I just wish samsung would optimise their apps once in a while. Like s note etc. I have a sony smartphone and they update their stock apps on a regular basis directly through play store. I mean what's the reason behind galaxy apps when they won't even update their own apps?

I can't believe there are still no real competitors to the note tablet in the android market! I love the note taking capabilities, that is in most cases the preferred input method for a tablet device (it's so mobile! You could carry around a keyboard but then you could also use a laptop...). But samsung sucks. Their support for this device is virtually non existent.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] ¿Will-it-Blend?:
Samsung has pushed at least 10 or so updates to this tablet. They're still updating it as of now and lollipop will be arriving soon. What else do you want? Snote will surely be updated when Lollipop drops just like with Kit Kat. Boy, people complain too much.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] Gadianton:
Ok, a little off topic, but since we are talking about S-Note, I was under the impression that S-Note would autosync with Evernote and that you could open and edit the files in Evernote. I have the auto-sync working fine, but Evernote will not allow edits. Is this the correct behavior?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] ¿Will-it-Blend?:
I use Evernote as well and no it will not allow edits itself if that is what you mean. You can only edit through Snote. Their is also an Snote windows application if you're trying to edit your Snotes on a PC.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] clouds5:
Im not talking about firmware upgrades. Samsung surely takes their time with upgrading but the system is very stable and works just fine! I use a custom Rom btw and I'm very happy with it. Because of the hardware (resolution vs. processing power) I don't think it will ever run at 60fps in all cases. But I'm fine with that.

I'm talking about apps. The browser, snote, gallery etc the stock apps from samsung they never changed and they never got any updates. And snote the main selling point of this tablet (at least for me) is far from perfect. Usable of course but imagine they would add proper pdf support? Make turning pages quicker. UI optimisation. Etc. And what im trying to say that doesn't need to be a whole firmware update. Samsung has its own app store they could just release an update for that app.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] vista1984:
i think i got snote update before. snote app is not perfect with it's pretty good for me.

yeah i still think we will get 5.0,.

Check out Albe95's thread with ported S5 apps for a more recent version of S Note: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2677686

Granted, the thread is over a year old, but the apps are still an ”upgrade” from the stock apps on the Note 2014, even with the most recent system update.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] dk206:
Note 2014 edition will definitely get a lollipop update. Thanks
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] internetpilot:
My wife's and son's Galaxy Tab S just got the Lollipop update. Not entirely sure why Samsung wouldn't reward it's longer term customers by updating the Note 10.1 2014 first (if they actually are going to update it), especially since those customers undoubtedly paid a lot more for the Note 10.1 2014 than the Tab S.

This would be exactly the reason why I've moved on to a Windows tablet. No rooting/warranty/knox BS and no waiting months, if not even a year, for an update that should've come a long time ago. If CyanogenMod can already have Lollipop up and going on so many devices, then why can't a tech giant like Samsung? It's ridiculous and just continues to sour my whole experience with this device.

I don't know what I'm complaining about though. When Kitkat broke my external SD card access, I was forced to root my Note 10.1 2014 to get that functionality back and haven't been able to take any OTA updates since even though I'm stock rooted and running the stock recovery. So even when they come out with a Lollipop update (like in 6 months), I won't be able to install it anyway.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] ultramag69:
We never got 4.4.4 update, what makes people so sure we'll get Lollipop? If it's something someone read on the net this means as much as the effort to put it there - nothing...

Unless equivocally put out by Samsung (who never say they are going to do it until they do) anything you read means d!ck and with ALL the later devices out why would they give it to us, lets face it, a 1 1/2 year old device...
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] supergrobi94:
I don't know if this is really a good sign, but in the Note 4 Lollipop FW, I found some codes, which contains many device names and already have Lollipop, like Zero, J=S4, K=S5, H=Note3, T_Project=Note4, chagall=TabS, some unknown devices like garda_project, hestia_project, melius_project, but also lt03=P600/P900? It seems that they are still working on it, because it's “private-final“, if it's really finished then it would be “public-final“ (Found in SystemUI/Feature.smali) :)

Well, you're just further making my point. My newly purchased 1.5 year old Asus Transformer T100 will be getting the Windows 10 update for free. Unlike Windows, Android is actually an opensource OS, and yet we may not even get the upgrade from Samsung? Seriously? And even if we do get one, it's probably going to be locked down even more than the previous update, which was already locked down just as much as a frickin' iOS device.

