      Oh, Dee, you aren't reading the posts!
      The update gives you:
      1. Dialer loads faster
      2. Contacts load faster
      3. More RAM available
      4. A couple of new apps in the drawer (Play Music and Play Magazines... both yuk).

      RE: The battery. I paid £21.99 & free P&P. Seeing as how a genuine Samsung battery is £12.99 then it is a bargain for a battery that has 3 1/2 times the power.I didn't know that Australia doesn't have an Amazon site until I looked just now, strange.
      Anyway, it was on the Amazon.com site at $33, but is currently out of stock.

                I was also having the same issue. So i downgrade the Firmwire to Official ice cream sandwich (4.0.4) . and then updated it again to JB (4.1.2). Now the problem got fixed and phone is showing its real power. Amazing..

                  I was surprised at how comfortable it was to hold. I thought it would be like a house brick but it actually fits nicely in the hand.

I have this phone for nearly a year now and I can tell you that it's still as good as new! If you have problems and since you just bought it, you should return back for service or get it replace. Get contact with Samsung customer service...with reasonable approach they will help you sort out the problem. On that note, I have my fridge replace to brand new after my old one faulty and out of warranty.

                          i got this phone a week ago and there's only one problem i have with it, so far. the messaging app fails from time to time. when i reply to an sms the whole conversation disappears, then all of my conversation disappears. of course, restarting the phone is the solution but still, it's very frustrating when it happens. and while typing an sms i get horizontal lines on the screen, it's not that bothering but this is a high end smartphone and i think samsung should fix these bugs on the next update.

                          PROS on this phone:
                          display is excellent.
                          music is excellent.
                          camera is great.
                          interface responds very quickly.

                          CONS:
                          overall build feels cheap. rear cover gets scratched easily.
                          battery life is short (of course, this is a quad-core monster)
                          loudspeaker is not so good.

                          overall i think the phone is very nice. i can live with the said cons so i am very pleased with this phone.:)

                            So normal phone with completely bad battery vs good apps good specification but not working more than 3-hours with just internet & 15 to 20 minuet call.

                              All you have to do is a factory/hard reset and that will restore proper drivers.
                              Some times you have to clear your cache partition then do the hard rest.
                              But don’t worry which every way you do it, its restoring the new ROM not the old one you had on the phone.

                                  It’s the inter-carrier connection for your mobile application. Normally, it's universal and doesn't affect your phone but I always check the languages of a ROM I am using before I download it if I can because then I can be sure that the ROM is supported by my carrier.

                                    I jump from version to version all the time and just clear the cache partition and do a hard reset if I have any booting problems after the flash/change.

                                    This Sunday I went from CSC i9300uubell1 to i9300oxaemc2 and because I cleared the cache partition first and went directly to download mode after. The switch was fault free.
                                    True I was not changing language but is there more to the CSC I need to know?
