This is the feedback that I can share with you about my recent update to version 4.3 S4 I9500 Argentina (OTA).
I was on 4.2.2, and the new Baseband Version becomes I9500UBUEMK1
OTA update process:
1) The update is a package of 651 Mb
2) After you download it, installed without problems. Reboot.
3) After you have installed the update 2) ... another "update package" about 15 Mb comes in, which is installed automatically. Reboot.
4) After the update 3) another "update package" of 13.19 Mb comes in, which is installed. Reboot.
5) And finally ... no more update packages are available, and the process is finished.
I have tested the phone and at the beginning was working fine: wifi, bluetooth, Youtube, and several other applications.
I found no benefit in the new version: activated the new "reading mode" but found no appreciable change. Speed: no appreciable change. Battery life: idem.
UPDATE AFTER A WEEK OF USE:
After using it for several days, I found that the problem of the message "Your wifi Connection Has Become Unstable", which is very annoying, appears very often, and wifi disconnects momentarily. Apparently there is no solution to this problem, as I could read in several posts.
In short, finding no benefit, my suggestion is: * DO NOT INSTALL V4.3 *
Is there any solution to the wifi unstable problem ?
Thank you.

I recently had a Note 2 with 4.3 with the same issue. Now I have an S4 with 4.2.2.
If I am not wrong, when you are in the wifi routers list (to conect to one) you must use the menu key and a menu will desplay. Hit Advanced. A new menu will appear and there you will see in the middle of the screen, an option that says verify the internet service (explained below says alternate automatically between wifi and mobile,) unclic that option.
note: every word detailed by me is not exact because i have the firm in spanish, so i just translated it the best i could. Let me know how it went
I have an unlocked S4 in argentina and OTA updates say that there is no 4.3 version available.

How were you able to make an OTA update? I have an unlocked S4 in Argentina, and it says it is not available.

Hello, and thank you for your writing.
I have that option unchecked, but still I receive the "internet connection unstable" message.
And regarding the OTA in Argentina, I got it about a week ago. My previous Baseband Version was I9500UBUBMG9, on Android 4.2.2., I9500 unlocked.
Perhaps yours is branded (attached to a celco company) so you will have to wait until that brand publishes 4.3 upgrade. However, my recommendation is to not upgrade.
Best regards,
Pablo.

Many thanks for the data.
I have read in another forum that mk8 has many improvements over mk1 (argentina version) they always were using the russian version ok mk8. Maybe this will help. The main improvements were, not heating too much and battery life.
I just repeat what they said, i personally have not tried it.
Best regards.

If you did get it where are you and which gen?
Gave up waiting so downloaded and installed the OTA that is posted here - install went perfectly and everything works.
Nothing yet. Keep getting wifi network failure error as noted on the acertabletforum.com forum. Hoping acer will fix this. I'd like to see the tablet work as intended. If I have to force the updates again like I did for 3.2 ill be pissed .

Yeah, it's tempting but I'll wait for a while. So far 21 views for this thread and no one's said "I got the OTA." It looks like it's not rolling out here yet.
Nada for Alberta...
I've been hitting "System update" every hour on the hour since midday Thursday. Nothing where I am in Alberta. I've seen some conflicting messaging on when Canada will be getting the OTA. The Acer site says 04-27, I've seen elsewhere 05-03.
I'm itching to get on with it. Downloading the posted update.zip on XDA now. Still haven't decided if I am going to use it.
And to keep the focus on the OP, if anyone has received the OTA please share the GEN. I'm assuming it's the same one posted, but ya never know.
Got it on wifes tab yesterday here in BC. GEN_1
Had to get update to Iconia Tab Update tool to see the upgrade.

Same here in Nova Scotia.
Things have changed
I have recently hit the update tab and I am no longer getting the wifi message... now back to "your up to date" ... with no ICS ... I think it will be here soon... or maybe I am just an optomist
This is very odd since I am in Halifax and got my OTA on the 27th. I had stock 3.2.1 rooted (had to remove root or the install failed).
Before build: Acer_A500_7.014.02_COM_GEN2
After build: Acer_AV041_A500_1.0333.00_PA_CUS1
When you eventually get the upgrade, you get an offer to "install now" or "install later". Choose the "install later" option or when your root causes the install to fail you will have to re-download the 400mb file again.
BTW, this combination listed above has none of the bugs or issues listed in other OTA release upgrade threads.

http://www.engadget.com/2012/04/29/acer-releases-ics-update-app/
My current build: Acer_A500_7.014.14_COM_GEN1
I am wondering if because your's was 02_COM_GEN_2 that is why you got the update and I haven't? I am also in Nova Scotia.

