Yes..This was announced. It fixes exynos although I'm still wondering what that means. What was wrong with our exynos to begin with

There was an error which allowed non system apps to write to restricted storage, this could cause malicious apps to wreck havoc by essentially having a back door. This mmc erroneous write was part of the way the camera and the chip worked together

I'm surprised samsung made this update 4.1.2. Doesn't contain the new pack of features like the update in Europe. Does it?

The hover thing was already available. I use it all the time. You can hover over pictures in the gallery too that will do the same

    Rooted and Updated

    I thought I'd provide some info for anyone with a rooted Note 2 worrying about the software update. This was my sequence of events:

    *Stock TouchWiz ROM throughout*

    1. I was rooted forever using the toolkit.
    2. I downloaded Chainfire's ExynosAbuse app and used it to fix the Exynos bug.
    3. Got prompted for Software Update.
    4. Undid Chainfire Exynos fix.
    5. Used OTA Rootkeeper to temporarily unroot.
    5. Ran Software Update - no probs
    6. Used OTA Rootkeeper to restore root.

    So far... flawless *knocks on wood*

    I'm with you. Anybody know a way to just disable the notification?
    I tried freezing "system update" in titanium, and then clearing the cache. The stupid pop up keeps haunting me.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated

    delete the update from /cache>
    then go to system/app>
    rename FWUpgrade.apk to FWUpgrade.apk.bak
    and if you are on odexed>
    you need to name FWUpgrade.odex to FWUpgrade.odex.bak as well
    -fix permissions
    -reboot
    -Party like a rock star

    Is the update newer than MA5?

    Higher numbers and letters usually mean this, yes. ;)
