It is almost a year since the launch of Note II. No major update has been launched so far. We are expecting update. Anouncement has bben made for update to 4.3 in Oct 2013.

But we are looking forward for Kit Kat before 5.
[Galaxy Note II General] yahyoh:

OK so that is definitive, note 2 will never got new firmware. Thanks Samsung... You blessed me
[Galaxy Note II General] paulove:
Our phone will get the update in October as Samsung needs to sell Galaxy Gear to as many as possible.

That is why they skipped 4.2.2, so they can focus on 4.3. And I think that is cool!

What I think is 4.3 will be pushed as soon as possible in order to increase compatibility with Gear, it needs Bluetooth 4.0 i think to connect. Devices named are S4, S3 and Note 2 , oh and a tab I can't remember. All this starting in October. Case closed.

[Galaxy Note II General] BarryH_GEG:
First, Samsung never said when 4.2 would be released for the SGS3 or N2. And Sammobile isn't Samsung (by a long shot). So something that was never officially given a date can't be "delayed." Second, out of HTC, LG, Sony, and Motorola, who's faster than Samsung at updating their phones?

The HTC One S which was released four months earlier than the N2 won't be receiving any more updates at all and is stuck on 4.1/Sense 4+ for the rest of its life (officially). Since I got my N2 last November there's been probably a dozen EU-based updates that have been pushed out. I want 4.2 also but, like barondebxl said, it's a buggy mess any way. And about the time we'll get 4.2 Google will start pushing 4.3 and the whole "when are we going to get "X?" and "Samsung sucks at updates" cycle can start all over again.

Update availability threads wear me out.
[Galaxy Note II General] apallohadas:
Why can't you wait? Does your phone work or not?
[Galaxy Note II General] tuxonhtc:
Yeah pretty much. Dunno what the whining's about. If you're that obsessed about updates, buy a Nexus FFS. I don't want a buggy rushed release which would do more harm than good. Samsung's pretty decent with updates, they'd more likely update the phone than not as long as the hardware supports it.

Before 4.2.2, updates for top line android devices used to delay less than 6 months, now near 8 months since 4.2.2 and no samsung device updated yet (don't account SGS4 since it started on 4.2 and only received common system patches, no version update)

[Galaxy Note II General] BarryH_GEG:
Here's what it comes down to. When you buy a device with an overlay the size of a small car you're at the mercy of the manufacturer to push out updates according to whatever schedule they see fit. Some are faster than others and some devices by a single manufacturer get updates ahead of others too. Anyone on a developer’s forum like XDA knows that. Want instant updates? Buy a Nexus device. Buying any device with an overlay and then *****ing about its update schedule is an exercise in martyrdom. And no one here is going to help anyone get an update any faster.
[Galaxy Note II General] dr.m0x:
It's not really that simple since the nexus devices have other shortcomings. Having said that I'm really happy with my Note II running a custom 4.1.2 and I'm not impatient for an update.

[Galaxy Note II General] madushan92:
Then what do u think is faster? Sony? They updated their 2012 flagship Xperia S to JellyBean 4.1.2 in last month. But Samsung flagship 2012 (Galaxy S 2) got it I think during the begining of this year.

Htc? I heard that they r going to stop updating One S anymore. But galaxy s2 will get updated till 4.2.1. It came a long distance from Gingerbread

I don't tell that Samsung is the best in updating their devices, but I think they r faster than others. Above all if u need fastest updates then a nexus or googled version is much more appropriate

some online resources predict that the update will come in Nov or Dec 2013.

[Galaxy Note II General] mufaddalezzi:
yeah that's also one major disadvantage for custom roms..S3 will get first 4.2.2 then Galaxy Grand will follow then in November/December Note 2 will get the update after Note 3 will be released..I'm also curios if note 2 will get the camera features because every leaked version of 4.2.2 for S3 and Grand have none of the camera features..note 2 might also not get it because the key point will be selling of Note 3. :(

[Galaxy Note II General] Alexei Volkoff:
The time Samsung is taking to update the Note 2 is starting to get ridiculous.:mad: After all, it is still their current production phablet.
[Galaxy Note II General] mufaddalezzi:
Even Mega 5.7" and 6.3" have 4.2.2 and they are low specification wise compared to Note 2..Samsung is forgetting that Note 2 was their first smartphone to be pre installed with 4.1.1 out of the box..poor support in updates(now i know everyone will hate me and tell me samsung is best compared to others in updates) but come one its your current best phablet selling with top specs and its not even a year old maybe its just about business that samsung is doing and not supporting customers i bet they won't release the update before Note 3 being announced and even if it gets released before note 3 then the update won't have some of those cool features(even seen in S3 and Galaxy Grand 4.2.2 leaked) so basically if Note 2 gets 4.2.2 before Note 3 announcement then you better know that it wont include some of the features(including the new camera) because it might affect Note 3 sales :(
[Galaxy Note II General] tomixdev:
i just want the new status bar
[Galaxy Note II General] mat9v:
Actually, I don't think Samsung cares so much about updates impact on new phone sales. XDA community is fairly small compared to whole potential consumer base. It's debatable if the info about new version of Android would even reach respectable part of potential clients and if the new futures (versus new hardware - speed) would impact buying decision. Most benchmarks available for consumers would have values from initial release of hardware anyway. On the other hand being regarded as a firm that releases updates and fixes for it's products fast and for a long time would certainly help build Image and good reputation. From marketing standpoint (looking @ product adverts) Android version is not very prominent future, rather hardware, Gigahertz, Gigabytes, Gigapixels and inches decides sales, along with benchmark results. Special functions like SPen are important to distinguish it from competition, everyone has the same Android and consumer almost never know what is the difference between 4.1.2 and 4.2.2.

I think the release schedule for new software is rather simple, new hardware version (with it's new software) will bring new software to older phone in a couple months. Not because of marketing but concentrating workforce on new releases - once all futures are working in this new product it's mostly easy to strip them some, marry them to older hardware and OTA them. So I would point new Android for Note 2 for.... 1-2 months after Note 3 is released.

[Galaxy Note II General] hendog4385:
They're probably going to release it after the note 3 releases, since the update will make the note 2 similar to the s4, why release an update that will make your older product just as good as your newest product before your newest product is released, it's all about making the most money

[Galaxy Note II General] jetbruceli:
No one is buying the s4 because of its version of Android. They are buying it for its hardware and software. If they wanted only s4 sales then they would not have made the s4 mini, zoom and active.

When the s3 received its 4.1.2 there was also the s2, note and s3 mini with the same version of android.

They aren't releasing 4.2.2 probally because it's not yet stable or maybe they are waiting for 4.3.3
[Galaxy Note II General] mani0608:
Dude, Nobody can be perfect always. Also Sammobile is not Samsung. If you want correct information always then Samsung is the only source. Its all samsung's decision to release or postponed an update. But i accept Sammobile is not/cannot be always right.
