Same here, I just wanted to freeze out the att ****ware.
I'm going to hold off until tar hits.
hopefully that comes soon like it did on Sprints
I also would want to freeze the bloatware but does rooting the device interfere with updates from at&t for the multiview update? I usually immediately root/unlock bootloader and custom rom my new device. Never actually wanted to run stock like I do now due to the sgn2 features, including the s-pen.
I would assume that as long as you're using the stock rom then ota should still be available; but once you run ota you will probably have to re-root and also hope they don't patch whatever root methods we have currently.
I think I'm going to root soon so that I can play my NOVA3 with my PS3 controller... HDMI on the big screen using my Note 2 as a gaming system... You got to love it.

I plan to wait. Not having the stock TAR and a clear path to true stock has me going at it slowly. Having come from a zombie HP touchpad with CM9... I miss my root toys and tools.
I do really want the multiview OTA!
Rooted! And in just a few minutes...Can't wait to see what' going to happen around here!

I was just about to ask the same thing.
Well, since the official Jellybean update rolled out today for most Canadian carriers (December 2nd,2012) , I feel it be appropriate to make a thread starting your opinions on the update itself .
Update (December 3rd 2012) : ATT Official jellybean released!
What do you like/dislike so far about the update? Improvements? Disappointments?
Please keep it appropriate.
Fast...very Fast.....interface looks nice too

Im curious about audio quality.... On the leak from several months ago.. The music audio was terrible... so bad I downgraded back to official...
Downloading now..... I am quite excited...
So far so good. I was able to retain root using Voodoo's OTA Root Keeper. A lot more bloatware was added by Rogers, but TBP took care of that.
Does anyone notice their devices running a little hotter to the touch?
Nice can't wait to get ours in Cali!
Let's just say I was getting 4/5k on quadrant standard before, after my first test was 5965.

I lost root because I did the update via Kies and didn't notice that OTA Root Keeper doesn't work with Kies updates.
That said, I used the SGS3 Toolkit and rooted it with option 4 without issue.
It is so awesome

i wonder if it's a mistake or not... kind of annoying :/. and the wifi icon looks a little cut off.
tbh, i hadn't rooted my s3 until now, but this update actually makes me want to do it. it just highlights how much of a visual mess touchwiz is....
i actually liked touchwiz on ics, but im missing aokp from my nexus s. maybe ill root my phone again, and continue working on my theme =)
I'm very curious on how different this release is compared to the t-mobile Frosty jb v11. Anyone know?

The Gayish status bar is part of the Jellybean OS, as the Note II has it as well as is running JB.

The greyness of the notification bar is on purpose. It is to prevent prematurely wearing out the blue pixel subset on AMOLED screens. I would keep it.

Whenever you guys get through a recharge cycle, can you check if it fixed the cell standby bug (huge percentage, like 20-30%, when really 2-3%?)?
Thanks in advance, mates.

I'm unsure overall. And don't worry there's no chance it will already be mb1 lol. If new out of box, it will at a minimum be at LJ7. Ma6 and mb1 have been released in the last week. The phones in box left the factory months ago and haven't been updated since maybe in a few months the new in box phones will have the mb1 update so just get ready as if your LJ7 or a previous version.

Update to mb1 before rooting otherwise you will have to root all over again.
Root will work on mb1.
I used the team epic root process mentioned above.
In my case I was rooted with ma6. Got the ota update with stock recovery. Then had to re-root.

I really do not know. I went to MA6 from whatever was previous on my phone(4.1.1). then I rooted then next morning OTA MB1 and rerooted all in less than 48 hours. So i have really no way of knowing what changes were in between MA6 and MB1. There were some minor changes I noticed after updating to MA6.
Google Settings appeared in the App drawer. I think there were some keyboard modifications where there is a separate heptic feedback switch to turn on or off.
Other than that I think everything else was behind the scenes type stuff and bug fixes.
before buying on craigslist, request the ESN number and call up sprint to see if its clean. First thing you should do

Thanks guys. I already picked it up and its great. Everything seems to be working and I can't find a single scratch on it. He gave me a nice case too. Anywho, now that I have it I see I'm on LJ7. How are you guys updating the baseband? I updated PRL, Profile, and I checked for a firmware update but there was none. I am on stock recovery (for now...lol).

