I see a theme here says Android 4.4 has been released, currently only a small number of the phone will likely install Android 4.4 system, I just bought the THL W8S phone, it is Android 4.2, although it can not upgrade to Android 4.4, I think it should be able to upgrade to Android 4.3, You tried to put his mobile phone to upgrade to the Android 4.3? Is there any way? Can any one know how to get that? Please guide me, thank you

4.4 isn't out.. yet.
It's a chinese dual chip phone, isn't it? It'll be hard to find decent developers to get their hands on it.
I don't think it's just a matter of "BLAM! ANDROID 4.3 INSTALLED!". There are drivers, frameworks and stuff, things that'll surely be hard to find. Maybe if you look into a chinese xda-developers like forum?

I have Spice MI 280 with 2.3.4 pre-installed.
I want to update my device to a higher version, maybe 2.3.7 which will be compatible for my device.
Please help! I am new to all this and bought a cheap phone only to learn these things. Besides, its my first Android phone and one month old. I have rooted it.
Please help me update it to a version that will be stable for my device.
650 mHz processor
150 mb RAM
sorry, i think, there is no update for your phone.

Hey Ironic138! I know there aint any official update from the manufacturer.
I was wondering if there is any way to update my OS to the Google Android ver 2.3.x
Not for any specific manufacturer. Just the one that Google provides as Spice didn't launch any updates for ANY of its device...
Thanks!
Sorry, but i dont get the point. Do you mean a custom rom?
Exactly! That's the term!

I know there is no official update but i still want to update the phone.Any chance?
Why do you need the update? Whats wrong with 2.3.4?
I think, you have to talk to the user rjunraj, he is also searching for a way to update his phone!
CynogenMod?

In few forums I saw that CynogenMOD works for most devices but then how do I know it will work for me? Whether it will be stable or not.
I know these must be Noob questions for the pro so guys please save the harsh comments. I am looking fwd to learn how on this "now-feeling-crap" phone
First of all you need the CWM Recovery. Look at this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=26406717
Thats all what i can do for you!
Well your phone can defienetly not get ICS, and I don't think there is any differense between 2.3.X versions, the only thing would be if you could find a good CyanogenMod 7 custom ROM.
Thats the point, the phone has less ram and the CPU is not fast enough for ICS.
I don't really the problem with 2.3.4?!

I have ordered the UMI Cross / C1 from iShoppstore and am expecting delivery just after Christmas. I am aware the problems people have had with the Chinese smartphones regarding the Wifi and GPS connectivity but I believe for the most part these are fixable so it is with interest that I await to see what problems I will have with mine. I did see some newspaper article that UMI were going to start selling their smartphones in the UK.... http://www.belfasttelegraph.co.uk/business/news/umi-smartphones-to-launch-in-the-uk-29610580.html Not sure if this article is to be taken seriously though.
It would be nice to get the KitKat upgrade for this model though I doubt this will happen any time soon. I am very curious if you have resolved the issues you had with the Cross. Can you let me know how its going for you and what problems you've had as I'm sure my phone will be the same.
I know the transition from Android 4.1 to 4.2 included some key features but from 4.2 to 4.3 I could do without. I don't know much about the difference between 4.3 and 4.4 though. I guess I'm more worried about how the phone works when I get it.
Cheers
yes please direct me umi cross sp tools and latest stock rom (mine is 20131128-145411).
how to backup/restore rom with sp tools?
gps (slow even cannot lock) and compass (erratic) issues.
anyone with english manual?
Has anyone tried installing stock Android (Lollipop) on the Hudl 2?
It comes with Android 4.4.2 and it's doubtful that I'll get an OTA update. Stock Android would also be a good way to get rid of the embedded bloatware.

I would also be very interested in getting this :good:
How can we get a stock Android lollipop for it? I want it as well. Because if it's not possible I will return it and ask for a full refund.

Good luck returning it. Unless it is proven faulty, they won't want to know.
With regards to an update, who knows. You cannot, at present, root a hudl2 if you received an ota update.
Tesco have this tablet buttoned down. We all know that root permission gives an android device the opportunity to stretch it's legs. Tesco won't even release any signature code to enable stuff like custom recovery. Pure, stock Android, still requires much information to even begin cooking it. Until sources are released nothing can happen at present. Also bear in mind, this is a UK device and is therefore restricted in the amount of devs willing to support a 'minority' tablet. I'd love to root my hudl2 but the update got me! Every other android device I have is rooted and run custom ROMs. I've even made a couple of ROMs and until we get the source code / access to the locked down boot / access to the signature keys, we are stumped.
Ok I am not sure how to ask this question so I will explain exactly what I want to do and why I'd like to do it if possible. I have an iReadyGo Much G2 android phone and it is running Android 4.2 but I really want an Android Wear watch which requires 4.3. I don't expect this phone to receive an update anytime soon so I want to know if it would be possible to develop a ROM to bring this phone up to speed and put Android 4.3 on it.

Yes. You can upgrade your android version by flashing custom rom if available for your device.
