Kit kat update for galaxy note 2

anyone know when or if the galaxy note 2 will get the kit kat update?

Change your screen unlock to swipe and see if it comes up. Might have to reboot.  The icon works by touching it and then swiping across the screen.

  • Kit Kat update for Ellipsis 7???

    I tried searching the forums, but was unable to locate any information about a Kit Kat update for this tablet.  I've even Googled it on the internet and still cannot find any helpful information.  I apologize in advance if someone has already created a thread about this topic.  If this is the case, please redirect me to the forum.  Otherwise, does anyone know if Verizon is going to provide a Kit Kat update for the Ellipsis?  Or, are we stuck with the device "as is?"  Thanks!

        Hello nacho1970
    I'm glad to see that you are excited to experience all that Kit Kat has to offer on the Ellipsis 7 tablet. With so many new enhancements, what's there not to love. While there isn't any official info on if/when Kit Kat will be available for the Ellipsis 7 tablet, a great way to stay informed is to visit our news site regularly, http://vz.to/1sif5gW

  • UK Sony Xperia Z1 Kit Kat updates for unbranded phones?

    I have a UK generic unbranded Sony Xperia Z1 (i.e. I purchased my phone outright, not through a carrier) and am experiencing distorted audio and dropouts with Bluetooth when connected and playing music to some devices.  My phone is running Android 4.3 Sony update 14.2.A.0.290. 
    I read Sony have fixed the Bluetooth dropout and distortion issue with a later firmware 14.2.A.1.136 but Sony PC Companion and Sony Update Service will not upgrade my device beyond firmware release .290 (I've completed a 'repair' using both PC Companion and Sony Update Service and the phone is still on 14.2.A.0.290).
    Has Sony not produced a later firmware update for the non branded UK phones since 14.2.A.0.290?  I see the branded phones have got Android 4.4.2 Kit Kat in the form of update14.3.A.0.681, how long will it be before this version is available to UK users who bought their phones outright?

    Hi
    I'm currently having a conversation with Sony Xperia Contact Center (!) in regards to the Bluetooth issue with the .290 update, and why Bluetooth worked fine with the previous Android 4.2 update.  I've pointed out to them that techincally the phone is not fit for purpose (legal term) in its current state.  Awaiting their response

  • Photoshop Touch update for Galaxy Note 10.1

    Photoshop Touch came installed on my Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 at purchase. Is there a way to update this app as updates become available, or do I have to purchase the app from the Android market in order to recieve updates?

    I had issues updating the app too.  It's a little annoying to update the first time.  Here's what I did:
    1)  Close your Photoshop Touch app.
    2)  Find the app that is called something like Samsung apps.  It will run and then the app will disappear from your app list.
    3)  If it's already not there or once you complete step 2, find the app called GALAXY Apps and open it.  This might require an update too.
    4)  Do a search for Photoshop.  You'll get a bunch of options there.  Be careful to not choose the app that you have to purchase.  Find the photoshop app that requires an update.  You may have to sign up for a Samsung account to update it.
    That's it, you should be able to connect after that!  Hope this helps.

  • Why cant I install the latest update for galaxy note 2???

    The latest update for the Verizon Note 2, which i guess is a Canada roaming update, can not install. keeps giving me an error message. Did everything, factory reset (which sucked), took out SIM, power down, etc. can i get rid of this alert?

        @jacm79
    I want to ensure you're able to enjoy the benefits of the latest software update for your Galaxy Note 2!
    What is the exact error message you get when attempting the update?  Are you connected to a WiFi hotspot or cellular data when attempting the update?  Please let me know so that I can further assist.  Thanks!