Just wanna make sure. Regardless of which baseband I'm on, any rom should work, right? Sprint roms of course. It's just that on the Note 2, some baseband versions wouldn't play nice with certain roms (cause errors, etc.). I'm seeing some roms in dev section saying, "based on ma5" or "based on ljc." Does that mean I HAVE to be on that baseband to flash that rom? Sorry for all the noobish questions but when you bounce around devices, you get confused

Samsung devices act the same. I suggest you read a whole lot more since your question reveals that you really have no idea what you are doing and a brick is in the future... I realize you're excited to play around, but the results of fapping with tissue paper and fapping with sand paper stem from more than just a simple word.

A brick is NOT in my future. Look I respect the fact that you've been around a while and have helped many out but just because I ask a noobish question doesn't mean I'm a noob. I've owned an OG Evo, a EVO 3d, the EVO 4g LTE, the galaxy nexus, the sg2, the gnote 2, and sg3 and many more I probably can't remember right now. I have been a "flashoholic" for quite a while, flashing roms, radios, mods, etc. I've even helped devs build flashable zips to install mods. I HAVE NEVER BRICKED A DEVICE. Maybe my question wasn't clear but it doesn't matter cuz I already updated my baseband to mb 1 and I've flashed several roms, all without incident. It seems to me that all roms work regardless of what baseband your on (as long as they are for the right device). I respect you and others on this forum and I just didn't appreciate the tone with which this came across.
Just got the 4.1.2 jelly bean update the other day for my spring samsung galaxy s2 epic 4g touch. So far I love the new OS but seem to be having a few issues.
1. battery life is substantially worse than ICS.
My battery was at 95% and I used my gps this morning for about 30minutes and it caused my battery to go down to 50%. before the update it would only use about 10%-15%.
any way to fix my battery life?
2. I also keep getting this error "the process google.process.gapps has stopped" Not sure what it means/how do I fix it.
Sounds like you are going to need the rooted nodata GB27 odin one click from the Rwilco repository. Use that search bar up there. It works wonders. I promise.

You are not understanding what I am saying... You basically need to completely reflash the ROM to fix your issues... That is the easiest method.

The neat thing about nodata is that it keeps your data. You can also root and then use Titanium Backup and save all your apps and system data then restore it when you flash a new ROM. Root definitely has its perks.

For right now with the bootloader Knox issues, I'm sticking with 4.12 and using the the 4.3 MK7 radio. I've gone through them all and this
improved my signal and battery time significantly. More over, with this modem improvement, I've fallen in love again with my finely tuned
Jedi-x20 all over again. ptmr3, still my idol!!!
I also flashed the MK7 modem. Haven't really noticed a vast improvement..and it also didn't deliver some of my calls and went straight to vm. But hoping it makes a difference as its used more throughout the day. .
To all people having problems,
I personally had to flash the deodexed rom about 3 times before the problems got fixed. First time camera wasn't working but I read somewhere that when first on stock taker pictures and then update the kernel. Second it was super sluggish...barely moving. Third time everything worked fine and have yet to come across and problems.
Just remember to keep erasing cache and dalvik after every flash/step.

Man people, I'm sorry for all of you. I received it while using tweaked but could not flash it so I went back to stock image using Mobile odin and triangle away. After going complete stock I received the update again then went ahead and installed it using the stock recovery. I gave up root because I'm impatient and couldn't wait 24 hours until the rooted version came along and the only thing I miss is viper audio and cerebus. So I went the stock route and after it booted up, I signed in to my Google account and soon as the home screen came up I did a factory rest and haven't had 1 hiccup. The phone is fast as hell, the battery is about the same, my 4glte even seems faster than before when browsing using the stock browser, not chrome. The keyboard is great now as well as camera, and nothing bets the apps to sd. So in conclusion do a factory rest and forget about root IF you want all to run flawless. I'm sure there will be a way to regain root again. Happy flashing.......stock style.
