The Galaxy S3 will miss out on Lollipop.

Samsung today delivered the news all Galaxy Note II and Galaxy S3 owners have been dreading: the South Korean company will not be updating these devices to Android 5.0 Lollipop. That means both handsets will remain on KitKat without the help of unofficial, third-party ROMs.

It seems unlikely that the Galaxy S III will get an official Lollipop update from Samsung, and even if it does, you’re going to be waiting a long time for it. But if you don’t mind flashing custom ROMs, then Android 5.0 is already available for the 3-year-old device.

At long last U.S. Cellular pushes out the rather hefty, much-anticipated Android 4.4.2 over-the-air (OTA) update to all Samsung Galaxy S3 handsets located in the United States. The upgrade brings the latest build of KitKat to the handset, complete with a multitude of additional bug fixes and speed optimizations.

A leaked internal document has surfaced on the internet disclosing that Samsung is in the process of internally testing the new, unannounced Android 4.4.3 update on both the Snapdragon and Exynos-powered variants of the Galaxy S5, together with the LTE-A edition of the Galaxy S4.
