After reports about the Samsung Galaxy Note 4 starting to receive the Android 5.0 Lollipop update in some regions, users around the world have started reporting about the update being rolled out to the Galaxy Note 3 LTE via Samsung Kies, though Samsung hasn't yet announced it officially.

According to Sammobile, the Android 5.0 Lollipop update for the Qualcomm Snapdragon variant of the Samsung Galaxy Note 3, with model number SM-N9005, is rolling out to users on major carriers in Austria, Germany, Hungary, Poland, Switzerland, the UK. The publication has also made the firmware available up for download.

On the other hand, Samsung Poland on Thursday confirmed an Android 5.0 Lollipop update is being planned for Galaxy Note II as well.

The company on its Twitter account replied to a user saying that the Galaxy Note II will receive the update, but there is no further information.

On Wednesday, Samsung Galaxy Note 4 first started receiving Android 5.0 Lollipop update in Poland, and on Thursday in South Korea, reported SamMobile.

The South Korea update is said to be based on Android 5.0.1 Lollipop, carry build number N910SKSU1BOB4, and be currently rolling out for Galaxy Note 4 users on SK Telecom. The Android 5.0 update can be grabbed via Samsung Kies software.
