this is what they say every time. i'm afraid that note 2 is not going to receive it. i lost my hope.
[Galaxy Note II General] LoVeRice:
Is there any 3yr old android device (except nexus) that still a receive os update?
[Galaxy Note II General] resudo:
Don't worry, we are getting the update. It's just going to be available only for some regions. It it were to be cancelled other Samsung regions would have told us by now.

iPhone.

:crying:
[Galaxy Note II General] yahyoh:
Yeah i swear this kind of things make me hate android...like iPhone 4s getting ios9 meanwhile android m will probably only will be on like the recent android flagships... ;_;

And it will took manufacturers like 2-4 months to release the update...in the meantime time Google would be probably released newer version...so android update system is fragmented af and mostly because of Google and lazy ass manufacturers ughh

Edit: for lollipop update im start to loosing the hope theres no signs what so ever that's sammy is working on the update not even a leaked test build so yeah :/

Actually isn't. If Samsung says that we will get a Lollipop in June I would see it on June not on December. But I see that not only Note 2 users can complain. I'm a Note 4 user too and I'm complaining about last 5.0 update. It's terrible. I would see 5.1 with fixed memory leak and may it can fix this bug but for now I don't really know when they'll release it. Shame on you Samsung. I can't believe but probably I'll go for an iPhone. Even 4S is still getting latest iOS... I'll buy newest iPhone and will stay with it until updates won't come anymore.

[Galaxy Note II General] :
I knew that Samsung's update policy was a mess but this is really ridiculous. The article and those comments were fun to read though. I don't understand why it's so hard to say something now like an official press release. I mean the phone will be three years old soon. All this bickering from different Samsung departments is counterproductive. and make it seem that Samsung is not organized at all. I doubt there will be an update although I was hoping for one since my S3 LTE has the same specs as the Note 2 LTE and building ROMs would be even easier for both devices.

Even Sony manages to update an 2.5 year old phone. Hell, iPhone 4s which is almost 4 years old is still receiving official support from Apple via iOS 9. Samsung needs to reduce their amount of phones to a minimum. I just laugh at all their low-budget phones having 5.x while some of their flagship phones have seen nothing.
[Galaxy Note II General] vagsvag:
Read the message up of yours quoting, this user saying that the Sammy lollipop update is the best and better he never saw etc etc, but he doesn't own one saying at other message he saw at his uncle phone, friends etc.......

Shame for sure at Samsung my friend not only for this but for the 550 euros phone with sds faulty emmc chip which sailed to all of us, for the i9100 sii too when released the 4.0.4 update and the kernel they made bricked some thousands phones, for the Knox too, they left free all at start unlocked bootloader no recovery check nothing to spy any new idea was coming from free development and after.....

I have already spent too much time replying to you. Just enjoy your stock Android and let the rest of us hope for an official lollipop release.

Until then stop spamming the thread with useless OT posts.

You are the spammer here posting info that you haven't. You said you tried this you tried the other you posting opinion for an android os that you ever haven't seen and trying to provoke yourself like a guru who knows everything.

[Galaxy Note II General] vadim6385:
I thought the same, when I switched from note 2 to nexus 5, that I would get the latest Android versions, and everything would be awesome.

However, what I got was a phone that was almost in every parameter (maybe except the CPU and 4G connectivity) inferior to my N7100, and buggy and "undercooked" OS.

Just three months after, I sold the Nexus at almost half the price I bought it new, and got myself a second hand N7105.

BTW, about the iPhone. With every major update, there is a spike in Google search statistics with the words "iphone slow". Speak to any iphone user, and he will tell you how IOS 7/8/9 screwed up his until then perfectly good phone (same thing with nexus owners and lollipop). Iphone 4s does get update to IOS 8, but it doesn't work very well on his four year old phone, and it almost looks like it was made to make you buy a new model.

If you go from Note to anything that isn't Note, you will be extremely disappointed. Galaxy Note, from 2 onwards, is the best phone there is, and the only phone to switch to from Note, is a newer model Note. The others are just not it.

[Galaxy Note II General] julian67:
Well some of us also like multiwindow, proper support for audio out in dock, to use that strange stylus thing, to have working wifi-direct, power saving mode that does actually give huge battery life, graphics drivers that truly support the hardware, video player which doesn't crash, 4G which works, and so on. I know that sounds harsh but it is true . I have been using both stock firmwares and also CM and various custom AOSP based ROMs for 4 years now on Archos, B+N and Samsung devices and on some hardware a 3rd party ROM is really a big improvement while on others it can be a poor experience. I tried ROMs on my GT-N7105 and it's OK, not terrible and not amazing, but you do lose features, and those are features I like so I prefer Samsung's firmware but with Nova launcher. On my B+N Nook HD CM11 was a massive improvement over stock. On my Samsung Note I (GT-N7000) the original firmware, with all its faults, is the only one without laughably poor battery life (for those xda members who have forgotten: the Note series with original firmware actually has battery life in tens of hours and even days! It's true!). On my Galaxy Tab 2 7" (P3110) Samsung and CM are just about as good as each other (I went back to Samsung just because a CM update managed to corrupt my partition table and at that point I realised I was bored with weekly updates on what is quite a basic and unexciting device).

So if Samsung do offer an Android 5* update for the Note II I will be interested. And if they don't, well their KitKat firmware is in fact really excellent. I'm not crazy about the launcher and associated UI so I run Nova. Guess what? It looks and works exactly like a ROM running Nova except I also have multiwindow and full S-Pen support and huuuuge battery life.

But I have to admit I don't think Samsung will ever offer a newer firmware for the Note II. Why would they? We already paid and nobody is buying these things new any more. But fingers crossed.......throw salt over shoulder....avoid black cats crossing path.....get on knees and pray hahahahahahahahahaha

[Galaxy Note II General] ryancell:
Well I decided to flash omnirom 4.4.4 final on my wifes phone (I wanted a rom I was familiar with and I knew was simple/stable for her). Since I did this, that means there is probably a chance they will announce a lollipop release soon lol. Will be my luck I move on past the stock rom, they will announce a new one probably. Just how stuff like that works. I'd expect it any day if my usual luck goes like it usually does.

Either way, if they do I can always flash to stock and get the new lollipop build.

I can't help thinking that a tweet from 3 customer service is about as reliable as one of those UK phone company "check your 3G/4G coverage" maps which has a similar relationship to reality as astrology. These guys are not just support, they are also PR, so they will say just about anything that doesn't constitute a commitment or carry a cost, so long as it might help people like them, or at least go away and bother someone else.

I hope I'm wrong but as the Note II series is now 3 generations old (and probably about to be 4) and hasn't been supplied by Samsung distributors for a long time, it doesn't seem likely that Samsung is spending time and money on an upgrade. Why would they? Most people who buy Samsung phones don't read the technical press and will never even care what version of Android their phone runs. And most people who get their phone from a carrier will just go along with that carrier's upgrade process and get a new device. I just can't see Samsung caring about this or doing anything.

Now I wrote all this Samsung will probably announce new bug-free, feature rich firmware tomorrow morning :o