  • GS4 Can't send SMS after 4.4.2 Kit Kat update

    Just as the title states, updated to kit kat last night and now I cant send SMS, only receive. All other functionality (4g wifi etc) works
    Galaxy S4

    I don't know why so many people are complaining about the Kit Kat update for their GS4.  Folks you have to learn to adjust to new things.  I know its frustrating when your $600 phone that worked perfectly well before but now it is no longer able to make or get calls bothers you, but Android, Samsung, and Verizon know what they are doing.  Right??? They wouldn't release a buggy update that would drastically  change the way you can use your phone without warning you if it wasn't for your good? Right???  You just have to relax and evolve.  Things are changing.  Smart phones making and receiving calls and text messages, and connecting to the internet...that is so last week.  (you know before we upgraded to Kit Kat) .  Now you just need to think positive about all the things your phone can still do.   You may not be able to get a signal to dial out and make and receive calls.  Me neither. But i can still get the voice mails that my boss, my son's school,  and my mom's doctor leave for me.  This Kit Kat has completely changed how I can use my phone. I'm going to remain positive, because I do not want to go back to jail.     I remember 2 weeks ago when I could use my phone to make calls, send and receive text messages, and i used to be able to get calls too. People from all over would call me. It was nice.  Those were the good old days.  But Kit Kat has changed all of that now.  Its a new world and we have to learn to adjust and move on.   Now thanks to Kit Kat my Galaxy S4 is my main remote control for my tv. The IR still works.   I mean I wouldn't have normally spent $600 on a tv remote, but what can you do. Its Android.  They know what's best.

  • Xperia Z, Out of Warranty holding charge for only a few hours since Kit Kat Update

    Hi,
    I am a hapless owner of Xperia Z. I purchased my phone in March 2013 in India during the month of its launch.
    A day after I purchased I noticed that the phone was over heating like ****** and sent it to service center. After I received it back, it was working fine . I managed a workaround for heating by using a think case.
    I moved to USA and here again I had to send my phone to service center for USB Connectivity Issues. 
    Now, since the Kit Kat update, my phone doesn't lasts for more than 4 hours and there's simply no communication from SONY on when will it be fixed. Now because my phone is out of warranty and I don't have a copy of my bill, the customer care refuse to entertain it or redirect to thier service centre.
    I feel cheated as I invested my hard earned money on an expensive paper weight and with Customer care showing total apathy. All I want is a working phone.
    I strongly urge SONY to advertise its short comings as well, like heating, no battery backup, finger prints on touch screen and sluggish performance.

    Hi sksfreedom, At your convenience, please reach out to our colleagues at Sony Mobile for further assistance with your concern. You can reach them at this site: http://www.sonymobile.com/global-en/support/contact-us/contact-info/. Thanks, Charlie

  • I have an older s3 that is off-network, How can I get the kit kat update on my s3?

    I have a "retired" Galaxy S3 that I am keeping as a spare-  The Kit Kat update supposedly has been available since 6/20, but I cannot get the software on my off-network phone to update-  even though is is connected by wi-fi.  I spent about a half hour chatting on-line with tech support Monday, 6/23, who assured me that is would update over wi-fe-  although I have NOT been able to do so yet.   I went into the Verizon store yesterday, and the woman I spoke to there told me all I had to do was swap SIM cards with my active phone, then casually mentioned that if I did that, it would void the warranty on my new phone by taking it off-network.  Great, just what I would want to do...
    I am seriously considering re-activating it for a couple hours, just to get it updated, then deactivating it again.  It would seem there should be an easier way.

    Thank you for the prompt reply, but still unsatisfying.  I spent a couple hundred dollars for this phone less than 2 years ago (not to mention the $600 for the S5 off-contract a couple months ago) and you are telling me that I have to void the warranty or open a new data-service line to get the proper support for my Verizon-branded device?  At this point the S3 is off warranty and primarily used on wi-fi-  I could just as well root it and run custom ROMs I suppose-  nothing to lose at this point, since the company that sold it to me won't even help to keep it up-to-date.  I don't mean to sound like a whiner, but this is not what most would consider good customer support.

  • Droid DNA battery life after kit kat update cut in half

    Since the kit kat update,  my battery has gone from lasting about 13 hours to barely 7. If I am actually using the phone heavily it's less.  If I look under usage, Android system is shown at 76% with Facebook being next highest at 6%. I haven't installed any new apps since well before the update.
    I'm also experiencing a very long delay in opening sms messages- about 45 seconds, with considerable delay in sending as well.
    Any help here? I use my phone almost exclusively for texting and Facebook messaging, as well as taking pictures/using Instagram.

