That article is 2 years old and no Crapsung is not going to update our device anymore as its now obsolete for them.
As far as I know official updates stopped at 4.1.2
The only way you are getting 4.2.2 or 4.4.4 or even 5.0 is by a custom CM or AOSP ROM
Thanks to all devs I have been on 4.4.4 around a year now
REVENGE SOLVES EVERYTHING

I am not a big fan of touchWiz...
Or can it be expected? coz there are only a few ROM for i9305 right now...
Not that I know of, I'm just waiting for Cyanogenmod.. Hopefully some devs get their hands on our phones soon..

There are no 4.2 official roms for the i9305 as of yet. Once the s3 gets 4.2 then a few weeks later you can get an update to 4.2.
Latest you can get is 4.1.2 of the official roms. 4.2 is still in development stages
unfortunately not, although I am waiting for the same thing despite multi-window being awesome.
I did read over in the dev forum though that a liquidsmooth i9300 port is being worked on? not too sure how progress is going for that but hey it is the christmas break
Hey guys
So Android Lollipop got announced. Looks awesome and beautiful.
And I see even the Moto E is getting the Lollipop update....SO I was just wondering , maybe ,just maybe it might be possible that a Lollipop ROM could be possibly developed? Fingers crossed !!
yeah it's possible but not in the coming days or even weeks
final android lollipop will be released in the 3rd of November with nexus 6 and nexus 9 then if we are so lucky, someone will port it to our device after weeks or maybe months, then maybe we will see official releases from cm, pa and slim.
but if you are talking about a stock lollipop rom from samsung... sure you are kidding
Some news?
I guess you've completely missed this thread then....?

Android 5.0 (Lollipop) Bootloader and KitKat Compatibility
Everyone wants Lollipop, however it is worth considering some of the possible consequences of upgrading via OTA update.
Bootloader:
A new Bootloader (BL) will almost certainly be included in the OTA update. It is also very likely no KitKat Kernel, stock or custom will be able to boot properly with the 5.0 BL. Perhaps the Kernel DEVs can find a workaround.
Root: (ETA: Unknown)
It may take some time to gain root access on Lolipop as on other devices this has required a custom Kernel. A custom kernel itself may require kernel sources to be released - something that has taken weeks / months in the past.
Xposed Framework:
Developer has said he will wait for CyanogenMod based on Lollipop before properly starting development of an ART version of Xposed. CM12 may take a few weeks to release. Expect to do without Xposed for at least a month, probably longer since root is also required (see above.)
Custom Recovery:
This has not been an issue before, but it is always possible a new Bootloader could break compatibility with existing Custom Recoveries. Obviously, you would not be able to restore a CWM / TWRP backup without a functional custom recovery; but even then, it is unlikely you will be able to boot your KitKat backup.
Custom ROMs:
This is another area that could be affected by a new Bootloader. It is unknown if existing custom ROMs will require new Kernels / system changes in order to work with the new BL - something that could take days, weeks or months.
Performance:
Currently the performance difference between KitKat and Lollipop is unknown. If the first release of Lollipop for Android One has performance issues, you may be unable to revert back to stock KitKat.Possible solution:
Wait for a flashable zip [NOT OTA Update zip] of Stock Android One Lollipop ROM - this would mean your Bootloader remains at it's current version and potentially allowing you to change 'back and forth' between Stock KitKat and Stock Lollipop. However, it is currently unknown if the newer BL is a requirement for Android 5.0 Kernels.
This is taken from the Moto G thread and all credits goes to @lost101.The sole motive of this is to create awareness about the new bootloader included in 5.0
Thanks For The Info @DC07 :highfive:
Thanks For The Information Bruda !!
This thing is only for device like motorola, samsung etc.. As I never saw same thing for nexus.. Motorola does not allow to downgrade so they update bootloader in every android version update.. I dont think it will be same for sprout
Let it arrive ,no point in discussions on thongs that are not confirmed

Nope. The bootloader was updated on my nexus 7 flo for the 4.4.2 OTA. Since this update is much bigger I think we'll have a bootloader update too.

Yes,according to the ss posted in the fb group.But this doesn't mean everyone starts spamming his pm.
Let him take his time.This will make our lollipops taste more sweet
doubts about lollipop arise
Can devs already make a lollipop custom rom for mi 3? Well I've seen a custom lollipop AOSP rom for galaxy s3 mini and samsung hasn't even released official ones for their flagship devices yet. So I'm a bit curious if we could have an early access on 5.0
Nope.

We don't have source code, for now we need to wait for ivan (developer of aosp 4.4.4 rom) to release something.

Don't expect anything until sources released
Once miui v6 Andr. 5 comes out I think we have more Lollipop but still closed source.

the s3 mini lollipop rom was just a shell, nothing worked and its been over 2 weeks and no update, maclaw booted the rom but phone didnt work no calls no sms no sound no internet no camera so basically a shell. itll be a bit yet before any custom rom works with lollipop. Still Thanks to novafusion(maclaw) for leading the way over samsung..
So Finally the wait is over as Ivan today released the Lollipop build aosp rom
Check miui forum for that
Sent from my MI 3W ?

Can any one suggest any good Lollipop 5.1.1 ROM which is still maintained/updated till date ? I just need good, stable lollipop ROM which will be updating per month once with Google's monthly security patches. Currently I am on Unofficial Pac- man ROM but the Dev has dropped support it.
Yaa I know MM has become quite stable now but still I want to be on LP.
Thanks.

I want to stay with Lollipop, but I think that there isn't any rom that is still updated.
I tried Marshmallow, but it's a bit slow here and touch commands response isn't as good as it is on Lollipop.
If think the only way to update is compilling CM12.1 from source, because they are updating the security patches.
