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.

May be Google's approach but not Samsung 's.

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!
Smack that thanks button If I helped!
Always make a nandroid backup before trying anything risky

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

[Q] upgrade galaxy note (n7000) to Jelly Bean?

As per the title, I'm wondering if this is now possible? I've checked via settings => update - but it says no update available.
- Is this update now available?
- If so, does it only apply to phones that are rooted? How do I go about getting the phone rooted?
This should be q&a, report yourself.
There is a leaked version out called ls7 or ls2,both available to download in development section. As they're leaks, you'll need to be rooted, follow drive ketans thread on rooting, easiest way is to install philz kernel via stock recovery.
Don't post questions in general, it's possible they'll just be closed.

Hi there. Apologies - upon reflection, you're quite right. I didn't notice the Q&A subsection when I went to post initially. Just saw 'general' and thought this would fit into general. Mods, please move as necessary.
anyone?

Guess you talked chinese for him when explaining the rooting and upgrade procedure to jelly bean in post #2
Or he stopped reading after the phrase he quoted ofcourse...
He needs to read a LOT. spoonfeeding the procedure is dangerous if he is not even reading the replies.

Back up the bus people. You originally posted this;
"This should be q&a, report yourself."
Clearly, you came back and edited your post later. I thank you for that - but people, ease up on the assumptions and judgements. I never asked for spoonfeeding from anyone!
Is there a likelihood that this upgrade will be officially supported at some stage?

You are correct, I did only post that originally because usually posts are closed immediately in general, but I edited way before you replied, pretty much straight after, certainly not after 3 days that it took for your response.

I think you are new here.
Let me explain it in layman terms.
- Is this update now available?

Yes available as a leak.
The update is not official till at least December.
That is why you couldn't see a new JB update from Software Update (OTA).
- If so, does it only apply to phones that are rooted? How do I go about getting the phone rooted?

You need not necessarily be rooted to install JB.
You can flash XXLS2, the earliest leak available from Odin 3.04 (The ROM flasher for Sammy phones)
XXLS7 is known to be unsoundly slow. It's probably not optimised yet from Sammy's side.
However the infamous Multi-window feature is available on XXLS7.
If you really want the latest and greatest aka XXLS7 with all the bells and whistles,
you need to be rooted. As for that, do your own research. :victory:

I assume you mean XXLS7 from leak, not XXLS7 cooked by xda devs. Because the last one is actually faster than XXLS2, and battery life better. No match.
@livebyte : Thanks for taking the time out for your comprehensive post. I think I will hold off and wait for the official update. That was what I was referring to when I posted initially. I appreciate that there are alternative roms available - but if the official becomes available sometime this month, then I guess that's the path of least resistance.

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.
http://androinica.com/2011/05/android-updates-for-18-months/
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.

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?

AT&T S5 Devs, do we have any?

Really curious to see if we have any Devs working on the AT&T S5 yet? If so, when do you all think we can expect to start seeing some stuff in the development threads? Obviously BL needs unlocking, if possible. Do we know of anyone working on this?
Thanks Guys!!!

Wow, you haven't read this forum much before posting, have you.
No root yet = no development yet.

I am aware there is no root. If your insinuating that there is some other thread on the subject, I am fairly certain there is not. If you mean something different entirely then would you please elaborate?

My S5 is coming in today. Locked boot loader means no development ever except for maybe some safe strap stuff much later down the road which is just rehash of stock roms. No AOSP or CM.

I personally don't really care about roms, as I like the new Touchwiz and don't want to lose some of its nice features. I would like to have root, though. Hopefully someone finds a way for that to happen soon.
Edited OP to clarify on some confusion about exactly what I was asking.

Chainfire needs to the stock recovery to build root for the device, basically auto root by chainfire modifies stock recovery temporarily, flashes su then flashes back stock firmware through odin.

You can't pull recovery without root on your device, the only thing we ATT users can do is wait for Samsung to post the firmware which they havent, SM-G900A is the ATT model number, Tmo and Sprint are already up so they already have root.

hmm
Keep in mind guys that if the ATT BL is locked chances are CF Root will fail to flash or boot even if CF builds one for ATT...also if this happens knox warranty is tripped leaving you without warranty coverage and no root...likely a new KK exploit will have to be found...hope I'm wrong about the BL as I'd like to get rid of bloat before handing the phone off to GF..
