Jst updated to jelly bean and followed fourlove's steps but left out the 2nd step as i dont use external memory.. so i think thats because it still lags. Bt its bearable if u concentrate in additional features..
The ui is completely different. Makes me feel as if i am using a new phone which is smarter and and larger than galaxy s3 and a little less smart and smaller than the note 2.
But it is still slow.
I love the notifications bar and every other new features.
Couldnt notice any huge change when i updated to ics even if there is a large difference between 2.3 and 4.0.
But there are many noticable difference between 4.0 and 4.1 which u all will love.
I nothiced that samsung has removed many important apps like photo editor, video maker, and polaris office. These were the apps for which the note is famous for.
But u still can download them for free from the samsung app store.
Someone complained that the palm sweep screenshot is missing bt its not. U should try to find that in the settings maybe it is unchecked so not working for u.
Meanwhile samsung has put on some crapware which i never use. Just eats internal memory.
Overall the update is recomended to all users.
U will love many features.
These are the drawbacks of the update
..the phone is slow
..the keyboard is same and its nearly impossible to use it in landscape mode as the keys become wider and less taller.
I recommend samsung to put a num pad between the alphabets in landscape keyboard
..i couldnt find how to set a wallpaper which will be scrollable when
I scroll between the homescreens. That is how to set a landscape wallpaprr
..dont like the browser
..many useful apps missing
..all the apps are not supported in multi window
..smart rotation feature missing
