The build up to the launch of Kit Kat for the top tier Samsung devices, like the Galaxy S4 and Note 3 is getting intense and after leaking a test build of Kit Kat for the Galaxy S4 over the weekend, SamMobile have just announced they’ve acquired a new firmware build that means that Galaxy Note 3 owners can share in the Kit Kat fun.
After they tweeted over the weekend that the build they had for the Galaxy Note 3 was not ready, SamMobile have procured a more final build which they feel is ready for release. The changes are similar to that found in the Galaxy S4 Kit Kat firmware leak – Icons changed from Green to white, camera shortcut on lockscreen, slightly faster performance – and this build is believed to be feature complete, meaning that apart from some potential stability or security patches, this could be what is rolled out to end users beginning in the next 1-2 weeks.
