Galaxy pop update ics

If it does not, check you language settings and voice recognizer settings. I updated to ICS 4. There were a few glitches which I shall come back to later. My immediate concern is this. How do you access the browser settings now after the update? When playing in pop-up mode, you can go back in full screen mode by double-clicking on the video.

The firmware lists I found online state that only 4. And the pop-up video play is a feature of 4. Thank you for correcting me. Yes, today I tried again, it works properly. Just tap it and it will continue. Maybe I was drunken that day when I wrote the post. Julien ICS update could improve my Battery performance??? On my note i setted a company exchange mail account. When I try to to get access to folders i can see only: inbox, outbox, drafts, trash, etc.. I cannot get inside inbox and inside each of subfolders.

Anyone can help me? Thank, Andrea. For India 4. I just updated to 4. The pop-up play is only for the in-stock video player. Did you try to start the Video Player, then play a video, then in the top right, you should see a button as shown in the image.

Yes, Samsung did not include it for certain regions but have not explained why. Hi, I had upgraded to 4. Do you know if this bug is resolve in 4. I am not aware of this issue. Sometimes, after major update, you need do a factory reset to remove some incompatible settings or caches.

I have a question, I cannot find the Popup player icon in the stock video player and I have upgraded to 4. One thing I just noticed today, was when pressing the power key when watching a video a lock icon appears on the screen which prevented me from using any of the onscreen touch controls. Is this something new? Or was it something I just never noticed before. Any help is much appreciated, thank you.

My apologies if I am making mistakes on posting. Please let me know. Some users reported the ICS 4. Anyway, the location of the icon is shown in the first screenshot in the post. No, it is not new and it is a feature for some time in TouchWiz. When you are playing video, you can lock the screen for your video.

This is to prevent interruption of your video. Why on Earth would Samsung do that??!! I see there are a lot of experienced Galaxy Note users here so I would like to ask about the In-Call volume issue.

The volume of mic seems to be very low. The volume key should work for in-call volume. When you clicked volume down, did the green bar appear on the screen? If it appears and responds, but there are no changes in volume, you probably need go to Samsung service center to reset the levels.

They will put your phone into service mode then adjust the levels. Someone told me this also works for mic at the same time. Sounds unlikely, but I never test it. Burst shot 2. Taking a still within a video recording. Or are those camera features hardware related? Action shot can be used if you want to take a few pics continuously.

Anyway, the camera sensor in Galaxy Note is not so good and is always slow. Galaxy Note cannot do this as I know. Where did my wallpaper go??? After installing the latest version, the wallpaper was gone. It was live making rain, if the weather was rain, dark clodes, sun, etc. And it had a wave on the beach, really nice. And I miss it!!!! Anyone who knows how to find it again? Must be a Samsung app, but cannot locate it…. Thanks for your reply.

And even after the last upgrade — 3 days ago, it is there. But the wallpaper has disapared. And it is also not in the availible wallpapers you refer to from menu. Even not possible to find it by search in all android wallpapers. I downloaded the ICS 4. One thing I was looking forward to was the improved web browser with the possibility of opening 16 tabs. However I still can open only 8 tabs. Yes, I tried, and I also can get only 8 tabs. I will correct the post until I find a way to get 16 tabs.

Thank you for pointing this out. Hallo, I just have bought brand new Galaxy Note and upgraded it to Android 4. It randomly turns off and freezes usually within 5 minutes. I have made few factory resets and wiped cache partition. Did not help.

I did not root. I can not believe that this is hardware problem. Can You help? Freeze or automatic shutdown can be a serious problem. It usually is caused by hardware e. As you already did factory reset and it is new, so it seems the problem was not caused by personal settings. Good luck. Had similar problem on the auto shut down after updating the firmware ICS….

Problem still unsolved after doing the following; — Updated the firmware — Hard reset and wipe out the whole memory and restore to factory default — Replace a new mother board. It could be also caused by battery. Did you try your Note with a different battery? You may also clean the connector when you remove the battery, you can find the the metal part between battery and your phone on your phone.

I am having the same problem. Have you solve it? It is better to have the note checked in local Samsung service center, if changing a battery does not solve the issue. Same here …when connected to USB cable not problem at all…. Then I exit the app to desktop,CPU is still running in background. Is it a bug? No, as I know, it should be ok.

As long as your phone can enter Deep Sleep state normally, it is nor necessary to worry about the running processes. Android is optimized to cache programs.

