Which Christmas? 2013?

The rollout has been pathetically slow and 4.1.1 didn't even reach Australia before 4.1.2 was announced.

What pisses you off is there seems to be zero communication from Sammy.

brightness slider

Just installed JB on my phone, loving the globe camera so far. hope they place the brightness slider back in the notification settings menu sometime.
[Galaxy S III General] FDisk80:
There is no globe camera in Samsung ROM and you can enable the brightness slider in the toggles. Do you even have an S3?
[Galaxy S III General] MoonBlade:
Lool i guess he is having some custom ROM :)
[Galaxy S III General] borgond:
Maybe he is talking about the Photosphere functionality that comes with the updated Jelly Bean Camera?
[Galaxy S III General] FDisk80:
What phone are you guys using? There is no Photosphere functionality in Samsungs Jelly Bean Camera.
[Galaxy S III General] Theshawty:
The N4 camera (which is floating around in apk form or in an unofficial 4.2 gapps package) has it. I have that camera apk and can fully use photosphere to my liking.

Hi,

I've flashed 4.1.2 which is Poland version using Odin and changed CSC to XEO. Now i can update my phone with Kies. I wanted to ask is it okay to use phone flashed firmware with Odin? Do i need to reinstall the current firmware using Kies?

I'm using Sony Xperia as well. Sony recommends to reinstall firmware using their software called "Update service" if phone updated via Flash tool

[Galaxy S III General] ohyesman:
I've got a Sim Free Unlocked S3 and on 4.1.1 (Which took ages to come to my handset)

Just gone on my phone > About Device > Software Update > Check and its giving me the "Access to the software update service is provided to users in the order in which they request it. Try later"

Now the only time i've ever seen this before was when i was updating from ICS to JB so maybe the UK unbranded versions do have 4.1.2 rolling out to them. I'll try again on Wi-Fi later and via Kes this evening and update.
[Galaxy S III General] ste1164:

[Galaxy S III General] dodgebizkit:
Kies is crapping out on me, if I download ODIN will it download and install the stock update the same way as KIES but without the hassle, or is it only for downloading ROMS that I have on the PC?
[Galaxy S III General] Dean-xXx:
You just download the rom you want from sammobile and flash with Odin.
[Galaxy S III General] mroshaw:
Believe it - upgrading now over Kies. I'm on Vodafone UK.

In relation to the 4.1.2 update. Does anybody else think that page buddy is a wonderful feature that Samsung sort of ruined. Not sure why it displays "Enjoy listening to music" in gigantic letters on the music page and why I can't change the recommended apps at the bottom "custom" app drawer.
[Galaxy S III General] kryogenik:

Sent via second class post, so I don't expect you to read this for at least a few weeks.
[Galaxy S III General] kryogenik:
Well that was easy (!) enough once I'd downgraded Kies again... damn thing never connects so I upgraded to the latest release which connected, but then said 'unable to initialise' when I checked for a firmware update... un-installed that and re-installed older version of Kies and it updated. Must have taken 30 mins at least. Gallery looks good, page buddy/multi-window will come in handy, low light in the camera is very nice.

S3 i9300 T-mobile UK update

Hi,

I'm newbi so apologies if this has been asked before. I have Samsung galaxy S3 Android version: 4.0.4 Baseband version: I9300BVLH1 T-mobile UK. I recently got it unlocked using unlock code rather then rooting it. I am wanting to upgrade to Android 4.1.2 stock firmware and have downloaded Odin 3.04.

As I have never done this before any advice would be great.

Has anyone done this with their S3 I9300BVLH1 T-mobile UK?

Where is best place to download standard stock firmware (not looking for custom ROM at the moment)?

Do I need to root it or can I get away with our rooting the phone?

Many thanks for your help.

Hi have recently had the update to 4.1.1 here in New Zealand on the Vodafone network.

Have previously run 4.1.2 via Odin and really loved it, but went back to stock and used triangle away for warranty purposes.

Am actually wanting to go back to 4.1.2 now that my warranty is no longer covered through work, as this is now my personal phone. Is the Polish 4.1.2 firmware still the better one to run? or is there another firmware release that has a few extras that would be better suited to where I am... Certain functions are not available yet in my country... Just wondering if anyone had any opinions on this?

Thanks,

Linz.

Recently i updated official 4.1.2 to my s3 to find out that now when i scroll through messages it is laggy and stuttering compared to 4.1.1 and my phones gets hotter than before. Does anyone has same problems? I did factory reset but that didn't help.

EDIT: turned on "force gpu rendering" and now message scroll is smooth and phone is heating little less

Yes poland is best :) You can change baseband to your country if the one that comes with it is not good for you. And you are still under warranty it is a stock rom. :=)
[Galaxy S III General] oswade:
Better to replace your secmms.apk with a 4.1.1 one. You can download the deodexed apk from the "stock apps" thread in "themes and apps" subforum. if you are using stock/odexed rom you will need to delete the .odex when replacing too.

I tried force gpu rendering but it still lags badly and drops frames compared to the consistent 50-60 fps on the 4.1.1 apk.
[Galaxy S III General] veksx:
Did you first turned off message app,before forcing gpu rendering.If you did not it will not take effect

[Galaxy S III General] affinityvision:
When I got my S3 in AU, I chose to get a stock phone, not branded or locked to any carrier. I also wanted to get the AU warranty from Samsung of 24 months. Most cheaper phones are imports or contract deals.

Anyway, I expected to get JB in October, it finally arrived a few days back, now on 4.1.1 -- only to find out that someone else I know whom got an import phone (not AU stock) already has 4.1.2 and I believe he didn't flash it, he got the update via OTA. I guess I'll be waiting a couple more months for the 4.1.2 udpate; I hope it will be sooner.

Cheers

Got the 4.1.2 update via the over air update. Not sure how much use the Multi-Screen is going to be to be honest but least it’s an update.

I don't particularly like the keyboard changes though :( - they say added swipe - it had that already didn't it???!!!! but the auto correct is not working at all!!

It’s doing my nut in - It worked fine on the previous JB version, this shows you the corrected word at the top but does not auto correct it - you have to physically choose it yourself!! - I can't seem to fine any option to change this - (the menu and choices are different too) Oh - No option in the options menu to change or add to your personal words etc which you could previously - Am I missing something here???

I like the stock keyboard so don't particularly want to use swift key or whatever so plz don't just say use that.

[Galaxy S III General] kenyw:
The stock keyboard in JB makes use of licensed SwiftKey technology to perform word predictions. It is plausible that because of this it now behaves a bit more like SwiftKey itself (I use SwiftKey but do not use its autocorrect, and it behaves similar to the way you describe).
[Galaxy S III General] ohyesman:
It used to have the swype typing on Jelly Bean 4.1.1 which was the same as it is now (to look at and use at least) and it had auto correction. Its just a pain its not there anymore - need an option to enable it at least. Shame as the predictions seem to far better now as well - if it actually corrected then it would be pretty much perfect. Now it takes twice as long as i have to double check the message then click on each word that needs changing! Pain in the ARSE!!! :eek:

I post this to a gallery thread but mayby here is more propriet. Yesterday i installed the stock 4.1.2 rom from kies (i am not rooted) and the whole phone seems laggier, especially the new gallery app it is awfull, it lags all the time even when it is allready opened in the backgroung. the pinch to zoom is almost unresponsive, too laggy.

Should i make a hard (factory ) reset , because some people say that the 4.1.2 is very fast and lag free. I bought the s3 I9300 two weeks ago and it had 4.1.1 which felt not that fast (and coming from iphone 4s a bit dissapointed) but for sure better than the 4.1.2. Suggestions please !!!
