Hi guys
What did you think about android pie update? we'll get it or not?
Don't know. But with all the problems on the Pixel platform (v1 and v2) I would not go for the upgrade. While there isn't much activity on xda so check out the google forums https://productforums.google.com/forum/#!forum/phone-by-google
In my experience my Pixel XL microphone stopped functioning the day after the v9 update. I went through troubleshooting with Google and could not get it to work in safe mode nor after a factory reset. Luckily I purchased the extended warranty so they shipped out a new phone overnight. The replacement phone did update to v9 but I did not let it re-install all my apps from a backup. I then did a factory reset and reinstalled the apps and the phone seems to be stable now.

This is only pixel or general problem with pie?

Don't know. Pixels were the first to get the Pie update for those of us on Project Fi and some of the other carriers seeing they are Google produced phones. I guess we'll see as the update broadens out beyond the Google phones to other platforms. Note this has affected both v1 and v2 Pixels. So I'd be surprised if it is something specific to Pixel. We'll just have to wait and see as more manufacturers roll out Pie.
It does appear that doing a factory reset after the install does resolve any issues. Unclear why this would be necessary. But the refurbished Pixel XL I received is running on Pie as good as the 8.1 Oreo I was running before on the original phone. Might be worth waiting until 9.1 is released until they work out all the bugs. Why did I upgrade the refurbished Pixel XL? Because once it did the backup to Google I could not downgrade my Pixel XL. Otherwise I'd have had to start from scratch reinstalling all the applications. By upgrading it to Pie I was able to have Google simply restore all the apps. Though I had to re-login to all the apps which was a real PITA but that is part of moving to a new phone.
My wife's Pixel has alerted her to the Pie update and she has prevented it from installing. While we do have a backup Moto G6 seems to be a waste of money to upgrade to Pie as I had to pay the $99 deductible on the extended warranty to get my Pixel XL replaced. Hopefully now I'm good for at least another 18 months before I need to purchase a new phone. These Pixels were pretty expensive.

It has been the experience with the S1 and S2 that Samsung would provide updates to the major releases of Android that came out within two years from the date of release of the tablet, however possibly with major delays. For example, it took Samsung something like one year and a few months (since Marshmallow was announced) to release the Marshmallow update for the S1, so beware.
I don't think we get Pie as neither Samsung or the community cares about the tab s3, this is a ghost device!
But we will get it.. 2 major updates that is Samsung's policy

It all depends on the sales volume for the Tab S3. If the release of the Tab S4 leads to certain price reductions and the Tab S3 becomes more popular, then, yes, it is quite possible that it may be upgraded to Android Pie. Otherwise, I do not really believe that this is really going to happen. Unfortunately, Samsung has dramatically overpriced the Tab S4 and it may not feel the "necessity" of price reductions for the S3. Who knows!! Let's wait and see.

I have just checked with Samsung. They have lowered the S3 price by $100. It now retails for $449.
According this german website samsung is really planning to release android pie for tab s3

Guys, should i buy a 32GB LTE TAB S3 for 300Eur, or a 64GB LTE TAB S4 for 520Eur . I want it for my mother, she is browsing the web in bed on her smartphone a lot, a tablet would be better for her

For the purpose described, the Tab S3 is the smarter buy. Really, you would get very little for the additional money. I am not sure that your mom would have any use for Dex (and frankly, I do not have such use either).

Considering that Samsung has not discontinued the Tab S3 and that it is still actively selling it as a lower cost alternative to the S4, I think that it would be proper to provide an Android 9 upgrade, considering that many are actually just now buying the device.

Lol. Grinch of salt? Must be close to Christmas already.
Just because we haven't gotten 4.4.4 doesn't mean T-Mobile or Samsung won't skip to L.
I had a sprint s3 on 4.2 and it skipped the 4.2.2 update and went straight to 4.3. So there's a possibility of that happening for our devices.
Why do threads like this pop up every time some news article quotes an ETA? This is how it goes EVERY TIME for US carriers....International gets the update first....maybe 1-3 months after the OS update is released...then US Carriers "may" see the update based on the carrier's prerogative 3-6 months after that. So don't even think of holding your breath until you see the international version get the update.
But certainly use this thread to discuss upcoming features if you like rather than see another 10 of these threads pop up.

I'm fine with skipping 4.4.4 really
Got it on my s4 and it really isn't much different.
The video preview looked nice though.
Hopefully I can still upgrade with mobile Odin when it comes out a keep root.
I finally have my Linux box setup correctly so I can make a firmware only file from it too as well as make a custom rom which I can remove the tethering checks and enable 180° rotation too

yea 4.4.4 is not a big deal either for me...... I prefer we get L quickly and not take even longer because they release 4.4.4 a month before
The audio enhancements (low latency) alone are well worth the wait for Android L. RAW format and other camera enhancements will hopefully be embraced and enhanced further by Samsung.
Yes, skipping 4.4.4 straight to Android L with little delay on release would be my preference.

