Picking up a new gs3 today. Might be updated to this build so I'd also like to know the answer to this.
Thanks.

Yes root abilty has not changed, just the build. Use the zip from teamepic and you're too to go.

I'm unsure overall. And don't worry there's no chance it will already be mb1 lol. If new out of box, it will at a minimum be at LJ7. Ma6 and mb1 have been released in the last week. The phones in box left the factory months ago and haven't been updated since maybe in a few months the new in box phones will have the mb1 update so just get ready as if your LJ7 or a previous version.

Take it to a sprint store. If the store is a corporate owned they should be able to update it for you.

Don't necessarily want to upgrade...lol. Especially if root methods won't work (although I'm hearing its not a problem). Thanks for the response though.

Used to be rooting was a pain. Now you just watch video and it's a piece of RIBEYE STEAK smothered in mushrooms and onions.

Update to mb1 before rooting otherwise you will have to root all over again.
Root will work on mb1.
I used the team epic root process mentioned above.
In my case I was rooted with ma6. Got the ota update with stock recovery. Then had to re-root.

Is mb1 that much better?

I really do not know. I went to MA6 from whatever was previous on my phone(4.1.1). then I rooted then next morning OTA MB1 and rerooted all in less than 48 hours. So i have really no way of knowing what changes were in between MA6 and MB1. There were some minor changes I noticed after updating to MA6.
Google Settings appeared in the App drawer. I think there were some keyboard modifications where there is a separate heptic feedback switch to turn on or off.
Other than that I think everything else was behind the scenes type stuff and bug fixes.

before buying on craigslist, request the ESN number and call up sprint to see if its clean. First thing you should do

Thanks guys. I already picked it up and its great. Everything seems to be working and I can't find a single scratch on it. He gave me a nice case too. Anywho, now that I have it I see I'm on LJ7. How are you guys updating the baseband? I updated PRL, Profile, and I checked for a firmware update but there was none. I am on stock recovery (for now...lol).

Just wanna make sure. Regardless of which baseband I'm on, any rom should work, right? Sprint roms of course. It's just that on the Note 2, some baseband versions wouldn't play nice with certain roms (cause errors, etc.). I'm seeing some roms in dev section saying, "based on ma5" or "based on ljc." Does that mean I HAVE to be on that baseband to flash that rom? Sorry for all the noobish questions but when you bounce around devices, you get confused

Samsung devices act the same. I suggest you read a whole lot more since your question reveals that you really have no idea what you are doing and a brick is in the future... I realize you're excited to play around, but the results of fapping with tissue paper and fapping with sand paper stem from more than just a simple word.

A brick is NOT in my future. Look I respect the fact that you've been around a while and have helped many out but just because I ask a noobish question doesn't mean I'm a noob. I've owned an OG Evo, a EVO 3d, the EVO 4g LTE, the galaxy nexus, the sg2, the gnote 2, and sg3 and many more I probably can't remember right now. I have been a "flashoholic" for quite a while, flashing roms, radios, mods, etc. I've even helped devs build flashable zips to install mods. I HAVE NEVER BRICKED A DEVICE. Maybe my question wasn't clear but it doesn't matter cuz I already updated my baseband to mb 1 and I've flashed several roms, all without incident. It seems to me that all roms work regardless of what baseband your on (as long as they are for the right device). I respect you and others on this forum and I just didn't appreciate the tone with which this came across.

T999 updadates, where we are?

is there any doc available on Tmobile website, which show us how far we are getting the S3 updates? or what updates are lined-up?
Heard about the premium suite months ago, never heard anything officially from Tmobile that when we officially will get that update.
Now other devs are working to port the S4 apps.
is there any info that devs are working to port the premium suit to port from international s3 to t999?
thanks,

At this time there is no word for the 4.1.2 JB update from T-Mobile. As of now Verizon, Sprint and MetroPCS got 4.1.2 without Premium Suite built in, so I don't expect it for T-Mobile. Just my opinion T-Mobile may skip 4.1.2 and go straight to 4.2.X, again just my guess.

As much as I want to see this phone get 4.2.x, We most likely will never see it from T-Mobile.

|Even If You Fall Face First You're Still Moving Forward|

We will see the 4.2x update from tmobile but you're gonna have to wait a long time for it. As premium suit I think thats going to be related to the hardware. Maybe thats why none us s3 have it.. So far the only S3 that have premium suit are the quad-core version which means only the international version

If you root your phone and go to the original development section, there are a few 4.2.2 custom roms to choose from. I've been using rootbox 4.2.2 as my daily driver for quite a while. Why wait when it's only a few steps away?

