Umm, not to burst your bubble guys but you do realize that there already is a thread about the 4.0.4 stock rom? There isn't a need for more threads

Ooooh, a link to a blog which appears to rip off other blogs by copying their content word for word, linking to another blog, which links to sammobile? Awesome. Thanks for making a new thread to spam that crap. We needed more 4.0.4 threads anyway.

just recieved a firmware update , it still say's version 4.0.3

What was your previous version?

i really hope with this update they fixed those bugs... my s2 had many problems and so my friends galaxy s2 s since the ics update .. gingerbread is still the best rom in my opinion

whats all the buzz about 4.04, its not like its a special upgrade, its still ics....
Im more interested in JB, come on guys, are we going to get it?????
I really hope so, personally i dont like ics and im still running LA4 GB, since day 1 of pretty much flashing my phone, it works for mw, ics doesnt.
So if anyone has any goss on JB, would be cool, i know the s3 and hox and note will get it, but, will we..

With JB, try waiting another 6 months.
You do not need the ROM released in your regions to install. Most of them are fine, unless you want languages specific to your region.

my s2 is rooted with CF-Root and im on salman rom, do i have to unroot to be able to uppdate ?

I am one of them, but ICS for the AT&T Note does not help us AT ALL. It is not relevant to the N7000... you know, the section of this forum this post was made.

It helps us in the sense that if the AT&T ICS build is near enough complete to be shown ofd at CTIA and leaked, one must imagine the international can't be far behind.

I care. It's a load of crap that a branded (AT&T, none the less) phone has leaks before the international version does. We do not have a stable/usable ICS version yet that doesn't present bricking as a possible outcome.... extremely frustrating.

Midteam 1.1 (CLP6) is great for me and more stable and faster than GB ROMs. I have more bugs and slow work at GB ROMs...
By the number of leaks and news regarding this, I bet we, N7000 users aren't gonna taste ICS anytime soon.

That is an i9220 repack based ROM and bricking your phone is a possible outcome every time you access CWM.

It'll be nice to have an official ICS release for the international Note if only for the purposes of ripping out the necessary drivers and framework tweaks needed to get an AOSP build work perfectly (hardware accelerated video, true S-Pen functionality, MHL output, USB OTG, etc...)
Such a day when this exists, will be glorious for the Note!

You can get annoyed all you want but Samsung said Q3 and Q3 is not over yet.
We still have two month at maximum to wait... But im really happy with GB. I have had no problems at all with GB and the battery lasts a day with normal usage. Still i really want the new features that have been added on ICS for the S-Memo.
I do not care, go with this to at en t section ore post this in ics sticky thread.

yes because that phone was the first to be shipped with ics, so that is basically the bleeding edge for ics
I don't mind a 403 without the bugs atm battery(wakelocks) sucks, touchscreen sometimes hangs, apps not working well do OS bugs, Lockscreen bug hangs alot processes/apps, more importantly LPY bricks issues, don't think it is 100% lpy problem but still want my mind not to it all the time, want to wipe phone and can't.

Well my sgs2 got 4.0.3, 2 months ago, and still no upgrade to 4.0.4. So won't be quick for note either. I love the way they release something totally new and it's need upgrades for bug fixes straight away. How hard it is for these massive companies to get it right first time!

Ummm
Well the unethical way of update release by Samsung made us all confused.. If they would have released it like their prior updates all regions or more than one region then we might have upgraded our devices. But currently their is only one xxlpy Germany experimental release so I am not at all interested.
If you don't have a particular need to upgrade to ICS, then you should probably wait until it gets released locally, or you decide you have a need.
I personally won't be going back to GB, because I like the better external keyboard support (it recognises the CTRL and ALT keys) and also the USB midi support, both of which don't work in GB.
The UI tweaks and snappier response are good, but they're not going to let you don anything you can't do already.
If there's an app you want to use that is ICS only, then that might be a reason to upgrade too.
LPF (which I have found to be a lot better than LPY, in terms of UI speed and battery performance) is a wipe ROM though, so you need to spend a bit of time restoring everything.
If you wait for the OTA release, it might will hopefully not be a wipe ROM, which might make life easier for you.
HTH,
Rich
Hello,
Personally I've been on ICS for almost a month now and I love it, first midnote than Crisckelo (V2 and V3) but now I love the Kingdroid ROM the battery doesn't die and it looks even better with Apex launcher!!
I could not go back to gingerbread!! I haven't tried the stock ICS (LPY or LPF) but with their bloatware the battery would not suit me !!
I can confirm it reads arabic.perfectly. dunno abt japanese.....the rom is so far very stable nd better looking....pinkish display issue solved 90%.......sd card readng bug sometimes solved by unmountng then mountng.
Thanx guys for responding it means alot for me,,,,,

I personally have gone back to GB (rocket ROM) which in terms of battery and responsiveness is better than any ICS ROM I tried. Also there are apps that don't run well on ICS. I guess in a few months time when all official ICS ota's had been released and the developers have had time to tweak them then ICS will be better.

DOnt go to ICS as yet...wait for the eMMC thingi to be resolved first man!
After testing ics on gb again and really happy. And for sure that i want go back to ics a long time.

Yes, looks like GB, but is JB. I got a galaxy nexus (too) with 4.1.1 and looks like GB too. But JB have better perfomance, better transition effects, better notification bar (and notifications), etc.
Why the guy don't share the rom file link??
We'll seek and expect today and the next few days.
when he scroll in the about device section it has a date on 31th july 2012 and when he gets right to the bottom it says TEST KEYS just below xadlg4 at 03:07 in to the video but he quickly moves it back up
btw it's not XADLG4 but XXDLG4.

Im watching it without sound, but is S-Voice gone? I couldn't see it when he was flicking in the app drawer, though there was something that looked voice related on the last page as he was scrolling (but his app drawer was arranged alphabetically...I think). Maybe it's just wishful thinking, but are Samsung using Google Now in 4.1?

4.1.1 update will bring NatureUX to SGS2 (or atleast for the korean version)

I am posting it for those of who didn't see my post in the leak thread.
well, yesterday ota for android 4.1.1 for the koran sgs2 a.k.a 'SHW-M250K showed up at sammobile site.
but this ota is useless since its require 4.1.1 in order to use it.
However, this ota teach us that the update will bring Nature UX and that samsung actually statrted to work on the update.
I took some screenshots of the ota to let you see that it's 100% nature UX /touchwiz UX.

SecSettings,SecLauncher2,TopicWall,WeatherWall,Snote and Splanner are 100% nature ux apks and you will find them in every sgs3 rom (stock of course)
they even included the brand new galaxy note 2 water ripple live wallpaper.
And lastly,here the first line from the ota's update script that prove that there was not misspelling on ota name or something and everything is genuine:

there was a thread for those willing to flash a Korean ROM...the HW is almost the same except NFC and FM radio
Its a different FM radio in the korean version? Lacking NFC is not a problem I think, as the ROM will still work only that the menu's for NFC will generate errors if you try to access them..
But we don't have the full ROM right? We have the ota only! A few MB

I think you meant "experimental build", yeah, this might exist, but they don't leak because it's a leak, Samsung doesn't leak it voluntarily, it turns out to be someone leaking, maybe accidentaly?
So, if you install a Koren ICS ROM, you can install this OTA? =)

I believe it's the latest version of touchwiz UI, like the one in Sgs3.

I'm sure it will. Maybe it's because of apple's patent war against samsung that's why they will update (soon) the UI of sgs2 to avoid patent infringement. So maybe in a way we might have to thank *cough* apple *cough* in a way.