Android will fully close it release the RAM only when the system or other apps need more ram. But after I turn Chrome off,my phone still keeps warning. Nothing happen if I turn it off in the background. I have problem with S Note when I try to insert picture to create idea note. What should I do? Also, you may to close some recent apps by long press Home button, then swipe left or right of recent apps to close them. Another thing you can try is to clear the S Note cache and data settings—applications—downloaded—S Note, press clear data and clear cache.

Please backup your notes to your PC using Kies before doing this. As S Note is part of the UI, you cannot uninstall and re-install it. Yes, factory reset will erase all your data, but apps from Google Play store can be backed up settings—Automatic restore.

Dear Galaxy Note, problem still exists. Document restored after application closed, again and again. I did all you said but no change. Not sure. If possible, you may visit local Samsung service center. Because this is a bundled software, the warranty should cover this. I cannot turn off text-to-voice speech. As I know, only when in driving mode, the Note will read the messages.

You may try to turn off driving mode, then reboot the phone to see whether the problem is there. Other than the driving mode, I have no clues on what else may read all incoming message. Maybe some installed apps? If nit is really annoying, you may call local Samsung service center and they may have a correct solution. Notify me of follow-up comments by email.

What is the OS loaded? GB, ICS? No, you cannot use both. You can choose only one of them: swipe, face un;lock, pin, passcode. If you cannot find these S Memos, you can get from any other Galaxy Notes.

In s note I cannot add clipart. States document restored after application closed. Actually, you may try to update. If you updated your note through other methods, you may get wrong ROM.

If you manually disable WiFi, it should not start automatically. But if it is turned off because of entering sleep mode, when you awake your phone, it will try to connect to available WiFi automatically.

For GPS, several apps e. You can go to settings—location services, disable GPS satellites. Then if GPS is disabled, it will not start automatically, and the app that require it will ask you to start it manually. When i closed the gps it closed but wifi is not closing.

You may try to do a factory reset to see whether it helps. Please back up all your data before resetting your Note. I did factory reset nothing is happend same problem has been occured again Thanks…thank u very much. During installation, it suddenly rebooted and prompt me that it fails to update to ICS 4.

I tried to update it a lot of times and it resulted to the same failure. Now, is there anyone here who can give me some advice or perhaps a decent explanation on why this update always result to failure? You may try to reset your phone, then update again. Please back up your date before resetting your Note.

Settings—Backup and reset. The failure can be cause by some caches or leftovers of previous updating attempts. I did reset GN Backed it up first through Kies. I tried to update it to 4. You need make sure your phone is for Philippine market.

This time Kies finally works. I also reset my GN. But still the 4. Kies recognize the 4. Now, I just want to know how to determine the region that correspond to my GN. And also, if you have an updated list of countries or region that still stuck into the 4.

It should be soon. So, you should get the ICS 4. Still I am facing the same batter drain issue. Very much disappointed with the update. Very important, you need check whether your phone can enter deep sleep state. If not, you then track the causes. Just wait a few days. You should get this 4. I got the update 4. What precautions do I need to take before upgrading my note.

Of course, backing up your datat before updating is always a good practice. I think I have another problem with my Note. Is that ok? To update now or to wait for some users opinions. Normally, update will fix some bugs, and of course may introduce a few new ones.

Otherwise, software engineers will has nothing to do. Did you try to use the in-stock video player? Other players may not have this pop-up play feature. Anyone else upgrade his Note from France? Mine is Hongkong 4. Most people like the ICS, although there are a few problems. No perfect software update, given the lifespan of a phone is only years.

Please note, this site is a Galaxy Note user community users help users , and has nothing to do with Samsung. We, just like you, are ordinary Galaxy Note Users.

My unit updated to ICS 4. My rom is Open German. How come I am not getting the update? Did you check through Kies from your PC? Can anyone confirm if it is released or not. Desperately waiting for pop up play.. Actually a few players in Play store can do this for quite long time.

The update adds this feature to the stock video player not for third party players. My SIM was used in my ex 2 phones : iPhone 4 and 4S without any problems and the adapter i got from my carrier store. At the moment i read something about CSC and the eligibility to get a future update. At the bottom of the page i get 2 options: Install and Cancel. What should i do? Hello again. Like i said in that screen with CSC code, at the bottom appears 2 option: install and cancel.

What if right now i dont have a csc code on my note. Are you sure i am not allowed to install it? I mean if it were already installed i should have 2 options: uninstall and cancel. Dont know.

