I think the first device, wich gets 4.4 is note 3. But maybe they are just rolling out 4.2.2, because UBMI3 is now stable enough for everyone? But if we really get an update, I heard that the kernel maybe will be 3.4 :good:

i hope so too ...

right now with all the 4.3 issues on S3, I think that if we are ever going to get an upgrade, it will be directly 4.4 :angel:

There will be no such thing. 4.2.2. is the end of the road

Yep,obviously you are right @OurJerry i do believe the same. 4.2.2 is the last update for our device. No other latest Android version will be blessed to our device.

I asked samsung and they said thay don't know yet. I guess it means no

i don't think so
the S2 was shipped with 2.3.6 and then they get 4.0.4 and after that jelly bean so why would we only get 1 upgrade

Because. In the past the s 2 was Samsung's flagship device and so they have to keep the customers stay.

Although it is a probability that 4.2.2 maybe the last update for the S2 Plus, its quite unreasonable for them to do that considering the device coming out only in the beginning of this year, Most Android devices would get support for around 18 months after their initial release.. almost 12 months have gone, so it probably will be 6 months or something that they could release an update. But its likely that they might not. Who knows?

4.2.2 is th end

samsung has to support every phone for 18 months ... it is true see this
http://www.sammobile.com/2013/12/06...ace-3-galaxy-core-and-other-low-cost-devices/
..but maybe we are not geting 4.4 .. but i'm sure will get 4.3 update .. it is samsung guys ... the best in support .. i hope

i think will get 4.3 ..and we wont get 4.4 ... unless jb 5 ..released .. before 18 months expired ..

We will get most of the 4.4 goodies in all the ported roms, thanks to more devs for our phone.

I talked to samsung the said there will be 4.3 nd 4.4 for our lovely device

Leaked it or not...anyway it was rolled out by samsung without any notifications and supported by kies for future fixes. Even Russian off. web doesn't mention about it in a support tab. It is a test stage. OS debugging on device per country is more comfortable, than receive international bug reports with similar contents and filtrate it (by language for ex.) in fixing process. Russia has the worst mobile network coverage in country zone so I think it is the main and best reason to debug device in these conditions. (A lot of russian users are complained about network problems on Galaxy S Advance).

Could you tell which ROM uses? and Kernel ...
I'm about to downgrade and would like to try one last time.
You could share as experienced user.
I would also like to say that the JB STOCK ROM that Samsung has presented is at least good.
For now the word is frustrating. You use begins to like and suddenly something strange happens.

This is not completly true. Only flashing custom kernel with Odin will increase binary counter. And maybe custom firmware, but one root method use firmware with su file integrated, and it do not increase bc. So for us now, only flashing custom kernel with odin increase it. And there is no Odin flashable kernel files for JB now on xda. And ecerything you install without Odin will not increase bc.

Yes I would have thought so but not until around September 2013. This is a guess based on how slow Samsung are to release Android versions.
I have the P3110 and I am still waiting for them to release the UK 4.1.2 firmware
Google released 4.1 on July 9, 2012. (Samsung still to finish fully releasing 4.1.2 nearly 7 months later!)
Google released 4.2 on November 13, 2012 which is nearly 4 months ago.
They might not even release it... depends when the Galaxy Tab 3 comes out.. after all why should they update the Tab 2 if they want you to buy the Tab 3!

I guess that GTab 3 as a dual core device breaks the rumour that Android 5.0 will require a quadcore device..
may tab3 will never see KLP its will just get 4.3+ and value pack
I don´t think that Samsung will release 4.3 for Galaxy Tab 2. I get´s cheaper and Samsung don´t need to make Money with it. I think Tab 3 will get it.

Samsung is upgrading the first gen of Galaxy Tabs (Tab Plus, Tab 7.7) to Jelly Bean, they were released a long time earlier than GTab2 so Samsung will not 'kill' our device with only two updates...
But if Samsung include Multiwinfdows in 4.2 update, i won't need 4.3 exactly..

I think, XDA developers will port new iteration of Android for TAB 2.
Switching to Nexus
I really liked my Samsung Note and Samsung Tab 2 but these update issues have helped me decide that I am soon buying a Nexus 7 and Nexus 5 when it comes out.
My LG Nexus 4 has finally received the 4.3 update, but the Tab 2 is still waiting (forever?).
So I think by now, it is fair to say that the Tab will NOT get 4.3 which is a crying shame! I love my N4 on JB 4.3! Its so much smoother and finally the screen sensitivity has been addressed.....
i am using unofficial CM 10.2(4.3)...it had some root issues but it has been solved.it is still early but i am surprised how well almost everything works...there is tread here on xda in development section

---------- Post added at 11:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:06 PM ----------
Hahaha I just remembered that Sammy sait that they will provide many mid range devices with Kitkat, coz it's lighter than JB ! ROFL
Maclaw said, that, the US version of the s3 mini, and from what i learned, the "US" version is the AT&T variant, i seriously don't think that Sammsung is goin to invest in the few hundreads(?) of AT&T S3 Mini version (i think it has express name or something), when they can invest in the vastly international version sold in USA and almost all the american continent (the GT-i8790L).
Anyway time will tell maybe later this month Sammobile is going to have STE Novathor firmwares of S3 Mini.
Even then we have more than amazing dev's and we are in the golden age for our device, also i think that by years end most of us will be having new cellphones.

It's better...with 4.1.2 samsung hasn't working well
Yeah we wouldn't get a decent OS anyway
I don't think the rom is itself would be good. I don't like the touchwiz experience that much. But it would mean newer kernel sources, and newer binary blobs, such as OMX components, Mali libs, etc... All those could improve the current state of Team Canjica's CM11 (which I'm currently happily using).
Given all the 4.4.2 ROMs floating around, it wouldn't be much of a hassle for Samsung to make an upgrade (not taking Touchwiz into account).

They have said once beanstalk is ported they'd give it a go.

I'm working on it, could be interesting if we can use this kernel on our device

I am unsure about specs but you might visit the Samsung Galaxy player 4.0 and 5.0 forums, they are at least same gen devices and I saw lollipop is built on it.

Lollipop is a ram eater. I tried it on the razrm and it didn't go well. Wound up reverting to kitkat. I'm sorry but at some point even if you can, you shouldn't and I think all devs are realizing this.

I think people should just run the latest that's available, or get a new phone. A Moto E is 3 times the phone the Infuse is, and can be had for $30 if you buy it at the right time. Plus it runs Lollipop out of the box. Methinks trying to run 5.0 on a 4 yr old device is near impossible.

Hell i haven't seriously used my Infuse in over 2 years, i just like to see just how much it can handle, I was a bit surprised when it took KK. Now just waiting to see if it can handle Lollipop.
