Probably not. Samsung doesn't release two updates for non-flagship devices. The best example is the original GALAXY Grand. It only got one 4.1.2 to 4.2.2 update. Nothing else. Same thing for the GALAXY Star. But, we will get custom ROMs, hopefully.

Latest android version (from Samsung) for your phone is 4.2.2.
But you can search for a custom rom.

Hi I noticed the N7100 note 2 ports of 4.4.2 Kitkat are getting more stable but do any of you remember why the i9300 couldn't get updated, Samsung said driver issues. But yet we can now run 4.4.2 touchwiz on i9300 with no issues. So my question is why can't the i9300 get updated officially?
Because its old phone which had a lot of updates. From 4.0.4 to 4.3
Can you imagine how much money cost update? And update do not earn any money.
Hi all,
I'm thinking of upgrading my Note 3 to Dr Ketan's Lollipop ROM. I'm currently on his custom Kitkat ROM K14 with no problems.
Just wondering if anyone is using Lollipop on their phones yet and if there are any problems with the Gear S?
Thanks,
Rich

Dont do it yet, been there and done that on the T-Mobile Note 3 and ended up rolling back to 4.4.2 . There seems to be some issue with Gear Manager. Its a pain to get it installed, and if you manage that then it doesnt want to connect to the watch. Its a little early for lollipop on the note 3. I believe the only original samsung rom is for the 9005 note which wont work on LTE models.
My S5 has recently upgraded to Lollipop and there are no problems with my Gear S. After the upgrade, I'm able to compose mails with the email app, finally. Before the upgrade to 5.0, only reply was possible.
S5 + Lollipop
I have installed the original Lollipop on my S5 ( downloaded from sammobile ).
My Gear S works 100%

I see some information on many 4rum like androidPIT,... They said that our S3 I9300 can be update to android Lollipop official from samsung. So, I have som question about this!
1. True?
2. When our S3 i9300 will be update to 5.0?
3. How to port android 5.0 officical from s5 or s4 to our s3?
Thank you

We need to wait for the Note 2 Official Update to lollipop , because Note2 and S3 I9300 have the same chipset . When Note 2 Will get 5.0 Lollipop then we will get PORTED ROM with S5/S6 Apps.
1. you posted a question in the development thread..please post questions in QnA thread :good:
2. no dice, BUT, if official sammy lollipop drops for the Note2, then you can safely assume ports will be done :good:
asdas
Expect note 2 official lollipop. If we come s6 application ports
Plus when note 2 lollipop drops along with its kernel sources our AOSP roms will also get much consistent .!!
So don't expect and to be honest I don't want samsung to give 5.0 because it will be heavily bloated and slow... its better to stick to AOSPs like ARCHI DROID which is so much better than the standard cyanogen mod , and the one that @JustArchi will release this time will be based on 5.1 and will have much deeper optimizations than any other rom.. So that in everyway Is a better choice ..
Samsung is one of the major OEMs which led to android fragmentation , so don't expect them to give a 2012 phone android 5.0 even though it can handle it pretty good but then again its touchwiz , which ruins everything .
That depend's on the user preferinces . I hate AOSP , i want a samsung phone not a htc !
Samsung didn't release the official update yet, and that means I have to wait for life to get the update.
In addition, the update will not change much.
I wanted to install the Galaxy S6 Lollipop ROM on my E7, but then I realized it's not a good idea.
Thanks.