I'm sorry but that reason is so overrated and overused. Its like saying if you want the latest updates buy a nexus. Some people don't like rooting their phones. Some people don't like aosp and like tw features. Before someone
Says it. Sure there are apps that can be substituted but its not the same. Yes ive ran rootbox and it is awesome but I then end up actually finding a bug that kills it for me. I've tried aokp but Kasper left. I've rooted every phone I've had and this is the first after rooting it and returning to stock that is rather keep stock everything. I'd rather wait for an update. But that's just me.

That's another one I've heard use. Because I can. I get updated info on updates, leaks, if I have issues I usually find answers here than any other place. I can help others out with issues I've ran into before. Phones and tech are my hobby sort of. I've been using xda since I've owed a my touch 3g. I used to be a flashaholic up until I got this phone. I've rooted every phone and flashed ROMs on all of them. My choice is not forced upon you as yours shouldn't be forced on someone else. I know you most likely suggested rooti ng but the op question a appeared to be asking about stock updates. I know words online can't be taken at face value compared to speaking face to face but I don't mean any disrespect. Just stating my opinion about your comment.

Samsung Galaxy S® II (Sprint) Android 4.1 Jelly Bean Official Upgrade

Just came across this: Samsung has released the Jelly Bean update for the SPH-D710 phone. It is installed using the Simple Upgrade Tool available thru their site.
Samsung has released a new Android™ OS version for the Samsung Galaxy S® II (Sprint) (SPH-D710). Jelly Bean 4.1.2 software version GB27. Please follow the instructions below to download and install Simple Upgrade Tool using your Windows PC.
Unfortunately, the Android 4.1 Jelly Bean update for the Samsung Epic 4G Touch is not available over the air, and those of you who want to download and install the software upgrade will have to do it through Samsung's site/software. It seems that the downloadable content is just too big to be pushed OTA, at least according to Sprint. If you ask me, I think that the carrier doesn’t want to bother with rolling out the Android 4.1 Jelly Bean update over the air for the Epic 4G Touch because the phone was launched two years ago and it doesn’t seem to be a priority.
The Android 4.1 Jelly Bean update van be downloaded and installed right away. In case you want for details about the matter, you can check out the Sprint support site HERE.
Title: Sprint_D710_GB27_JellyBean_SimpleUpgradeTool.exe
Applicable Model: All SPH-D710 Models ending in SPRSEP-D710AAASPR, SEP-D710ZKASPR, SEP-D710ZWASPR,
SEP-D710AAASPR, SEP-D710ZKASPR, SEP-D710ZWASPR, SEP-D710AAASPR, SEP-D710ZKASPR,
SEP-D710ZWASPR, SPH2D710AAASPR, SPH-D710AAASPR, SPH-D710ZKASPR, SPH-D710ZKXSPR,
SPH-D710ZWASPR, SPH-D710ZWXSPR ( Carrier or Corporate Customer Sprint)
Description: This is a software upgrade for the Sprint Samsung Galaxy S II (SPH-D710). This software will update your Galaxy S II to GB27.
For complete upgrade instructions see, http://samsung.com/us/mobileupdates/sprint/gs2

This is like a more complicated odin one click .exe. I think.

yhea buddy!!
Thanks for sharing

Tried installing followed directions and it got stuck in start up boot loop. Computer Odin into recovery, wiped all data flashed the previous rom was using as DD and now it shows Baseband Version heading GB27 and the rest of the builds from the rom. Not a total success so I can't say it worked or didn't just informing of my results.
Even though it says GB27 I just saw QBKing77 has uploaded Official Android 4.1.2 Jelly Bean GB27 Update on Samsung Epic 4G Touch Review (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u1Bt55Ngass&feature=em-uploademail) to which my phone does not have these changes. I think some are very cool but love running 4.2.2 and they way my phone is now.

It is. From what I've read a few users have had trouble booting after using this update method which they needed to boot into recovery and perform a factory reset.

woah
I havent seen this since the samsung moment days.
and later also using it on the transform. Those were fun.
if i remember correctly you can swap the tar file out with a dif tar and it should flash it like odin. well i guess in that sense it is Odin lol.
But dont take my word on it lol.

