Samsung Galaxy Note II for Verizon getting Android 4.1.2 update

Folks that are toting the heavily branded Galaxy Note II on Verizon will be pleased to learn that Jelly Bean 4.1.2 is rolling out and if you did not receive a notification, you should be able to pull the update at your convenience.

The update is said to take between 30 and 45 minutes and includes a decent sized change log. Photosphere is not in the mix of things in case you were wondering, but a bit of bloatware is removed so it is not all bad (Zappos is removed).

The complete change log is available via the source link, but here are the highlights:

Download images via Enterprise Exchange email
Multi-window support for more applications (YouTube, Gmail, Facebook, Twitter, Amazon Kindle, Viewdini, Google Maps and Talk)
Search/Filter by name in dialer screen
Snooze option is set to “ON” be default in the alarm clock
Transfer content from your old device seamlessly with the Samsung Smart Switch app supported
Security patches, improved Exchange email syncing, and more
