So glad you're enjoying it. If you have any issues just ask on here. Also, when I first got mine, I found a lot of good tips and the manual after I registered it at Samsung. My favorite feature is the S note. I'm sure you'll find the Note a great asset as a tool and an awful lot of fun!
I can't upgrade it to ics. It is still on 2.3.6 and kies won't work to upgrade it and ota won't work either. Tries removing and installing kies a few times and it doesn't work. Ota says my software is up to date.

I had kies on my pc and when I plugged in the note its says there is a firmware upgrade available. When I go to upgrade it goes through the first 2 loading screens fine. Then when my phone goes to a screen that has the little android guy on it and says "downloading" it just doesn't do anything. Left it plugged in for over 4 hours yesterday amd it didn't move 1% after it go to that stage in the update process. When I do kies air I don't get any notification to update firmware and I didn't even see a place where it said anyhing about updating<br />Originally Posted by ryanr509<br />

Okay, let's work through this. When you open Kies air on both your Note and your pc, does it say it needs to upgrade? You have to have Kies on a pc for this to work. I installed it on my desktop and it said it needed to upgrade. I worked through instructions that were from a link that samsung sent me. I'll go look for it and get back to you with it. I followed the instructions to the letter because I was very nervous about doing it and I didn't have any problems. First, before the update make sure your note is fully charged. It'll recalibrate the battery and if it's low, that'll be the new full. I'll be right back with the link.

OH dear, I don't think I can help. Once I had it to the point where it was downloading, it went pretty smoothly as I remember. I wouldn't suggest AT&T support but you might try calling Samsung. Also, my first choice would be to start a new thread here and put in the subject line that your upgrade stops mid-download so that it might draw the attention of someone who can help. If I see anything elsewhere I'll let you know. If you look at your phone under Menu > Settings > About Phone.
Scroll to the bottom and look for Baseband Version. It should be I717UCLA1 before updating. It will be I777UCLF6 after the update. What does yours' say? (this is the at&t version...)

Welp tried it on a buddies laptop and it would get to about 5% on the actual firmware upgrade the very last part then say the internet connection timed out. Trying it on a different computer. First download of kies wouldn't open for some reason so download it again aamd going to try one more time. Who ever decided to not push this OTA needs to get stabbed in the eyes

Does your Note have any warranty from where you bought it? Sounds as if this updating issue may be the reason the prior owner wanted to sell it . . .
