Another Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich (ICS) firmware has been leaked for the AT&T Galaxy Note, courtesy of Brief Mobile who got their hands on the UCLD3 Android 4.0.3 firmware.

How to Install UCLD3 Firmware on AT&T Galaxy Note
- This procedure will wipe all your apps, data and settings (but it will NOT touch your SD cards, so don’t worry about those). Backup your Apps and important data — bookmarks, contacts, SMS, APNs (internet settings), etc. This Android backup guide would help you.
Important! Don’t forget to at least make a backup of your APN settings, which you can restore later if your data connection does not work after installing the ROM. Use the backup guide to find out how. - Make sure you have the drivers for the phone installed on your computer. You can download them here.
- Download the firmware package from any of the download links below.
Download Link 1 (mirror/alternative links here, if needed)
Filename: SGH-I717UCLD3-1FB30D08F1D2B2AAAECF49D262E8E707.exe - Double-click the SGH-I717UCLD3-1FB30D08F1D2B2AAAECF49D262E8E707.exe file to launch Odin.
- Power off the Note. Then, boot into download mode by holding down the Volume Down + Power buttons together. Then, connect the phone to the computer.
- After connecting the phone, you should get an Added!! message in Odin and the first box should say something like “0:[COM#]” (where # can be any number).
- Click Start to start the flashing process. After flashing is complete, the phone will reboot and boot into the UCLD3 Ice Cream Sandwich Android 4.0.3 firmware.
IMPORTANT Note: If ODIN gets stuck at some stage and doesn’t seem to be doing anything, do this — disconnect the phone from the PC, close ODIN, remove battery, re-insert it, and do the procedure again from Step 4. Same if you get a FAIL message in Odin.

Just updated to UCLD 3 after using UCLD 5 for two months. Very fast compared to the lag before. Thanks for the tutorial.

I tried
SGH-I717UCLF5 after UCLD 3 and that is the most stable ICS version I have encountered so far. I like that dialer has contacts tab now. No lag and very smooth so far. I may try to get rid off some AT&T bloatware.
