Multi view update on December 27th!

**ItsaRaid** · 12-27-2012, 01:06 PM

UPDATE info:
I called AT&T Data Tier2 support...No OTA! It belongs to Samsung (Malarkey). She transfered me to Samsung. Melinda knew of no such OTA. Stated it belongs to Google
(Double Malarkey). She said Samsung does NOT update the OS Its Google's baby.
I asked abt 2 things.. multi window and the verticle tool bar . She said yes to MW and IDK abt the Vtool bar. Fixes yes but wouldnt specify. She clearly stated its not available yet.
She also said continually pressing the SU tab will cause further delays.
Hows It work? You will get a notification that there is a OTA available, click yes you want it and Voila- (Triple Malarkey) (I like VP Joe Biden).. OTA=WIFI best way.
Hope this helps.

I attempted to take a group picture and when I hit the shutter button, my phone took a series of shots and then it put a yellow box over all the recognizable faces. When you click on a face, three different faces pop-up and you choose the best one. You don't have this feature??

Ahhh...YES you are right. I will strike that out from my previous post

I don't know why I thought that. Darn, I could have used it during the family visits this past weekend!

Thanks for clearing it up. My mistake. Perhaps I was thinking of Group Cast.

**ItsaRaid** · 12-27-2012, 02:00 PM

I think its in the pict you posted already on the left (verticle)

**lgreenberg** · 12-27-2012, 02:02 PM

Yes.

Downloads 178MB file then it reboots.

Goes to AT&T logo with progress bar and percentage. Took about 10 minutes on that.

Then re-boots to Android Update screen. Took about 5 minutes on that.

Then another reboot and it's done. Stays on boot up screen for a minute or two, just be patient.

Whole thing took about 15 minutes. No data or settings changed or lost.

I think the person is referring to Samsung's MultiTASK feature. It is brought up during Multi-window use. But, can be used aside from Multi-window, as it was on the S3 I played with in the AT&T store when waiting for the Note 2 to come out. The S3 had this via long pressing the home button. I think it will now be via long-pressing the 'back' button. I assume the S3 access to that will change IF it get's the update, but I haven't heard about that getting mult-window. Perhaps it's too small of a screen for now (or waiting for the S4/larger screen version). The 10.1 Note tablet has featured Multi-window in it's 'elf' advertisement too!
