There's no difference visually since the improvements made were under the hood. One in my book is the lag-free performance of the os.

what's the big difference between ICS and JB?
I had an N7 and the only difference I can find is Google Now (which did nothing for me on my tablet)
Also, what will we lose?
I know flash is not present but can still be loaded on, although not seen anyone say it works, but not looked that hard.
BBC iplayer?
anybody knows when is the update?
im waiting the update to my GT 3110
im from portugal, i dont know if the update out at same day for all...??!?!?
great thread
i am waiting for jb for my GT 3110 too, does anybody know when we will get the update?
I hope the "official" update for the Galaxy Tab 2 with have these issues fixed that the currently leaked versions have....
-portrait only home screens
-mike not working in some apps
-battery percentage on notification bar

Butter. Really, most of the differences are not changes you can see. They cleaned up the code and are compiling it with a newer toolchain. It helped optimize things more and provides for a more fluid interface.
I have an unlocked version. According to the TmoNews article, the unlocked versions should see the update first as they they have to go through carrier testing.
Hopefully the Tab version will come out quickly, then we'll just have to wait for AT&T to muck around with uit for 6 months before the rest of the devices get it.
There's a video with all changes uploaded in youtube, I can't post it 'cause I'm a new member but is there, the google event release of jb almost 3 months ago.

Alhamdulillah, can't hardly wait..
The update is still not available yet for my country, so I have installed my own with germany version
JB is great..

[Discussion] Any News about Android [4.2.x]

Hello guys.....
As we all know that Samsung made a huge changes for thier smartphones with jellybean 4.1.2......
One more thing we all get bored with jellybean 4.1.2..... Is it right....???
And what do you think....??? And what changes going to be done in jellybean 4.2.x....... What features going to be add
Will samsung improve more (or) only make minute changes
Did you get any news (or) information about upcoming update or leaks for Jellybean 4.2
So what your opinion on this
Lets share your thoughts opinions, leaks
Reversed
I would rather want key lime pie.. I can skip the 4.2.1 update...

Samsung uses to hold 6 months from a new major release to provides its latest devices with the new version, so 4.2.x must arrive on may-June to sIII & note 2

How's it going everyone. I'm new to this section of the forum as I just upgraded from a S3. I recently updated my Note 2 but it still shows 4.1.1 is there a 4.1.2 out? I'm in the US and not sure what is the latest stock version available for the Note 2. Any help is appreciated.
Maybe samsung will do the youtube fix with the bar

I prefer 4.1.x to 4.2.x so I'll likely skip that update if it comes. I'm actually on 4.1.1 now after reversing back from 4.1.2 and I'm happy with it.
When I had my Nexus 4.2 was slower and buggier than 4.1.

I dont see any diffrence between the 4.1.2
Sent from my Samsung Galaxy Note II using TapaTalk 2.
personally, i dont really mind when we get 4.2.1. there arent that many add ons that i would consider significant enough to warrant an update.
want lockscreen widgets? most music apps already have them and some of the other apps on the market already do too.
want photo sphere? i dont see how samsung (or other app developers) wouldnt be able to add that themselves to their own camera app.
improved keyboard with gesture typing? we already have that.
multiple users? dunno about you guys but im the only one using my phone. sure, would be nice to lock out friends with a guest account when they borrow my phone, but not a necessity or something i'll use everyday.
wireless mirroring? cant we already do that with allshare?
daydream? not something i'd use since it pretty much stops the device from going to sleep, which will reduce battery life.
4.2.1 is mainly an improvement for those who are using unadulterated aosp and aokp, but for someone like me who doesnt actually mind touchwiz, its not significant enough for me to shout out whoop dee doo.

4.1.2 is out for some regions but not all yet. theres been a few revised 4.1.2 updates for my device already so maybe check with kies on yours?
I hope Samsung add a better way to manage your tabs in stock browser.( like the way in Dolphin Browser, Chrome etc.) :fingers-crossed:
I can't believe they didn't implemented such thing in first place, considering the fact that we have this ginormous screen.

4.2.1 has been out for a couple months now.
You can see how it runs by flashing a CM10 rom or even better AOSPA.
as usual, samsung will release s4 and note3 first, then update note2

That'll be for Key Lime Pie. It's a lot more possible for us to get a 4.2.1 update before Note 3 gets released.

So..... Adter seeing Galaxy s4 software features on 4.2.2..... Its to exciting for us...
Egarly waiting to see 4.2.2:thumbup: on note 2
You folks do know that there has already been a 4.2.1 leak for the S3 a while back. Most likely they will start rolling it out after the S4 becomes commercially available.
The firmware wasn't very stable as it was a development build but it did contain many of the features that ship with the S4.
I imagine the Note2 version will contain some extra stuff.
You can get the S3 firmware from Sammobile.

