Thanks for sharing.....

Attached is a screenshot of the changes. I would download, cold boot then install update and cold boot again after the install is complete. You will lose the power bar widget which provided easy access to GPS control. Not happy about that.

One thing I have noticed right away is a performance increase. Screen rotation is near instant and every thing feels much smoother. Others on another forum who were unable to update to Jellybean have now done so with success. This seems a worthy update.

Looks like the only changes were the kernel and BT

I feel that the touch screen sensitivity is much better. With the JB update, I lost a lot of screen sensitivity...enough to be a bit disappointed with the update. (moving letters in Words With Friends was slow and sludgy), and typing on the virtual keyboard had a delay or lag. Space bar often didnt work well, etc. Each stroke of a letter had to be deliberate. I think that this new update fixed all of that...certainly in Words. I haven't typed much, but I do think that is much better to...all very smooth now.

This update actually makes the prime finally useable. I never used it on ICS but its been a piece of crap until now

Don't know what they've done but I've not had a single reboot or app not responding message and my batterylife is better?

I don't care why but it does mean that I don't have to return it for being unusable :-)

Maybe there is hope for android after all.
