We've learned from experience that when Samsung drops some Note 3 kernel source, the update is only a few days away. This time the Note 3 on T-Mobile is in Samsung's sights as the KitKat code has just been uploaded to Samsung's open source page.

The file weighs in at a healthy 863MB, but most of you reading this won't have any reason to download it. This ZIP archive is mainly of interest to developers who want to improve apps or develop ROMs for the Note 3.

As for the actual update, we might be in for an announcement on Monday. When Samsung posted the Sprint Note 3 KitKat code, we saw an update two days later. Keep your eyes on that status bar...
