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?

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..

ICS for AT and T in february

In addition, this update seems just for Samsung Galaxy S II and Galaxy Note international version. Meanwhile, the operator version of both devices will get update Android 4.0 ICS in different time, like Galaxy Note for AT&T that’s reported to get it on February 19th.
Update Android 4.0 ICS will brings something interested for Samsung Galaxy S II and Galaxy Note. According to the reports, it will improve the functionality and user interface, even though still using Samsung TouchWiz UI. So, be patient to wait Android 4.0 ICS for your Galaxy S II or Galaxy Note.

Wow, that's some really bad English on that site. And some misinformation too, as the 19th February is the release date for the AT&T Galaxy Note, not the day it will recieve the ICS update.

Did you buy your device from the french provider SFR? No? Then this chart isn`t for you. For heavens sake people, stop ripping things out of context and actually start thinking.

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?

4.1.1

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???

AT&T Note 3 4.4.2 Kitkat info

I was chatting today online with someone from ATT and I asked her about the Kitkat update for our Note 3 and this is the info I got from her.

They told me the same thing last saturday.

I'm amazed a "big news blog" hasn't posted anything about it then
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N900A using Tapatalk

Korean Note3/S4A(S800 variant) are getting bugfix and stabilize update like every 3 days or so, at least 10 updates after 4.4.2 release. Since AT&T does not like minor inclined maintenance updates, they will probably wait until it get settled and push all it once later.

To be honest I kind of like having the new software and having updates pushed frequently for example ios but if it fixes the bug and makes it more stable then I'm fine with that
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N900A using Tapatalk

So a CSR reading off a script or making things up says "The update was faulty, so they pushed it back to get it all fixed that way it didn't ruin the phones" qualifies as AT&T's genuine progress statement on 4.4 to you guys? We're a couple of weeks behind the other U.S. carriers and Rogers which means nothing may be wrong and the wheels of progress at AT&T are just slow(er). Some of us have been using the leak for two months and it didn't "ruin our phones" so you'd have to imagine the final build can't be worse than the leak. Of all the customer-facing priorities AT&T faces I'm sure getting the N3, a single device out of dozens they sell, updated to 4.4 isn't one of the most pressing. Especially because their average customer could probably care less.

Wow thanks for the info because I've been looking all over the Internet for something and no one has said a word about this "faulty update". You've been a huge help. Thank you!

Well I was getting spammed by her so I decided to end and close the chat and I copied and paste it to a notepad and deleted everything to only see the important part that was told. Maybe the leak was good but they started adding other material which made it faulty lol.

well this will be the other reason why they have not pushed it out waiting for 4.43

S6/S6 Edge Marshmallow update expected in Jan 2016

S6 and S6 Edge should get Marshmallow in Jan 2016. Note 5 and S6 Edge+ will get update to newest Android OS this year, in December.
Note 4 and Note Edge ali month after S6, in February.
S5 and Alpha will probably get Marshmallow in March or even later.
Also it's nice to see Galaxy A and Galaxy E series getting Marshmallow but I would be even more happy if everyone got MM. My 3 years old Lumia 920 and cheapest Lumia 520 can run newest Windows 10 Mobile build officially so this is sad.

Damn we need this update very fast... The battery life for this device is very poor and doze might rev this up...

It is supposed to already have it but it doesnt work and i have been extremely exited for marshmallow but samsung needs to make me wait. If they push any further im going to go insane.

All of Samsung developers are most likely working on the s7 firmware and tizen.

LG did a good job again, they have released Marsmallow before all companies.

Idk if that is sarcasm. But I don't have the inside scoop. The S7 is being pushed to release earlier next year so they are probably working hard on software features since the phone will probably be the same form factor. Tizen has made improvements. If Samsung wanted to they can dedicate all their mobile division man power to work on the Samsung flagship updates but they are constantly working on newer devices, os, and more. Samsung seems to release a device every 3 weeks.
Sent from my SM-G925T using Tapatalk

first of all. the eta you can find on the web, is only rumers, samsung have not told anybody about an eta, or put anything out on it, as always there is only one person from samsung that know when.
2. to say that all from samsung is working on the new flagship, is like saying that all of apple is working on a car, so there wont be any new devices or updates.
3. there is no company that ar releasing a new phone every 3 weekes, the rotate it so it will look like it, alot of the samsung phones the stats ar getting now, have been on the market for 6 mounth en EU, and the other way around

it is going to take more still
that is too much trust in the blogs

Screw that lmao.
