Just get it from sam mobile and flash it with odin, theres plenty resources if you google it on how to do it step by step... hope this helps

Actually after updating to 4.1.2 (I mean LL4, not LL7, I haven't updated to LL7 yet) battery backup has gotten worse. About 15-20%. On 4.1.1 I used to get 8-9 hours screen on time, but now I can't cross 7 hours. Still I will not downgrade as this new one comes with a new bootloader along with the 'Exynos sudden death' fix. I can live without an extra hour but I won't with a dead device, lol.
So it's a little advice from me to not downgrade to 4.1.1. Still, your device, your op.

As I said above, if fixes the 'Exynos Sudden Death', which has occurred in some S3.

Doesn't DLL4 fix this Exynos sudden death problem ?

I am still receiving some error like "updates happen as they are requested...Try later" ....something like this.

But the software update widget is showing "N".

Yeah, battery backup indeed is getting worse! Don't know if Samsung will listen and provide an update!

Nope, LL4 brought some new goodies, LL7 fixes the sudden death bug.

Yes, the battery backup is getting worse indeed. Disappointed

@hs65: Nope, LL4 came with some new goodies and 4.1.2. LL7 fixes the sudden death bug.

Try re-checking the battery after switching off the phone, removing the battery and putting it back in after a minute or so. I had a similar problem with an earlier upgrade and that got solved just by doing this.

My standby discharge rate (measured by BetterBatteryStats) is about 0.6% per hour with my Bluetooth headset+watch connected, with GPS, and Network on.

Can you post a picture of your battery usage with DMA6 ?

[ithehappy]

Reverted back to 4.1.1, had enough of 4.1.2!

[kranti]

After updating to 4.1.2 battery is draining very fast. Also S-voice is giving a message "Network error, try again".

[hs65]

Has any one received the DMB2 update for N7100 ?
If so, what is the difference noticed ?

[ithehappy]

Visibly NOTHING!