Well, this evening I pulled the trigger on Update.zip with my stock unrooted rom. It went flawlessly and al my dozens of apps seem to be functional. It's much more zippy and responsive than HC. I'm impressed.
There using 1 server to distribute. So expect throttling for a bit. The US ones are still going strong, know several who are getting the updates fine.
Best they do this to avoid corrupted data in updates. Otherwise more peopel need to distribute the offcial regional builds.
DOn't want a HTC repeat of an issue where phones ended up bricked.
5 days of waiting. . . . . .
I also have a GEN1 A500 from Canada, specifically build Acer_A500_7.014.14_COM_GEN1 and I got impatient waiting for the OTA update so I installed the Acer_A500_7.014.14_041.203.01_COM_GEN1 update from the bottom of the first post on this page. I had no problems at all completeling the update and everything seems to be working fine with ICS.
The Op is actually linking straight to Acer's official update server with the ICS links in that post. Remember that if you choose to download these official ROM's you'll need to decrypt the downloaded zip file with the tool mentioned at the top of the first post and follow the rest of the instructions in the How to use full/update package in that first post as well.
If you stick it out and wait for the OTA I am curious as to what build you finally end up with. My build after the update above is Acer_AV041_A500_1.031.00_WW_GEN1
Still nothing here in Toronto wow!!! Acer Fail!!!!

Me: Ok great, thank you very much!
Acer: We are unable to provide you the estimated time.
Acer: You are welcome.

Soon, still no OTA in Toronto.... tried checking for update using my New York vpn with no update again.
I love my A500, I don't know why Acer has to make it so difficult for their customers.......
Hi,
When I started my phone for first time, it took me to a screen where I have updated the preferred time for getting firmware updates OTA and some other settings for OTA. or it might be called as "Software update setting" In my view it happens only the first time you start the device, where it will ask you your desired time for software update..
It happens only for first time, so wanted to ask the seniors, how can I access that setting again in Samsung Galaxy S4 (I9500)
Please advise...
I tried searching for that setting but i am not able to find it.
Please help..

Anoop

Go to settings - more - about us - software update
Thanks for your reply.
I know that settings i.e. More---About us---Software update, but when I manually click on it, it gives me below message..."The Software update service is not available. Maximum number of roll-out updates has been exceeded Try to update device later"
I am trying since 2 days but getting same message..
I remember that when I started the phone for first time, it took me to software update setting and asked me about my preferred time of update etc... (1st booting of the device) so that setting I am asking.. if someone can help please...

I had that error on my i9505, the only way i rectified it was a factory data reset... works fine now.

'H+' vs 'H' Icon
Hi
Just flashed this ROM on my HK Note N5120 LTE (CSC Was TGY). The device came from Panamoz.com as I was struggling to buy the LTE version sim free in the UK for reasonable money, and Kies was not offering to upgrade the stock 4.1.2 firmware to 4.2.2.
Used this method: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=44241666&postcount=4
All worked fine, Answered 'No' when asked about making CWM recovery permanent. The CSC became BTU (UK) after the flash. CWM recovery was replaced with stock during the flash.
Since I am in the UK, I flashed the modem files that came with the ROM, and still get 4G. I have the same issue as everyone else regarding the S-Pen offset - probably not bad enough to flash back to 4.1.2 for me, but hopefully Samsung will fix.
My main issue is that compared to 4.1.2, I hardly ever see the device show 'H+', only 'H'. I travel the same route on the train daily, and now, I see 'H+' 10% of the time rather than 90% of the time. My other device on the same network still shows H+.
Maybe others have seen my 'H' vs 'H+' issue?
Does this device support DC-HSPA?? I recall that with the S3 and Note2, one gained DC-HSPA+42 (so called 3.75G theoretical max 42Mbps), when one bought the LTE version of the phone. The non LTE versions only had HSPA+21. Reason I am asking is I am wondering if the 'H+' now only shows for DC-HSPA rather than for HSPA+21 ??
Tempted to flash the old modem files again, see if my H+ returns to normal operation - and of course to see if its any faster.
My device is still rooted with the flash counter == 2, and It does still appear to be recognized by kies when connected to the PC. Time will tell whether I will get updates via Kies still. If not then maybe I will need to use Triangle to reset the flash counter, and then do a full unroot.

Just got mine from the same place. Your post has helped me with some questions I had. Thanks.:good:
No OTA For me
So, the next stage was to run Triangle away, which worked fine (counter reset to 'No'). Just be brave and accept the big red warning.
Following on from that, I unrooted using the unroot option in Super User app that was installed by chainfire's 'auto root'.
This worked too, and I confirmed root gone. After a reboot, I reconnected to Kies, to check that it recognized the firmware on the device as the 'latest'. It was.
I then tried the 'Software Update' option under Settings->about device, unfortunately, this no longer works it just says 'connecting to server' forever and eventually comes up with a message: 'your device has been modified, software updates are not available'. So No OTA for me.
Any idea how to get OTA working again??
Here is the screenshot from the downloading screen, showing 'official' for all the firmwares on the device. Could it have something to do with the CSC? (TGY on 4.1.2 and BTU on 4.2.2) ?
http://photos.veletron.com/index.php/album151/P1070688
If I goto Settings-->About Device-->Status, and wait an age while the 'Device Status' field updates, it reports 'custom'. I guess this is why, but how come given that the 'download' screen reports as per the above screen shot?!
Prior to running Triangle Away, and unrooting, the OTA check on the device, span for a while before reporting no new updates available.

