Samsung Galaxy S4 (GT-I9500) is getting the Lollipop update in Russia,
What’s that you say? Another device getting the Lollipop update? That’s right, yet another Samsung smartphone, the Galaxy S4 LTE-A (GT-I9506), is being updated to the latest version of Android as we write this, a week after the standard Galaxy S4 received the update. What’s notable about the Lollipop update for this device is the fact that it is already available in three different regions (Slovakia, Czech Republic, and Germany), though maybe that’s not so impressive considering the Galaxy S4 LTE-A was never that widely available in the first place.
The update has a common build number for all three countries (I9506XXUDOA6), and is based on Android 5.0.1 like the Lollipop update that has rolled out for other Samsung devices. You can upgrade your Galaxy S4 LTE-A using Kies right now, or wait for the OTA notification to show up. Advanced users can also download the firmware for their respective region from our firmware section and upgrade manually.
You can also keep track of where the Lollipop update has been released for the Galaxy S4 LTE-A through the tracker embedded below, and also check out Android 5.0 in action on the Galaxy S4 in our exclusive hands-on video.

Samsung rolls out Android 4.1.2 Jelly Bean update for the Galaxy S II GT-I9100
Samsung has just started to push Android 4.1.2 Jelly Bean update to the International Samsung Galaxy S II GT-I9100. The Galaxy S II is the best-selling Android device of 2011 and has a very large user base that’s why Samsung keeps on updating this device with all the new Android versions as they want to provide the Galaxy S II users with their best support experience.
You might not be able to update your device to Android 4.1.2 Jelly Bean right away as the update is rolling out in phases. So, it might not yet be available for your country or network provider (If Your device is Carrier branded) but don’t worry the update will arrive soon.
In the history of software updates, the new Jelly Bean update by Samsung to the Galaxy S II is by far the most major update given to a smartphone yet. As we all know Samsung’s ICS update didn’t had any UI changes and had exactly the same UI which was in its Gingerbread but this is not the case with Samsung’s Android 4.1.2 Jelly Bean update. The new jelly bean update breathes a new life into the Galaxy S II, Samsung has completely ditched the old UI and has given the new Nature UX Interface, which is the same as the one being used in the Galaxy S III Mini and the Galaxy S III, in its latest Jelly Bean update.
Some of the Enhancements in the new Jelly Bean Update:
- Buttery Smooth Performance & Great Stability (Thanks to Project Butter)
- Full User Interface Revamp (Same UI as of the Galaxy S III and Galaxy Note II)
- TouchWiz Nature UX
- Samsung’s S Cloud services
- Improved Camera features
- New Lockscreen With Many Customization Options
- New Features like Direct Call, Smart Stay and Pop-up Play
- New Widgets (From Galaxy S III)
- 2 Home screen modes
- New Notification bar With More Notification Toggles
- Google Now

Well I think 4.1.2 is not the 'in' thing anymore. We have ROMs on 4.2 already.

Jelly Bean OS
Powered by Android™ 4.1 (Jelly Bean), the latest version of the world’s most popular smartphone operating system. Jelly Bean has fast, fluid and smooth graphics along with a new Google Search™ experience featuring Google Now™, which brings you just the right information, before you even ask.
Fun fact:
The Galaxy S4 is the only phone on which the Google (Play) Edition is actually on and older version of android (5.0) than the stock (touchwiz) version (5.0.1).
The only exception is where carriers have chosen not to update their respective S4 models; i.e. T-Mobile US.
Kudos to Samsung for being the only android manufacturer to accomplish this feat!
:laugh::laugh:
Every other Google play edition device is 5.1

Samsung has released Android 5.1.1 Lollipop update with version G360VVRU3BOH3 for the Galaxy Core Prime (SM-G360V) on Verizon’s network in the US.
News Source
Android 5.1.1 for Galaxy Core Prime also brings the much awaited fix for the Stagefright security vulnerability that was recently discovered in Android, it will certainly be a welcome addition for people who already own the device.
Samsung released kernel sources for the Exynos-powered Galaxy S7 edge nearly 10 months ago, but with the recent Nougat update rollout for the Galaxy S7 and S7 edge, the demand for Nougat mandates a new kernel release for the new operating system update. The same Exynos-powered Galaxy S7 edge, bearing model number SM-G935F, now has new firmware containing Google’s new update with Samsung’s own tweaks included.
As always, these new kernel source releases are designed to help developers take advantage of the new software additions and allow them to create ROMs that the more tech-hungry among us can download onto their handsets. If you want to take advantage of these new kernel sources, feel free to download them through the Open Source Release Center (OSRC) by hitting up the link below.

Hello
I have the Samsung galaxy tab 8.9 sch-739 this is the china model and I don't think it was sold anywhere else in the world because I didn't find any mention of this model in xda. this tablet is as good as dead because Samsung didn't update it to android ice cream sandwich. the last available update for this model is android 3.2.
I've tried to revive it by flashing multiples gt-pt7300 custom ROMs such as cm 11 and asop nougat " same tablet but from different region". these ROMs worked perfectly for the china model except for the sound. I can't for the life of me understand why the sound didn't work. I've looked everywhere from xda to Chinese forums and did a ton of research but to no avail.
it would be such a waste to let this tablet die off especially since there's a decent chance that this sound problem can be fixed if someone knowledgeable enough looks into it
This tablet was released 22 March, 2011, according to Samsung its Android is upgradable to Android 4: You use Kies 2.6 to do so.

Are you sure it's the this specific model " sch-739" ? cause I'm pretty sure it never got the android 4 update. other galaxy tab 8.9 tabs on the hand did get that update
I'm not sure.
My recommendation: Post Samsung your issue.
