BTW I took the leap and installed the Polish Jelly bean rom, can't be bothered waiting for the official voda JB rom, seems smoother, especially with Apex launcher and pressing the home button to show all home screens - this is a lot smoother whereas it was 2-3 FPS before !

Got to love the constant 60 FPS in Jelly Bean!  :evil:

Setting up Now and noticed the keyboard is also slightly altered, overall it's a minor update but gives everything an extra layer of polish.

And in other news Google released 4.1.2 today!  Wonder how long out takes for that to hit non-nexus devices? !

It's a minor update, but I bet it'll take a while for OEM's to push it out and part of the reason I can't wait to get a Lumia 920 / 8X or Ativ S with Windows Phone 8. With all those phones using the same internals as each other (for the most part) and MS's control over the updates rather than OEM control all phones *should* get patches / updates the same day as other phones from other OEM's. Google REALLY need to sort it out, 18 months ago I thought they'd have cracked the slow update issue by now - guess I was wrong.

If I did want to change the CSC what would I have to change it to?

There are loads of codes in CSC change...