I'm going to have to unsubscribe from this topic, because the more I read and think about it, the more stupid I feel for buying this device.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] indyred99:
My Samsung S5 on T-Mobile went from 4.2.2 to 5.0 without ever getting the 4.4.4 update. Doesn't mean we won't see an official update.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] ultramag69:
Your S5 is barely 6 -12 months old.....

The note 10.1 2014 came out around August 2013... That's 1 1/2 years old... 6 months is almost the point of being obsolete in the mobile world...
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] petitbreton:
I don't think we will get Lollipop at all. We never got anything from Samsung at all about that matter, only some websites stating that the Galaxy note 10.1 2014 should get Lollipop.

In my opinion, Samsung released that tablet and almost forgot about it the minute it was on the shelves. In almost 18 months, we got an upgrade from 4.3 to 4.4.2 and then only a recent minor 4.4.2 upgrade while they could have updated it to Lollipop if they had wanted to. They never upgraded the apps in 18 months and probably never will.

The Galaxy S was a hit and never got ICS although it was technically possible to update it, the Galaxy S3, another hit, never got 4.4 outside Korea. Why would they release Lollipop on a tablet that did not sell that much ?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] blindmanpb:
The Galaxy SIII is running 4.4.2 on AT&T, Sprint, & Verizon in the US.

Seems more like an issue of other carriers not wanting to bother updating the SIII than Samsung not making it available.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] truckerdewd:
The wifi versions were released in October of 2013. The T-Mobile version wasn't released until June of 2014 which is less than a year ago. Verizon's was released in March of last year so the LTE versions may still get it since they are only a year or less old.

---------- Post added at 10:36 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:29 PM ----------

The original S3 (non LTE) on T-Mobile never got updated beyond 4.3 born did the T-Mobile Note 2. The LTE version of the S3 got 4.4.2. I think some carriers don't want to update but would rather have to upgrade to a newer device. But in the case of the Note 10.1 2014, there isn't another option for an Android tablet this size so they may, and the key word here is "may", update it. Just my thoughts
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] blindmanpb:
Oh, right, I forgot there were 3G only versions of the SIII.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] truckerdewd:
No it was 4G only. I wasn't happy when I found out that Tmobile only had the non LTE version at first. Needless to say I only kept that phone a couple of months before I upgraded to the Note 2
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] md1008:
When the s3 first came out on TMO they didn't have LTE and at that point had no plans for LTE. Truth be told I was still pulling 20MBPS at some locations on their HSPA+. Although I do admit that it always did have high pings, which I really only noticed when I did speed test
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] torickray:
I got my lollipop update for note 4 2 days ago. However, beside material design, some of the features were removed. Like lockscreen animation is no longer available.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] clouds5:
If we get a stable and smooth update to lollipop I'm all for it. But if they decide not to bring it it's not the end of the world. I'm very happy with the current performance of my Tablet (with custom rom xKat and custom Kernel).

To be honest because I need the device heavily for work I'm much more interested in getting a new Note tablet all together. I really hope they take all the new design philosophies from the S6 (especially on the software side) and make an awesome new note tablet this year.

Even better: Someone like google, motorola, sony or even apple decides to make a tablet with full stylus integration, because the only reason I have a Samsung tablet is because they are the only ones that offer something like this (I'm not really counting the Surface as a tablet because it's not really a mobile device neither in terms of hardware nor software).

