[Galaxy Grand Duos i9082 General] Paul_Days:
Official Firmwares for the Samsung Galaxy Grand DUOS GT-I9082L (Latin Variant)

LATEST BUILD

BUILD: 2212586

FIRMWARE: I9082LUBUBMK2

OS VERSION: 4.2.2

REGION: TTT - Trinidad & Tobago

Carrier: Unbranded

Notes:

- UNBRANDED/UNBLOATED!

- New "Galaxy GranD" Splash Screen

- Brighter Display

- Gradient Notification Bar

- Better/More Readible Text Layouts: Weather widget, Settings/Menus, Google Search bar

- Minimum UI & Sound changes (Notification/Pop ups, Keyboard sound, Gallery Swipe sound, etc.)

- Homescreen Lag Fixed

- Improved light effect

- GPU driver upgrade: Images now are displayed with higher resolution.

Samsung seems to have done some upgrades to the GPU, for in the past I'd load a High Resolution Wallpaper and it would pixelate, now, it looks great, the same goes with the lockscreen light effect, a bit smaller effect, buta noticeable higher resolution. Overall... this factory firmware feels like its a custom ROM. Touchwiz feels light, the notification pane is silky smooth. Nice. So far, the best one yet.

*** I AM EXPERIENCING PROBLEMS RESTORING TO THIS BUILD: I've always used Titanium to restore My Apps and Data, but this build, and for the first time, it completely lagged my device. So if you install this and want to restore, do not restore it's data.***

Install Update (1/10/2014): I figured out that by 'upgrading' from any of the previous build to this one, no such lag is present. A fresh install from a fully wiped phone has yielded several devices to lag, but after several tries as an "upgrade", no lag issues have presented.

FIRMWARE: I9082LVJUBMJ1

OS VERSION: 4.2.2

REGION: Brazil

Carrier: Tim Mobile

Note: This is a branded build for Tim Mobile-Brazil. It comes with Tim Media Bloatware as well as several Samsung ones as well. Performs well, though knowing from previous experiences, branded firmwares don't perform as good as unbranded ones. But, currently it's the only 4.2.2 released for the Galaxy Grand L.
