You won't get notified anymore for updates. I am quite sure the great developers here will be quick in releasing it for us.

We just had a leak for ICS. So if anything it will be ICS. And don't expect official jb for about 2-3 months after international gets it. At&t is really slow with it.

Here's a quick Youtube video of the new Galaxy S3 update that will trickle out eventually for US carriers. This should answer most of your questions. It's only available for International as of now:

Update on Jelly Bean for the t989?

Anyone hear anything lately on the official update? Last I checked the i9100 was to receive it but nothing about the other GSII variants was mentioned. Dying for a stable JB rom WITH driver optimization. If any of you have used a Galaxy Nexus with JB you already know about Project Butter and all its 60fps glory. I for one cannot wait!

It's official. Samsung will be releasing JB for Hercules.

Hope they release 4.2 at least before march. But I really don't care about 4.2, I care about android 5. It will be ported by sasmung AFTER 4.2 firmware anyway.

Take a print: NO 4.2.X BEFORE JULY.

looking forward to get this JB release. I have T989D with Rogers, but I always have problem with CM10/10.1 Nighties build, I can not call in/out after use the Fongo app (free VOIP soft phone). Until a few days ago, I switched to this
SUPERLITE SUPERFAST OFFICIAL SAMSUNG JB4.1.2 w/rotation fixed
All problem are gone! battery is better than CM10.

Currently my carrier is Rogers, but I got my T989D from Telus last year, that's why I want this Telus JB release.
From what I gather Rogers' S2 LTE is equivalent to the AT&T Skyrocket. Their ROMs can be readily ported (not that I know how, but...) to T-Mobile T989, but with some issues, such as call echoing.

I am using this radio for Rogers network:
UCLK4 For I727/I727R [09-DEC-2012]
The sound quality is very good, not call echoing.
Or try this latest radio from the Rogers Official UXUMA7 Samsung Jellybean release:
UXUMA7 For I727/I727R [19-FEB-2013]
Man am I glad I started flashing ROMs. I was actually going to just wait for the official JB release when they claimed it would be here by late February/early March. Now I'm running ptmr3's Jedi CM build 3 with no issues. I don't think I'd even bother with the official update if it was released tomorrow. It would be a downgrade, lol.

You definitely right, however it will come handy to iron out some of the issues (call echo, etc) when it finally drops followed by the release of the sources.

Telus released the htc one s JB update today so hopefully we should expect it in april. (Also possible that it migt be a bit early as they dont really have any other phones lined up for an update)

Exactly, but if your running a cm10 aosp rom or 10.1 aosp you can enable noise suppression under call settings followed by a reboot and it will eliminate call echo. The sources of telco jb roms are most important as they will contribute to better performance in dev roms when the devs pick them apart for things like improved wifi and bluetooth, stable(r) kernels, network tweaks, better radios, etc.

I had replied to Cnexus 2 above your response in that thread. I actually posted in another thread beating on when it would be asked if we would get it.
My 4 year old OG epic 4g has CM10 running on it, a phone that stopped receiving updates at gingerbread... So hardware while it is a factor can still run latest android versions. It's all up the creative minds of developers.

The galaxy S3 will be getting 4.3 in October
But I don't think it will officially get 4.4. However does officially really matter, when you can just get it unofficially?
Also by the time carriers actually start releasing 4.4 the gs3 will be a third or even fourth tier phone in the series
Also I like the idea of KitKat it was Google one upping all those people who thought they could predict them in a creative way that also set up more advertising ect...
Eh, not holding my breath. I would rather get it unofficially IMO. Nice to brag to my friends or others
"here look, I'm running the latest of android"......and your not:laugh:

The Galaxy S3 will but ours won't. Always always always when they announce updates forthcoming they are talking about the international versions. It is then up to Samsung and the carriers to invest resources to put them on US phones. Typically this takes several months IF the carrier is interested. AT&T just got 4.1.2 and it is not a pushed update.
As for 4.4 I have no doubts about the S3 getting that version but you will be asking the same hypothetical question then about 5.0.
I could see the s3 getting Kitkat, but not for a while after all of the other phones. Just because the s3 was a very successful phone and they're still being sold like crazy. Anyways, I hope I'll have Kitkat on my s5 on release .

Galaxy S phones have always had two major updates (Galaxy S1 got Froyo and Gingerbread, S2 got ICS and JB. Since Android has had multiple versions of Jelly Bean, it is hard to say whether or not they think of Jelly Bean 4.1 and Jelly Bean 4.3 as two major updates for the Galaxy S3, but if not, then it is likely we will get Android 4.4 KitKat.

Since we don't even have a clue about a release date for 4.4 I would not venture a guess.