[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] supergrobi94:
Seriously, I would be very happy, if the Note ever gets a taste of lollipop, even if it should come in Q3, but better late then never and with less bugs. #PositiveThinking

But which model? P600,601,605 or 607. That's the big question...
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] atg284:
honestly I am ok with the current software. If they drop lollipop out of nowhere for the note 10.1 2014 I feel there will be minor to major issues. Mainly battery life issues. My galaxy S5 is having battery life issues on lollipop. I suspect certain apps not playing well with the new ART runtime.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] rs1990:
You probably don't want to hear this, but I was having a ton of issues with my GS5 as well after the update and eventually had to do a factory reset. It's actually much better now, so you might want to try that. Only issue left is that Spotify seems to reboot my phone when I play it for a while.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] Mussels84:
the same applied to note 4 and S4 as well. factory reset is highly recommended.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] dlang123:
For the most part, my note 4 upgrade has been pretty great, took a day or so for it to fall in line, but after that, haven't had much issues. My Note 10.1 2014 on the other hand, is mostly unusable these days to do short standby battery life.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] Will Rickards:
I replaced the battery in mine. I torture mine in the sense that I play Clash of Clans on it and leave it running. So lots of screen on time and cpu cycles. It used to last a very short time off the charger. And even on the charger sometimes was losing the battle. Now I get an hour or so off the charger while playing, I haven't actually timed it. If I'm not playing it lasts a lot longer. Hardly loses any charge overnight off the charger. And on the charger it doesn't seem to lose charge while playing.

Taking it apart is kind of a pain but it goes back together without any problems. I got the battery from here. No longer available from them but they might come back in stock.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] rs1990:
I'm confused...this is just a general statement, right? Not to be read that you somehow got it to Lollipop and are having issues?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] Sweep29:
Can't agree more. Getting rid of my Samsung Gear 2 Neo as there is no support at all. Samsung/Tizen seem content to offer a few wallpapers to keep Gear 2 owners happy. Soon be getting rid of my Note 3 too as there are superior phones from China now which leave the Note 3 in the dark ages.

Hopefully our P600/P605s are not far behind.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] raneym305:
As one of the comments points out, and I'm paraphrasing here, the fact that Samsung has put forth such a tremendous effort to provide as many users with the lollipop update as quickly as they have is not something that should be overlooked. Samsung has rolled out Android 5.x to more devices and in less time than any other manufacturer.

As a former Galaxy S3 & S4 user, I can honestly say that the reputation that Samsung so infamously, and appropriately, earned for their lack of device support during those years is far less disappointing than the "support" from Motorola/Google/Lenovo. As Lollipop was rolled out while Motorola Mobile was still under the Google umbrella, you'd think that Lollipop would be old news for Moto users by now; but not only are the flagship Droid line (like my Droid Ultra/Maxx) and the 1st Gen vanilla Moto line (like my wife's 2014 Moto X) still waiting for the update, there is absolutely no transparency as to when/if it will happen when compared to how vocal Samsung has been about it.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] Svartsyn333:
Of course it is. That's why ROM developers say you have to do a clean install when you make a jump from one version number to another.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] lecorbusier:
I am mighty disappointed by lack of custom roms for the P605. With the most expensive and most powerful devices being big sellers, at least when coming to phones, I expected many official and inofficial ports of various roms, an official CM or AOKP, preferably. Before, I stayed with more value-for money oriented devices, and can call it luck that both could be upgraded from stock 4.0/4.1 to CM11 4.4.4 unofficial, but just stable enough to act as a daily driver. Thus beating **** and pee outta the P605 so far.

Only some attempts, reaching Alpha state before becoming abandoned, and stock rom mods. Okay, Kitkat is still good for now. As there seems to be 4.4.4 for the P607T, that may be ported to the P605, as a final update.

Samsung doesn't get a pass, they pump our so many disposable phones and almost clones of flag ships and tablets. Why does Samsung need a million variants of the s3 to be on prepaid networks.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] md1008:
Wow that was a long rant. I just don't see why they don't stick to the basics, have a lower, middle, flagship and phablet. Your on point with the many variations of tablets. Note 10.1, note pro, tab pro, tab s etc. Technically speaking the note 10.1 is broken down into 2 tablets one with Qualcomm and one with Exynos.

