[Q] Will this tab be getting an ICS update?

Just wondering if the Samsung galaxy tab plus will be getting the ice cream sandwich update, heard news that it might and might not be getting it, so I'm not really sure. Any 1? XD

I researched this before I bought my Plus. I would not have bought it without assurances from Samsung that this would indeed upgrade to ICS.
I, for one, cannot wait!!!!

Are you sure about Q1? The announcement seemed to suggest the S2 and galaxy R were Q1 and all others would follow.

Of course converting Q1 2012 from the "Samsung Timezone" to UTC means it's actually Q4 2012.

Well, whatever it is, I just hope the update will come as soon as possible!

So do I... But from my experience with my past 2 Samsung devices... They tend to push back release dates 4-5 times before actually releasing the update. (Moment and Epic 4g)
Although maybe I just had bad luck in picking those two particular devices.

Actually Samsung is pretty timely with updates - as long as there is NOT a North American carrier in the loop (So T-Mobile TabPlus users are probably screwed.)
Once there's a North American carrier in the loop - you're screwed with almost any device from any manufacturer. The Tab 10.1 received updates in a fairly timely fashion, the I9000 did too, and the I9100 seems to be coming along fine.

I am surprised
I am very concerned and surprised that Chinese tablets are coming with ICS 4.3, even Sony S tablet has already updated to ICS via OTA and our device still has the same version that is Honeycomb. The most amazing thing is that Samsung is mentioning that our device is starting to receive the updates but when??? They are saying the same thing from long time ago.

there are no ICS updates for this devices...???
just curious, samsung forget this tab

Nothing yet, I think Samsung will not update it.

Don't think there will be, since SS just released Tab 2 which is an ICS tab... (possibly to take down kindle)

the Plus is a relatively young device. it MUST receive ics.

They said it may get ICS, but being a new device means nothing. For Samsung, 'soon' usually applies only to the next device they want to sell you.

It is in the list of devices, that will get ics

But first....
It could receive ICS but Samsung needs to sell his new ICS TAB 2 devices to the customers who are expecting the new android version anxiously. the strategy works because many people prefer selling their old tablet and buy a new one.

We could just hoping that we WILL receive ICS.. we'll just need to wait n see..

Galaxy S2 phones in Canada began getting ICS starting in May. Given that phone came out about a year or so before the Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus... well, some Galaxy S phones in the US only just got Gingerbread in May.
With that sort of precedent, I fear we might not get ICS until the Google Nexus Tablet 2 with the Tegra 5 chipset is released.

Our tab will get ics, its a known fact. As much as I want the ics upgrade, I am happy they have not released it yet because we would all be *****ing about the peel ap not working with ics and other things that make the gal plus tab better that the the basic tabs that did get the update. Look at the asus transformer ts3, mybrother in law has it and it is a disaster right now.

Maybe JB is released to solve brick bug present in ICS for these devices...
This may answer why ICS hasn't officially been released yet for 3 months in many regions (including mine).

Yeah, I do hope that brick bug gets fixed. Although there was a fix found for that as I remember. It was posted around the forums.

I really hope this will fix the major Bluetooth issue with the ICS version of this tablet!

Then it would cost them a lot of bricked devices due to broken recovery in ics
I hope they are in hurry to fix that in order to reduce the number of RMA requests due to hard brick while resetting to factory default

Since Samsung is already putting out test releases of 4.1 JB for the P3100 (tab 2.7 ) It might not be too long. Yeah , I know, its a different processor.

I hope that too. but I hope for Wi-Fi fix for current official rom first.
Present I use CM10 because I can't connect Wi-Fi in many sites. :crying:
I tried more solution but can't solve this problem

Don't expect to receive the update until next year for P6200 and 6 month (maybe a year?) for P6210.
I'm not happy with Samsung and I'm not alone.
I bought my gtab and a Sony smartphone 6 month ago.
In 6 month the phone receive 5 updates (3 GB and 2 ICS) and in the same time my gtab receive only one update (crappy Honeycomb).
Luckily XDA is here for me and I can flash ICS with Odin (but first attempt trigger the infamous brick bug).
It's a shame to spend for 350 € (I live in Belgium) and see our product forgotted by his constructor.
Long time ago I've a same story with a Toshiba tablet and tell me not to revive this with my new tablet.
I choose to buy Samsung to avoid this but this firm disappointed me.
One thing is certain my next tab won't be a Samsung.!

This is great news, but I hope that they fix the wifi issue. My wife's tablet cannot stay connected to the wifi, and it is like it has become worse the further away she moved from Honeycomb. I also hope that they reinstate App2SD ability and give us the option to add our own apps or shortcuts to the mini apps tray.. I don't care how long it takes to receive an update, just as long as they fix the wifi and app2sd issues.
Hopefully this update will bring more interested developers for our tablets.