Waiting for a reply. You must have one. If not, Kies cannot recognize your phone. This CSC code must match the firmware as well. There is no uninstall option. Install or cancel, just choose cancel if you do not want to mess up your phone. Changing CSC code will wipe your personal settings and data like factory reset. Ok then. The only thing i can imagine is that the store from where i purchased the Note get suppies from France. Thanks again.

Thx, this beta vlc version i used, its not good, not recommand one, which memory card can play p bluray songs? I gonna buy sandisk ultra extrmee class 10 x or x, its is ok. Usually Class 10 should be sufficient for full HD. Of course, it would be more expensive. If you are going to buying from local shop, you can always try it first in most places. A good adapter should not cause problems. Anyway, you may try a normal SIM card, instead of the micro sim. Hello guys. I have a problem with my Note.

I was an iOS user untill i bought this Note 2 weeks ago so i dont know many things about android. I apreciate if anyone answer and give me a link where i can find general processes of android like fuel alerted and more. You need read the source code in that case.

Also i dont have any ideea how to open that source code. Sorry for spam. Android provides list of API for developers to access the system resources. All manufacturers will must release the source code for each device released. This is quite different from iOS.

If this does not help, it is very likely a hardware issue, and you need visit Samsung service center to get a replacement. Well were to start, version 4. The graghic did improved. I think my phone choque on it. It so bad now and i meen really bad. Never haves any problem for months and then that update arrived. LTE to 4G go crazy , text curser jump every where, stuck with new used less application tbat consume battery life like crazy. Need to restart often.

Erased all my bookmark, changed phone rang. Need to recharged midday and night no games ash video. And more I. If the problem is so serious, you can easily ask for a replacement.

As long as you are using the official firmware, Samsung should repair or replace within the warranty period. I did contact my cell phone provider. Next week I should in contact from programming source system they need to know the problem. So far all option, application, back ground fiction haved been turn off or uninstall. But I guess it should be available within one or two weeks. Currently, this ICS 4. Nordic countries and Austria. I have a problem with my galaxy note. What is happening with my phone?

Thanks in advice. It seems your SIM card may have some problems. Maybe your area has no signal for that operator, or the network type is not supported unlikely. Did you check with the operator? If this just happened the first time, you may just reboot your phone. You may also check whether you can set the operator Settings—Wireless and network—more—Network operators.

Are there any plans for future implementation of BLN backlight notification on the stock roms for the Galaxy Note? I was also wondering how can the pop-up player feature be activated and if it is supported by mx player. But most are for S2. Once it is available, it should be available through OTA. But Kies is more reliable. Thank you sire, more questions hope you can help me on this one.. All your apps will be untouched. But it is a good idea to backup your data before the updating. So far no serious issues and satisfied… Question sire: 1 Is it safe for me to factory data reset my just upgraded galaxy note?

Factory reset only wipe your settings and apps. You can also enable Automatic restore settings—backup and reset if you want to automatically re-install the apps from Google Play store only. So backup before doing this. You are still on ICS after the factory reset. Reset means reset your ICS. Not sure. Usually, there are no problems. More inquiries.. Are you familiar with these isssues sire, can you give me an idea whats causing this and a possible conservative interventions..

It sounds like hardware issue. You may try to adjust the brightness to automatic to see whether there are any differences. If you can show them to Samsung service guys, they should fix or give you a replacement. Twlauncher is TouchWiz i. If the problem repeats, you can try to go to settings—Applications—All-TwLauncher, then press clear data. Hi does any one know whether samsung will release jb 4.

There should be no issues if previous update failed, especially during the download stage. It is better to update through Kies. I have been waiting since the past 15 days. Thank u. Also, I just got the info no way to confirm, as Samsung even declined to confirm the availability of Jelly Bean update for Galaxy Note up to now , the Jelly Bean 4. Hopefully, we will get this update by the end of this year, or in the worst scenario, in Q1 You may have to wait a few days.

The target deadline is by the end of August, but very likely you will get the update within one or two weeks. Hey, My note has rooted when i saw a video on youtube. Thank you. If Kies can tell you the latest version of the firmware and the version of your current firmware, very likely, your phone can still be updated through Kies once the update for your phone is available.

Most likely, after the update, you will have to root it again. When 4. Jelly Bean Android 4. Friends m having the international version of sammy galaxy note can i get some info about 4. I have this note with ICS 4. Or I must downgrade first to Gingerbread and then to 4. It depends on whether your CSC is changed or not. You simply test this on Kies on your PC. If Kies can tell you the latest firmware version and your current firmware version, you should be able to get update automatically.