This is where I feel companies like Google(Nexus) and Apple have it right. HTC is alright however mid way into 2014 they also started pumping out various desire and "E" variations. For the prepaid market.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] lecorbusier:
That is good news, and i'm glaf that i didn't even root it so far, to grab the final update simply via OTA, and have the latest baseband firmware, which may be required by a future custom rom.

On my phone it proved impossible to revert to any stock rom, the manufacturer's usb drivers and windows tools no longer recognized it, except in Download Mode, don't even know whether the Note has such, the driver installs the necessary virtual COM port. For ADB and Fastboot I need the Google SDK drivers, but these won't provide virtual com ports and modems. Don't want to run into such difficulties here.

[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] Stevethegreat:
Just a quick note: Since I've owned both Tab S and Note 2014, hardware wise the only big difference of Tab S is the bigger, sharper, AMOLED display which is a work of art and -to this day- the best screen my eyes have ever seen. Going back to the LCD mess of Note 2014 made me miss Tab S more. The screen has about 25% more total subpixels and the difference in sharpness is surprising. Also using the "accurate colors" mode on Tab S makes the screen incomparably more beautiful than any screen in existence. Deep, beautiful, accurate colors, I saw "planet earth" on it and I was in awe.

Having said *those* it's actually a downgrade (hardware wise) compared to our Notes. It has no Wacom digitizer and even though it uses the same SoC it comes with a smaller battery. Basically all we need is a screen like Tab S's , the weight too (1lb) and the SoC/S-pen sensitivity of the newer note/s phones and we're set.

Our tablet is already almost perfect, just give it a proper screen, a faster SoC and a sliiightly better pen and it becomes the best tablet ever created :p

Just switch to the "Dark Side" of ASUS and get their T100-TA Windows 8 tablet, and unlike the Note 10.1 2014, ASUS actually included a hardware keyboard in the deal (while Samsung didn't ever even produce one as an accessory -- another bone to pick about Samsung lacking support of the Note tablet line).

I still have my Note 10.1 2014, but I can't remember the last time I used it. My 12-year-old son was using it a couple of weeks ago when his iPad was getting its screen replaced. It was a rather expensive purchase to just use it as a iPad backup for my pre-teen.

Very happy with the Samsung hardware. Software support, not so much. I wish they would build the next Nexus tablet... and Google would drive the updates.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] Pazzu510:
More than not happy i am preoccupied by the hardware a little bit. When new, the tablet had a small padding where the pen was detected with almost no quality and i dont know if it is my imagination or not but it seems that the padding is getting bigger and bigger. Does anyone else has this problem? Does anyone else with a surface 3 or surface 3 pro(Different digitizing technology) have the problem?

I really like windows 8, even more than winodws 10, but if any tablet has no active digitizer it is a no-no from me; also, every digitizer on the market seems to be wacom based(every samsung, lenovo, htc, etc), I dont know if all wacom based digitizers has this padding problem but i would like to know how different technology perform to make my decision on jumping ship.

If this was what it is plus no padding problem plus nexus software plus two apps(Note taking and Screenshot notes and share) this would be the perfect tablet.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] Stevethegreat:
There are chinese Windows tabs for dirt cheap. Bought one, still no proper tablet/touch apps. I don't think Windows tries to win a stake to the tablet market with that attitude. Desktop is great for 12 inches and up. At 10 inches it feels too restricted.

After having used both 8 and 10 inch windows tablets for a week or so I think Microsoft was wise to make their Surface Pro Line at 12 inches. To this day it's the best tablet in existence, anything less and one has to go with Android or iOS.

I understand that you like the small windows tabs, but I think you're a minority. To someone "spoilt" by Android's media consumption prowess Windows seem poor and to those wanting a productive machine they're already on ultrabooks/macbooks.
