The Samsung Galaxy Note 4 and the Galaxy Note Edge are reportedly ditching Google's Android 5.0 Lollipop update but will get the upgraded Android 5.0.1 Lollipop directly instead.

The report came a few days after French carrier SFR(via Tech Times) claimed that Android 5.0 Lollipop update would be rolled out to the Samsung Galaxy S5 in December before coming to the Galaxy Note 4 in January.

Samsung is working on Android 5.0.1 Lollipop update for its popular devices - the Galaxy Note 4 and the Galaxy Note Edge, according to SamMobile. It went on to claim that Android 5.0 Lollipop update would be scrapped completely and the arrival of the upgraded version of the software could be drawing near.

Meanwhile, the Galaxy S4 Google Play Edition (GPE) has got Android 5.0 Lollipop update but yet to receive Android 5.0.1 Lollipop. The new software's OTA update has already been rolled out to the G900F variant of Galaxy S5 in Poland and the device with build number G900KKTU1BNL2 in Korea has got it. Android Geeks reported that the software would be pushed out to three South Korean carriers - KT, SK Telecom and LG Uplus.

Several devices like Nexus 4, nexus 5, HTC One (M7), HTC One (M8), Moto X, Moto G, Moto E, and other Google Play edition devices have received the Android 5.0 Lollipop Update but some Samsung flagship devices are yet to receive it.
