Download Android 4.4.4 kitkat for Nexus 5, Nexus 4, Nexus 7, and Nexus 10. Google has released Android 4.4.4 kitkat firmware for Nexus devices just a few days after the release of Android 4.4.3.

Right after the S8’s unboxing, the Korean major Samsung is now rolling out the official Android 7.0 Nougat update to its S-line Tab- The Galaxy Tab S2. The Tab S2 is a premium tablet from Samsung that was released in Q3 of 2105 with two different variants, namely- 8.0 LTE and 9.7 WiFi. Meanwhile, the firmware update is being pushed only for the regions of Italy and Germany. So we predict a broader rollout soon for the other regions like Russia, Egypt, France, UK, Spain etc.
The update comes as an OTA(Over-The-Air) as well as a full Odin flashable stock firmware. Download the update package from below. Upgrading the firmware will take the SM-T715 variant to its PDA T715XXU2CQCL and CSC T715OXA2CQCL respectively. Similarly, the SM-T810 variant will be updated to the PDA T810XXU2DQCL and CSC T810DBT2DQCL in particular.
AT&T’s Samsung Galaxy S2 Skyrocket last official update was 4.1.2. Still now near a year its same, where Lollipop 5.0 has announced. If Samsung Galaxy S2 Skyrocket will not have kitkat or Lollipop that is ok. But at least Samsung n. AT&T should give their valuable customer Jelly Bean 4.3 soon in the AT&T’s Samsung Galaxy S2 Skyrocket. Yes, you heard it right! Samsung has finally started rolling out Android 4.3 update to the LTE variant of the Samsung Galaxy S III (GT-I9305). Folks with the LTE equipped Galaxy S III have been waiting for this update since a long time now as the device is actually still running Android 4.1.2 because Samsung decided to skip the Android 4.2.2 update.
In a nutshell, the update not only brings Nougat but also brings the latest April 1, 2017, security patch level from the AOSP. Updating the firmware will give you bonus features like- the Game Launcher, improved performance, a newer user interface, multi-window etc. The full changelog is given below.

An official Ice Cream Sandwich update from Samsung has finally landed for Galaxy S2 users in the Poland through Samsung KIES. Some features appear to be missing from earlier leaks, such as no 3D animation effect in drawer and while swiping home screens.
Apart from that, firmware XXLPQ brings some improvements as well, with no touch lags and packed with TouchWiz 4 UI. If for some reason Ice Cream Sandwich has not yet arrived on your device and you don’t want to miss out on the fun, we’ll be showing you how you, too, can enjoy XXLPQ, the official Ice Cream Sandwich release, on your Galaxy S2.
We’ll be installing this firmware through Odin3. If you’re an Android novice, you have no reason to fear. The upgrade process is easy as long as you follow our guide below.
This update is only for the Galaxy S2, with the model number GT-I9100, and is not compatible with other devices. You may check your device’s model number through “Settings > About Phone.” If your phone does not match the model number, we highly discourage attempting to install this firmware update as it may lead to bricking.
Caution
Though this leaked firmware is originally intended for Poland, some users of the Samsung Galaxy S2 GT-I9100 have reported that this firmware work on Polish, Hungarian, Swedish, German, Pakistani, Korean, and European handsets, too.
But, still, you are advised to proceed with the update at your own risk. Any damage you cause to your phone or to yourself will be your sole responsibility.
Requirements
Take note of the following and comply with the requirements before updating:
- Flashing this firmware update will wipe your data. Make sure to create a backup of any important data on your Galaxy S2.
- Make sure to charge your Galaxy S2’s battery (at least 70%, full charge recommended). This prevents your Galaxy S2 from shutting off in the middle of the update process.
- If you’ve got Samsung KIES installed on your computer, uninstall it as it may interrupt the update process.
- A Windows PC
- Download Odin3 v1.83 to your computer.
- Make sure that you’ve got the device drivers for your phone installed on your Windows computer. 32 bit (x86) Windows | 63 bit (x64) Windows.
- XXLPQ firmware — Download from here or here.
Update Instructions
These are the steps for applying the firmware update manually:

- Extract the “I9100XXLPQ_I9100OXALPQ_I9100XXLPQ_HOME.tar.md5” file using 7-Zip or WinRAR.
- Turn off your Galaxy S2. Wait for the phone to vibrate, signalling that it is completely powered down.

- Check both the Auto Reboot and F. Reset Time checkboxes in the Option section. Leave everything else as is.
- Hit START to begin installing the XXLPQ firmware.
- Once the installation has completed, you should see the upper-left square in the Odin window light up in green with a “PASS!” message.
- If Odin gets stuck in the middle of the installation process, you’ll need to do the following:
- Disconnect the Galaxy S2 from the computer.
- Close Odin.
- Remove the Galaxy S2’s battery.
- Re-insert it.
- Boot phone back into Download mode.
- Resume the procedure from step 6.
- Your phone should now reboot.
- After the firmware has installed and the phone reboots, some users have reported getting stuck at the S logo. If this happens, do the following:
- Boot to recovery mode. Power off the phone. Wait for a few seconds and then press the Home, Volume Up, and Power buttons together.
- Select “Wipe Data/Factory Reset.”
- Select “Wipe Cache.”
- Select “Reboot System Now.”
Congratulations! Your Samsung Galaxy S2 is now running on Ice Cream Sandwich with XXLPQ firmware.
