its been 3-4 daya since i updated my samsung galaxy S3 to jellybean and i am really disappointed with the performance.
The latest update has slowed down the phn and the screen freezes very frequently. there is a huge delay in even opening the call logs,contacts or making calls.
i noticed while making/recieving calls the screen shows the pic and number of the previous call that was made/recieved from the phone...

a really huge degradation in performance

I m using Samsung S3 n recently got updated to AndroidJB
JB is better in some aspects...like
1-blocking mode
2-re-sizing of popup video
3-extended web browsing time
but we aspects more from android n Samsung team, need to fix the delay while i opened my contacts or call log menu or even switch between them.
Thansk
Otherwise its a superb phone n nice update i love both of them

I just got the jb update.. the ui seems too be faster but it takes more processing power... games don't feel fluid as in ics... the phone tends too freeze Some times.. nvr had this problem with ics... web browsing seems to have taken a step back.. over all project butter indeed made the ui better but it's taking to much processing power.. even with a 1.4 ghz quad qore the phone freezes... for me the jb update is a disappointment...

Battery after JB runs out much faster and phone sometimes freezes for 0,5 of second. I'm really disappointed with this update. I regret that I updated to JB. With ICS I had no problems

With the JB upgrade red flashing frame shows up at opening pages or applications (on both of our phones) this sucks!!! Also galery and other apps seem to be slower... Does anybody know a solution?
