Lolipop on Tegra Note 7
- Thread starter chp2
- Start date
Exactly. Nvidia are more concerned with United Nations happy happy style news reports on Google+ rather than being a hardware company with good software support. Possibly a sign of a falling company or other bad management.
I even contacted the Dev team over at nvidia never once got a response back from them. So do not count on getting Lollipop anytime soon. As rightfully pointed out not only is the source code a huge mess even the github for nvidia trash. Hence why i am not getting another nVidia product that runs android full stop.
Nvidia please specify some date or give some hint or anything but dont make fake promises where is our lollipop update uh only promised but no sign of it !
@AkashRouth i can answer that without working for Nvidia. Sorry the device is EOL already! its not going to get lollipop.
I swear, if they pull that ****, I'm gonna riot. I'm dying for a Shield Console, but if this is how they're gonna treat their devices then screw them. Lollipop released just barely one year from this tablet's release... not updating it would be dastardly.
Im quite pissed off at how quick they release their chips I mean, I got this tablet early 2014 and a couple of months later tegra k1 was out and now the x1 is out within a year or two. They gave very minimal support to our devices and chips I mean common, that dabbler 2 thing, I bet our tegra 4's could handle that piss easy if NVIDIA actually put some effort in porting it over or something.
I already replaced my tn7 with a 4glte galaxy tab4 but will see if evga comes clean.. hell if codemasters took this long to remove gfwl from dirt3 to conv it to steamworks, I may have faith again
Lollipop Updates...
Looks like its only official for Shield Tablet, and Shield Portable will be getting Lollipop updates....TN7 isnt even mention

what do you mean it isn't even mentioned? btw the shield portable doesn't have the lollipop update either.
A guy from at the Nvidia support forums has said that the Shield Portable will receive Lollipop in the next couple of weeks: https://forums.geforce.com/default/...-101-released-02-11-15-/post/4506083/#4506083
Considering that TN7 shares pretty much the same hardware with the Shield Portable, it seems likely that Nvidia would release Lollipop for the TN7 as well.

Looks like we have some sort of confirmation... if only they would post this in their TN7 section!

This lollipop update is starting to sound a lot like vaporware. Something that they keep saying is coming but either never shows up or shows up horribly implemented. There is a chance that if its released only for the Shield Portable that somebody could port it to the TN7. Or I'll just dream about a CM12 port.
Well we are still waiting, but Lollipop still has its fair share of bugs to work out.
In other news, my Tegra Note said it had a Tegra OTA update, then when I checked it said I was up to date. :/
Phantom Update FTL.

well, we just have to be more patient. i still have a little bit of faith in nvidia to release the lollipop update in the future.
Any notion of that it will actually run better on Android L, rather than on 4.4 or 4.3?
