Anybody knows whether android 5.1.1 be released for A3, A5 and A7?
Look in Sammobile..
But i don't think it will be any soon since the poor support for these devices
But u can keep looking for it in Samsung updates live website.
I wish someone could make us CM12.1 or something..
2016 series would be obvious, but 2015- from 4.4.4 to 7.1 possibly!

EDIT: The source carrier that "accidentally leaked" the update seems to have made a mistake on their data inputs. No nougat update for 2015 series.
Hypothetically, the A7 (2015) can get Nougat since it runs on Snapdragon 615 processor which is the same processor used by the Hong Kong/ China model of A7 (2016). Maybe developers can port it...
What?! OMG! That would be awesome. Although, I can't get my mind around it, A5 didn't get fresh Marshmallow either, with the new white-UI. How would it get Samsung Experience UI?
Cool, anyways I'm waiting for Sammobile to confirm it.
wow, i love samsung
i highly doubt, that samsung would choose to support exactly this phone to create a long-term solution for updates
We should be more then happy with marshmallow, although it looks like they've done a **** job with it though.
What about A3 2015 can't get update
Sent from my SM-A300FU using XDA Labs
I hope it's true
Someone must have made a mistake there...
It's more interesting why they thought the 2015 series would get Nougat, they didn't even specify it.
I think Sammy ended releasing updates (hopefully we still can get some security patches, though).

Yeah someone misunderstood something. Some sites said it would come to the 2015 series, some of them said just for 2016 and newer. Logical, though. But we don't get mad, do we? We have amazing ROMs to try!
Yep, I edited the OP.

According to this, there will be a Nougat update for the A8. But it doesn't mention if its the 2016 version or the 2015 version, can somebody confirm?

If Samsung doesn't forget about the 2015 version, probably it will get it, too. According to gsmarena, the original A8 was released in August, 2015 and launched with 5.1.1, so the one with newer UI.
I would say the 2016 version is sure to get it and the 2015 is also, likely to get it. However, Samsung cares about how much device can be sold in countries and continents. So if it wasn't a successful phone - like A5 - it's not sure. Check confirmation sites later, like Sammobile, Gottabemobile and other certification sites, like bluetooth and WiFi. Keep your fingers crossed!:highfive:
In my final sadness, I rooted my phone and installed a custom ROM...
As we said - according to the sources - Nougat won't reach our beloved A5s.
WHAT NOW? Optus confirmed it AGAIN that the first gen A5 will get Nougat update in this month!

Checked it now! Optus removed it AGAIN from the list! https://yescrowd.optus.com.au/t5/Blog/Android-Software-Updates-31-01-2017/ba-p/196166 ARE THEY TROLLING? :crying::silly:
Opinions?

Every phone comes with 2 version support generally, especially when its Samsung / HTC etc. So 4.4 will only reach 6.0 and that would be EOL.
Peace,

It's three then. My advice: buy a phone which is launched with a fresh Android (like S8 with 7.0) so it's sure you can enjoy the fresh Android-feeling through two years in three major versions.

Samsung Galaxy A8 2015 SM-A800F
galaxy a8(sm-a800f) with android 5.1.1 come out in 2015 will get nougat update? now galaxy a8 just receive marshmallow update

Answer to this/Hypothetically, the A7 (2015) can get Nougat since it runs on Snapdragon 615 processor which is the same processor used by the Hong Kong/ China model of A7 (2016). Maybe developers can port it... [/Yeah i had a online chat with samsung Australia that i asked them that is it possible that A7 2015 to get Android 7 update? They said me"Yeah it's possible because some Galaxy S5 devices in Australia Have already been updated to Android Nougat. My Galaxy A7 is SM-A7000 Model]
For Note 4 N910C Users.
So if you don't know 7.0 nougat rom development by developer erickwill for our device was stopped at stage where it has SIM Card Bug. it doens't read sim card , because there was not released Exynos Chip Codes and without that codes porting roms is really hard.
old rom thread link: https://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4/orig-development/rom-cyanogenmod-14-1-t3506613
But Several days ago Tab S2 Device which has the same Exynos chip that N910C, has recieved an 7.0 nougat update officially by samsung. link to the rom: http://samsung-updates.com/device/?id=SM-T810
and source codes for Exynos chip was released. this is link to this codes :http://opensource.samsung.com/reception/receptionSub.do?method=sub&sub=F&searchValue=t810
Now when codes are released porting is now possible. we need to wait for new developers who will be interested to port this rom for N910C users.
so if you know some developers or teams you can tag them on this thread to spread the voice that we also want nougat update and we are waiting for it very long time.
thank you
Would it be possible to port other OEMs official trable Android roms to other trable compatible devices? Lets say HTCs official rom to Pixel 2?

No. Those device will still use closed Sourced drivers made for those devices only. Treble is not gonna be as big a deal as you are being lead to believe.
I am a beginner in porting roms field and I want the easiest way for beginners to port any custom rom for any device.
The latest update for my device is Android 5.1.1 and it is obsolote. I know that the most appropriate solution is to buy a new phone, but I want to make a port Android 10+ from any custom ROM for my device, not to save money, but I want to enter this field because I am interested in it and also to share this Method on my YouTube channel.
I have stock rom Android 5.1.1 and I want to port for example DotOS 5, Lineage 17, BlissOS 13, Arrow OS 8 or etc... and thanks in advance
Not possible. It's too old to be upgraded to this version. I got my Samsung Galaxy J2 2016 upto Android 7.1.2 from Android 5 and then 6 (after support end).
