Hi ,
I would like to know why the S8 ultra wifi tablet is the only one not to have a new rom since February? All other releases had March or even April. And I'm talking of course about wifi versions of the tab s8 or tab s8+ series. Thank's for your answer .
February was just 2 months back. And Tablets don't receive updates as frequently as mobile phones.
Update available in the UK, security patch 1st May. Gallery also has the S23 range features.

Hi All:
If they deal with me as fear as they deal with Galaxy S6 / 6 Edge owners I wouldn't complain and I will wait patiently for the update to come, where Galaxy S6 / 6 Edge are getting nearly weekly updates and issue fix and nothing for other smartphones.
the problem for the Note 4 updates that they have to wait double time to make it compatible with the Gear VR !!!!!!
So Samsung think it is not a problem to let the majority of the Note 4 owners angry with Software full of bugs, to satisfy the few Gear VR kids.
I believe that we should push Samsung to change that miserable update policy and not to link Note 4 updates to Gear VR or anything else.
Samsung should deal with smartphones updates in equal way, they should understand that if I bought a Samsung device that will not be the end of the story and they can put me on hold as much as they wish.
Samsung should hear the voice of the people, and they should know the number of unsatisfied owners of Samsung smartphones (Note 4, Note 3 & Galaxy S5.....ect.
I think the way to go is by using social media , twitter & Facebook pages in different languages, to let Samsung & the future customers for Samsung to know that we are facing issues with Samsung software update policy, where they ignore their smartphone software after short time

Samsung doesn't really care about their customers...besides there aren't many people like us on XDA where we wait for the latest and greatest update.I wish they changed over these past years but they didn't.
Posting on social media won't make one single bit of difference they will not update the phone any quicker than they do now, one of the main reasons it takes longer to update the Note 4 is because there is alot more stuff within Touchwiz on the Note series than there is on the S series this takes longer to test and debug before they release it to the public unfortunately.
The S6 is brand new and with it being brand new it came with alot of critical bugs that need to be fixed asap, hence why your seeing more updates for the S6.
The Note 4 will get the updates it still a flagship you just have to be patient, if your not happy with Lollipop then switch back to Kitkat which was alot more stable and bug free than Lollipop currently is until the time comes they release 5.1 or 5.1.1.

Can't say that I'm surprised. But our phone would have benefited from a better, more system wide multi window.

I doubt it because in 2017, that's beyond's note 4's 2 year support. 2016 is the end. and also, if you look at the Note 3, it got its last update in dec. 2015 and it is still 5.0. That was "27" months of support for the Note3.
Using the note 3 as the base, if we were to get android 7, we would have to get it by dec. 2016.

Yea your right. But that is assuming Samsung release Android 7 "on time". Looking back at Android 6, it came out of Google on October 2016. The first note 4s got Marshmellow around June 2016, 8 months after Google released it. But this is still within note 4's 2 year period (note 4 came oUT on Oct. 2014).
Since android 7 was released in Aug 2016, this means that Samsung has around 4 months to release Android 7 to us before 2016 is over. Looking at the past examples, now do you see why I doubt we will get it? Of course this is all my speculation and I'll happily be wrong if do end up getting it.
Samsung mostly gives 2 major system updates to any flagship phone.
Since gingerbread i have been observing that every two version of android looks similar .
Excluding honeycomb cause it was only for tabs.
That also explains why every two versions of touchwiz look similar.
Gingerbread and ICS had many similarities, jelly bean and kitkat had similarities and also lollipop and marshmallow.
This is why the odd galaxy notes(1,3,5) have always been lucky .
There last update isn't similar to previous one , infact there is a major change in terms of UI and features.
For eg. Note 1's last update was jellybean , which was completely different than ICS .
Same for note 3 , whose last update was lollipop , a major upgrade over kitkat .
But unfortunately the even notes have been unlucky.
The note 2's last update was kitkat , which wasn't a big upgrade over jellybean , the UI was almost identical.
And as for the note 4 ,its last update is marshmallow , which samsung decided not to modify for note 4 and hence looks similar to lollipop.

Very sad if that's true [emoji24]
I was thinking that the 8" version may get it, whilst the 9.7" may not. The 8" is still the 8" flagship device but the 9.7" has been superseded by the S3.
Regarding Exynos vs Snapdragon, for the Exynos 2015 version, will be interesting to see what happens to the note 4 (which has the same chipset?)
Knowing Samsung, if any of our devices do get it, we will be waiting until summer 2018.

The Tab S2 9.7" T819 has a possibility of getting Android 8.0 Oreo because mine only had two updates. The updates included Android 7.1 and Security updates. The next update might be the Android 8.0 Oreo because i think the maximum updates for each mobile made by Samsung is 3 since my parents' phones had already updated 3 times
Anyone working on this for the Note 9 yet?
If we look at past experiences with Samsung, Given that last year's Android Pie has not officially made it to the Note 8 yet (more than 7 months after official release) and given that Q is not even out yet, you can expect release about 7 or 8 months after the official release. If we go by the patterns of just about every previous Samsung device before, it will be available by February or March of next year.

Hello!
I have just received my phone, and, to my surprise, realised it was the Hong Kong version(it was bought in Europe, 8 GB version). Has anyone with this device received the Android 11 update? I got the December security patch when I first booted, but no Android 11 yet..
No I have also this phone but still nothing
Same model, and still not android 11.
My brother have a exynos version, he got it like 2 weeks ago
If you wanted the Euro variant I would contact the shop you bought it from, but the extra 2GB of storage is kinda cool. The twrp/rooting/xposed guide in the section suggestion you can do those things just as well on your G7810.
Regarding Android 11, have you tried using Samsung keis to see if it has an option for A11..?
Look what I'm getting!

That's not g7810 my friend
Great Hong Kong version got his android 11 today
I got it too today
The sm-g7810 received one ui 3.1 with march sec patch today. For a Chinees variant it get his updates pretty regular compared to LG I've owned. For the money I've purchased it's a great value

Still waiting on it for SM-G781B (Singapore) - but it looks like this model trails HK updates by a few days, so expect it any day now. Really we can't complain about the current speed of Samsung OS updates...
*Edit*: Yup, just as I suspected, received the update today - maybe this serves as some comfort for all you 7810 owners that the HK updates are not the slowest after all? In any event, they're still plenty fast for all of us in my opinion - certainly much faster than they used to be...