Just noticed the OP says something about the reason this update is not OTA through Sprint because this device is "2 years old and is not a priority". This is not true. The reason the update is being pushed this way is because the entire internal SD is wiped to accommodate the differences in the partitions. A regular OTA simply can not achieve this. Hence the reason for a over the wire update.

Lmfao if this phone was not a priority we would have never gotten JB at all.....appreciate the share but dont agree with the last part

Maybe and kies update doesnt wipe internal sd card. I dont know abojt the size part but it certainly would be a pain if the ota zip is any thing larger than 400-500mb file.

So just tested on our demo phone (sprint corporate store) and nothing was wiped...what did they change between the leaks and now?
Also, auto brightness is broken even after hard reset, can anyone else confirm? Don't feel like tearing off our phones security just to triage the ambient light sensor

Auto brightness is broken for me. Anytime it is enabled, brightness is set to lowest. Any idea for a fix would be much appreciated. I used to use SwitchPro widget to control brightness, but dont need the brightness widget since its now built into notification.

I just installed the Jelly Bean update on my S2, mainly bc I just got the phone recently after I cracked the screen on my previous phone. I'm new to rooting, and just had a quick question to ask... I have already rooted my S2 and i've been looking through all the roms available, but are there any ROMs that can be used directly with 4.1.2 and the GB27 modem? Or do I need to downgrade to use any ROMs?
Thanks

You need to post questions in q&a(kennyglass, I can sense your presence!). But the answer to your question is yes, there are many ROMs that have 4.1.2 and in order to use a Jellybean ROM, you HAVE to have a jb modem. Look in android development for this phone lots of choices for 4.1.2. Read the OP correctly and flash away. Good luck!

GPS
Did this update cause GPS issues for anyone else? I installed this on my wife's phone and now she can't lock on generally. If she can lock on, then she loses navigation after a minute or two.
I saw another thread about GPS issues here. Is my only choice to fix it rooting? I root my own devices (my original Epic 4G and current GS3), but in general my wife likes her devices stock. The non final ROMS I ran and issues I had on occasion have led her to be resistant to the idea.

Try updating prl and profile then reboot and use the gps test app to get initial lock for a few minites and it will lock fast after that. Also you can be stock rooted dont need a rom. I keep going back to stock rooted, mostly get rid of sprint bloatware and run adblocker.

I think there must be something physically wrong with her phone. I did the prl and profile updates, to no avail. I used qbking77 videos and rooted then installed a new ROM, flashing an ICS modem like they recommended, and it sees 0 satellites.
My intention now is to revert her back to the stock ICS and run it to a Sprint store and see if they can't be of any assistance. Does the S2 work like the S3 and count when/if you've flashed any custom roms?

It does if you flash with Odin. I'd run Triangle Away just to be on the safe side. Make sure you do it before you unroot however.

What's happened to Samsung and XDA?

I bought my SIII about 6-8 months ago, coming from the SII.. the Devs and roms for the SII were good and plentiful .. I get the SIII and it seems like there isn't much support for it! I mean my SII shortly after giving it to my wife was updated to 4.1.2 WTF?? I surely thought by now my SIII would be 4.2.2! (Maybe even 4.3!!).. am I wrong for feeling this way? Is it Samsung I should cuss the F out? LoL! Now I have the "itch" to say screw it and start flashing again but nothing seems too promising as a DD

Samsung feels 4.1.2 is pretty much bug free. Now they are struggling to keep up with the booms in technology and software as well. New versions of Android are coming out quicker than Sammy's new phones. Why put out a 4.2.2 when 4.3 is out? So now they concentrate on getting out new phones with 4.3 on it and then they start working on updates to the dozens of existing models. 4.3 was announced as coming to the S3 BUT that will be the international first then US months later depending on carriers.
What is in 4.2.2 that you MUST have? There are 4.3 AOSP ROMs all over if you want that.

There are various ways to flash other carriers roms to T-Mobile, the AT&T variant is almost (and in some cases) a direct port...

It doesn't seem like the newer versions of Android add too much more function than 4.1.2. As far as looks, their are plenty of ways to theme your phone to make it look like whatever you like

Going to have to agree with this. 4.3 even on the best ROMs are alphas at best.
The only semi stable AOSP/CM ROMs are 4.2.2 and under.
And all AOSP/CM ROMs since have a weird bug with Instagram or third party apps and their front facing camera.

