Improved Stability

Caution:

During instalation, you cannot use your device at all, even for emergency calls. Icons at the home screen and device settings may revert to default and may need to be reconfigured after installation.

Well I let it a try and want to share my experience.

The update took 13 minutes from applying the update untill the full bootup. And drained 3% of a battery from 80% to 77%. All apps and icons on the home screen remained untouched.

As read in another thread now you have the Knox warranty flag/counter.
You can see that when you bring your phone in download/odin mode.

And as I understood now you can't flash back older firmware, or root and flash custom roms without loosing your warranty (warranty void).

Look at this thread!

Now we've got serious problems.

I was hoping that this will be the 4.3 update

Waiting to install will see if there is anything interesting in this one.

I didn't think s4 mini was getting 4.3 this year. (I got an s4m for my wife)

My S4 is locked up with Knox now, I had to make the decision, stock/stable/official or root - stock isn't so bad.

It`s offically annonced that S4 mini will get 4.3 till the end of November and this is sure as Samsung anonce that Gear will support S4 Mini which mean 4.3 for us in the end of November.

As for the Rom I love the stock one and don`t need root as there is wifi tethering so I don`t need to play hacker just to have network on my laptop when traveling.

Do you have a source by chance? I know about the 4.3 and Galaxy Gear compatibility but don't remember reading anything about timing.

I think this will cover it.

A spokesperson for Samsung UK told CNET that Android 4.3 Jelly Bean "will be available across a range of Galaxy devices from mid-November, subject to software testing and approvals by individual networks."

Installing now and see how it goes. The only thing I pray for is the basterds fixed the battery drain bug. I doubt it, but we will see...
Someone mentioned no rooting possible from this version on? Should there be a workaround this, because I am pessimistic they fixed the issue?

For now, everything is in place and the update was non-problematic. We will see how the battery usage goes...
