I have a Samsung GT-I5500 running Android version 2.2. I have Kies on my pc, can I upgrade to Android version 4 and if I can any help in doing this.

check on the internet if your mobile supports android 4.0 because not all mobile supports it

Hello, samsung does not make a upgrade for your device. However, you can install a custom rom, but cusrom's with android 4 for your device ar still in developing.

I think sami doesnt support anymore us. But u can install stock 4.2.2. Or cyanogenmod...as custom rom

I think that it will be more difficult even to have a fully functional cyanogenmod because of the changes in the surfaceflinger...TI is out of the market so we won't get further official support i guess...See Galaxy nexus also...

Impossible to have an Official 4.4 update, but I don't doubt that we'll have an stable and fully functioning 4.4 via CyanogenMOD.

but our device is fully capable of running 4.4.x .. this is unfair thats y i dont go for any sammy devices

Our device can run PURE 4.4 smoothly, but Samsung adds crap (aka Touchwiz) to Android...
proof? Official 4.2.2 is a HORRIBLE firmware!

Samsung announced that 4.2 would be the Tab 2's last update. At this point, if you want newer OS versions, ROMs are your only choice. 4.3.1 is pretty standard for roms nowadays. PAC-Rom developers said that they are already working on a 4.4 build for the tab 2, but it will be a while before it's out.

Note 10.1 GT-8013 (2013) - latest Android?

Hi,

You can get the latest software through your system's settings. If you can't get it there, you can get it through Samsung Kies on your computer. If all fails, you can try to get the latest android through here: http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/

Did it come stock with 4.2.1? We only have up to 4.1.2 on the 2012 and although you may have bought yours in 2013, if its an 8013, its still considered a 2012. If its truly 4.2.1, maybe we can get a developer to help get a system dump.

It's actually 4.1.2.
My typo.

YES you can download the Official samsung firmware from sammobile Just type in the model for your tab (e.g P6200 or P6210 * edit) then just pick a country the latest release is P6210UBMH1 android 4.1.2
If you want custom roms stock based or not there is a fine selection in the developers section for our tab

[Note 3| N9005] Does downgrading the Android version downgrade the Modem as well?

I bought a used Samsung Galaxy Note 3 (N9005) recently, and it was updated to Lollipop 5.0. And after few days I found out that the Phone Radio/Modem was not functioning well (I almost had full 4G coverage when I was using my J7 with the same SIM card, and now it's EDGE. What the ....! ).
I'm not an Android or any type of Mobile expert (not a good English speaker at least ). So as their were rumors saying that the Lollipop update for N9005 had many issues, I removed that and installed the CM13 ROM just to find that it was not the solution for my problem. So I searched the web for almost a day and now I think that the problem is with the Modem and CM13 didn't change it.
My current Baseband version: N9005XXUGBPB1
I was going to downgrade my phone to Android Kitkat 4.4.2, hoping that would downgrade the Radio/Modem as well and fix the problem. But then I got this wise idea to ask some wise guys in this forum if this is gonna work or not?
