Just read that key lime pie update will come with the release of the note 3 with a bunch of new Samsung apps like their version of the photosphere. I'm already on paranoidandroid but I can't wait for this...

You realize Verizon determines when it officially rolls out to our devices, right? It's going to be a while until we get it. The international Note 2 will most likely get it right away though.

Which means custom Roms will be out with it. Might try the international base when that happens

I still think the wait will be shorter for the note 3 than for a KLP update.
See you guys in that forum :beer:
Jelly Bean (4.2.2)
In theory, we should be getting Jelly Bean (4.2.2) along with most of the S4 apps shortly as well (provided VZW doesn't screw us over...like always).
Then again, I'm waiting for the some final GPS patches to be merged into CM10.1, then I'll probably be running that full time.

When Samsung says "looking at May-June for 4.2.2 Galaxy Note 2/S3 updates", that means' International. Then, Verizon has to take that update, drop it's pants and pop a squat on it, smear it all over the place, hold on to it for a few more months to let it really ferment and get nasty, then they'll post some kind of update changelog wherein Verizon is God himself and is sending us a gift from heaven that they concocted.
Samsung must sit there and shake their head every time Verizon updates one of their phones months after they did.

Phone looks awesome but it wont drop until november. And its probably a vzw exclusive for the time being. They didnt comment much on carriers at the release.

This. And as far as trying to build out the brand, it was a poor move to put this into the hands of Verizon the same day the Razr was announced. It sucks because of the fact that data is moving into the cloud, access $80 per 5 piece. I'll never go back to Verizon and the MoPho is a device I can stick with for awhile because the communications and GPS functioning on the device is great.

I love everything about the Galaxy Nexus and am really tempted to upgrade. But two things threw me off:
- exclusive to Verizon. What the heck. What happened to the promise to be open and not stick to one carrier? That was just last year when they released the Nexus S!
- Likely to be CDMA only. As a student from Hong Kong that goes back every half year, I need my GSM connectivity on my Photon.
Now that Google bought Motorola, I have high hopes that they will bring ICS to Photon.

the international version is gsm and carrier unlocked, just the same as the previous nexus. if you are on tmo or att that version will work fine
verizon exclusive is only until sprint gets lte set up. sprint just bought a CRAPLOAD of iphones and is subsidzing them at a horrible cost to themselves. once they have the capital and lte networks up i expect to see a sprint version
*cries* Yeah and I wish they hadn't done so now they are so cash strapped it'll be a while before we see improvements around here? :/

I was asking everyone for their opinions just to get some idea of what I should do...I would wait for sprint to get the device because I used to work for Verizon and they are full of **** over there but I am not sure about the devices as a whole...things have been moving really slow over here and I give much thanks and props to the guys that have been developing over here but I am used to flashing at will without all of the problems with 4g wifi etc...I get bored easily so I am already looking for my next device but when I can flash at will it keeps my current device fresh and new for me and I don't get bored with it as fast....if I can get ICS in the next couple of Weeks thru a leak our something I will be good until upgrade time I guess
Motorola is probably working on it but a release of ics won't be until march April maybe.. It won't come overnight but in time...

Though ICS is looking dam good on Galaxy Nexus keep in mind that Samsung is not good with updates.So,if there is any bug in initial release only God can help you.
For example Samsung Infuse released with froyo and Samsung almost forgot about this phone.

Yes from q2, which means starting in q2. So international will get in first in q2, and the carriers will get it a few months later likely.

Even though at&t is "promoting" the Note, you think they are going to roll out ICS quickly? It might cause harm to their "flagship" icrap.
I went into an at&t store on release day of the note to get a case for my international note & I about fell over dead when I saw a poster on the wall with the note. Something besides crapple.
Probably gonna get this Ics in Canada early

I think most of this hype is actually directed at the International version. Samsung even mentions the Note's "powerful 1.4ghz processor" in the newest Angry Birds PR. That sounds to me like the Exynos phones will get ICS first (GII and I Note) and then if we're lucky the Snapdragon models (SR and I717)
And that still doesn't count the carrier development time. I keep my original estimate of ICS on the AT&T I717 at October 1st and the Canadian versions in late summer.
Call me cynical but....
Of course the dev roms will flow alot sooner.

ICS was postponed on the international version because the current ICS leaks suck and Samsung probably doesn't want to release another half assed software update. I would be very surprised if AT&T sees this in Q2

I got my note off eBay last month. I use straight talk and had to update with kies. No ota was available for me. Update to ICS went fine but I was my data didn't hallways work even with recommended ucle2 radio. So I tried a couple cm and cm10 based ROMs and data has been fine. I don't know why I had problems on stock but am glad is now working correctly.... plus it was a good excuse to play with the phone
Yup in the same boat, my baby mama did the same thing. I cant tell much of a difference between hox screen and note (a side from the obvious size lol) htc has been a big let down for 2012. Lets hope 2013 is better because HTC does imo make the best phones in terms of build quality not that it matters I am with my gs3 for another 18 months lol

I was strolling around the other note 2 forums for different carriers and noticed all of the other us carriers have the 4.1.2 update. But we don't? I know how Verizon is but this is a joke. I mean, it might be a small update and I don't mind but it really is outrageous that Verizon can be lazy to catch up on software updates.
If anything, I might just root.
Any thoughts on this guys? Or if there is an expected release for 4.1.2. Thanks!
Big Red doesn't hurry on updates then people will be less likely to buy new phones. Verizon doesn't like the N2 anyway, because it competes with their DNA.

Seems to make sense. DNA is nowhere near a threat to the note 2 so you do have a point. I may consider rooting over the next weekend when Im off work. I'll probably have to plan out what I'll do after root though.

Hogwash. It is a different price range and market. There is no substantiating evidence supporting that whatsoever. It brings them contracts, they don't care what device it is.
I read that Verizon will be the only carrier not to sell the Nexus 5. Reasoning? Likely it is highly integrated with Google apps such as the forbidden Wallet. Google plans to end fragmentation with this backward compatible version but we all know how Verizon likes to be in complete control. Chances the Note II will see this carrier upgrade, slim to none?
Verizon likes to have full control over the devices which Google doesn't want in its Nexus program. Verizon also doesn't see the potential (Profit) in the Nexus which may not be too far off as it is mainly just us Android addicts that go crazy over it, most mainstream consumers are looking at the G2, Moto X, HTC One, and GS4 (All of which Verizon has on their network).
As for when we will get the update really relies on Samsung and if they want to make it available for the Note 2. The 4.3 update was in the air for a while and being that the GS5 will be announced early next year we may never see 4.4 officially. If we do we may be in luck for once as Verizon and Samsung seemed to have synced up nicely with the 4.3 release and Verizon is actually one of the first carriers to push it out to their Galaxy devices (Note 2, GS3, GS4) but who knows.
I think the low memory requirements for Android and 4.4 were more for porting it to new devices such as watches and to support current low end models, not getting older forgotten about devices finally upgraded.

Samsung is slow? Are you insane? It's the carrier that is slow. Check your facts pal. Samsung usually gives at least a couple major updates but they are severely limited by Verizon. Especially when we are such an open phone. They take more time to fix the bootloader being unlocked as instructed by Verizon. Samsung is a fantastic company. The fact that the s3 is getting 4.3 is a good indicator of how the note 2 will be treated a little later down the line.

It still take Samsung months to release an update on the international versions. They are only semi quick on the very latest phones. There's no reason a billion dollar company should take that long when a group of developers from this site can port asop Roms by themselves in a matter of hours, albeit with some bugs but these people do this for fun and are way more efficient.
