TapaTalk 2.
personally, i dont really mind when we get 4.2.1. there arent that many add ons that i would consider significant enough to warrant an update.
want lockscreen widgets? most music apps already have them and some of the other apps on the market already do too.
want photo sphere? i dont see how samsung (or other app developers) wouldnt be able to add that themselves to their own camera app.
improved keyboard with gesture typing? we already have that.
multiple users? dunno about you guys but im the only one using my phone. sure, would be nice to lock out friends with a guest account when they borrow my phone, but not a necessity or something i'll use everyday.
wireless mirroring? cant we already do that with allshare?
daydream? not something i'd use since it pretty much stops the device from going to sleep, which will reduce battery life.
4.2.1 is mainly an improvement for those who are using unadulterated aosp and aokp, but for someone like me who doesnt actually mind touchwiz, its not significant enough for me to shout out whoop dee doo.

4.1.2 is out for some regions but not all yet. theres been a few revised 4.1.2 updates for my device already so maybe check with kies on yours?
I hope Samsung add a better way to manage your tabs in stock browser.( like the way in Dolphin Browser, Chrome etc.) :fingers-crossed:
I can't believe they didn't implemented such thing in first place, considering the fact that we have this ginormous screen.

4.2.1 has been out for a couple months now.
You can see how it runs by flashing a CM10 rom or even better AOSPA.
as usual, samsung will release s4 and note3 first, then update note2

That'll be for Key Lime Pie. It's a lot more possible for us to get a 4.2.1 update before Note 3 gets released.

So..... Adter seeing Galaxy s4 software features on 4.2.2..... Its to exciting for us...
Egarly waiting to see 4.2.2:thumbup: on note 2
You folks do know that there has already been a 4.2.1 leak for the S3 a while back. Most likely they will start rolling it out after the S4 becomes commercially available.
The firmware wasn't very stable as it was a development build but it did contain many of the features that ship with the S4.
I imagine the Note2 version will contain some extra stuff.
You can get the S3 firmware from Sammobile.

I am talking about 4.2.2..... Not 4.2 or 4.2.1
In 2011, 2012 and this year Samsung brought plenty of Android devices. Today we received, through our insider the first pre-list about upcoming Android updates from the Korean giant. Samsung will update the Galaxy S II and Note to Android 4.2.2 but this will be the last update for these devices. This means the Galaxy S II and Note received an update from 2.3.6 to 4.0.4 to 4.1.2 and will stop at Android version 4.2.2. Google is the only OEM which gives so many updates to its devices but Samsung is doing the same now. Below is the list of devices, which will receive the Android 4.2.2 update from Samsung.
But there is more according to the first pre-list, Samsung will only update 5 devices to Android 5.0, which is not yet announced by Google but is expected to be announced at the upcoming Google IO. The devices which will be getting the Android 5.0 update are the Galaxy S III, Galaxy S4, Note II, Note 8.0 and Note 10.1. Our insider finished with saying that plenty of MID-range Android devices of 2012 / 2013 will also receive a value pack update. Samsung did this before with the first generation of Galaxy devices. The insider confirmed Google’s next version is expected to be a big update and Samsung will take some time to update their devices.

I read a while back that they are introducing some kind of theming/skinning engine to enable carriers to update quicker, hopefully this engine will enable themers to have a good old hack and play! How deep into ui this theming goes is anyone's guess
This is great to know S3 will get another year of updates especially knowing also the S3 will get all the features of the S4 that do not require new sensor/hardware
Given the money they are making with the Galaxy S series, it would seem a really smart move to invest a small fraction of those benefits in updating the Android OS version, to buy user's loyalty. I still don't trust the source completely, but the strategy makes sense to me.
Ofcourse this is not official so we shall wait and see
Sent from my GT-P7500 using xda app-developers app
of course, this is not official, but I believe its highly likely we will get 5.0
samsung wouldnt kill s3 so fast, specially with a so capable hardware

Seriously...do you still expect s2 to get 5.0? You should be very happy if it gets 4.2.2...it really has similar cpu architecture and that means its still capable of running newest androids, samsung wont upgrade because of age, not capatibillity
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
Is this a response to the Apple claim that the S4 is being launched with last year's version of Android, that the Android market is fragmented over so many versions and capabilities?

Would be nice if the S3 gets android 5, but it's likely most S3's will have crapped out by then because of the faulty nand.

I have a theory that on each boot the emmc chip plays a little game of russian roulette with our partition structure and format - blowing out the brains of the unfortunate partition that happens to be chosen.
The result of which poor partition got terminated varies from a wipe and reflash upto a hardbrick and warranty repair...
I respect samsung for the S2 updates.
The S2 is a historical phone, it's gone through 3 major updates.
And they are doing the same for the S3.
They took down the whole market with just 3 phones, and now they are looking forward to adjust themselves on the throne with a 4th one.
One thing i can't wait for is the S4 features to play with on the S3.
It's almost confirmed that we will get them, as i see strings of those features in the MB3 leak.
All i can say, good job Samsung.
The only let down of Samsung is their care against the developer community, if they would be more like Sony. I'd never buy anything else than a galaxy device.

