Our SG3 will upgrade to Jelly Bean 4.1 in October

We have both european SG3 as well as US-ATT SG3 models. Our EU carrier has notified the 4.0.4 version will be updated to 4.1 next month, Oct 2012.
What is the published US-ATT schedule for update from 4.0.4 to 4.1 ?

You think that a&t
is going to tell you the date ahead of time?
Dream on. Plan on at least 3 to 4 months after euro release.

I second this. AT&T will be busy putting in their bloat**** into the rom...
And that is why I'm using the JB leak right now. It's very stable and I haven't had any problems so far.

Says the fact that it's been "coming soon" for a nice amount of time now and we haven't seen anything. The S3 mini has it, and we don't yet. That's ridiculous.

I gave up the wait in September and switched from ICS to JB based off the TMO and Sprint leaks. Even with the bugs and random issues, I like it and don't really want to switch back. Now I have to impatiently wait for an official release so the rest of the bugs are worked out.

Too many of you have ADD....The phone has only been out since June/July ...Im riding the stock rom till JB comes out, which I will bet will be November. After that I can mess with custom roms, but for now, too many bugs and TW is not bad, on JB I figure it will be even better so will hang with it till I get bored. You guys that already jump around from rom to rom are the type to ditch the S3 when the Notes 2 is out or when the S4 is out in June/July next year anyways.
I will admit I am ready for JB though already.

I disagree, I like TW enough. But I feel I have more control over my device without it using another launcher. I doubt I will go to the Note 2, 4.8" is pretty big - but I went with this phone over the original Note because the 5.3" was a little awkward. I won't upgrade to the S4 next year either. I'm not going to pay full price. Just because I jump around from ROM to ROM doesn't necessarily translate to jumping around from one phone to the next.
As for JB, I'm glad to be running it. It's pretty smooth.

I understand this is a completely biased statement as I only have one perspective on the subject, but as an AOKP JB user since i got the GS3 (about a month) I have not run into any real issue with bugs, instability, or anything otherwise not expected from a stock ROM. Anyone who is 'waiting' on JB has already missed their ride, although there are hourly shuttles to catch you up with the rest of us....hop aboard.

Question for all you experienced custom ROM installers: is there a custom JB rom in the wild that has everything working? I've been thinking about JB since it came out, and now I am reading that it might be another few months before we have the official T-Mobile version. I am finally tempted to root and do a custom rom.
So, is there a fully working, stable Cyogen Mod 10 out there? I am not interested in nightly builds. I would just like the experience one gets from a Nexus phone that is running vanilla JB.
Thanks!!

I say T-Mobile because the article is specifically referencing them. I've gone through all of the recent roms created by great devs like DJIntrigue which seem to be quite ready for prime time so it doesn't make much sense that there needs to be more "months" for a final release. We're not talking usability here as I assume most of us root our devices but it would be great to have faster availability of the latest Android firmware in case we wanted to run that.

The problem is carriers want to add in their own apps and "test" the update for compatibility with their networks...not to mention the majority of users aren't text savvy (or rooted, for that matter) and the carrier doesn't want to be flooded with "I updated mai fone and it's no worky no mo'" calls....
We may want faster availability, the carriers want people to pay upgrade fees (and/or buy devices outright) and less headaches....

Dj's and Wild's jb roms are fairly heavily modified. The leaks they are based on are still buggy and horrible on battery life.
I for one would much rather wait a few more months and get a solid release.
Besides, I'm willing to bet that most who are getting impatient waiting for the official release will wind up going back to custom roms within a couple of days anyway.
Plus, with how good Frosty and XquiziT are, you could pretend its based of the official release and be just as happy! (If I wanted to blame anyone it'd be them for raising the bar and forcing Tmobile and Sammy back to development!)
I honestly don't get all the impatience. With how hyped some folks are getting over it I can only see them being disappointed! Then we get to read all about how lame Sammy and Tmobile are for not taking the time to make it better!

