    Folders look cool too. Gets away from the iPhone look.
    Tip: if you want a particular icon to show at the front then open the folder and move that icon into first position.

    Yep just got JB on three a few mins ago.

    Everything ok so far. ..
    Wait, cant get google voice to speak to me. All volumes are up and voice is downloaded.
    Anyone know whats up there?

    Set your language to English (US) and it should work. You can also use English (UK), but I prefer the US laydee voice.

    When your moving widgets around the other icons now move and make room for it before you drop it in position... Settings and blocking mode is cool, if you dont want to recieve call or text notifications of certain people...

    On three, updated this morning and yes, am having that issue also.
    A quicker work around in the meantime however is to switch mobile data off, then on again, via the notification bar, but that doesnt resolve the issue (ie it gets mobile data up and running again but it appears to drop off later on.
    Gonna have a snoop around and see what could be doing this.

    Overall nice update, few nice new features etc and fair play three, was expecting a longer wait.

    yep got it with three too and I was on 4.04 also, now up to 4.1.1. I knew when I got the "installation failed" message on my phone this afternoon that it was trying to install an update. I don't know if this is just me, but you have to plug it in with usb to computer and use the Kies software to do it. Takes about half an hour.

    hmm i just updated to dlJ1 and my splashscreen is three.co.uk XD
    http://www.hotfile.com/dl/176513786/4813ff1/I9300XXDLJ1_I9300H3GDLJ1_H3G.zip.html

    it is the most recent release though so ill keep it unless theres more bloatware :)

    its also the euro one, so after this you should be able to receive any updates also (correct csc means update checks will work i think...im on DLIH and its letting me check for updates, just says no newer available, as O2 are slow)
    if you want the specific three release it should be up on sammobile
    http://www.sammobile.com/firmware/
    easy enough navigate. even if you install an older one, it wont do anything.

    +1 on that too.

    Is this just a 3 prob?

    Random slow downs for no reason and no auto jump back to 3G (or h/+) makes me wish they did more testing...

    Appears to be ok now. Switches easily from H+ to wifi and back again.
    Did notice alright that the battery was declining more rapidly

    Can't say the same. Battery life seems grand and the system is significantly faster.

    i will say i was experiencing battery issues when i updated to jellybean. i had to uninstall a certain app and after i reinstalled it i dont have any issues.
    used betterbatterystats to see what was causing wakelocks on the phone, and it showed Fotmob was causing a rediculous amount of wakeup time, so i uninstalled, but kinda use the app a lot so reinstalled and its fine since. my guess is some of you guys cud have similar.
    as for network issues...goodluck i guess
