Thanks again to FoxKat and Company for their step by step downgrade to .211 then upgrade to Jellybean.
Is easy to follow root/keep root or in my case not rooted.
So what's GBU of this upgrade.
Good
4G connectivity is great
WiFi is manic to keep connected in my case saves a lot of power
Love the notification slide down
The phone is faster and snapper
Chrome has only crashed once not daily
Battery does seem to be better
Day to day menu choices are better
Bad
WiFi is manic to keep connected in my case saves a lot of power (the aggressive nature can get annoying we a have WiFi at work it is for customers only but my phone keeps trying connect even when I have Smartactions turning WiFi off. There is a menu toggle in to shut this off.)
Sleep mode is gone ( used it a lot when I was away from battery.)
My Lapdock doesn't format correctly, it seems to be stuck on phone mode.
There are still a few pauses and times when it wont accept key presses
It only has bedside and charging in dock mode, can't choose your own apps.
(fortunately the bedside dock works fine and dims down but is still visible to my un-bespectacled eyes.)
I can honestly say I've got my phone back and I'm very happy with Jellybean on my Maxx.
I think I should FDR and start over with my crazy app addiction and only put back the apps I use.
