i467 Note 8.0 LTE model - KitKat 4.4.2 finally pushed out! (In Canada at least?)

[TekNinja81]

Hey folks,

Woke up to a nice surprise this morning, after having the usual "already up-to-date" message as recently as 2 days ago. KitKat 4.4.2 has finally been released -- at the very least -- to the Canadian, Telus-branded Note 8.0 i467 LTE.

So far everything seems to be working properly, but as is typical with major OS updates the tablet is a bit sluggish while things sort themselves out. i.e. transitions during opening/switching apps are taking up to a few seconds at a time... Already performing better after the first reboot. I'll keep an eye on things over the next few days and see how everything goes -- One thing in particular I'm hoping for is better battery life; but more importantly, I haven't had enough playtime with it to see whether the particularly annoying random freezes have gone away.

Anyone else get the update on their i467/LTE units? How's it going for yours so far?

At&t still on 4.1.2 and saying "up to date".

How is the note 8 doing after a month or so? Have you had a chance to check if apps can be move to the ext SD to give more head room for the OS as well as improving the "response" speed of the tablets?

Can you please check if you can move apps to the external SD.

Any luck with moving apps to external SD card to free up core memory?