Currently, the ICS 4. The information I have is all regions should get the ICS 4. For India, it is one of the key markets for Samsung, the update should be soon. I rooted my Galaxy Note.

Can you please tell me whether i will receive official firmware update through OTA or Kies by automatic updates OR i need to update by manual in my rooted galaxy note. If you connect your phone to PC and Kies can tell you the latest firmware version and the version on your phone, you can update normally. However, if you know how to unroot, it is a good practice to unroot before updating. De-select everything in developers options, shutdown your phone, remove the battery, wait a min, put the battery back, start the phone.

Could you inform me of the possible date when the ICS 4. So, maybe you have to wait a few days. For any software, after a major update, the following minor update is precious as a lot of bugs will be fixed. Major update is for features and frameworks; while minor update usually is targeting at bugs. When you start a new note, the third icon is Productivity Tools, long press it, you will give a popup toolbox, you can find formula, shape match and hand writing to text functions.

When will be the 4. Did you use the in-stock player or third party player? My Note never has such issues. Maybe a simple reboot will solve the issue. Magnet may affect some sensors, but usually it should be negligible because the magnetic field usually is quite weak.

Actually, the Nexus 7 even has a hidden magnetic sensor, possibly for future usage or for a smart cover. For micro sd card, both class 4 and 10 work with Galaxy Note. For mobile phones, the class is not so important.

Even for shooting photos, the Galaxy Note is quite slow in image processing, and the camera sensor is not as fast as that in S3 and HTC One X , so the slowness cannot be solved by a faster SD card. Usually class 4 and above is sufficient for HD video recording. Anyway, it depends on your budget and whether you get the best value from capacity or performance. Class 4 is good enough for storing files, take photos as the camera in Galaxy note is slow and HD video recording.

There are no issue in playing it at all with the in stock video player. You just download the MP4 video to your Note, no installation involved. The size of the P one is about 1GB.

After downloading, you can play it on your Note. This feature was debuted on Galaxy S3. Now it is on Galaxy Note. In last 12 hours, the wake lock is only 1 min. This should not affect your battery life, and your phone should be able to enter Deep Sleep state can be read from CPU Spy.

Usually assuming you are not listening to music or radio for long time , as long as the difference between awake time and screen on time is not larger e. It looks your phone works properly, and you should not have battery issues. Most of the time, you just look at the difference between screen on and awake.

In your case, only 10 mins difference in last Also, you can find your phone was in deep sleep mode for almost 22 hours in last This is a good sign that your phone works properly.

Your phone was not connected to mobile network for 59min 23s. Maybe your mobile network coverage is not good. It was not caused by any apps. So far, no battery issues actually, I got battery issues once in one or two weeks before the update, so I can only draw conclusions after at least one week. Probably, this update fixed some wake lock bugs.

Usually, such minor update following the major update is very useful and may fix a lot of bugs in the major update. It is really sad to see Samsung releasing ICS updates for version 4.

What is going on Samsung Australia? Now just a few countries are left behind ICS update. Probably this is related to slow local testing. Same problem here in Egypt, ICS is not available at Egypt yet for note although it has been released for SII, and no one knows when will it be available?

I think ICS 4. Did you check through Kies? They can update for you I believe. The reason you get this message is usually one of the following: 1. This can be messed up by some vendors or some parallel importers.

Computer issues. You may try to uninstall Kies and then re-install the latest version. Sir my region is kuwait, and i also didnt got any update but my frnds are also here found update and they updated , we baught our note frm same region so why he got update 4. We have the same problem. I hate Android 2. For south american, as I know the delay is probably due to local testing. I have a galaxy note free not freeded , and I still wait the upgrade in Argentina too.

That make me think that the problem come from Samsung and not from the local phone providers. The announcement of the 4. But for now.. I feel a little discrimination I hope I mistaken that but i wish the oportunity to decide what to do. The phone was tooooo expensive in my cantry about dolars. Actually the only phone got Jelly Bean 4. Maybe by the end of the end of this year, there will be a lot of Jelly Bean phones. For the delay of update in some regions, the cause can be very complicated.

I would suggest you to stock up with ginger bread. Better do not upgrade your note to ics. I am from India I updated my note and facing loads of problems and bugs. It is not available for India yet. Currently, only users in Germany, Singapore and Malaysia and a few selected carries in the middle east got the update.
