UPDATE Reading some facebook page, I found that over december our device would get android 4.3 instead of 4.2
I know it's hard to believe, but waiting didn't kill anyone.

You trust Facebook ? And would is different from will ...

I don't know if there is already any official thread about it, but we could let this one for everyone to contribute with news and rumors about android updates from Samsung.
For what I've seen there is a bunch of people expecting JB 4.3. Seems more possible everyday!

It doesn't officially say they'll update our phones to 4.3, but I'm pretty sure thats what that tweet means.

when i see it here http://live.samsung-updates.com/index.php?device=GT-I8190
then i will believe it
until then i am not going to bother hoping, assuming or even justifying that this phone will get 4.3

Don't know if I wanna believe it or it just makes sense, but android 4.3 is not a really big update. Actually, it looks that google is releasing it in order to decrease the fragmentation problem. So it's not insane that Samsung wants to skip 4.2 and go straight to 4.3.

just chillax guys! ...the important is, we will have an update! .... why not enjoy rooting your phone, try all custom roms and themes while waiting for this update?

Sammobile is not Samsung's official twitter. It's sammobile, the Samsung fansite. Is there an official source for this rumour yet?

[Q] Galaxy S3 mini: Coming 4.1.2,4.1.3 vs vs offical or unoffical ?

Guys, Coming 4.1.2,4.1.3 Or custom roms ?

Well the phone is still young so we're going to take some minor and major updates (eg v.5.0) officially from Samsung!
Custom ROMs need a CWM (or custom) recovery first. So we'll have to wait a bit i guess from more experienced members and developers!

Most companies (including Samsung), have agreed with Google that they will provide support with firmware updates for at least 1,5 year after a new device is released.

Sadly manufacturers are not following this rule to the letter...
But our device is still new so we can be hopeful at least!
Ah okay thanks for the reply.

Since this is one of the many other topics around I'll give you this simple answer:
NOPE!
(JB is announced for Jan/Feb so we will see. On the other hand JB was also announced for NOV, so no one actually knows)

I do not think this reply to the question in regards to whether anybody knows about when the official release of JB will take place is correct. While I am not completely sure I think I've narrowed it down to three possiblities.
Yes, OGK, and OSK,
Sorry but are you sure that Samsung is going to release JB for our note?
Yes.

Last two sentences on that link:
The update to Android 5.0, according to Samsung a pretty big step and they will therefore have to take the time. In addition, it is reported that this is a so-called 'pre-list, there may be devices to be removed from or added to this list. So nothing is certain, Samsung has confirmed this list in any way.
So it could be possible that S3 mini will get 5.0

Samsung Galaxy S3 Mini I8190N Android 4.2.2
You use Samsung Galaxy S3 Mini I8190N right ??but your android is 4.2.2 ??? PLEASE REPLY ME ~~ =)
seems that we won't even taste the 4.2.2 ste ericsson has gone bust and can't give the kernel sources and samsung isn't very eager with the less powerful phones she makes anyway..
As for the I8190, this will not go beyond 4.1.2 officially. Sad enough, but thanks to Oliver and Maclaw, there are custom 4.2+ ROMs available

As Noteboy states: There isnt going to be an official update from samsung.
The only way to get the KitKat experience is if you flash an AOSP-based ROM.
Unless somebody develops a kitkat based touchwiz rom; which might never happen.
Unfortunately never.

But isnt it against Kitkat's approach in the first place?
Wasn't kitkat for the old phones as well?
And today I held another phone in my hands for almost like 5 hours or something, after that my note felt like godlike phone.
Note is still good.
Maybe doesn't need kitkat at all but idea to make old phones work more efficient sucks then.

If note 1 is ever getting a update, it's after 2014 April. Custom ROMs are always better, without bloatware and Knox and stuff. TouchWiz free!

Unfortunately Samsung has stopped development for the Galaxy Note. JB 4.1 is as good as it gets.
