Soo.. Sprint will be dropping JB rolling out October 25th! Letting one and all know.
Internal info. This is not photoshopped in anyway. So calm...

Just a theory, maybe the LAxxx version is for in place OTA upgrades and the LBxxx is the full ODIN/wipe version?
Be interesting to compare the actual files after release.
So we're the first US variant of the Galaxy S3 to get Jelly Bean? Sweet.
I believe the version changes once it hits Sprints hands. I think they have their own system for it
So for those of us that installed the latest leak in stock form still get the update?

This ota seems to be the same as the latest leak. It might have a few tweaks but probably nothing major. If your already rooted and on rooted stock, just wait for the rooted stock version to update to, or go back to EL29 and unroot and then wait for the update.
Sprint rolls out OTA's in waves though, so your looking at a few weeks in waiting time possibly.

Anyways. I talked to a friend who works for sprint corporate in Overland Park and he confirmed this
This is exactly why Sprint's the bomb. They invest the most out of getting device support of any other carrier.
lol my bad. Didn't mean el29! I was helping another 2 other technicians to reflash software on a E4GT at the same time writing that.
Multi-tasking... not as much fun as it seems. Sucks when your the so called "go to" guy.

The release is for the INTERNATIONAL SGS2. that has nothing to do with this phone ie the E4GT. There is no release date for the E4GT official final for ICS at all.
If you are rooted, most likely not. I would also be surprised to see a release on the 15th. The Galaxy S II maybe, but not the Galaxy S II/EPic 4G Touch.
OK, regardless of release date, will we be able to update to the official release with a leaked or custom rom?

If it's anything like how EG30 was and how EK02 was just and update no you would have to be on a EL29 build. Regardless of that if you are rooted why would you take the update vs waiting a few hours or so for an updated rooted rom from a dev? that's saying we don't get the official final 3+ weeks before hand like we got EL29 as well.

Exactly. And the way Samsung does things, they release the source before the ROM so kernels are updated before the ROM drops, which usually results in the leaks working for weeks later (I never switched to EL29 for example, just kept using EL13 with EL29 kernels until about a week before the ICS leaks started).
I know it's hard to not get excited once OTA's begin (which will probably be a few months after international release) but just cool your jets and at most a few hours after the OTA's start pushing out the development forum will explode with new ROMs
The reason I am asking is because I flashed calks beta 3 onto my buddies phone. I am not sure if I will see him for a while so I want to be sure to tell him whether or not he can update, officially, later. I am not going to use the official release at all. Looks like he won't be either.

If you are not going to see him for awhile never flash a beta of an alpha rom on a phone /smh I'm sure he wants to play with ICS but in all honesty if you are not going to be able to update his phone with an official build or a newer one that's not beta that's not very smart the rom does still have issues. and no he will NOT be able to install the Official release.

Sound advice here. You never know when an issue can pop up on a beta. It could be an hour, a day, or a week. I have been running beta 2 for a couple of days now but if I was going to be away from my laptop for a few days I would be back on Gingerbread for sure

The leaked version is FG01, its the exact same file they'll start pushing out. Using it with ODIN would be the same. That said, some people just want to wait for an ota, and that's OK too.

Never a good idea to accept an ota when rooted and rom'd. This is especially true if your ROM is JB and you accept an ICS ota. It is still fresh in the community's hands but rest assured anything of value from this small update will be integrated into community ROMS.

The official radio was posted on July 16 out of the FG01 by Sextape. Initially he didn't want to release the full FG01 so he just did the radio, but after a few days changed his mind and released the whole enchilada. So, if you head to that link you can grab just the radio if that is all you're interested in.
no one should be including radios in roms.
and there was a cwm flashable zip of the radios made teh day they leaked
Is there any advantage to flashing that radio? I'm on the jellin Rom, with fd02 radio.

MR 4 means Maintenance Release 4.

As long as the "core" apps are in place and all you did was root, according to the sfhubs threads with one clicks, you'll get the ota.
That being said - being rooted alone, people have failed at getting ota pushes.
If you really want ota, best bet is to go back stock and unless anyone can say different, that means going back to ek02..

Samsung's done this with previous phones. Such as devices going from GB 2.3.6 ---> 4.0.3, etc. They skipped 2.3.7 for many devices, and even some went to ICS from 2.3.4. It's entirely possible that Samsung will find that it's the better route to just jump to 4.2 than to update 4.1. One of my favorite quotes is "Don't fix what's not broken."
