Hello everyone , im just curious to know , did Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge will get an official update of Android N? Means that not from Custom ROM because im using Stock non rooted rom since my volume up button stuck and i cant get into recovery / download mode because of that. Any news / rumours about Android N for S6 edge ?
Thanks !
It has been confirmed to get the update. I do not kniw where the source I got this was. It was a couple months ago. I believe SamMobile but I may be wrong there. When it does come out, it will not be at the same time as the nexus devices. Nexus devices don't have the official port yet. They will soon. This phone will get it sometime in the coming months.

Yep it will be sure
Most samsung phones will get 3 updates. 2 updates since 5.0.1. 7.0 should be the last.

I want to buy Galaxy S3 in a local store.
I can ask whatever ROM I want (they will install it for me).
Before I'm buying it, I need to verify one thing which is important to me.
I understand that if I have an original Samsung ROM then I can get an operating system update by the internet only - when it being released.
My question is, when Samsung will release the Android 4.2.x version for the S3 could I get it on my device by the internet?
Maybe I would have to install the official Samsung ROM for 4.1.x and only then get the update?
Thank you for your help.
Either u get ota update.
Or u use kies.
Or odin easiest method.

>> That will void Samsung warranty unless it official and not rooted .

>>> YES as and when the update is released for the firmware you have .
My question is, when Samsung will release the Android 4.2.x version for the S3

There are a few things that you need to know about Samsung updates:
1) Yes, Samsung will give you updates. You can update via the official Samsung KIES software, OTA (over-the-air), or through an unofficial ODIN software.
2) Samsung will never give you the latest updates as soon as they arrive. You will have to wait up to six months for an Android update.
3) Samsung will discontinue updates for phones that were released around 1.5 years before the new update is released. For example, if you buy the Galaxy S2, you will most probably not get the new Key Lime Pie (which will be released later this year). Similarly, for the Galaxy S3, you might not get the Android update scheduled for a 2014 release. You will get these updates if you buy a Nexus 4, on the other hand, or if you choose to install a custom ROM such as Cyanogenmod.
Hi guys i guess most of you have seen android l, but i had a question that will s2 gt-i9100 get android l rom? I know that s2 wont get an official release as they stopped it at 4.1.2 but will we get android l rom by cyanogenmod because galaxy s2 already got 4.4.4 roms

It will come in some shape, but it may not be a perfect experience, as most devs rightfuly gave up on S2 due to all the crap (not) coming from Samsun.

I dont think devs completely gave up on s2 because since s2 stopped at 4.1.2 devs got it all the way up to 4.4.4 with cyanogenmod based roms and they seem to work flawlessly. Some of the kitkat roms for s2 are official by cyanogenmod
I just cant wait for the android l to release, i did some research and they say that it might arrive from 23rd september - 23rd december but when 4.4.4 was released s2 got the rom in 3-4 days i just love those animations on android l

Dude,i think you are wrong!
yes it's ture S2 it's kind of old. BUT! if you just give S2 Developing Thread a visit you will see that it has many Custom roms and lot's of good Dev's are still working on it!
Samsung Galaxy SII still have more Custom Roms and Mods than Some New Smart phones.
All the main devs are gone. Once there will be bigger change in lets acceleration handling in new Android release, S2 will be done. Once S3 will be done with updates, there won't be any way for S2 to be mended by hacking stuff from other similar devices. I've happily sold my old S2 for the same price I've paid for the phone to my operator throughout the years and got Xperia Z2. S2 was great, but it was Samsung and that made it die prematurely. Never ever Samsung.
Guys i downgraded from 5.0 to 4.4.4 by flashing Stock rom with the help of odin
Now how do i root ? please help me as soon as possible ..
device - samsung note 3 verizon sm-n900v 32gb
There is no root for 4.4.4 and you can not flash a lower OS.
You are stuck with stock only.

Sorry but just like the thousands of us you are stuck without root. 4.4.4 is the lowest you can go back to so you can only do 4.4.4 or 5.0. There is a rumor that someone may have found an exploit and make it available later in January or in February, but it is only rumor and no one has cracked it yet.

I too heard this rumor...
searched and searched.......then bought a Note 3 off ebay on 4.4.2 already rooted. Hoping to sell the unrooted Note 3 on ebay for close to or maybe more than the rooted phone. The rumor will most likely end up like they always do....nowhere.
I hope the rumors are true. I can't find anything about who is working and releasing the root method for 4.4.4. Just posts about it's supposed release. I don't want to downgrade until it is official.
You can wish in one hand and sh!+ in the other, and see which gets filled first.
Yeah, they're likely false as always. The real devs have moved on from this device awhile ago.
Dang. Can't even get my Note to downgrade from 5.0 to 4.4.4. Wish there was a way to do a total factory restore, taking me back to 4.4.2 (like how those who upgraded Win8 to 8.1 would revert back to 8 after factory restore). Lately, I've been craving my root, and I don't have the ability to upgrade to Nexus 6P for another 3 months. Meh.. A man can hope, that's for sure!
My Note 3 is still on 4.4.2. I was thinking of upgrading. Bad idea? D:

I'd advise against it if you wish to root/keep root.

well that's your problem, use Verizon image N900VVRUDNJ6 or N900VVRUDNK1
http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/database/SM-N900V/
This still won't get you root though,. I have an unused note 3 so I threw everything at it and bricked it several times. I gave up and just bought an already rooted note 3 from eBay then sold the unrooted phone.

You cannot use a non-Verizon image

I've got an S6 edge that I'm using as my work hack (my daily driver is an S8).
The S6 is on Marshmallow and has never presented the opportunity to upgrade to Android 7.0, despite frequently checking. I know I can flash it, but I'd prefer it was just an OTA upgrade for simplicity. Did this upgrade ever go out OTA for this phone? If so, why haven't I had it?
That aside, is it even a sensible decision to upgrade or is this phone truly better on Android 6.0.1?

Yeah 7.0 was pushed out OTA some time ago. However manually flashing it through odin is no problem if you want to do that.
Actually g925t still provide ota updates for 7. 0 I just did that recently unlocked T-Mobile tho currently in africa Nigeria and I received the updates as well as the patched
Sorry in advance if this is common knowledge. Semi-noob. I searched forums far and wide for past 3 days for this info.
Device: Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge SM-G935T (Snapdragon)
I have the latest Samsung/T-Mobile firmware installed (July 2019 update) with Binary 10.
In a nutshell:
From what I have gathered, Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (T-Mobile) has a locked boot loader, which means that it CANNOT be rooted or modded (at this time). Is this entirely correct?
In detail:
I switched my phone service from T-Mobile to Safelink with the same phone and ported phone number. The warranty is expired, and I accept the risks. I want to get rid of T-Mobile bloatware on my unrooted device, and even install custom ROMs so that I can experiment with the possibility of better WiFi signal strength and other fun stuff. My phone is great, but it does not run as smoothly or fast as I would like it to.
Tutorial after tutorial has resulted in dead ends (SW Check Fail using Odin and download mode, Heimdall, etc.). The main issue seems to be that the binaries cannot be older than what I currently have installed, and I have the latest one, Binary 10.
It is my understanding that this cannot be navigated, unless I get off my butt and figure out how to exploit it myself. Is this correct?
If not, is there any way to get around this locked boot loader issue with the SM-G935T having the latest stock firmware (Binary 10)?
You guys rock.
Tap
I swear to god I've been strugling for solid 1 hour just to find a proper firmware binary 10 just like you. But it seems like worthless. If you find anything please help me *sob*
did you find the solution yet? cz am in the same situation right now, my phone is running on the latest binary 10 like you said...
