Hi all

I was pleased to find my T mobile UK supplied note was offered a update today via kies.
It took a couple of tries and downloaded some extra files but i got there in the end !
I spent half the afternoon putting back all my shortcuts and bookmarks on the home pages but im happy with it so far.

One problem i have that my copilot navigation app no longer runs, does anyone have any advice on sorting this ?

Hi TH3ORY

What network are you on mate ?
I checked OTA when Kies offered me the upgrade but it said none available, Im on T mobile.
BTW My note came unlocked from T mobile and with no T mobile logos branding or apps & was the same after the upgrade, was it the same on your network ?

Hi Gloria, CSC stands for Country Sale Code, but all I know about it is that it's supposed to indicate which country your tablet is in. Apparently it's a Samsung thing. Hope that helps.

Yeas it basically means some firmwate differences specific to the countries. For example some countries may not allow netflix to be broadcast so the csc tells the market that netflix not be for download

Hi Gloria

I think that if you use Kies it wont matter where you are, if a upgrade is available that matches the country code of your phone it will let you have it.
Network OTA upgrades probably have the version for local phones.
Im no expert but that would make sense.

I finally got ics! I just got it the easy way, my favorite way, going to settings, software updates. I don't really see any noticeable difference .....the tablet was so good already and fast.

Hi Mark, mine got the update to 4.04 something like 3 Weeks ago and no side effect even though I'm not in my country or better in my phone country! My phone is from Germany originally . Actually now I think about, after the update my note lost the heavy German accent, it sounds more American!:-D

Hi Gloria,

Thanks for that, I didn't give much thought until after I had updated it!
I'm still really impressed with the phone, I hope your still happy with yours too.
