s3 4.3 update

[Anonymous]

I was one of the 'lucky' people to catch the upgrade to 4.3. 

I've now disabled the smartstay & have been rebooting my phone after i have made any use of the GPS - this is keeping the battery life ok, but I still get dropouts when playing media files & the wake up is occasionally sluggish.

I'd be interested to know if anyone has heard any info other than the comment from samsung that they are investigating.

I'm undecided whether to reset my phone back to 4.1.2, although I have no idea how to do it, if it's going to be months until a fix then I guess it would be worth doing. Anyone heard ANYTHING? I'm not at all interested to hear about disgruntled users - these things happen & I'm sure the poor overworked developers are doing everything than can to fix the faults the test team failed to spot.

Not sure how you got that software....
You'd be better off flashing the proper UK one now it's released.

hmm is there good instructions anywhere, might give it a swirl if feeling brave? Bought the phone online, so it would seem they got stock from wherever they got there hands on it.

So there is no issue flashing the uk firmware over what is already on the phone, which I assume in my case is some European issue release? all very confusing 😕
