Holding down the home button to see your most recently used apps looks a lot cooler now. It shows you what was on the screen when you closed out of each app.

The note 2 rocks! However I think it might be too big I hadn't decided yet. I really would like to see what impact the update has.

Can you still get S-OFF or root with the available tools after ICS is installed?

Since the OTA package includes an updated hboot, so I was curious if anyone who installed the OTA update, if they were now limited, or stuck?

Just playing around with it; some times it's a small bit slower, some times it's actually a bit faster. The only problems I've had with it so far is my notes widget is extremely wonky and won't work right, and long pressing a couple widgets has been kinda iffy. Haven't done a reset yet

I let a lot of the apps update, then did a complete reboot, runs MUCH better

Seriously? I think the Note 2 is just a little (just a tad) more up to date than the T-Bolt...
HAHA!! I thought i could bring out some of these comments! Actually, I'm still on the fence with the Note, its a bit difficult for me to use one handed, which truly could be a bit safer since I spend a lot of time on the road. It is super fast and I am starting to figure out some uses for the S pen. I really want to upgrade my Tbolt though, my wife is still using hers, if I take the SIM our of her bolt and put it in mine, will it update without causing any issues?

I'm having problems opening text messages. It seems like if I have only a few from a person it will open up but for people I text a lot, it just keeps saying "Loading.."

I have downloaded and installed it and I have to say that I'm quite happy with the update. The phone works smoothly and I love the changes to the lockscreen, etc.

It seems to take a while to update all of the older stuff. Mine seemed to take at least 10 minutes just to load old conversations. My photos were similar -I thought I lost them for a while, until they were updated/loaded.

Try opening the message app and give it a while to load old messages.

What sorts of testing are you looking for? I may be able to help you out if you can walk me through it.

So far everything seems great.

I'm rooted on a custom Rom, but I am so tempted to restore to my stock nandroid and download this, even though it would mean losing root.

OK, downloaded it - took a few tries since my data connection kept dropping (maybe this is fixed with the new radios? please?).

So far so good. I run MobileIron and Touchdown, and both seem quite happy with the transition. ADW Launcher works fine, so I can't really comment too much on Sense. Swype Beta seems to run fine. Disabled all the bloat I could find and nothing is blowing up yet.

I'll report more in detail later, but I haven't found anything that does not work.
