Jellybean Update for Note 10.1 N8010

My next Android tablet will be a nexus, provided it comes with an SD card slot. I'm tired of waiting for updates, usually the US is always last to get it.

If the Nexus 10 had an SD slot I would have one already. They indicated that Nexus' never would though.

just because you had a good experience with your xoom, it doesn't mean that everyone else will, and yes it's called gedifying your tablet, i did the same with my tablet as it was a uk model and was never going to get updated.

the latest jellybean update 4.1.2 completely killed my xoom, i can't use it anymore, i can't unlock the screen and have to press the power button on the back 20 times before i can swipe to unlock and use it but then 10 seconds later it locks up again and i have to do a hard reboot each time but it doesn't get any better, can't scroll down to view a webpage, can't type even one word because it gets completely unresponsive and there is nothing i can do to fix it, so i am selling it for parts and getting a note but won't touch jellybean again after that, i lost £300 because of jellybean's update, you have to understand why i am so angry about loosing that kind of money.

Can you not reflash another ROM?

My GNex and my old Viewsonic GTab have been so screwed up with my tinkering that I thought I would never get them back but somehow, with the help of these forums, I've been able to bring them back every time.

I hate compromises. Why can't they just build the dream tablet and earn the loyalty of people like me. :)

Why is there no mention of the update for the WiFi only version N8010? Will the update be available thru Kies?

After i have upgraded my device ( galaxy note n8000) from ice cream to jelly beans,
I can't register. Attached is error screenshot.

Thanks in advance for your support
 
Seems to me that Samsung has a monthly roll-out program for updates. Germany got the GT-N8000 jb update first on Nov 7th, now we see they update the wi-fi only version about a month later.

Hopefully the UK wi-fi version will update around a month after the 3g version, which was about 2 weeks after Germany got it..

I'm happy to wait until the official version hits the streets.

I suppose Samsung has to satisfy the Mobile Networks who want their customers looked after first, but it is frustrating for those of us who opt for the wi-fi model.

Are they spreading the load on their Update servers?
 
If this was a week ago I'd be leaping to update, but I've rooted, installed Switchme with 4 users and downloaded all previous downloads for each of them over the past few days and I'm not ready to go through all that again. Especially since it's not a straightforward official route.
Is there a massive difference between 4.0.4 and 4.1.1 on this tablet? I'm tempted to hold out until 4.2 -even if Samsung will likely take 6 months to bring it -if EVER!

4.2 at least will have multi-user capability built-in.

Well. If you after multi-user capability only than you may as well wait for official 4.2
I wanted the pen-enchantment option of Samsung's Premium Pack so I'll say its a great upgrade. I can't say anything about performance as just started to test it. Looks smooth and fast though.
I supposed one can just wait for official AIR update, but I'm not very patient when it comes to new stuff :D

Process of manual its easy and strait-forward so anybody can do this and it doesn't involve rooting so there is additional benefit of not loosing warranty.
Therefore I'll say if you want it - just get it. After all the official UK (or most western countries) would not be any different when it finally arrive. ;)

"5 layouts for multitasking"?
What does this mean? I have had JB on my N8000 for some weeks - flashed from first release. I now have around 30 different apps on my Multitaking Bar, having modified many of my favorites for multitasking. I would LOVE to store and recall different layouts. This is the first time I see some mention of layouts, other than the two old options of Dual View and Cascade View - which still show on my JB Bar.
Am I missing something? I really hope so!
