I installed it via kies, my general ram useage seems lower now but I don't know whether that's anything to do with the update I don't know.

wonder why, since I C S we only get this message and no OTA update?

have you updated yours via kies yet?

I9300 Galaxy SIII software update problem

Hi everyone,

I have problem updating the android software on my I9300 sim-free device from 4.0.4 to the newer official software version. I've tried both manually via FOTA and via KIES, but both ways I get the information that my 4.0.4 software version is the latest one. Does anyone have a solution to this problem?

Now this is new (at least to me):

I clicked on "update" in settings and received the following message:

"Access to the software update service is provided to users in the order in which they request it. Try later"

Never received that message before (just the usual up to date message). This could mean the roll out is happening but it could also mean simply nothing. :D

[Galaxy S III General] walterjnr:
Almost the exact same problem as my JB experience so far. The lag is excruciating. Hard reset has helped a little but the phone still lags considerably on JB. It's not just a "bad flash" as others have mentioned. This is the same situation for three of my friends who also have the S3. Before the JB update the phone was lightning fast, and after I honestly could not recommend it to anyone to buy. Hopefully they release an update to fix it soon.
[Galaxy S III General] dodgebizkit:
for me it's faster and smoother even with the power saver on than my iphone 4s and ipad 3. Don't see why you would have this problem on such great software and hardware. =s

Firmwares

I don't understand Samsung. Because some firmwares are XELLA, some firmwares are XLLC, some firmwares are XELL1 , e.t.c. ! Why ? CSC is OK. Modem is OK. Why PDA's diffrent?
[Galaxy S III General] JJEgan:
PDA as you put it is firmware / OS >>> It gets updated .

CSC is rarely updated as its nearly always the same data .

Modem is not always updated as their is no extra added .It can also be network / country specific .

Basic is the PDA A before B 4 after 2 for approximate release order .

Full details in the basic stickied guides and faqs .

My biggest problem so far is gallery lag when wifi/data is on. For some reason gallery is using wifi all the time even though every sync option ( google,samsung,google+,facebook account ) is off. When wifi is off everything is great but for some strange reason when wifi is on gallery is using it. Other than that and a couple of other minor issues ( such as NFC icon on notification bar sometimes disappear ) 4.1.2. has been good. Battery life is good ( actually a bit better than 4.1.1.) the phone feels a bit faster ( 5900 on quadrant and 16300 on antutu as opposed to 5500 and 16100 before )

JB 4.1.2 no flash support

JB really sucks bad when it comes to flash support. I can play flash videos ok when install flash player 11 but when in full screen the screen goes to idle and turns off while video is on. because of this I went back to android 4.0.4 which is really annoying.
[Galaxy S III General] onesolo:
Does anyone tried Lagfix app??

I did. I made a bench before and after using the app, and I found out that the results were much better after used the app... also I feel the response of the whole device a bit snappier

and I'm with only 2GB left in the internal memory (and 200 apps installed)...

After I few hours, I run again the bench app, and did not had so much better results that the second time (after applied Lagfix), but still better that the before applying Lagfix...

Still I feel continue to feel that the device is more snappier, almost no redraws for example...

What u guys think?!? I think that we have the same bug that Nexus 7. I also had a Desire HD and when internal memory was almost full, the device/system would get a lot slower (interface/responsiveness) ...

I guess this is a major android problem...

yeah that sucks... but I rather have the latest update, to fix those exploits and other things, than to have a 100% running flash player

expandable notification

Anyone noticed that the expandable notification almost doesnt work now?

I'm getting it expanded occasionally when it is the topmost notification, but it wont respond to swipes anymore(to collapse or expand a notification)
[Galaxy S III General] Eddiemc:
+1

Yea, it's very annoying. Very odd choice by Samsung, and it is overriding androids default interactive notifications. It's been like this since early jb got released, but nobody has mentioned it. Basically: all ongoing notifications are now NOT interactive.

I've asked a in a few dev threads if this can be fixed with a framework or build prop mod, but no one has picked up on it. Ask jkay, I reckon he'd be the one to make it happen:)

You have to put:

(following the other items pattern) in your /system/csc/feature.xml then reboot to enable this. You will have an item in the camera settings menu to disable the shutter sound.

I think that Mike try to provide his rom with a full stock flavor and performance tweaks, whereas omega offers a lot of mods related to the UI.
[Galaxy S III General] Theshawty:
Feature wise Omega is close to stock as well. Almost nothing is removed.

IIRC, Mike has no GS3 which is why his roms may be a bit buggy at times.

Verizon Update

Does anyone have any information on the latest update from Verizon? I got a push notification this evening about it and I deferred it until I know more... like will it take away my root? This happened to me a year ago on my old Droid X. Lesson learned!

I'm currently running Verizon's JRO03L.I535VRBLK3 and Android version 4.1.1. Based on their description, there's really nothing I want in the update. As long as it doesn't take my root, then I'll take the update... unless you guys advise otherwise.

Anyway, the details (or propaganda) is located on Verizon's website at support.verizonwireless.com/pdf/system_update/galaxy_s3.pdf.

It's SW Version JZO54K.I535VRBMB1 and includes an upgrade to the Android OS 4.1.2 (Jelly Bean).

My thoughts about official Sammy 4.1.2 and leaked 4.2.1

In my case being too curious caused just some extra work. In other words I decided to give a try for ARHD 30.x (based on 4.2.1 leak). Did factory reset for jumping from 4.1.2 to 4.2.1 so had to start from scratch. Whoever earlier mentioned Sammy leak FW turned out unstable providing various FCs' for example. Also tried newest CM 10.1 nightly but even with great effort via Cyanogenmod dev team, it's still all about the same FW leak.

So I did rollback to stable 4.1.2 (ARHD 23.2 - XXEMB5) where I'll stay until Samsung will release official 4.2.x though probably some minor/incremental fixes are expected after official launch. So in my case it's all about being patient. ;)
