Android 5.0 Lollipop update on Samsung Galaxy Note 3 release date now available
Android 5.0 Lollipop, the latest version of Google's mobile operating system, has begun arriving to some Samsung Galaxy Note 3 units in the United States, although some wireless service providers have yet to announce when the update will be coming.
Earlier this month, major US carrier T-Mobile rolled out the Android 5.0 Lollipop update for all its subscribers using the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 phablet, according to TechTimes.com.
Android Lollipop's arrival to T-Mobile subscribers was confirmed by Samsung on its software upgrade page for the smartphones.
Another major telecommunications firm, Sprint, may also soon roll out the Android 5.0 update for its subscribers in the US using the Samsung Galaxy Note 3, based on an internal document it unintentionally posted on its website.
Other big service provides such as AT&T and Verizon have yet to give word on when the Android 5.0 Lollipop update will arrive.
While major wireless service providers in the US have not yet rolled out the Android 5.0 Lollipop update, the latest Google mobile operating system is already available in the United Kingdom, Hungary, Czech Republic, Romania, Switzerland, Austria and Romania.
Google unveiled Android 5.0 Lollipop in June last year. In the latest version of the software, users can access notifications, which are now displayed within applications as top-of-the-screen banners, even when the screen is locked.
The newest version of the Android mobile operating system was also redesigned using a language called "material design."

A Business Insider report said the Android 5.0 Lollipop update requires a lot of time before it can be launched on a broad scale, and takes months before it can reach smartphones because each phone manufacturer needs to modify the software.
