JVT (2.3.5 via KIES) What is new

What is new/different in this build? The only things I have noticed is the perpetual scrolling and blue end of page buffers. There must be more than that surely?

R u getting jvt via kies?

The only other thing I've noticed is social media integration with contacts. Details from Facebook, Twitter, Linked, Skype etc no longer show as unknown but are correctly identified.

Well, dint expected for quick official release of 2.3.5. Anyway, many of us had this long time ago.

still wifi dhcp bug is present???
currently i am on 2.3.4 JVR stock with semaphore 1.6, I don't want to take the risk as I only use wifi as my internet source

What about Phone FC in the leaked JVT, The official JVT it is said to be identical with the leaked JVT???

Wrong thread

I don't have any wifi dhcp bug but then I never had it before.

Can it be confirmed that the version released by KIES is the same as the leaked JVT?

I have seen some changes in the official release from the leaked...for example the overscroll in tw3 launcher and in the menu...at least i think so...

blue overscroll glow

It seems to be the same. Though I can't speak for specifics.

Just updated and now cannot conenct to mass storage.
On Kies connects at times. Uninstalled and reinstalled drivers. No use!
Have noticed that if you connect USB to charge the phone while it's OFF the phone will switch ON. Useless Idea.

Can someone please post the official Kies ROM? I want to get back on the official upgrade paths, as I'm passing my phone on.
I'm currently on JVS with XEU installed, but I can't see this update

I have JVT from the leak. Kies says its the current version. So that should be fine!

Weird, i just flash to JVT from the file RAMAD posted. When connected to kies it mentions this version of firmware cannot be updated.

UK Note from Clove Just Updated to 2.3.6

I have just received an OTA update to 2.3.6. I have been connecting my Note to my laptop using Kies for the last few days to see if it was available that way but there was no mention of an update. So I was pleased when I did an update check using Settings on my phone and discovered one was available OTA. It is good getting OTA updates just like on the Nexus One so there is no risk of installing the wrong firmware or making a mistake using Kies.
So what difference does the update make?

received my note yesterday and had OTA 2.3.6 XXKKA also 15 megs size.
also interested to know the differences

i bought from carphonewarehouse and got OTA 2.3.6 this morning too.
ps. its stock phone with no root.

So this removes root and CWM?
Edit: apparently root and apps are not touched on this update according to the other thread about this.
Just downloaded and install failed, it said to try using kies...

Have the same. It failed to update, said to try by kies. I also have rooted stock ROM.
Maybe we should unroot ?

That may be the case, so I'll probably do this later today since it's almost 3am. I don't want to set everything up tonight.
Or we can just wait for a custom ROM that will have the update.
Edit: I don't understand though why people who are rooted in the other thread got it to work.

Thanks for the thread! I've nicely updated my phone

Also got 2.3.6 OTA today. Phone is from the Polish Plus+ telco. Seems much snappier all around. Will be interesting to see if battery life improves too. Also the stylus seems more accurate but it's hard to say...
Bring on ICS!

mine fails the wifi update. tried 3 times. my phone is rooted.
fire up kies and says that kj4 is the latest

perhaps its to do with the method you used for rooting.
iirc, there are a couple of different root methods, some of them seem to affect the tamper counter (cant think of what its really called). maybe the update is only available for those who still have the counter at 0?
dont quote me on this though, im still a nubblet on the tweaking side of android.

It seems rooting has nothing to do with it. I've rooted by the CF-Root method 2.
Maybe any other changes make the problem (theme mods ?)

No I had to revert back to the stock theme since the dialer had problems. Worst case scenerio I may have to wait for a custom ROM, maybe ill try updating through kies later.

I rooted my note with Chainfire's tutorial using the zergrush method and installed the new KKA kernel.
My phone downloaded this new update but failed to flash it on reboot. I think I'll just wait and see if Chainfire releases his own version or there is a rom with it built in.

New KL3 Build quite an Improvement!

Or is it me?!
Very fast intraOS movement. Browser also seems plain faster.
System and call sound better also.

I've got the Sheep ROM.
How would I go about getting and installing this? I can't do OTA upgrades because they don't come because I have a Custom ROM.
I can't do Kies, because it says it can't do SW updates.
Are you using a Custom ROM?

I wiped all (which you must do if coming from an odex'd rom) and installed Cassies V4 Rom with the new build and modem....then Abyssnote kernel?
Even without kernel...you can tell right off the build is a big stepup.

Don't think I answered your?
There's a thread in Dev section that has the link to the files
http://www.multiupload.com/8P1M2BGMXY
You can put on your phone and flash from recovery.

This soft is an improvement. It's far from satisfactory( android is still choppy as hell comparing to other OSes) but it's a step in the right direction.
I can report a better Wi-Fi range - I'm getting signal in some places in my house where I couldn't before.

No choppiness here...thing flies.

Does stock browser power saving levels works (any change in screen brightness)?
For me it worked well in KKA but not in KL3 .
Please test this for me.
Thank you.

ADW is still a bit sluggish, I'm using Cassie's KL3

If you change the cache to low quality it won't lag at all.

KLx series has problem with STK. I always get FC with my STK film. But I do not have any problem with KK1.

Confirmed. KL3 feels a bit faster.