[NEWS] Official 4.4 Kitkat will arrived on Galaxy Grand

Yesterday, Samsung U.S. confirmed that 14 devices will soon be making the switch to Android 4.4 KitKat. However, there was no mention of when international models would be receiving the KitKat update. Fret not users, as we now have confirmation as to which international models will be getting the Android 4.4 KitKat update. The list is Samsung Poland’s official KitKat update list that was obtained today by Polish blogger Robert Nawrowski. It is to be noted that not all models listed below would be making the switch to KitKat right away. They will move to Android 4.3 Jelly Bean, and eventually receive KitKat.
Here are the international models that will be making the switch to Android 4.4 KitKat:
Galaxy Note 3
Galaxy Note 2
Galaxy S4
Galaxy S4 Active
Galaxy S4 Zoom
Galaxy Mega 6.3
Galaxy Mega 5.8
Galaxy Grand
Galaxy Express
Galaxy Note 8.0
Galaxy Note 10.1
Galaxy Note 10.1 2014 Edition
Galaxy Tab 3 7.0
Galaxy Tab 3 8.0
Galaxy Tab 3 10.1

The list is identical to the list of models detailed by Samsung U.S., although unlike the U.S. list, it isn’t clear as to when these mobiles will receive the OTA update. Most devices launched last year are included in the list, with a few notable exclusions like the Galaxy Core. It is interesting to see that the Galaxy S3 won’t be making the switch to Android 4.4 KitKat, but considering that it is now close to two years since its official launch, we won’t blame Samsung for giving the S3 a miss.

It's grand only else 2 would have been mentioned. But still can't trust the same until official word is heard from Samsung itself.

Its from Samsung Poland
The good news is that this list is even bigger than the US-centric one, with 17 devices on it: Galaxy Note 3, Galaxy S4, Galaxy S4 Active, Galaxy S4 Mini, Galaxy S4 Zoom, Galaxy Note II, Galaxy Mega 6.3, Galaxy Mega 5.8, Galaxy Grand, Galaxy Express 2, Galaxy Note 10.1, Galaxy Note 10.1 2014 Edition, Galaxy Note 8.0, Galaxy Tab 3 7.0, Galaxy Tab 3 8.0, Galaxy Tab 3 10.1, and Galaxy Grand 2 LTE. Some of these may jump directly to 4.4, and others that are running older software versions may still receive some interim updates as well.

I wonder the DUOS(I9082) version of Galaxy Grand will have the official ones.
but sure thing is if Galaxy Grand will receive the official update, it can make our existing 4.4 ROMs more stable.
Also, Galaxy S III wont receive it because of not enough RAM (1Gb), same then Galaxy Grand has the same amount
or RAM (1Gb) though will recieve an Official ones.
I think of two things on this:
1. If Galaxy Grand will receive Kitkat, Galaxy S III will receive it well, worst case, both phones will not receive it.
2. Galaxy Grand (only 12Months Old)is around Google's 18-month rule, while Galaxy S III is almost 20months Old.
it's for sure grand will recieve 4.3 and let's hope 4.4 in future after android 5 update release in future:victory:
but am gona keep my lovely grand for that long until it taste real kitkat love my grand so much:crying:

First..its not SO-CALLED KitKat..it is FREAKING KitKat ..developers leave everything for days, their personal time,sitting just on that freaking screen, not making their ass off just so that WE can get KitKat and custom Roms ..so atleast don't insult them and their hard work by calling them SO-CALLED KITKAT..it is kitkat(every driver,single lib, single .dex file,single smali ) everything is pure kitkat...not so stop such comments u make especially with words "soCALLED" ..
Now abt the Samsung thingy .. @black87 only said that we already got KitKat(as that guy said waiting for KitKat)
there are many new comers who don't even know galaxy grand duos got custom KitKat Roms.. That's why the guy just made a point!!
Well informing something ain't a crime , is it ? ....

Informing isn't a crime, but for normal users custom roms is not a daily driver... Neither these ROMS give full functionality, neither they are as enjoyable as stock ROMS are..
And taunting that we had kitkat long ago seems bad, coz d basic thing is missing, and thats Dual SIM support, thats y most of the people bought this phone...

Depending heavily on personnel choice that someone uses dual Sim or not, claiming that custom Roms don't give full functionality sounds baseless..
Gimme second reason except dual sim problem.!
I get that many are scared to root and gain extra functional access to device(as it might brick the phone ), but one can't truly become a tester if he hasn't bricked his device(trust me, 100% guys brick their device for some obvious reasons and inexperience). That is why Xda is for..

I know u waiting for the official release of tw, but I would recommend to just once give kk(customs) a try , and u will get it what am talking about!

sm n900 no cm rom ported yet??

Hi there, I've noticed that we don't have cm rom yet for the SM N900 note 3 exynos, please is there any developments in motion or it freeze to develop it thanks it's really frustrating...
Exynos is an entirely different (closed) platform. Considering cm is just getting dailydriver stable on the snapdragon,I fear it will be a long time...
Hmm ok rooting the sm n900 is useless without the cyanogen rom
Ok thanks
Wonder why I bought this note 3 exynos which is always lagging behind other brands. This set is for those who just receive & call and nothing more.
