I hope so also beacuse the difference between android 4.1.2 and 4.2 are not so huge so I think (and I hope) that the Nexus S can receive it (of course this version of Android will be the last for the NS)

Try this - an awesome experience :
1) get an aosp ROM (I'm running Halogen Mod)
Go to Phandroid.com
2) install the 4.4 launcher, Google search and play services 4.0
3) get the new keyboard (much better than aosp keyboard)
4) get the new hangouts app
5) install deskclock
Profit

Rumours suggest S5 will probably be launched by then. I have a feeling 4.4 will be introduced by Samsung only with S5. Anyway the usual launch happens in April/May.

They wont leave s4 with just 4.3
That would be horribly stupid.
Even s3 had been launched with 4.0.4
But then ended up getting 4.1.1 then 4.1.2 and a leaked version of 4.2.2

i expect someone to mess around with AOSP and cook up a rom by tonight.. like the old days before GPE.. I'm surprise someone ain't do it with the SDK yet

Yes. It may be. But surety says Yes in Jan/Feb.

With no further ado, here is when Android 4.4 is coming to various devices:
HTC
HTC One (including carrier models) – Within 90 days
HTC One Google Play Edition – Within 15 days
Motorola (no timeframes yet)
DROID Ultra
DROID Maxx
DROID Mini
Moto X
Nexus Devices
Nexus 4 – “Coming weeks”
Nexus 7 – “Coming weeks”
Nexus 10 – “Coming weeks”
Samsung
Galaxy S4 Google Play Edition – “Coming weeks”

I've heard S4 GPe is based on Touchwiz. I wonder if their sources would be helpful in CM development?

If I recall, the Google Play edition S4 is virtually identical hardware to the S4 i9505 international isn't it? (?)
Could this mean a ported ROM for the non play edition ... well fairly quickly?
I'd miss several Samsung features :/

Hmmmm... nope GPe based on AOSP

knowing Samsung, there's just no way the non-GE S4 will receive kit kat before the S5 releases

It needs to be released on your phone if you want to update it or you need to flash a 4.4 custom rom.

Wait till anybody port kitkat rom for ur device.Or ur brand must leave it.
There are only two ways...

Note: Google removed Tablet mode from KitKat, so it is not available if you're running Android 4.4.x.

If I recall correctly, that's now part of the boot screen because Google requires it in order for the device to be licensed for Google Play. That's what I heard.

hi
We r getting lollipop soon.... and powered by android in boot is pretty cool atleast for me no harm at all.

samsung has did a geat jobs! kudos for samsung

I hope this does happen soon, running lollipop on my Nexus 7 and HTC One M8 makes my Samsung Tab feel old

As long as rovo89, the Developer for the Xposed Framework for Android devices that run Dalvik..
Althought there is some development for Android Run Time, but its FAR from coming to fruitation and may not be ported and Not released at all.. After all the Developer is entitled to his own life, his own job and to spend time with his family rather to cut them all off just to get Xposed to work with Lollipop. ART makes it extremely hard to start all over from scratch.. As long as there is no Xposed Framework for Lolipop, I am QUITE happy with my Carbon Rom 4.4.4 on my Nexus, and extremely happy with the Touch Wiz Rom for my Galaxy tab.. It has so many features that I use so much.. Unless rovo89 releases Xposed... Android 4.4 is where I planing on Staying..
Besides I'm not a big fan of the complete redo of Android.. But if Xposed were around we could tweak it to where and what we want it to do.. There is no reason to upgrade if your a Power User..
There has been a lot of Chatter on Github, Xposed is a VERY popular mod and for those developers who know 10x more than I can contribute.. If we got together and helped this guy... We could give back to all those times we took.. Infact I will be making a Donation soon
Check out the Chatter on Github!
