According to an older leak Samsung planned to update the Mega to 4.4. You can find it somewhere around.
Yeah was suppose it happen in October ... Lol .....it will come eventually
2SHAYNEZ
there is a update comming to 4.4 somewhere in december check here Click
Unfortunately, the list does not reveal anything about the possible release date of Android 4.4 KitKat for these smartphones. Earlier it was reported that the Samsung Galaxy S III, Galaxy S4 and Galaxy Note II would be upgraded to Android 4.3 Jelly Bean by year-end. The company was said to be planning an Android 4.3 update for its top of the line smartphones soon
Lol no date man ....I'll believe it when I see it
4.3 will come to the mega we just have to wait see here

They won't do a full version update 1 business quarter after a previous one. They'll release patches but that's about it. If we were getting 4.4 we'd get it with the next version update, whatever that will be.

Sorry to introduce facts on ya; development cycles between Google, Samsung, and the carrier are longer than 3 months. Not to mention implementation, support training, and roll-out efforts.
I'm not saying it'll never come out, but I'd be honestly surprised if the Mega gets both Android 4.3 and 4.4. I'd love it if Sprint delayed a bit and got 4.4 on the Mega, but the 4.3 roll-out has been planned for some time with the carriers who are releasing it and the effort is duplicative for a 4.4 roll-out.
Bump!
Any ETAs for 4.3? And are we even in line to get 4.4?

Hey all,
I didn't think that Samsung was planning to upgrade the original Note but just read an article on Slashgear saying that there is one on the way.
Is an official JB ROM on its way?

Uhm...
That's the international version, not our version.

I hope I'm wrong ....
But in the context of that article ...the author could just as well have meant upgrade to JB in the form of a new device, not just software.
And yes .that is the international version they are referencing ....g
Got and E-Mail from SamMobile today:
Samsung to start with Jelly Bean (Android 4.1) updates for the next devices:
Galaxy S III
Galaxy S II
Note
Note 10.1
Galaxy Tab 2 10.1
Galaxy Tab 2 8.9
The updates are planned for Q4.
There are rumours about Ace 2 and Advance Jelly Bean updates. We cannot confirm this at the moment.
I'm not sure if it's of any consolation, just my contribution.
Might only be for the International version. Crossing fingers for the i717.

Let's hope that this apply to our version of our Notes and not the international. We're still waiting for the XXLRQ update even though we can use some of its features already via apk extraction.

I would think we'd be seeing some JB leaks. But considering that it takes Samsung a while to update the international note (which is higher on their priority scale then at&t or tmo note), and the fact that article said nothing about AT&T, I would guess this update is for the GT-N7000 only.
If there is an AT&T note update, it'll probably be a few months after that.
Just from what I've seen with other samsung international vs. carrier specific phones.
We didn't see gb leaks for the at&T note before the official update rom came out.
Don't see why it wouldn't come out or that at&T isn't a priority... I am sure they sold with enough not to want piss off first note owners and screw up 3rd generation note sales.
My opinion of course.

I swear, when ICS was officially released from AT&T, I was so happy. I backed up my latest ICS developer ROM, think it was h0tw1r3's, then went and installed the official ICS. I ran that crap for one day. Immediately restored my phone back to a developer ROM. So much bloated crap on there and seemed so slow.
I really don't think I am ever installing back an official release, BUT I do miss S-Memo, and yes I know about other apps similar, but the new features coming on the Note2 with S-Memo, idk... Looks very tempting.
People, the Att Note also is Note. Samsung said 'Note' and that incluses all versions of Note. So just wait. It will come.

+1. If you're an old school AT&T and Samsung owner, you know AT&T is slow to update. Took almost 8 months for me to get official GB on my Captivate from the time they announced it. Not even mentioning the wait for Eclair to Froyo They have gotten better though. We'll get it.

I was reading something that in february we will get the 4.2 version.
I'm sure since the Note 2 shipped with JB and the GS3(even US variants) got updated I'm sure we'll see an update to 4.2 eventually. I wouldn't say anytime soon though because they just released the update to JB for the GS3 not too long ago. I know on my AT&T GS3 I have a fully functioning build of 4.2.1 with everything working for the most part, just not all the features of AOKP are integrated. Task650 in the AT&T and Samsung Galaxy S series is an amazing developer and I've been running his version of AOKP on my GS2 i777 and GS3-i747 since I've had the phone. Even though AOKP is offically supported for the AT&T gs3 by bajja or whatever his name is(sorry I know you deserve more respect than whatever his name is but I don't have time to look it up lol...so I appologize) Tasks build is the most popular and even includes some extras like the LG Optimus G lockscreen which is awesome. I wish he would build of a version of AOKP for the AT&T Gnote 2 lol.

It is still too soon to discuss about that
But rumours say 4.2 will be available in Q3 next year...
I believe that we will get an official update to 4.2
But this could also be our last official update.......

Awhile after Samsung molests the source with touchwiz stuff. As should be expected.
2 weeks after July 4th...next year
About a week after Google released 4.3 we got CyanogenMod 10.2 (which is 4.3) for the s4 (thanks to our developers).
That was almost as fast as the nexus devices getting the update.
However, CyanogenMod does not have all the Samsung touchwiz features.

No, and the TW 4.3 versions will come some time after the international S4 is upgraded.
JB4.3, estimate 4-6 months from now. What we should really be asking is KLP 5.0 in 4-6 months instead. I have no expectation that Verizon or Samsung will update the GS4 beyond 5.0, and we will be lucky to get 5.0 at all.

I think only a handful of non-Nexus devices have received more than one generation update. Thunderbolt went from froyo to ics. I think the Bionic went from gb to jb. Any others that got more than one generation update?
Sent from my SCH-I545 using xda premium
The update from 4.2.2 JB to 4.3 JB is so minor that either Samsung will skip it entirely and go to KLP 5.0 or we will see both upgrades. I know I took and take a very negative view of Verizon when it comes to updates and other related issues, but we should not dismiss all hope.

Samsung is skipping 4.2 for note2 and s3 so I think they will update everything to 4.3... after note3 comes out ofc

Maybe his assumption is not totally pointless considering that current 4.3.1 are all aops (?), hence do not include TW which I assume will add additional memory load?!

Tw is a launcher, that's not the problem.
The only problem is marketing. Samsung want to promote newly cutting edge devices, and counting on the ignorance of 90% of its users, they try to invite a maximum of people to buy a new device to have new features, which are for a good part of them only software evolutions.
So after a 'security delay' to sell for example 40 million s4 plus the recent note 3 they eventually consider the older users..
With all their IT engineers they could have brought us 4.2 in a couple a weeks and same for 4.3.
Programmed obsolescence.

Why would you post this here. Why would you make a whole new thread.
Why would you assume that the lettering system to designate test builds that is based on Date would be the same for final versions across devices.

If you flashed the leaked NABD, and if an official build comes that is different from that which you are on, then you'll have to wait for the tar package to be posted.
In a word, you'll be able to upgrade but will have to wait. You may have some hurdles to cross, and perhaps some mods to put back, but the singular differentiator will be time.
Freeza would not have posted a leak and leave folks with no way to get the latest. It's the very reason you have NABD in the first place. To have the latest.
As to why this device is not the first to get the official build, one may rightly speculate that it's a more challenging task. More complex device = protracted release date. You'll be fine.
Perhaps cold comfort, but it's all I have to offer.
I hope this helps.

The official 4.4.2 release for the sprint variant Galaxy S4 is NAE. And according to the rdf from sprint, they are testing a build labeled NAC for the Note3. So the official release could be anything.