Who cares JB isnt a big update over ICS anyways. I have a i9300 and the official JB update is weak. if youve used Frosty Jb you wont see a big difference

Blame tmo samsung sent the update 3 weeks ago smh
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium

Three weeks ago and no leak?

No leaks anymore from samsung period! For any device.
It'd have to be leaked from tmobile for us to get it now.
That's how I understand it anyway. If you follow the build versions, there would've probably been about 9 other leaks by now, had they kept their systems up like they were.
(Last leak was LI8, new ota is LIJ) 9 builds in between. Also I'm guessing the jb update must not actually be ready. (Maybe they found something they didn't like)
They seem to be doing what I expected with having another official ICS update before JB.
I could be wrong of course. Time will tell.

In addition to Jelly Bean, the update will also deliver new features to Samsung's TouchWiz interface, as well as enhancements being applied to the smartphone's camera. You'll be able to apply several filters to still and video shots, utilize a low-light mode and combine separate video clips.
I dont see a low light mode anywhere on my i9300...

4.1.1 is out and, contrary to what Samsung said, the update is available on Kies and OTA! Yes, OTA is here!

​
Anonymous Source: Samsung's AT&T GS3 Jelly Bean User Trials started in May and have been completed; we're just waiting on AT&T. The ROM should be in its final stages of testing soon.
Jelly Bean Version: Most likely 4.1 Before 11/28, chatter from multiple official AT&T sources stated 4.2 (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6) However, then AT&T quietly released the above Support Article, which stated 4.1.The Support Article is the most concrete evidence we have, so it will probably be Jelly Bean 4.1.
Confirmed Jelly Bean TouchWiz features:
Camera
New camera/camcorder filters: warm vintage, cold vintage, black and white, sepia, color highlights(blue, green, red/yellow), and many more.
Pause and resume recording
Low light mode (uses HDR)
Phone-wide
Pop Up Play can be resized and paused
Introduction of Easy Mode: large Easy widgets (for first-time smartphone users)
Introduction of Blocking Mode: disable incoming calls, notifications, alarms, and LED indicators for a designated period of time

Don't get me wrong I'm interested in any info about a major update, but too many threads. Coming from the GS2 Skyrocket forum, there was one thread for anything related to JB. Any questions, rumors or whatever went into that one thread, and any other threads (like this one) would be locked. I think the mods should do that.

Honestly I hope not. This is hurting sales for AT&T GS3s. Especially with the Note 2 coming with JB. Samsung has some control over when the update is pushed out, but just like with ICS they wanna make sure their newest phone sells before updating the previous model.

International S2 has official Jellybean, do you think we'll get it?

A few days ago, Jellybean for the S2 international was "leaked" (not really leaked but just released) on Odin.
So do you guys think T-Mobile/Telus will give it, or do have to port it?
I'm really hoping for Jellybean to release because I want the GPU stuff sorted out so we can enjoy Jellybean like we were supposed to...

The only thing the International GS2 shares with the Telus/TMo GS2 is the name. Its a completely different phone.
Yes, we'll get it. ^^^^^ what he said. Same with TMo.

If the first gen galaxy series is any indicator we won't be seeing much of anything. I9000 had tons of leaks and officials through Gingerbread but the US variants such as the vibrant and captivate never made it past Froyo leak or official.
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium

Yes

Waiting for this myself. I love cm10 but want the official Touchwiz jelly Bean. I'll give it to Sammy for making a pretty good touchwiz product this time around. Can't wait for our leak to be leaked.

Highly unlikely, T-Mobile seems to update Android phone with 1 major update and then minor ones if they really have a bad bug to fix and the SII already had it's 1 Major update to ICS. As already said look at the Vibrant, it got Froyo but no official Gingerbread update. Same goes for every other Android phone I have had from T-Mobile. Also when Samsung officially announced Jelly Bean upgrades for their phone line the T989 was not listed with that, so another indicator that it's unlikely that we will see an official update from T-mobile for it.

