One handed Note Update, Improved Features!

Today it appears a huge update is rolling out bringing all sorts of improvements, changes and tweaks.
Following the update, users will enjoy the possibility to shrink the keyboard and dial-pad for one hand use, a dedicated torch widget for the homescreen, as well as a virtual keyboard spread on five rows now.
Samsung has also added some new brightness setting so you don’t have to adjust the brightness on the whole device and you can now select different brightness settings for certain apps like the browser and other apps.
The update will also offer users the possibility to unlock the device through moving their thumb only a bit, while benefitting from more information being displayed on the unlocking screen.
The update is being pushed out over the air and should arrive on unlocked devices first (in Europe/Asia)

What is the Source?

androidcommunity.com

Dont know much about the update, only what i have read. Sounds interesting thou. Hope its not a softening for an ICS delay.

Agree this is very old news and posted already on a few threads over the last two days.see LA4 thread and another thread where website link is given. On LA4 thread I posted the link but credit goes to some one else who started another thread about an ota update but mine was got over kies. There are loads more changes mentioned with photos.see link mentioned in my post on theLA4 thread for more details.

Is this Available in India now?

The update should be available now for unlocked Notes and can be downloaded over-the-air. Those who have network-branded devices may have to wait until your service provider gets round to releasing the patch.

This is for csc DBT (Germany) over the air. It is LA4 and has been out for over a week as reported by zkyevolved and dr ketan.
Dr. ketan has a great thread under the development section which lists all the updated firmwares.

that update was released 27.12.2011.. - you guys are one month to late..

UK update

Has anyone in the UK got the recent update,everytime I check there is no update
Sent from the Beast that is the HTC One X in white......
Got enough posts and threads on this SO I am closing this one as it looks like this is old news now
THREAD CLOSED

Asus' Italian branch office posted two days ago on their facebook stream that the update for WW SKUs is held up pending approval by Google.
Take that with a grain of salt about the size of the Empire State Building, however, since at first they blamed excessive load on their servers, then they shifted the blame on Google

That and the fact that it doesn't seem to fix anything, maybe they have pulled it.

I think SEEM in the operative word, as it clearly fixes lots of things, but perhaps not what you want it to fix...

I wouldn't know and neither would you since your in the UK as well so don't have it yet either. But since you put it so nicely I am only going by the posts on here but hey I don't know anything and you obviously do so I bow to your superior knowledge.

I think I read you can't do the OTA if you have CWM installed, and you have to install the stock recovery.
Did you try this?

JB has landed for UK

I am downloading JB for UK now ota.

This is surely the real deal now. Also out for Southeast Asia and India. Please post a screenshot of About screen on settings and the version by dialing *#1234#, I'll tweet it to SamMobile so they can pull the full firmware packages.

nice one, downloading now

Ouch - 480MB download!Glad I am in the office early while network is quiet.

Is it 4.1.1 or 4.1.2?

Thank you for actually writing the country name. Otherwise, there's too many duplicate "JB is out now!!!" threads and I get really sad when I find out it's not here for the U.S. yet....

Identical to the dbt build from what I can see, pity was hoping they'd pull in the 412 patches from the 8000.

Plug into Kies, It recognises the Update straight away and downloads!

Good it's finally out, though a shame we don't have 4.1.2 yet.
I guess there's no reason really to switch back from my german variant of the same build just yet.
I'm liking 4.1.1 JB in general though do not like the changes to s-note in terms of no auto-hide toolbar, and keep accidentally finger zooming when using the stylus. Think I may just move to lecture notes. I do like the auto sync with samsung account for s-note though.

yes its out but the sad part is its 4.1.1 also since the UK and Nordic version are mostly same this should be the same update most of europe would get

Why do people think that the UK version would be any different from anything else???

4.2.2 Out for International Version(Download Added)

It's 2.24.709.1..
465MB update delivers Android 4.2.2 and brings the death of the dreaded black bar
A user with an international model HTC One in Taiwan just sent in some good news -- the 4.2.2 OTA has arrived for his phone. Nothing in the way of a change log is available from HTC just yet, but the update screen tells us a little bit. Besides the new API level that comes with 4.2.2, HTC has included:
Launcher bar enhancement
Widget panel rearrangement
New lock screen style and widget
Enhanced behavior of the home button
The death of the black bar
Battery percentage in the status bar
Quick settings
AE/AF enhancements in the camera

Some Bad News on the Kitkat Update

Hi All...I don't want to be the bearer of bad news but...
According to a Sony Representative, he said that our phone [ Xperia SP ] won't be receiving the much awaited "KitKat" Update
you can check it out for yourself right here

}
Note: That translates to "I got confirmation from Sony that the Xperia SP won't be receiving the Kitkat update"
This is one of the reasons why I am getting the Z1c I mean Sony always forgets the Non-Flagship phones
I mean look the Galaxy Nexus has a KitKat Update!!! and ours doesn't?

already posted

Already posted and you have to believe that we can't trust these man. I remember one of them said that we will have Xperia Windows Phone almost year ago and till now, SONY still don't use Windows Phone OS.

so what the fu..ss?

Direct quote from the article listed in OP
"Once such thread from 18 February 2014 was asking about the availability of the Android 4.4 KitKat"
That was weeks ago. It's still listed under investigation, so honestly, I wouldn't put too much weight on this post. That was almost 2 months ago and no official word. Yes, that person later said that he/she got "confirmation", but from who? If it were true, the websites would be updated.
We'd all be best to stop speculation and rumors to wait until Sony's press officially says something through their proper channels, not an AMA on some random site.

Yeah it was written on april 1st lol

I don't mind if we don't get Kitkat, but i wish they at least fix install lag in 4.3.
