Re: Note 3 UK KitKat Update

Yeah, strange that carriers in the USA already are seeding the update while the international version is mostly waiting...

We also have the same version (N9005) , the international version is N9000

Re: Note 3 UK KitKat Update

I have still not received any update, I am toying with the idea of installing the Polish KitKat update onto my Note 3, the latest firmware from Sammobile also contains the fix with accessories not working and SD card issues.

Re: Note 3 UK KitKat Update

I really don't get what's happening with the international release of this update... It's been more than a month since things were almost ready and still nothing...

Re: Note 3 UK KitKat Update

Mine updated today. Not really noticed much difference after around an hour of usage.

Re: Note 3 UK KitKat Update

I'm in Scotland and downloaded the update today. I've never updated an Android phone before as I've previously only used Apple. Is it a complicated process? Will I lose any data that's on the phone right now? Should I switch back to TouchWiz before updating? I'm using Nova Prime currently?

Sorry for all the questions but I don't want to get it wrong as there's no mobile signal where I live and broadband is merely an aspiration around these parts. I had to drive 12 miles in to town to download the update, lol.

I'm on three network no update yet bought the phone unlocked sim free. Keep getting a notification marker on the settings icon but when I click it there's no update, weird.

Re: Note 3 UK KitKat Update

I'm on 3 and got the update this afternoon. I'm going to give it a miss for now though, too many horror stories about bugs for my liking. If it ain't broke and all that.

Re: Note 3 UK KitKat Update

My phone in the notification bar this evening said software update available.. So did the update and I can only see the battery symbol has turned white and the wife symbol don't seem to show send/receive. Cannot see anything else yet so a little disappointed.

Re: Note 3 UK KitKat Update

Is there a guide somewhere on how to go about the update?

Sent from my SM-N9005

It's easy. Go to Settings - About - Software Update.

The update won't overwrite any data you've saved in apps or otherwise. KitKat isn't a great deal different to Jelly Bean so far. As pointed out by someone else already, the icons along the top are now black and white instead of green. I can't see any other difference either.

Sim free Note on T-Mobile in sunny Yorkshire - 'The latest updates have already been installed'. I'm waiting for this update before I root.
