I doubt it's true. If you look on sammobile, different versions of 4.1.2 are still being pushed.
4.2.2 will probably be skipped, 4.3 might get released at some point, but I think sammy is pushing
people to upgrade to N3. It's in THEIR bottom line to get people to buy new hardware, not to
continue to update older hardware. Personally, for my use, stock 4.1.2 is very stable (N7000 international)
Nope, there isn't any official 4.2.2.

Has there been any indication if T-Mobile will update their original Note to JB 4.1? With AT&T's leaked JB 4.1 update , I'm curious if anyone has heard one way or another where T-Mobile might be with this.

Yeah that is a good question. Along with the Note I'm curious if they're going to also drop the JB update for the SGS2.
I hope they do update the Note soon though. I just updated my SGS3 and I really like Google Now.
I hope they do. I loved it on my gs3! I didnt wanna root but might have too. Is there a note 2 rom available?

Along with the benefits of the upgrade to 4.1 Jellybean , the original Galaxy Note is getting the Premium Suite upgrade. No word on if/when T-Mobile may pass this along officially.
I've seen the Samsung page about this, and listened carefully at TMoNews.com. Anyone heard or seen anything new about this?
Unless you're really hung up on the premium suite, I don't see any reason not to go to CM10. I'm using a nightly and 4.2.2 is very stable and fast. I can't believe how smooth the screen transitions are, generally a faster phone overall and you're not stuck with all the other bloatware. I do miss wifi calling, but my coverage has somewhat improved where I live. I also have Google Now, which I'm still playing with. I too got sick of waiting for the 4.1.2 update. So if we could get the premium suite and TMO wifi calling ported over to our CM10 distro, it would be perfect IMHO.
I agree that CM10 is a great stable fast rom, but it would be nice for Samsung and T-Mobile to give a little support to our phones. I personally would like to see the Suite make it's way down to us, even as a flash alone package from a dev. But considering the lack of devs for our devices, I won't hold my breath.

I have given up on waiting. Galaxy Note users on Tmobile is so low that I have a feeling they couldn't careless for us anymore if we get the JellyBean update or not. I am here in XDA right now looking for the best custom ROM for the original Galaxy Note. My GNote's stock firmware is already giving me the Windows98-bloated-and-slow effect.
So far I'm leaning more on the Padawan ROM, although not officially for Tmobile, I'll take chance because of the support for the S-Pen. Besides I'm reading on some post that it works.
[UPDATE]
No go on the Padawan. Too much hassle. I need my phone to work, right away. Instead of debugging it, I just installed AvatarROM. I need Wifi Calling though. Please help.
I would like to know if there has been any progress in the development for this phone. Has there anything happened since the release of Jelly Bean? And how about the Kernel, is it still corrupted or are we going to see some cm10 or AOSP based roms soon?
Even though JB has just been released, some people are still waiting for their OTA updates.
Give it some time.

The last thing that I read was that it would be time-consuming and sometimes difficult to port all those ARM-based ROMs to the RAZR i because the architecture is so different. The phone has been available for about 5 months now, if dev hasn't come along yet...
This doesn't create choice as dev does but at least the official firmware is being updated quickly enough, Jelly Bean after 5 months, not too bad, I'd say this phone is in a good place for Key Lime Pie...that may not seem like much until other phones get dumped by their manufacturers.
According to this article on Android Police, AT&T is scheduled to officially release 4.3 for the S4 Active on Christmas Eve (12/24). This is just a leaked schedule so take that with a grain of salt, it could be sooner but more than likely it will be later. If you would like to try out a leaked pre-release of 4.3 for the S4 Active you can download it from this thread. Just remember that if you flash the leaked version of 4.3 you probably won't be able to get updates when 4.3 is officially released as has happened in the past.

Lol 12/24 is 2 months out.... I been sitting on the AOSP thinking I only had to wait till the end of October to get on the official release..... Looks like I will be running the 4.3 leak now.... By the time 4.3 is official on the S4 Active it will be obsolete.... Sweet. Thanks
I'm normally not patient, but 4.3 Doesn't have anything that I have been chomping at the bit for, so I will call it a Christmas Present. Yay!

I'm not seeing anything on 4.3 that makes me want to upgrade either. I would be wary of the official update though because I'm almost positive there are going to be issues rooting it which would cause problems with SafeStrap. If SafeStrap ever gets kexec working I doubt I will ever accept an official update.
I'm not sure where exactly this guy got his information, but his post seems to suggest that taking the new 4.3 update will make rooting exponentially harder.

Yeah I have automatic updates disabled since I rooted the phone and will wait until some other rooted beta tester makes sure it works and doesn't break root.

Do you have a link to that? I can't seem to find that date anywhere. The closest thing I've been able to find is that the regular AT&T S4 is getting the 4.3 update on November 13th.

Yep, people are confusing the S4 with the S4 Active again.

You need to search and read. It's one of the basic principles of XDA and you'll find people saying that over and over.
For example if you start reading this thread from the beginning you might find your answer.
Well not to be an ass, but this thread mentions three different dates. So the question may have been for clarification purposes.

HI all,
So Samsung has decided that we won't get any more updates, which means no official 4.3 for us, which is a bit disappointing but can't say I was surprised.
However I was thinking, how come no one is porting the Samsung 4.3 firmware from Note2 or Note3 to our original Note? Would this even be possible and is it something that might happen in the near future?
Many thanks for your comments.

That was a joke?
GNote is actually dead to them, 4.4 will be released only for GS4,GN3 and others new phones
Hi all. Just a quick question. With the latest from sammobile saying Samsung will release 4.4 kitkat to i9305's I was wondering if anyone knows a source to get the firmware. Also is anyone going to develope said firmware on xda for more useful stock based roms.
Just read an article online saying the firmware will roll out end of may/beginning of June.
So will there any developers willing to create stock based roms when this is finally released?
So its still not released yet. Anyone any info as to when its being released?
no info yet...i'm checking daily for 4.4
i check on http://samfirmware.com/
Nothing yet. I fear that even when Samsung release it that possibly each Network provider may need to test/add all their branding to it before it gets rolled out which will add even more time to the release.
Looking forward to it however.
not released yet, i'm also checking daily on sammobile.com
hello everybody
does anyone else get the feeling that samsung are just draging there heals for some reason.
what the reason is, is anyones guess.
its almost like they know that we are waiting for it and they dont want us to get it, because the people on here are doing a better job of creating a firmware than they are and they get paid to do it LMAO ROFL
dont you think it s funny
just my 2 cents
So I read that Samsung have pushed out 4.4 to american phones but still waiting for the international release. The mind boggles as to why this is taking so long!
Damn you Samsung. By the time this gets released I'll have upgraded to the note 4. . . probably.
