Well, the pattern becomes obvious now.
N1: 2.1 -> 2.2 -> 2.3 (2 upgrades)
NS: 2.3 -> 4.0 -> 4.1 (2 upgrades)
GN: 4.0 -> 4.1 -> 4.2 -> ? (X upgrades)
N4: 4.2 -> (X upgrades)

lol, Jelly Bean 4.2 will be the last update for my Galaxy Nexus if this trend continues. But don't forget that, Galaxy Nexus is the first phone to get ISC 4.0 and Jelly Bean 4.1.

The devs will do that Job. Don worry u ll be able to get 4.2!

That's why I was hesitant on getting a Galaxy Nexus. But it seems with renewed popularity in the Nexus program, they might go further with updates.
Nexus One and Nexus S were pretty big failures. When they put the Galaxy Nexus on the Play Store earlier this year, I think a lot of people were attracted to its $350 price, and with the N4 popularity is crazy

How to Root Samsung Galaxy S Running XWJW1 Gingerbread 2.3.6 Firmware
The Samsung Galaxy S is a remarkable phone and is considered to be the device that catapulted Samsung’s success prior to the release of its famed Galaxy S2. Featuring an amazing 4.0 inch Super AMOLED display, the Galaxy S proved to be a hit among many consumers in its category.
One of its biggest plus factor has to be its display and processor that make this beast a worthwhile companion for day-to-day use. With so many dual-core devices already flooding the market, the Galaxy S may be overshadowed in terms of specifications and functionality. But, thanks to the developers of the underground community, the Galaxy S can still catch-up with the latest trends by simply having root access.

In February this year, Adobe announced that it will no longer develop further versions of its Flash Player for mobile browsers, and said that the beta version of Chrome for Android will no longer be supported. However, the company added that its Flash Player will continue to run on the stock Android browser. Today, Adobe is announcing that there will be no certified implementations of Flash Player on Android 4.1 a.k.a. Jelly Bean. Adobe added that beginning August 15, it will stop new installations of Flash from Google Play. However, security updates and other vital patches will continue for its existing Flash users.
Adobe added that the easiest way to ensure ongoing access to Flash Player on Android 4.0 and previous versions of the platform is to use certified devices that have Flash Player installed on them by the manufacturer. Android users running uncertified Android 4.0 or earlier devices will have until August 15 to get the Flash Player. “If a device is upgraded from Android 4.0 to Android 4.1, the current version of Flash Player may exhibit unpredictable behavior, as it is not certified for use with Android 4.1. Future updates to Flash Player will not work. We recommend uninstalling Flash Player on devices which have been upgraded to Android 4.1,” Adobe added.

There's been a replacement for at least a couple years, just not as widely used as Flash. HTML5 is the future though (or so we're told).

Its our future, all right. Flash is a 20 year old technology, its time we moved on. HTML5 seriously needs to catch on, Flash is still widely used

Apparently the OP is trying to get this rom ported for use on the TB; I would not be trying to flash it on your phone.
If this is an aosp build it will be a little while longer before it would be functional. The ril is barely working for the current aosp ics rom we have.

SM-G531H have similar Soc. .Lollipop Update for SM-G355H, already confirmed?

After Core Prime and other Mid-range devices got an Official Lollipop Update (5.0.2), there comes a Final Phase. .In the previous phase, Core 2 update status was "pending", now it changed to "approved" in the Final Phase. Means our device is already confirmed to get an Android 5.0 update. . I don't know if this is really true. .But I hope Android 5.0 will come to our device .
BTW, what does "final phase" mean?, it means, the last mid-range devices to get Android 5.0 update?, what do you think guys?

Some news:
As far as I know, Galaxy Grand Prime Value Edition SM-G531H (3G model) will be launched soon with Android 5.0.2 out of the box. It has SC8830 spreadtrum chipset which is similar to our device SM-G355H. It has 1GB of ram. .I'm wondering if Samsung use SM-G531H firmware as a base ROM for updating Core 2 to Android Lollipop, because I guess that there are only small changes of SM-G531H' rom to make it running on Core 2 models. .
Yes, i've already read it, I Hope soon we have Lollipop on out device, it will be great
I hope Samsung releases it in month or two... After all its a major update...
@Azhero @om.shiva For me it's an official news, and i think soon we have lollipop on GC2 i didn't think that page will post some fake info. What do you think?
Looking at page I think it's true news...I would've tried to(still learning) build recovery and 5.1 for our devices instead of waiting for official...but source is huge in size....
Is This Info Really True????
Are You Guys sure that Samsung Galaxy Core 2 Devices Will Get Official Lollipop Update From Samsung??

Update LG Wine Smart from Android 4 to 5 or 6?

Apologies for posting here but there is no forum for the LG Wine Smart (D486). Mine currently has stock 4.4.2 KitKat. Aw remember that? LG update app no longer functions correctly as it was shut down in 2020.
Is there any way to update this to 5 or preferably 6? There is an app I need that isn't compatible with Android 4.
You have to find
1. A Custom ROM suitable to phone ( specs: 1 GB RAM, 4 GB max storage )
2. If found, a Custom Recovery suitable to phone to flash the Custom ROM found
Many thanks. Sorry for the questions but if you were me, where would you look first?
Alternatively I wanted to make it clear that this phone officially shipped with Android 5.1 later in its life. I just happen to have an earlier 4.4.2 version. Where might I find the official 5.1 ROM and flash it?
Edit: I have found some options that I will try at http://lg-roms.com/lg-firmware/lg-h410/h41010d/2879
I'm not having any luck @jwoegerbauer . It turns out 4.4.2 was the latest official ROM for this phone.
Would you be able to assist a little? If you were me, where would you look first (as in URLs) to get a custom Android 6 ROM and recovery?
I'd like to update to Android 6 or higher. All the apps I want to install require Android 6+.
I'd just need to make sure it can recognise input from the LG Wine Smart D486 keypad.
