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:

I am using the Galaxy Nexus with Jelly Bean Stock, now, do you guys think Galaxy S3 is worth it to throw out Jelly Bean and move to ICS in GS3?
I am asking this because I am planning to change my phone to GS3...
any ideas?

The SGSIII does have better specs than the Gnex, but personally I couldn't give up Google Now. You shouldn't have a problem finding custom builds of JB for the SGSIII. Some/many may be in beta stage and will get more stable after a while, so you could wait and not have to update as frequently or you could take the plunge and do the work. Afaik Samsung has not yet said anything official about the SIII getting JB but if I were a betting man I would bet it will eventually see it.
Edit: Wait it's important to mention that the VZW variant has a locked bootloader, so no custom firmware. Yet. Not sure what carrier you are on.
hold your GN for 3 4 months if you want JB. Than change to S3.
Simple!
I too was planing to change to GS3 but also found that almost similar thing i get with my SGN and added is super JB so decided to wait for 2 months and see what is gonna be better GS3 or Iphone 5 which is yet to come in abt 3 months i wud choose one of it
U can wait as per me but u r the boss
Why "upgrade" from a dual core device to another dual core? Wait for a good quad device to be on your carrier then upgrade

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.

"Release begin Q2."
Together with Key Pie Lemon for the Nexuses?
LOL.. Most of places don't even have 4.1.2 (and have no timeframe) and they talk about 4.2.
Take a print: NO 4.2.X BEFORE JULY.
I just got the 4.1.2 update on my galaxy s3 today and well its really not an update the only thing i got was the Group Play App..No premium suite, no split screen multitasking, or any of the other things that were supposed to be in this update. Has anyone else had this problem? I called Sprint and they said they couldnt help me...(no shock there). I dont know whether or not I should hard reset my phone or what. Any suggestions or what not would be greatly appreciated.
Sprint Galaxy S 3
Model # SPH-L710
Android Version 4.1.2
Baseband L710VPBMA6
The 4.1.2 update for Sprint does not include the Premium Suite update. I think I read somewher that they don't plan on realeasing the update in the US until after the S4 comes out. But take that with a grain of salt.
This update is 4.1.2 it's just an update of the current 4.1 JB. It is not 4.2 what your thinking of is 4.2 JB which is what Google has released already for the Nexus devices in its AOSP version. I'm sure as stated previously Samsung is holding off and working on that for a future S4 device. What this update is a bug fixer, and some ground work for when actual 4.2 is updated to the S3.

He is referring to the 4.1.2 update that was released in Europe with the Premium Suite (multi-window.. other things I didn't care to remember LOL). Who knows when we'll get 4.2.. My estimate is probably end of summer or beginning of fall so hopefully like sometime in September
Do you think that the galaxy nexus will still be updated to android 4.3 and 5.0?
Definitely get 4.3 with gnex as its still jellybean an its not exactly a major update just a couple of tweaks here an there, why would they discontinue the jellybean updates with the gnex while we are already on jellybean that's just stupid as for android 5 i seriously doubt we will get it.

i think we will get 5.0 also since majority of the phones in the market are still on gb and ics and single core phones, ours is still dual core and i feel its got enough juice to run the future os versions
I think the nexus 4 and 7 will get the 5.0 update, for the galaxy nexus probably only 4.3 hopefully also 5.0

Ok so I bought my galaxy nexus in South Korea and now I'm in Mozambique, In Africa and I am on android 4.1.2 and I don't get notifications to update to 4.3 and when I go to check for update it says your phone is up to date, could you please help me? Thanks :fingers-crossed: oh and I got the phone like 3-4 months ago