Well obviously Samsung is pushing the updates for the gear watch. I just don't see how a 10 inch tablet would be practical for the gear. This 4.3 update came really quick considering 4.3 just came out. Hell the s2 might even get an update as many people have it on prepaid carriers and also a lot probably got the phone free on contract. I doubt kit kat will come as quick to any Sammy devices they will probably have the attitude that be grateful we gave you an update...seriously considering nexus 5/6 for my next phone

Give me a reason that Samsung will release the update for note 10.1 2012 edition.
I guess it will no more update the 4.x ROM on the old note 10.1 to somehow force the people buy the 2014 edition.

Dont forget, some of us are using the phone model N8000 or similar and definitely would like to get Gear working with Note 10.1. It is funny that Samsung makes updates for pocket phones (easy to carry, easy to be taken out) but where is the update for a tablet size phone?? Who needs more Gear: a person having S3 in his front pocket or a person carrying his Note 10.1 in a bag? Also with 10.1 you cannot share your SNote files anymore because phones having 4.3 has newer version of SNote and hence new file extension. You dont see how Gear would be practical a phone sized 10.1? But you think it ispractical for people who are carrying their phones in pockets? If i had a phone in my pocket, I wouldnt even consider to buy Gear (it doesnt offer any practical use for that price).
I think Im going to get Sony Smartwatch 2 for a xmas for myself. I definitely need a smartwatch working with my huge one...

Only one reason? Note 10.1 is incompatible with other Note-serie phones/tablets havng newer SNote app. We arent happy at work. Actually we are quite angry. We cannot share our SNote files anymore between people in a project group. Samsung changed their own application, SNote, to be incompatible with phones not having 4.3. Some of us bought GN3 and made changes to shared SNote files and no one cannot open the file anymore. Is this enough?
Note 10.1 (2012) is barely a year old device, should be a member of Samsung premium line, so called flagships. What premium is owning a phone without support? Remember that Note serie is marketed also for business and schools. They dont chance their devices every 6-12 months. Only premium seems to be the price....

I can see your point, for me though if I am not using my tablet it I turn it off. A phone for my usage serms more practical. When charging or when in pocket I can check email or text.

Maybe next year when android 5 updates come to the galaxy s5 comes out we will see a 4.4 kitkat on our tablet. Priority will always be new phones and tablets. But im pretty sure we will get it some day. Also I think there is a problem with incompatibility from snote from note 3..a lot of complains will happen if the note 10.1 upgrade with it and people cang open files

Which model are you guys talking about?
I have a GN GT-N8013 ( 64G GNote 10.1 original ) and am still waiting for Samsung to come out with 4.3.
Am happy with the basic note but would really love multiple user support.

It's not likely the 8013 will see anything beyond 4.3.

Call it insider knowledge.

Note 2 and SGS3 having similar internals are supposed to get upto Android 4.4 Kitkat..so why not?
But having said that both these phones have only just started getting 4.3 few days back in some regions, so who knows Kit Kat can take couple of years to come to Note N8000, when Google release android 5
Its really a shame on Samsung, they should only release a limited number of devices each year for which they can release timely updates..

As it sits right now, we are 3 OS versions back. We will get an update in the (near?) future. Will we get 4.4? Probably. Will it be before the end of 2014? Right now it seems unlikely.

I'm living in the Netherlands and my Galaxy Note 10.1 N8010 runs on Android 4.1.2. (The latest available version in the Netherlands)
When will the N8010 get android 4.2 or higher.

i wont fall into the same trap again. thats the reason holding me back from buying the note 2014.

Sorry guys if this is going a *little* bit off-topic (I'm going to talk about Android 4.3, rather than 4.4, but hey, still about an update for our awesome yet forgotten 10.1....)
It's a quote from a reply on other thread, by me.
I recently spoke to a Samsung rep (Samsung's website live chat) and with a Samsung rep (in person). Both said:
"it will be updated, at least to Android 4.3, but we cannot tell you when".
So I'm pretty sure we are getting 4.3 at some point. Heck, if the Note 2 and S III got it, it's only reasonable that our Note 10.1 gets it. It was the flagship tablet of its (short) time, such as the Note 2 and S III being flagships/high-end. Everyone's been saying that Samsung won't update it to force us go for the Note 10.1 2014 edition, so why did the Note 2 and Galaxy S III get the update (ok, ok, Galaxy Gear blabla)? Wouldn't they force you to go for a Note 3 and Galaxy S IV? You get my point.
So, be prepared to wait (wait... wait... wai...), and official news about the updates *cough kitkat* are coming.
My guess is: Android 4.3 and no Android 4.4, unfortunately but thankfully.

