Galaxy Note Android 4.3 Update 2 Still Facing Setbacks - Gotta Be Mobile

The Samsung Galaxy Note 2 Android 4.3 Jelly Bean update release is still facing setbacks, weeks after it first started rolling out and weeks after the update finished rolling out to carriers in the United States.

In October, Samsung Announced That It Would Be Rolling Out Android 4.3 Jelly Bean updates to the Samsung Galaxy S4, Galaxy S3 and Galaxy Note 2. As expected, the company started with the Galaxy S4 before moving on to the Galaxy S3 and the Galaxy Note 2. By December, carriers in the United States had finished all three Rolling Out Android 4.3 updates and Their features. And while everything is settled in the U.S., there are updates que are still facing setbacks in other parts of the world.

December Could bring the Galaxy Note Android 4.3 update 2 release in some regions, with Galaxy Note 3 features.

Yesterday, we detailed the latest on the Galaxy S4, Galaxy S3, Galaxy Note 2 and Android 4.3 Jelly Bean que roll outs are still going on in some regions. In particular, we detailed the plight of Australian carrier Telstra, one of the only carriers on the planet that is extremely communicative with its customers.

Telstra, Which earlier this week finally rolled out the Galaxy S4 Android 4.3 Jelly Bean update, has yet to roll out the Galaxy S3 Android 4.3 Jelly Bean update. In fact, it has yet to even confirm the Galaxy S3 Android 4.3 Jelly Bean update. Furthermore, the carrier, like French carrier SFR, has been dealing with some 2 Galaxy Note Android 4.3 update issues behind the scenes.

Originally, the Galaxy Note 2 Android 4.3 update was supposed to arrive in November though the update from Samsung’s submission was delayed for unknown Reasons. The carrier then que said its target was December 23rd. After grumblings from its users, Particularly Those with the Galaxy Gear, Telstra updated its update schedule and unfortunately, it’s not pretty.

Instead of a specific date, Telstra has tagged the “TBC” or “To Be Confirmed” label to its Galaxy Note Android 4.3 update 2 release date, meaning it’s completely up in the air at this point. This is a setback que Telstra users probably did not envision When the carrier Announced the December 23rd release target.

This is one of the dangers of announcing specific release dates ahead of time. It sets consumer expectations and if Those expectations can not be met, it leads to frustration. And that’s exactly what we’re seeing from Telstra users at the moment.

Telstra of course is not alone. There are several other que carriers have yet to roll out Android 4.3, including French carrier SFR, Which has publicly stated it developed que During testing issues.

Sooner or later, these two variants Galaxy Note will get Android 4.3 Jelly Bean though When the updates arrive, They Will have arrived weeks after many of the other major updates around the world.