I can not say anything about the OTAupdates since I never use Kies to update, but as for the modem, I am running the "old" 4.1.2 modem and it is working well for me, tho I have not compared my note now and before in regards to how ofteni see H+ or just H, most often I see the 4G icon where I usually hang out.
But I would try the 4.1.2 modem for your region and see if it changes anything.
Sent from Galaxy no. N5120 via the LTE-network
Got mine updated to 4.2.2 yesterday.
Not sure why but my battery life seemed to have taken a hit since upgrading.
On 4.1.2 i used to be able to last a day easily with about 30 - 40% left each day (7am till 9pm). after updating to 4.2.2 I am down to 30% in 5 hrs. Tab gets hotter too. Anyone experience the same issue?
I am back on 4.1.2 for now. Everything's good again.
thanks man for update.
Just for info
After the update to 4.2.2 Mh1 by flashing the firmware here, I never got OTA again (says device status custom). Stock rom and flash counter zero. I was however able to update to MH2 via kies. I am still told device status custom!
No difference for me re pen pointer offset on MH1/MH2 not sure Samsung will ever bother to fix this.
My device now BTU but it started as Hong Kong. I suspect this is why it reckons it's "custom".

I have the same device but not the same problem. I also updated to MH2 via Odin and my status is normal. The offset for me is much better than previous, and I have no problem with the battery lasting more than a day using WiFi and push mail along with the normal use. However although recognized by Kies it would not update, I recon because of the CSC.

On 4.1.2 i used to be able to last a day easily with about 30 - 40% left each day (7am till 9pm). after updating to 4.2.2 I am down to 30% in 5 hrs. Tab gets hotter too. Anyone experience the same issue?
I am back on 4.1.2 for now. Everything's good again.

Multi Window
Hey,
I've update my rom on my 5120 to the MH2 and still having problem with multi window greyed out in the setting>display
Has anybody else have this problem?
Is they any way to fix it?
I upgraded the rom using the odin version 1.85 had the tick in auto reboot and F. Rest time and I ticked PDA and put the md5 file on the pda line where I placed the tick is that all correct or should I've used a different version?
Please can anybody help me.
Thanks
Gigino
THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THAAAAAAAANK YOOOOOOOU! (if it didn't look and/or feel weird, I'd kiss you! *LOL* I wouldn't it was a joke)
BUT you saved my stupid self from self pity. You see, I didn't realize - until too late - that there were 3 versions of this device, and attempted to install a 5110 ROM. That caused me 5 DAYS of hell until I cam across this, and voila! I got my tablet back. So again - TANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!

Great post. I feel your joy
THere is a newer version. Does anyone know how we can go from JDQ39.N5120XXCMH2 to the new JDQ39.N5120XXCMI2 version?
My phone also says custom like Nigels problem above, I am having same problem that he was having when he first went to 4.2.2 from 4.2.1... I'm currently on 4.2.2 trying to go to the new CMI2.

force stop them, at every reboot
if you feel brave there is a tool to disable system apps without root, search for "Debloater", you have to know the exact name of the application you want to disable
please be careful with this program, don't touch apps that you don't know what they are, because one mistake and you will have to factory reset your device, don't blame it on me if something goes wrong

Also, if you don't care being without root, you can upgrade to 5.1.1 lollipop, that fixes battery , stagefright bugs, feels smoother, and other things bugged on 5.0.1

Many tnx again for quick response. I have checked out you SW proposal - "Debloater" and have decided not to use it. Further I would like by all means upgrade now directly to 5.1.1. Lollipop - there is just one major issue - in Slovenia 5.1.1.1 still isn't available for Note 4. On the other hand even Android M is at hand for some (Google) phones.
Could you, or anybody else come up with another idea? (beside to root the phone). Tnx in advance.

go to settings > about phone
see your device model number (e. g. SM-N910C) and search with this a compatible 5.1.1 firmware for your device specific model at sammobile .com and flash it with odin

1. Yeah you should update.
2. That's the full nougat update file size.
3. It's perfectly safe to update, you always do factory reset if you have any issues after the update.

1. GO to wifi settings
2. Forget the wifi networl
3. CONNECT AGAIN BUT
BEFORE CONNECTING
GO TO ADVANCED
OPTIONS AND CHOOSE
STATIC INSTEAD OF
AUtOMATIC. Enter in the
ip address etc and
connect. Problem will be
solved.
I encountered the same today but it seems like it was ISP related. It's gone back to normal for now.
