    Samsung Galaxy Note 3 receiving second stability update

    We're three weeks in since the Galaxy Note 3 was launched worldwide, and Samsung is already pushing out the second update to the device. Unfortunately, like the first one, the update is pretty minor at around 29MB, and doesn't have much in the way of a changelog, only mentioning “stability improvements” once again. If there was ever an award for useless changelogs, Samsung would be getting it twice in a row within a month's time.

    The update has the build number XXUBMJ3, and is currently rolling out in a few European countries (UK, Greece, Romania, etc.) both over-the-air and through Kies. You can either wait for the update's notification to show up on your device, force a check through the Settings » About phone » Software update menu, or head over to our firmware section and download the full firmware for your country and manually update. Fingers crossed that this improves Gallery performance a bit, that thing is painfully slow sometimes.