It's already confirmed. Samsung said we will get all the S4 features which aren't directly hardware dependent (features which require certain hardware to be there, like the infrared thingy)
Android isn't even completely optimized for Quad Core yet, The Galaxy S3 has at least another year of support left.
I love when a new Android version comes out. It makes our phone brand new for a while. I hope version 5.0 or whatever can fo that for me so I can keep this bad boy another year.

We got a 99% chance of getting KLP because there's no way samsung will update the GS4 only + The GS2 got 4.0/4.1/4.2 and the GS3 got 4.1/4.2(leaked) only so the GS3 will probably get 1 more update after 4.2 which is 5.0.
now.note 2 willnot have 4.2..direct 4.3 here is proof
Australian carrier Telstra has received a confirmation that the Samsung Galaxy Note II 4G model will skip Android 4.2.2 and will be updated straight to the 4.3 Jelly Bean. It doesn't seem to be a regional thing either - all Galaxy Note II units might be treated that way.
Here is the official quote from Telstra's support page:
Samsung have elected globally to skip the 4.2.2 update for this device and will instead go to a newer version of Android. No schedule has been provided for this update.
We already know that Samsung Galaxy Note II will live long enough to taste the Android 5.0 Key Lime Pie, so owners shouldn't worry about the Android updates.
Meanwhile, Samsung still manages to keep the upcoming Galaxy Note III under wraps, but a picture taken with it popped up in Picasa yesterday. It hardly gives us much info, but it does confirm the device model number - N9005. This will most probably going to be the Snapdragon 800 version of the phablet with the revamped Exynos 5 powering the N9000 version.
The Note III will be announced on September 4 ahead of IFA in Berlin. It's expected to bring 5.7" 1080p Super AMOLED display and 3GB of RAM.

I don't know why I'm laughing.

I'm tempted to upgrade because I'm getting bored, but there's nothing out there I want (tried the One for a few weeks and it was nice). I just want new software for my Note 2!

I'm in the same boat. There's no other device that I want, and the Note III is still far away. The 4.2.2 update was supposed to come out and make that bridge, that's why I find it very disappointing to hear those news.
Nice to see a 4.3 update will come to our devices but this will be arround end october/ november prolly.
With the Note III to come out
Great battery, superb performance, tons of apps and mods. Not bothered with official updates.

LOL @ the complaints.
Oh how truly awful it is for you! You have to wait a little to get an update that most 2012 phones will never even see Officially, must be hearbreaking and truly disappointing that your phone is being supported and getting the very latest and greatest OS version.
I bet the very same people would be complaining if Samsung updated the Note2 to 4.2.2 now and took even longer to update it to 4.3 and 5.0.
By the way, can someone name me one other 2012 Android phone sitting on 4.2.2 other than the Nexus 4? also, please name me one OTHER 2012 Android phone, other than Note2 (plus possibly GS3) and N4 that is confirmed to be getting 4.3?

That's totally beside the point. It shouldn't have to take them >8 months to push out the latest version.
As of now we need to wait for the updates who follow official releases.. no matter what the time the manufacturers decide!

Camera improvement
I hope a big improvement in 4.3 camera quality because is the only thing I don't like in my SGN2. I don't know why the video is so perfect and the photos are blurred and the file size is so small even using the Snap Camera... :crying:
What update you N7100 users are sitting on? T-Mobile has 4.1.2.
You know I don't really care for 4.2.2 but there should be at least better options. Like the use of our big screen. It should be like the mega or more tablet like functions.

I am planning to upgrade my Nexus 5 to a Galaxy S4 for better camera performance. But I still want to enjoy the pure android experience that one gets on the Nexus devices. I know I can buy the Google Play edition but its not easily available in my country and is expensive.
So which Galaxy S4 chipset model do you suggest if I am to install the stock Android Jellybean or Kitkat on my S4 - Snapdragon 600 or Exynos 5 Octa?
Also what would be the respective Samsung model numbers to differentiate between the two versions?

Dears,
How is everyone doing?
I have been an Android user for many years (Nexus Flagship to be precise), last year I switched to the Galaxy S4 GPE and it was an amazing phone.
After the release of Galaxy S5, I have been waiting patiently for the release of the GPE, but there are no words yet other than the rumors, speculations, Google putting it's image on the store instead of the S4 by mistake. And that's it.
You may be wondering what this topic is about, I need an advise from you guys on:
1- Is there any hope for it to be released, or was the rumors about Google not going through the trouble of releasing it because of the heart rate and finger sensors.
2- If yes, how long do you think we will wait?
3- I HATE samsung TouchWIz and the bloats that comes with it, is there any custom Stock ROM for it yet?
4- Is there a stable Cyanogenmod for the S5 ?
Regards,
Oh, forgot to mention, the reason why I'm not interested in any other GPE devices is that they all together lack one thing I think it's important to have in a smartphone, a (DECENT CAMERA), every device released by Google whether it was a Nexus or something else lacks a good camera. :crying: as a photographer/multimedia user and a blogger, it is a necessary for me.

Stick with the S4 or get an iPhone.
