Yesterday when I turned on my Galaxy Tab 2 (U.S.) I noticed that my Tab was downloading the software for Jellybean, but when it asked if I wanted to install, I keep telling it 3 hours. I'm uncertain and afraid to upgrade because everything is perfect in ICS and from what I've read, some of my favorite features aren't available. First, they got rid of the email widget I heard and I used that all the time as I have 3 email accounts and have them all sent to that email and I can check them easier. They also got rid of the screenshot button, although I found out that even in ICS all you have to do is hold down the power button at the same time as the down volume button to take a picture. Not as much a big deal, but why did Android go backwards? My main concern over all the above mentioned is compatibility with apps. I don't know which apps may not be compatible or which apps may act funny or not right as a result of the upgrade. I love using Rocket Player and Isyncr for music and hopefully that won't change. Another issue is they removed 2 homescreens and now you can only have 5 to choose from instead of 7. Again, why go backwards. Plus, they took the time and battery meter and put them up top, normally no big deal, but now they are only half the size and it's harder to see. I don't mind the notifications having to be pulled down like a curtain from the top since my phone, which has ICS has always been like that. It's weird how the same OS can be different on two different devices. Anyway, I'm looking for any suggestions on whether I should upgrade, or is there a way to get rid of that reminder every 3 hours to upgrade and also is anyone having problems with their apps working properly after upgrade? I'm really scared to mess with a great thing.
