When does Lollipop hit AT&amp;T Note 4? I have read many articles that the Note 4 was going to receive Lollipop late January. But still no updates. I believe the Galaxy S5 AT&amp;T has Lollipop. Any one have any ideas what the release date is?

Android 5.0 (Lollipop) was officially announced on October 15th, 2014.  You can review the high-level changes at the  and the announcement on the official .  Of course, not all devices will get this update right away and others won't get it at all. Each manufacturer and carrier often choose to add their custom modifications which tend to delay the official release.  When will each device get Android 5.0, either officially or unofficially, if ever?  See also:

I keep receiving the following notification about new updates:    If I then run the Software Updater, however, I don't receive any of these updates on Ubuntu 16.04.    Does someone have the same problem?

I have app version 1.0.95 beta and android os 8.0.0. My new phone is Samsung galaxy note 8, and the stack exchange app was installed automatically when I set the phone up (it's a warranty replacement). Notifications are turned on in the app. For one comment on one of my posts there was an indicator on the icon on my home screen for the app that I received it, but no push notification. For the comment on my answer that was posted yesterday there was no notification whatsoever except by email that I received today.

This is a common question by those who have just rooted their phones.  What apps, ROMs, benefits, etc. do I get from rooting?  What should I be doing now?

What is the new Inbox icon () supposed to represent?  It reminds me of cardboard 3d glasses or oculus rift or even a upside down ( old )telephone. Is it supposed to be a basket of sorts?

Is there a technical reason why Android phones general lag a lot behind the stable released version of Android?    This applies to both new phones, for example a recent trip to the phone shop everything was 4.0 to 4.2.1, KitKat could not be seen. And also old phones, my girlfriend's iPhone 4 had an OTA update to the latest OS, this is a July 2010 phone, whilst a July 2010 Android is basically a paperweight.    Presumably Android itself doesn't concern itself with the actual hardware, and thus talks to the OS via abstractions? I guess then the handset maker just provides the drivers for the specific hardware, thus I can't see the issue with pushing OTA updates if the ABI remains stable (my phone doesn't grow new hardware features).

I got my Galaxy S4 today (i337M), it's wayyy better than my old SII hehe.  I immediately removed the stock Bell firmware and put the latest snapshot available from CyanogenMod.  I'm wondering if it's possible to convert apps like S Planner, S Note, S Health to CyanogenMod.  Current stock android version available for i337M is 4.2.2. Latest Android version for CM is 4.4.  If I install CM 4.2, can I import/install the APKs and then upgrade to 4.4?  Hope you'll be able to help me :)

I am getting a 1st gen iPod touch for a friend and I was wondering if you can download like apps and games on it and if it has emojis? It would help to get an answer before I buy it!

I've been trying to get my hands on Swift, but I can't seem to find it.  Is it released yet?  If not, when will it be released?

I was going to install an app to my device from Google Play on my desktop, when I noticed a "No carrier Samsung GT-N7000" in my device list:    (the Nexus 7 is mine)  Apparently this device is the original Galaxy Note. I've never even seen one of these devices, and there shouldn't be one registered on my account. It doesn't show on Android Device Manager.  Is someone else on my Play Store account, downloading apps/media on my credit card? I use 2FA, so I'm worried about how that could have happened. Is there anything I can do to find out more about this device?

I'm in the market for a new Smartphone. Except for iPhone's, I'm new in the field and probably have some misconceptions.  My first choice was the Google Nexus S, but I was offered a great deal on the Samsung S Galaxy II (i9100). The only issue is that I read that it came with an "enhanced" version of Android. Being familiar with PC's, I know that these enhancements are almost always bloatware: I always do a clean install of Windows to get rid of it.  My question is fairly simple: is this possible to use the stock Google Android OS on the Samsung S Galaxy II (i9100)? That was the killer feature of the Nexus S for me: coming directly from Google, easily upgradable. Would that be possible and if yes, how?  Thank you for enlightening me.

In the  of the Android app, it says Android 4.1 or higher is required. However, the  argues that 1.6 is the required Android version. Why do these two pages argue with each other, and which one is lying?  Screen shot:

I upgraded my Nexus 4 to Lollipop a few days ago but I don't like it. I'll leave out my reasons because they're not relevant here. I wiped my phone and installed a clean stock 4.2.2 version instead. I'm happy with this.  Not long after, Android automatically downloaded the 4.3 upgrade and notifies me with the choices "Later" and "Install". I don't want to do this upgrade.  How do I:   get rid of the notification, and  remove the downloaded update (to free up precious storage space).     I have already tried choosing "Later" but the same notification immediately reappears.    Based on Google search results, I also tried going to Settings &gt; Apps &gt; All &gt; Google Services Framework and unticked "show notifications" but it still appears. Force stop or disable also doesn't seem to help, so I've re-enabled the service including notifications. I didn't see any other apps in this list that sounded relevant - did I just not see it?

I have a Samsung Galaxy S3 and have it updated to 4.1.2 from ICS. If I restore my phone to factory settings (either by going to settings or by rooting), will I lose my updates? If so, is there any other way to restore without having the above setbacks?

Today I updated to version 2.18.52 &amp; I can’t see the names of the people who send me a message. The only thing I see is the WhatsApp logo and the word “message”.    I can’t also see the status my friends posts, they all look black. I uninstalled the app, reset my phone &amp; nothing seems to work so far.

Phone worked perfectly. Then one day completely dead, nothing at all. It may have been that "one day" was after some time of laying around, cannot recall.  Model: Android AT&amp;T Samsung Galaxy S3 (SGH-i747 SKU S9255)  Already tried;   Charging phone: no visual output at all, no leds Removing battery while charging: no visual output at all, no leds Removing SIM and SD card: no visual output at all, no leds Attempt to turn on: no visual output at all, no leds   I need to get our family photo's off this phone (stored on internal memory). I care less about the hardware/phone itself.  Thank you for any help you can offer!