    In response to the list of items in the first link, I've verified the device is undamaged, and I am using the replacement charger sold to me in the Verizon store. My original charger cord came apart within a few weeks of getting the phone.
    I've done a soft reset several times in the last few weeks. Doesn't seem to make a difference. Software is up to date which is where my issue seems to be coming form.
    I'm still using the phone in the same manner as I was before the problem occurred. I've removed or disabled any apps I do not use only a few weeks ago. I have put the phone into safe mode as of this morning, so will see if the battery drains as quickly with with almost everything disabled.
    The phone is generally connected to wifi within our home and always has a strong signal. Display settings are set for the display to sleep after 30 seconds, I am not using live wallpaper, and my brightness is set at about 75%.
    GPS is turned off.
    I'm not sure what my syncing settings are set at, but they have not changed save for one item that was altered when the latest update rolled out. After the update, Google offered me an auto-back-up service for my photos and videos (uploading them to my Google account) which I turned on. I've turned this off for now. Otherwise my settings for push/pull are unchanged.
    I don't stream audio or video from my phone with any frequency (less then once a week). I have not yet done a device reset. Hoping to hold off on that if possible.
    Even in safe mode, there is still an extremely long delay in accessing my SMS messages. That has not changed. I will update more at the end of the evening or tomorrow.

  • DROID RAZR MAXX HD - Battery Life Halved following Kit-Kat Update

    While I like many aspects of the Kit Kat Update, the battery life on my RAZR MAXX HD is half of what it once was under Jelly Bean.
    I have tried the same Smart Action settings used previously, when I was getting up to 3 days per charge...and I have turned off all the Smart Actions, but the result is still the same. I am now lucky to get 24 hours out of a charge...under very light usage.
    I was also sometimes unable to toggle wifi with the Smart Actions turned on. No such issues as long as the Smart Actions are turned off.
    I am hesitant to perform a Factory Reset, but is that my only option?
    It does seem as if there should be a 4.4.2 update forthcoming, but I have seen nothing to indicate that it is.

        I'm sorry you're having issues with the battery on your device bljusn. I know its frustrating and thanks for trying all those steps to correct the issue. The hard reset would be the last step towards fixing some of the issues with your phone. When you perform the hard reset, make sure you don't restore your apps because they could be causing some of the issues with your phone if their not compatible with the new software. We recommend adding them on one by one to check for issues. Keep us posted.

  • Minor Update for: Galaxy s4

    Here's the Info: Via D.L. For 2 Galaxy Devices..
    http://www.droid-life.com/2014/12/02/minor-updates-roll-out-to-galaxy-s4-and-galaxy-note-3-on-verizon/

    Hi  I have been reading most of these posts here waiting in anticepation on the release of the lolliop for the galaxy s4 since the rubbish update that was rolled out of Kit Kat.   Sorry for my first post/reply here to be one of negativity but considering both o2 and Vodafone have now release this version of Android to the GS4 I think it to be very poor that EE has taken this long for them to release this update.   What is frustrating me more is that I did not entend to update my phone to Kit Kat but the annoying nag screen kept coming up and althought I kept dismissing it, on one occasion, I was connected via WiFi to access the play store and as I went to choose this icon, the nag screen came up and guess what!! the install option was straight in line with the play store !.   I really feel let down by EE at the moment as I moved off the last network hoping that EE would be better but it appears I was wrong. I cannot upgrade my phone because my upgrade period has not been reached either so I am stuck with a lump of plastic that was once a great phone on Jelly Bean and now a big lump of plastic with a shoddy battery life, slow to operate whether it is calling, texting or even just unlocking the phone!!!!!!. Please EE sort this upgrade out and please make sure it does not make the phone worse that the Kit Kat version Thank  You TimCS
