Thanks to savvy ninjas from SamMobile, we know that Samsung is entering the final test phase of the Galaxy Note Jelly Bean firmware test. Software version N7000XXLSA is based on Android 4.1.2, packing a number of new features and improvements like:

  • Improved performance and stability, thanks to Project Butter
  • Multi-View (Multi Windows Multitasking) like on the Note II
  • Page Buddy
  • New Additions in Notification Panel; Notification Panel can now be customized
  • Smart Rotation (Screen Display adjusts to your angle of sightings)
  • Continues Input in Samsung Keyboard (Like Swipe or Android 4.2 Keyboard)
  • Samsung’s Cloud services integration
  • Direct Call, Smart Stay and Pop-up Play Features
  • New Widgets From the Galaxy S III
  • 2 Home screen modes
  • New Notifications bar
  • Google Now

Again this is still in the pre-release stage and in that sense we don’t advise you to try it out as some things may not be working perfectly. If you do want to experiment, head over to SamMobile’s website for all the details how to proceed. Just don’t hold us responsible if something goes wrong. ;)
