Re: Kit Kat on Sprint note 3 - IT'S HAPPENING

I didn't even have to do the framework thing, just searched for update and there it was. Can't install it until later, does anyone have any first impressions? I am going to miss the green battery. :-(

Re: Kit Kat on Sprint note 3 - IT'S HAPPENING

I did a manual check for updates in the appropriate settings menu, and it was available. Took ~45 minutes or so to download the ~500MB package and a longer than normal boot to finish updating everything, but I've got KitKat now. Does anyone happen to know if this update fixes the flaky WiFi connection and erroneous KNOX notification issues? I didn't see mention of them specifically anywhere, but maybe they fall under something general like carrier-specific fixes.

Mine is waiting. Going to town and will down load later on 4G. Home connection is ridiculously slow this morning.

Same thing here, it stopped at 330mb and I have the exact same problem you do. Even Best Buy couldn't push it and Kies days I'm up to date and shows MJ4 as the latest update.

HELP! :banghead:

Re: Kit Kat on Sprint note 3 - IT'S HAPPENING

Took me like an hour to download over Wifi, I really do like the white icons..yea yea minor details but still.

also I think battery life did improve for me, which is what I was hoping would happen..overall im pleased.

Have you had any luck getting it started again?

Nope. I have rebooted, cleared dalvik, pulled battery, cleared Google services cache and still get the same result. I can find nothing on Sprint or Sammobile other than it was released today but no links for download.

I will try Kies again tomorrow and call Sprint tech. I'll post results, or not.

Re: Kit Kat on Sprint note 3 - IT'S HAPPENING

Finally got it this morning in a very slow download via wifi. Took over 2 hours. Everything looks the way it did before except for the while icons in the notification bar. I haven't dug into menus yet but it does appear to be a bit snappier. I believe the servers were overloaded yesterday and they shut them down for a period, nothing else makes sense to me. Nonetheless, I got it without any extraordinary effort. Just hit update and it started downloading after trying it intermittently last night.

Re: Kit Kat on Sprint note 3 - IT'S HAPPENING

did anyone noticed that they changed the font?, I have it on the default one btw

Re: Kit Kat on Sprint note 3 - IT'S HAPPENING

I have one widget that uses the default font and it changed. Everything else is still in the downloaded font I've been using for months.

Re: Kit Kat on Sprint note 3 - IT'S HAPPENING

I got mine downloaded at 1am Friday morning. Not seeing a whole lot that is different, but definitely is much snappier and battery life is improved(both major pluses in my book)