This update has made a massive difference for me. I'm using ADW and widgetlocker and the phone now feels properly connected to my inputs on the screen, lag is pretty much gone. Much happier with the feel of the phone now.
I flashed through CWM and installed CFroot kernel for KL3 at the same time.

This things screams compared to KKA. I lost pinch to zoom in my Gmail Client. Anybody have any ideas about that?

Is this an update that we will get OTA? And what region are you guys in?

Hi LordManhattan,
When I tried OTA, it says that my software is up to date. But when I connected my Note with Kies, it told me that there is a KL3 update. (From the Philippines but currently located in India).
For the record, I havent updated the software yet. Will do so by the weekend.

Updating via Kies
Question:
How do you update GNote via Kies? Is it through Kies Air? If it is through Kies Air, how? I do not see any Check Update button.
Or do I need to connect my Note to my computer via USB?
Thanks!

Ensure USB debugger is off, connect phone via USB. Launch kies. Wait for pop up. Check if you have the latest Kies if needed.

Damnit. Running Ubuntu, so no Kies for me. Anything else i can do?

i cannot see the KL3 update over OTA , neither with Kies for windows , i bought my galaxy note in switzerland , KKA firmware.
anyone else in europe got the KL3 update ?

no kl3 italy
same problem here no OTA and no kies.. been checking constantly.. lool...
i think its only india that have the update...
so i guess if we want it we just have to flash.....a rom from here

KL7 Fixes everything lag related - You should flash KL7

Seriously every Note user should flash Stock or a custom rom based on this KL7
Can get stock here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1413120
I like many others had many issues with Lag and now my note litterally flies...!
And I haven't even put AbyssNote on it yet!!!!!
Also this KL7 fixes a bluetooth keyboard Issue I had with every previous rom. I had to mix and mash bluetooth drivers from my gtab and a sgs2 to get my bluetooth keyboard working but all resolved with KL7!!!
Am quite chuffed!

I never flashed a rom manually, how do I update my KKA firmware to this? Safest and least tampering way.

I just flash kl7...avesome..smooth like hell..fast..some minore changes but much faster then kl3.

Agreed, KL7 is amazing.
No more lag anywhere, it's so fluid in everything it does now.
Even in the settings menu where it would be kinda jerky when scrolling in KL3, it's butter smooth now for example in KL7.

What's different about it to Kka, I'm on that and its smooth as already and it's android 2.3.6, isn't kl7 jut a regional version of kka?

kl7 is the latest firmware version

Basically use Odin 1.85 or mobile Odin to update.
Then apply CWM and root using the script in the CFRoot link that is also linked in the KL7 Thread.
Check the KL7 Thread for more information.

Only thing that still lags for me is phone.

What is 2.3.6 KL7? official rom? need root to do this? Couldn't we wait for 2.3.6 update from Samsung itself?

It is a German official Samsung version can be found OTA (Over The Air) or via kies if your phone has/is flashed with a DBT code of CSC.
If you flash this after that you will wait for German updates only because region code will be DBT (debitel Germany) unlocked note for Germany.

Change CSC then do OTA

The last 2 updates were first rolled out for phones with the DBT CSC.
The latest KL7 firmware is available for phones with the German Debitel CSC.
To avail yourself of the update without using Kies, you can do an OTA(over the air) update.
Since the update is currently only available for phones set to the DBT CSC, if you change your phones CSC using this method here, you will then be able to update OTA by going to Settings > About Phone > Software update > Update. (Not all Note phones can have their CSC changed with this method)
Changing the CSC will reset your phone to factory settings.

It's getting very difficult to keep waiting for this to be rolled out! I have KJ4 and have been waiting for what seems forever. Why doesn't Samsung just do this for all devices at once?

I am currently using a hongkong offical rom.
It always lag for 2 seconds when I click the power button to activate the phone from standby mode. Does kl7 fix this issue？
Thanks!

I like everything, but Browser is mistakable zoom in.
But rom is HOT

Bell unlocked GT-I9000M (Galaxy S) hung on startup screen

Dummy me, I was trying to root the KG3 (2.3.3) firmware and made a mistake and messed up my phone. Now it just hangs on the startup animation. I can still get into download mode, so my question is, how do I get it back up and running.
Directions with Odin (I presume) and a stock Bell KG3 firmware????
Any help would be appreciated.

Found that just a few minutes ago, thanks. Phone is now up and running, albeit, I'm gonna need to remove some apps as they're FC'ing. Luckily I have a backup (not that recent, but it'll do) of my contacts.
Since I'm here, I wonder if I shouldn't just throw the latest and greatest on it. Hints???

You know your phone is pretty much an I9000 with an m on the end. If you want to use the latest JVU then go for it. It's as simple as using only the jvu pda file and using the 2.3.3 ugkg3 phone and csc files... Flash same way in odin. Then flash chainfire to get root.

I have the same phone. The build date was july 2011 as the screen on my first one (build date july 10) cracked completely.
With both phones, i've been doing custom roms on it since i received it back from bell in january 2011 (due to the froyo upgrade issue).
I would definitely suggest Team icssgs (Ice Cream Sandwich 4.03). Been running it now for 5 days and really really enjoying the phone more. But that's me .. i was using DarkyROM JVU previously and had freezes when i tried to use the video camera, and trying to view my contacts.
Good luck in your decision...