There's a remote possibility, if a GPE S5 is released, that we could flash a GPE rom that could also support Wi-Fi calling. Wouldn't that be sweet... Lollipop for both TW lovers and pure Android lovers, all on one device.
Of course, many things would have to fall into place for all this to happen. But if it did, the T Mobile S5 would be a great phone to have.

Great news, Galaxy S5 owners: You may not have to wait that much longer to get Android 5.0 Lollipop on your favorite phone. SamMobile’s sources indicate that Lollipop will start rolling out to the Galaxy S5 sometime in December, which hopefully means you should get it on your own device before the year is over.
SamMobile says that Samsung is making some adjustments to its TouchWiz overlay to make it fit in better with Material Design so hopefully this means there won’t be too much of a jarring difference between what you’ll get on the Galaxy S5 with TouchWiz and a Galaxy S5 with stock Android.

The Tab S got Lollipop and Marshmallow, the Tab Pro didn't get a single update and got stuck on Kitkat.

Well, considering that we are still waiting for Oreo, if the S3 does get Android P, it would likely only arrive around mid 2019.
Would you be happy to wait that long? I wouldn't.
Having had my S3 since June 2017, I will most likely have moved on to another tablet by that time. (due to battery and performance issues that are likely to crop up as the tablet ages)
I'm keeping an eye on the tablet market as it seems likely that we will see a high-end Chrome tablet sometime in 2018, which in my opinion would likely be a better alternative to an Android P tablet.
I dont think so...
Google is ditching support for tablets from android P and up so if we get a update most likely we will get a Chrome OS update or a very very slim chance of Tizen but most likly samsung will just leave it as it is. Sometimes i wish samsung did not use Android anymore it is causing then sooooo many problems

Google is ditching its tablets not support for tablets.
Incorrect info.
No reason why Samsung won't continue to produce tablets and update the software for them as long as there is profit in the market. Probably even more so now Google have dropped its own tablets
Google only provide the base source code of each OS, it's up to the OEM's to tailor it to their needs.
Also just to note, historically higher end Samsung devices get 2 major updates.
Seeing as this device was released with Nougat, it's quite likely to receive one more update to Andoid P after receiving Oreo.
What a deception... I was hoping Samsung to be more faster on update.

seriously?
I hope no betas are released until Samsung's official one :laugh:

Q is no big deal anyway. There isn't a whole lot going on with it other than Google will be able to release security updates via Play Store with their new Project Mainline. It will also give the Pixel kids something to run around and squeal about because we know how they get all puffed up when they can say they got it first. ?

I've been through 2 betas with Samsung and before that I was in 3 or 4 with Motorola. To be honest, Samsung doesn't have a clue on how to run a beta program. When we reported problems in the Samsung Members app, the best we got if anything at all was to submit a report through the app to the developers. As far as I know no one got feedback other than we're looking into it. Everything I reported with the S9 carried over to the Pie final. Motorola had a dedicated forum with moderators that actually passed feedback back and forth. I even spoke with a software engineer two times.
Beta with Samsung is sort of here it is, hope it works. :laugh:
well,i was hoping samsung can update a new full screen gesture like android Q , MIUI 10 , oneplus 6's or maybe just build-in one hand operation in next firmware. and faster fingerprint scanning,it really sucks when you try so hard and it just not unlock the phone

Not sure I agree here. I'm running it on my Pixel 3 xl and it has many noteworthy features. There is live caption which let's you get real-time transcriptions of what is being said on any video, in any app, across the entire OS. There are systemwide UI changes like dark mode and improved gestural navigation and the back button; over 40 updates to the way security, permissions and privacy agreements are handled. Also, there are improvements to Android's security which will make them come faster thought the Playstore (Project Mainline), better parental controls, new Notification Assistant that will help you reply to incoming chats and other minor stuff. In my opinion, it is by no means a small upgrade, specially when you consider it is still in Beta 3 and will probably add even more features. So far, it runs smooth as butter for me and had great battery life.

You accept it because that's pretty much the way Samsung has always been and not anyone here is going to change that. When someone buys a Samsung phone, they need to accept that as a condition. I would bet money that the majority of users worldwide care less about updates as long as their phone works reliably.

