Official Jellybean update for Galaxy S3 rolling out

Samsung had already started releasing the OS update for their current flagship device earlier than their target roll-out date with Polish users getting it first while its neighboring countries are next in line which is due to get the update in the coming days.

Some of the things that this update brings to the quad-core smartphone are listed below:

Snappier performance
UI enhancements
Resizable Pop-Up video
Revamped Notification bar
2 home screen modes
Google Now
Offline Voice Typing
S-Memo replaced by S-Note app
Enhanced browsing experience

Here’s a quick look at Jelly bean on SGS3 in action courtesy of SamMobile:

With the prompt release of this firmware update, it seems that the Samsung is starting to commit to their promises. As for their previous handsets, (SGN, SGSII and the like) weâ€™ll just have to silently weep and hope that the South Korean company hasnâ€™t forgotten our beloved devices.

Wow. And to think that they have not delivered the ICS update yet on Galaxy Tab 8.9 3G+wifi. Way to go Samsung! Malapit ng matapos ang September! Wala pa ring update! I tried OTA but it says there is no update yet. When I tried Kies (2.3, the latest version) it says that my device is not supported! Ang galing di ba? :-\

root nyo na lang para walang bloatwares. ito ang latest firmware = http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1646610
1 time root lang, pag flash mo ng latest firmware, mawawala na rin ulit ang root.

Help! Wala pa rin yung Jellybean update sa S3 ko. Pinabili ko pala siya sa Saudi. Tried plugging my phone sa computer para maidentify sa Kies if may Jellybean update na ba pero wala eh.

Nakalagay lang is Current firmware version: PDA:LFB / PHONE:LFB / CSC:LF3 (AFR) and yung latest, same as Current firmware.
