Mine is an unbranded UK device. It was CF rooted, but now root is broken (obviously).
My frozen apps are still frozen, which is good. I'll re-root when home, but i'd say the phone is a little smoother again.

One thing i've noticed so far is in the wallpaper crop screen. It now shows portrait and landscape crop boxes, though i can only effectively use the portrait. I assume this is to show possible scrolling home screen? Shout if you get it to work....

Default keyboard is better especially swype. Far more accurate.

Music crackling fixed with headphones plugged in. Using Bluetooth stereo headset, wifi must be off otherwise crackling occurs.

Check the camera app. They still haven't fixed the shortcut problem where the phone "forgets" your new shortcuts but there is a new filter in the shortcut menu to set different colour options. I could be wrong but didn't notice this before.

I am having real issues installing it atm

Keep getting signature verification error in CWM, I rooted using the toolkit and CWM Touch. But to be fair I have never done an OTA on a rooted handset. On my old DHD I just waited for my custom ROM to be updated.

The shortcuts always has worked. Exit camera using back button. This allows the shortcuts to be saved.

Seems like the camera app has been slightly altered. Some buttons have been combined, and I now have a "magic wand" effects shortcut instead. I believe there are some more effects as well? I never used them before so i'm not sure.

I also noticed that launching applications straight from the lock screen is a lot smoother. When I used to launch the camera from my lockscreen, i could briefly see my homescreen (with a black background), before it launched the camera app. Now, it just loads the camera app immediately.

How about the redraw issue?

Could you please confirm? Try to browse using the default browser (Use the browser for about 5 - 10mins & visit as many websites as you can), then press home button to return to homescreen. Check if the homescreen will redraw.

Thanks

Also, is it me or does the phone take a lot quicker to wake up by pressing the power button now? The screen seems to turn on immediately for me now.

I've been trying this since I got the update, and haven't had a redraw issue yet... but, it's too early to tell. It was only happening occasionally on my phone, so could just be a co-incidence.

    I've just read the previous comments on file sharing option being greyed out, mine is the same after the update and nothing I do will let me turn it on. It was working fine the other day as I was streaming a film to my TV. Anyone got any ideas?

    Try deleting folder /data/data/com.sec.android.nearby.mediaserver

    The folder was recreated for me after a reboot and with the exception of a few waits nearby devices works now.

    If your paranoid make a nandroid backup.

    Ps: first load sometimes takes an age. Press wait if the error popup comes on

    Guys asking about rooted upgrade - Wait until we have the full rom from SamMobiles then you can flash via odin.

    I can also dissect to see if it has the cell standby value fixed (but I really doubt it will)

    I will rebase VillainRom to this too in my next update.