Other brands may very well offer beta firmware and if what you want is for firmware to come out quickly then I suggest next time you get one of those devices but what I said was be patient, it will eventually come out. You shouldn't be here just to whine about updates not coming out, I've been on XDA for nearly ten years now and it annoys me when people complain about the speed of updates. You should want a complete update without bugs and that takes time, making a post about it won't speed up the release and just clutters up the feed.
Samsung if you see has alot of devices to take care of. They release security patches on monthly bases to phone ranging from 100-max$ they have. Also the one ui which is very heavy skin needs to be fully usable and bug less in new android q. I myself have tried betas and didn't find anything usefull expect bragging in front my friends. Apps run same or maybe 1-2% faster in Q.
With Android betas you can download a new CPU & more RAM to your device so this is why it's so important to get it quickly from the manufacturer.

Is look Android 10 UI 2.0 beta is coming soon ?
https://www.sammobile.com/news/which-galaxy-phones-will-get-an-android-10-beta-program/
Here's why:
As we all know, our beloved angler is completely unuseable in 2020. The main reason why is "thanks" to the Qualcomm Snapdragon 810 Hell Dragon System on Chip powering this device. So this got me thinking, if people can merge Coffee Lake chips onto x200, why we can't move newer mobile platforms like 8994 or even newer onto our beloved angler by building a new motherboard? I mean, the 1440p AMOLED panel is still killing even in today's standard, and the industrial design is so great.
If anyone has suggestions plz let me know.
Happy Valentine's day(I dunno if it's still that day but)
You can get a ram upgrade etc but don't know if they upgrade the soc. People send the angler off to China to get the upgrade done but don't know about long term use. My angler still rocks on all 8 cores and doesn't overheat unless pushed. I was all custom but needed Google pay to work so went back to stock and it works better than having a custom ROM on.

I agree Nexus 6P is the GOAT imho
I have had all sorts of phones. I actually had (and used with a primitive data plan) the original MDA by HTC if anyone remembers that thing. I do miss that slide out keyboard though, but I digress. My point is this Nexus 6P is the most impressive phone I have ever owned. I have been using it since the day I purchased back in 2015 and the only thing that has gone wrong was the battery just this last year. I butchered most of the install but it still works. I am beginning to wonder if this is not a phone at all but a Terminator sent back from the future to kill John Connor, but it is just hibernating until by some miracle the last movie disappears.

Samsung is doing a pretty stellar job with its firmware updates lately. Then again, nothing is perfect. And although the ...

I received March security update on March 14th on my A52s. I see no performance, battery or any other issues.
Anyway if Samsung messed with software on purpose i doubt all those users would go and buy newer Samsung phone again. It's a reach..
A52s is a better device anyway with 778G instead of that Exynos. And it has 3.5mm jack.
Well,my a52 became laggy.Don't know is it because of samsung updates or intalled/uninstalled apps during time or some google bul***** but it happened with every midrange I bought in the past...

Well A52 has way slower CPU and i would advise against updating to newer Android on midrange phones anyway. Updating definitely does slow down phones, but it's not like Samsung is doing it on purpose..
Xiaomi for example isn't updating mid range phones to android 12, but instead offering new MIUI 13 coupled with Android 11. Samsung should start doing something like this.
Similar is with Windows i have couple of older machines that work great on 7, fast and snappy, but on 10 or 11 are just unusable.
I have a52s,my mistake I hope that one ui 4.1 will improve laggy animations and won't update my phone anymore...I have one question,is it possible to downgrade android and oneui to a11 and latest version of one ui 3 before a12?I have flashed via Odin last time I had Samsung but that was 5-6 years ago when I had a5...

Then i don't know i honestly don't have a problem. Did you try clearing cache from recovery, that's something i usually do every time i do a major update to newer version.
I believe it's possible to downgrade with Odin yes. Tutorial
When i bought A52s i instantly got the oneui 4 update and updated so i really can't compare it if it would work faster on oneui 3.

I patched the ap tar from the last 11 A528B firmware. Did an install of the patched ap, cp, bl, and the csc tar not home one. Presto i had 11 on phone rooted. Used zygisk and safety fix 2.2.1 and lposed zygisk and all is good. Firefds R and GravityBox R working great....so yes you can go back to 11 and I am fine with the dec security patch.

Did Apple not get sued, for doing something like this.. They made the phones batteries go south, just so people would buy a new one.. I'm planning dumping this phone by the end of next month.. I'm not sure what I'm getting but it will not be a A53.

Not exactly like that:

in the end OneUI is just android and we know android updates are always a joke, see Pixel 6/Pro, Oxygen/ColorOS, MIUI and etc...
I've had no significant issues with my A52s after any of the updates, just the odd bug/glitch. I wonder how much of this is down to individual apps not behaving nicely with the update, giving the impression that the problem is with Samsung's software.
