After such a long wait, Samsung has officially started rolling-out the Android 4.3 Jelly Bean update for Samsung Galaxy Note II in India and other countries as well. The update is live via over-the-air and also via PC application, Kies. The 4.3 Jelly Bean update is the first major update for Galaxy Note 2, since Samsung decided to skip the Android 4.2 update and move directly to Android 4.3.
The update is rolling-out in phases, so it might take hours to reach on your smartphone. The update is about 700.62MB in size, which is too huge, so we recommend you to use a good WiFi network for updating.
You can manually check for the update by going to Settings > About Phone > Software Update. If you can't get the OTA update, try updating via Kies.
You can find the change-log of the update below, along with few screenshots.