This^^

Since posting this thread I've used CM10.2 Nightlies and also ParanoidAndroid 3.99 RC2.. I can honestly say (and this is of course my own opinion and result) that CM has been a better experience. I use my phone a bunch for little things, internet, text messaging, FBing, Pictures, XDA, games, etc and haven't had any problems with CM.. Only reason I switched back from PA to CM was honestly only that Candy Crush wasn't compatible with PA (and I barely play CC anymore lol).. I've just lost my ability to use Triangle Away for some reason.. It was working on the CM10.2 09/07 nightly, flashed PA and didn't work. Then flashed back to CM but the 09/26 and still not working, flashed the new kernel and TA still gets stuck at Detecting Packages.. Wish someone would tell me why.. I've posted in like 5 different places and nobody responds

Since posting this thread I've used CM10.2 Nightlies and also ParanoidAndroid 3.99 RC2.. I can honestly say (and this is of course my own opinion and result) that CM has been a better experience. I use my phone a bunch for little things, internet, text messaging, FBing, Pictures, XDA, games, etc and haven't had any problems with CM.. Only reason I switched back from PA to CM was honestly only that Candy Crush wasn't compatible with PA (and I barely play CC anymore lol).. I've just lost my ability to use Triangle Away for some reason.. It was working on the CM10.2 09/07 nightly, flashed PA and didn't work. Then flashed back to CM but the 09/26 and still not working, flashed the new kernel and TA still gets stuck at Detecting Packages.. Wish someone would tell me why.. I've posted in like 5 different places and nobody responds

My biggest issues are surrounding bluetooth - I experience issues related to pops when switching songs - almost sounds like a non-flushed buffer, and sometimes major lag... almost like the app has crashed, but it doesn't... it comes back. This was on SlimBean 4.3...
I haen't tried CM or the others primarily because I reverted to 4.1.2 for stability.
My best bet on Triangle Away is to run it just before you boot into download mode... (that SHOULD work...) Samsung introduced stuff back when 4.0 came out where the triangle would get re-set whenever you'd boot into an altered recovery...

(Q) Has anyone gotten the AT&T 4.3 update?

While browsing Samsungs website I happened to click on our Note 2 model i317 and under OS it says 4.3, my question is has been released already? Ive been testing the international 4.3 builds, I would love to test an official rooted deoxed version. I found the info here... http://m.samsung.com/us/mobile/cell-phones/SGH-I317ZWAATT#specs

I haven't heard anything, This probably means that because Samsung gave At&t the update that it's just waiting for them to push it to us. Should be really soon, sprint already has theirs and I read that T-Mobilw just got theirs out

Sprint's update is out, T-Mobile's is out, US Cellular's is out, Verizon's dropped today and we wait. Funny that AT&T was supposed to one of the earliest updates on the leaked list but we still wait. I just want it to get into the hands of the TW ROM teams, Ditto Note, Sky Note and Jedi so I can see what they do with it.

Yeah, my contract is up in January and I don't think I'm going to stick with AT&T. It seems like they really don't update their phones if they don't absolutely have to. =/

Thank God I am not with At&t and I am pretty sure this note will be the last phone I get that is At&t branded phone with how they are locking up their phones

What is the latest version from AT&T? I am still on 4.1.2. If I am in a different country will I still get an update if AT&T releases on update? Every time I check for an update it always says that I have the latest update.

I don't think that the update will be far behind the other carriers. At&t always waits till the last possible moment for anything. My guess is that it wont be an OTA but thru Kies which will suck cause my CPU just crashed on me the other day

Well as far as I can tell they're already the last carrier to push the update. The only question now is "WHEN?" (if ever, heh...)
As for Kies, I highly doubt it. Every other update was always OTA. Kies is just a convenience factor.

Refurbished units and warranty replacement devices reportedly have 4.3 loaded..
Of course ...no love for the current users ...again....g

Well, I don't think anyone should be in a rush to update,

I thought you only ran AOSP roms. Don't tell me you are cheating on AOSP with TW.

Uh....gotta go....LOL

Update is failing... I think it's b/c I removed some Sammy bloat apps.
I've never had to go back to stock / unroot. Is there a guide? Is there a stock SGH-I317 UCAMC3 zip in this forum I can use with odin?

(Yes, I searched a ton and only found some questionable non-xda guides.)

I bet that "official" update won't have any note 3 spen features or multi window features integrated into it!

Just got update on my GT-I9300 international version unlocked, got installed successfully but then apps started giving problem, crashing multiple time, unable to launch. So had to reset, works fine now.
One thing! I felt my phone was damn slow after the update.