I guess until it's released there is no definite answer as to if it will happen.. Though I think Samsung is trying to do better with releasing updates. I'm pretty confident that it will.. There has been a leak for the international version, the Epic 4G touch. And a release date on the tlus website as well as the Rogers website which is the Canadian version of the skyrocket .. That's signs of every major carrier having the update.. If T- Mobile decided not to release it for some reason that would be just crazy on their part lol a lot of pissed off customers!

I know you guys are saying that maybe T-Mobile is waiting for 4.2 update and not 4.1.2 reality is that we dont know. Well Sprint just released another 4.1.2 update with premium suits MD4 to be exact. When the S4 is recently out for Sprint they release this update. One thing I though that US variants will never see an official premium suit update. I though it was meant for quad-core or Exynos. Anyways I have noticed that T-Mobile been pushing updates for our S3 every 2 months. Last update was in January and now is May thats 4 months in compare to the past of 2 months.
I know this is another thread about that. But we may soon see another OTA or who knows we may have to wait more months. Anyways I attached a picture so you can see what im talking about.
Android version 4.0.4 T999UVLG1/T999UVLEM 6/21/12
Android version 4.0.4 T999UVLH2 8/16/12
Android version 4.0.4 T999UVLJ4 10/17/12
Android version 4.1.1 T999UVDLJA 11/14/12
Android version 4.1.1 T999UVDLJC 1/31/13

I doubt T-Mobile will waste an update to 4.1.2 - they will probably release 4.2.2

Do you think is a waste? I mean there is no difference in releasing 4.1.2 and then 4.2 later when is done.
They prolly already been testing the 4.1.2 since its been out for other phones way before. It doesnt hurt em to release it and then release 4.2 when its ready for them to test and approve it.

I highly doubt our S3's with ever see an official 4.2 update from T-Mobile.

You really think that Samsung won't push a 4.2 update? The S3 is their best competition to people flocking to the HTC One instead of the S4 - I bet it gets an update.
As for 4.1.2, I just don't see the point in releasing a 4.1.2 update but you're probably right, they'll drop 4.1.2 and keep us there until January.

Oh yes we will see 4.2!! Look at the S2 it got 4.1.2 and it was a gingerbread phone! the S2 is the only old phone that tmobile have that released 4.1.2. I remember back when the Amaze came out it was about the same time that the S2 did. The Amaze got ICS and that it. Loot at it this way. The HTC ONE S doesnt have JB yet and the S2 does. So yes that tells me that we will see a 4.2 update.

Would look retarded if we get 4.1.2 way later than a inferior device. We will get the 4.2 Samsung has stated some of the s4 features will come to s3. They just need the s4 to sell for a month or two so it's not on the same "version" as a year old device the s3

Not that it's not obvious but there's many roms with multiview and thew new gallery if you want it that bad lol. It would be nice to see it as an official update tho

I agree but that is not why im so interesting in it. My issue is that I cant see why tmobile would rather wait for 4.2 instead of 4.1.2. There shouldnt be a problem on releasing both. Since the 4.1.2 has been out for so long I bet ya samsung has probably gave to tmobile to test already. And then release 4.2.
When its ready. Sure wish my friend were still working with tmobile. He used to get this updates to test. I remember back with my G2X not after a month it was out my friend got one with GB to test. But in anyways im glad that samsung is keeping up with updates even to the old phones not like other phone companies like LG

Ill be fine if a dev is skillful enough to integrate multi-view and the note 2 gallery in a tmobile rom. I dont like running ports from another carrier, they are now 100% stable. This will make me come back for AOSP

T-mobile is not releasing 4.1.2 to us because they feel it is not really a major update (it eeally isn't, only with the premium suite). The carriers are charged for these updates, they don't come free. We would have got 4.1.2 along with the s2 if they were going to. Now 4.2 comes with major updates that no one can deny so they will release it because they know it will be an appriciated and much more noticeable update then 4.1.1 to 4.1.2.

Yeah apparently all carriers have to pay for these updates. I believe is mostly for the bloatware and extra carrier modifications each carrier wants implemented into their version of the OS.

I doubt we will see any of these updates and if we do get one it will be by the end of the life cycle of the phone just like the s2.
