Samsung Galaxy Note 4 Lollipop 5.0.1 Update delayed due to Gear VR Compatibility issues

31 January, 2015 Samsung Updates

Note 4 Lollipop

 

We already saw the Hands-on video of the Galaxy Note Edge and Galaxy Note 4 Lollipop 5.0.1 updateHowever, Samsung didn't release the update yet on any region, even the old Galaxy Note 3 got its official Lollipop update in some regions...

 

Where's the Galaxy Note 4 Lollipop Update ?

 

Well, it turns out that Samsung delayed the Galaxy Note 4 Lollipop 5.0.1 update due to compatibility issues with Samsung Gear VR. Samsung needs to make sure that the Gear VR will work well on the Note 4 Lollipop ROM, so far the Galaxy Note 4 ROM is still in the hands of Oculus VR who are tweaking the kernel to ensure its compatibility with the Samsung Gear VR.

 

Samsung Gear VR is Samsung's current take on virtual reality headset based on the popular Oculus Rift. While compatibility issues might explain the delay the question still stands why this can't be achieved in a later update. It looks like Gear VR is very important to Samsung that it delayed the full Lollipop roll-out for it.
