If you come from ICS, it will be like a new phone. If u can, made a backup using titanium backup which you need a root.

suggestion
I suggest to list your apps and to back them up even if told that the upgrade is going to keep them.
Better safe than sorry

Better audio - Beats audio

Hi, I was just wondering if anyone has tried to install Beats audio
play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.motioncoding.beats
It should run even under stock firmware (root needed) and it's supposed to increase audio performances. I'm not sure it can be easily uninstalled, and someone says it could damage the system.
Opinions about it?
Thanks.

The one in the play store isn't working on our devices.
The one that works is here.

Choose the beatsaudio 5.1 (SGS2). It is a zip file that can be flash with the stock recovery, so root is not needed.
Remind you, when the zip done, it is not reversible. So backup your stuff before flashing it. If you want it uninstalled, you have to flash the stock rom via odin.

Do you think the quality really increases? Does it works under Ics stock Samsung firmware?
Thanks.

There is no official Samsung version of JB for the GT7+. I don't think anyone knows whether there ever will be one.
The previous poster was referring to aorth's port of CM10. The first post in that thread gives download links and instructions.
I finish download jb.. Can use odin?

Look at the instructions in his post...
Flash from cwm recovery, which can also be found in development section. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=29077817.

Yes, and after installing CWM Recovery, use it to make a full backup before you flash CM10. (This is in aorth's thread too. I'm just emphasizing it.)
Copy the backup onto your PC or onto an SD card different from your everyday SD card. Keep it safe. If anything goes wrong or you ever want to return to stock ICS, the backup makes it very easy. Without a backup it can be very difficult.

It took 8 months for us to get ICS so I'm assuming the same amount of time or longer to get JB, maybe June 2013.

restore some backup files using cwm..?
if you dont have any backup when you are in GB stock rom...
use the one click lumins guide...
So could I use someone else's backup and get back to GB without using one click because I was almost certain you need a computer to use one click since I'm on JB.

When I lock the screen and unlock it works back again but in some games it happens repeatedly... I really need help! btw sorry for my bad english!!

Instead of making a new thread every 6 hours maybe you should start one thread for all of your issues.
To help you..you need to help us. What ROM are you using? What version of that ROM? What recovery did you use to flash? This might help you to get the answer you are looking for with just a little more info.

How did you flash? Custom recovery or Odin? For the limited time that I was on stock JB 4.1.2 I did not have the issues you are. Best bet would be to backup all your files to a computer and Odin back to stock. That usually sorts out alot of issues.

I was on 4.2.2 cyanogen (i think that's the correct name) and then used Odin to go back to 4.1.2. I have this problem for a while... It happened a couple of times before going to 4.2.2 but not as frequent as now... It's really hard to use my phone without having to lock it and reopen the app I was using...

So it only happens when you use a certain app? If so..I would say the app is causing this and it may not be fully compatible.

Wipe cache and dalvik cache..maybe fix permissions to. If that does not help...Odin back to stock again. Sounds like something got borked in your flashing process (in other words user error).

Got the same thing just 5 minutes ago.. installed it.. anybody have a changelog?
Here's the full changelog from Samsung's site:
Android 4.3 OS upgrade
Samsung Galaxy Gear compatibility
Group Play 2.5
Samsung Apps
Knox
Drag and drop to uninstall or disable applications
Call reliability improvements
The new update is build number 1337UCUEMK2 – the last one was 1337UCUEMJ9. So Samsung had to change something, but the very short turnaround time indicates it wasn't anything major (some users reported keyboard issues on MJ9). The update is pretty hefty at 719MB if you're coming from the Android 4.2 software. There is also a patch from MJ9 to MK2 for people who got the last OTA that clocks in at just 28.07MB. Begin hammering the update button – no promises, though.

Any way to keep root and safestrap?
Wow! This is so new! It's not like it hasn't been discussed for days already!
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using xda app-developers app
Those of us on MF3 who rooted cannot accept the OTA correct? WE would have to unroot first?
I can say this. It was no ordinary update even though coming from the mj9 one it was only 28.07mb's. It did something to the phone to finally take away the lag. I think Samsung finally got the phone working right. I'm pretty happy with my s4 now.

So I came from an rooted MF3 install, but I have done a factory reset to try and get the update. Even now, I can't seem to get a response from hitting the "Software Update" button. Does anyone have any suggestions? Confused as to why I can't get it to report to me...
You need to use this thread for 4.3

You don't expect people to actually read before they post do you? I mean, it's only common sense and the XDA rules. Why would most of these people do something smart like that? 90% of the threads are from people that either didn't or can't read.

Or
You can side load the mj9 update and hit software update in settings.

Me too. Even when I take a picture with the galaxy gear, they show almost instantly on my GS4 gallery.
Also, bluetooth is like "smart".
I was having problems connecting my cars bluetooth to my GS4 and at the same time to my gear and each device to know what I needed it for, and now they now somehow.

Can we root if we updated to 4.3 mk2?
I still keep getting software update interrupted, going to have to use other means to upgrade I guess.

This new update seems to have fixed the messaging app, before it was all messed up on the first 4.3 update.
Also another thing that seems fixed is the developer options, I would turn off all animations but it wouldn't stick as they would turn back on on their own.