Any updates on this? I read a rumour about the upcoming KitKat update. Is it true?

Very good news, probably in 2-3 months at most.

Slowly im thinking we won't get any updates any more...Samsung will release another s5 version with 5.0 In 3-4 months there will be 5.3 or something then Samsung will tell we skip 5.0 to 5.3 like with 4.4.3 or now 4.4.4 and all this only to push note 4 and edge but the best part of that is that they will tell in few months that note 3 galaxy s5 got 4.4.4 cause Verizon/sprint and s5 lte a like with s3 actually they updated china/korea s3 to 4.4.4 why they are wasting time to work on region specific firmware and then bulls hit like this to current flagships (note 4 is 2 weeks old and has 4.4.4 ) im owner of tab 3 s3 s4 s5 and n3 I love Samsung but their confusing bulls hit update policy is making me pissed off that company.... I think my next phone will be oneplus one follower....or nexus ...

Bad news for the Note 4 port..

Stop been so negative. This is good news. Means we will get 5.0 even quicker. It's a very good move. Think I'll keep my note 3 now.

Dont write this on public site - Samsung may read that and dont upgrade N3 at all (then you must buy N4) I think its good move - i can wait for new android - my N3 is working fine.
I had n2, now n3 and i will buy n4 when price will a little bit lower.

note 3 will get 5.0 for sure. based on 18 months support. most ppl won't upgrade every year. note 4 is mostly for note 2 users.

2-3 is a bit too optimistic. 6 months is my wild guess. as the spen apps testing.

i think its a good move from Samsung to update the Note3 with Android 5 , this shows that ppl who buy a Samsung device ( flagship ) dont have to worry that their device would be outdated after a year and that it is a good investment.

Maybe they release that before I buy a new phone
Never Samsung again.
Maybe Huewai or Nexus.

Be glad. If we'd gotten 4.4.4,we would not have gotten 5.0.(as we already had one major upgrade, and we only get two in total.)
Oh, and normally I'm not this childish, but right now I just can't help it.
I told you so.
There. That's to everyone who told me I was wrong repeatedly and none too kindly when I said weeks ago that this would be the case.

Good good. The only issue is how long it would take. Interestingly the Tweet says the international versions.

if samsung still follow their normal screw you we lied on update style... we will keep getting push backward until all new device release got a good sale...

I think you're really too optimistic !!! ^^
If it comes, it will be at most by mid 2015 !!!
Don't forget the latest products will get Android 5 first and this won't be before the end of 2014...

There is already a version leaked for the S4 which looks promising:

I keep my estimate - first week of February (or before) for international Note 3, and we'll see at that point who was right

Tablets have completely different update policies, it's like apples and ... canned ham. Not even close.

Here is a new video showing the kind of differences we could expect:

seems google gives alot of help to manufacturers on updating 5.0. LG, and MOTO gets official 5.0 in few weeks. HTC 90day promises. samsung beta build preview, situation is much better than last major update of 4.0

Slowly im thinking we won't get any updates any more...Samsung will release another s5 version with 5.0 In 3-4 months there will be 5.3 or something then Samsung will tell we skip 5.0 to 5.3 like with 4.4.3 or now 4.4.4 and all this only to push note 4 and edge but the best part of that is that they will tell in few months that note 3 galaxy s5 got 4.4.4 cause Verizon/sprint and s5 lte a like with s3 actually they updated china/korea s3 to 4.4.4 why they are wasting time to work on region specific firmware and then bulls hit like this to current flagships (note 4 is 2 weeks old and has 4.4.4 ) im owner of tab 3 s3 s4 s5 and n3 I love Samsung but their confusing bulls hit update policy is making me pissed off that company.... I think my next phone will be oneplus one follower....or nexus ...

Please use grammar, or at least full stops. That was a nightmare to read.

If you give me some of yours Time to sit on PC and check if anything is Ok, sure I will anyway you don't have to read my comment if it is too complicated or you don't understand cause no grammar. [emoji6]

Of course we will get 5.0 lol... the phone is still retailing at ££549.00 here in the UK, I came from LG G3, what does that say. Also, as a sidenote somebody said "they need to sell Note 4's" that has nothing to do with it, Note 4 doesn't launch with Lollipop.
EDIT: also, people please have some consideration for people whose first language is not English. Stop being grammar nazis if you wish to complain about someones grammar, help them with it. Don't be a **** about it.
