i don't think that the I9250 will receive the 4.2.0, since they will transfer the development to the Gnexus 2 (I9260).

and announce the android 4.2.0 with the Gnexus 2 and a few other Nexus of other OEM's than samsung. (LG and Sony maybe?)

Snapdragon Krait + adreno 320 + 8.0mp cam and 2gb Ram, those are the specs that leaked over the web.

Flashing right now brah! putting dat Odin to work yo.
[Galaxy S III General] disclaimernotice:
True, but not because of ram limitations. Just because all oems are making phones with 2gb doesn't mean that that's what's necessary for android 4.2. Remember how all oems were making quad cores, and yet even that wasn't necessary for jb. Also, the Nexus 7 has to at least receive 4.2, so 1gb of ram is not a limiting factor.

The reason why ALL variants of the S3 might not get 4.2 is because the S4 would have been released by then and Samsung would be focusing its efforts on that.

And one final note. You people are the same ones who kept raving about unused ram being wasted ram, so why are you all suddenly so worried now? Just because the gt i9300 isn't the best speced phone anymore, doesn't make it suddenly lousier. It still performs superbly.

Many of you are like how apple users react when a new iPhone comes out, "oh no, why did they have to release a slightly improved version of the iPhone and make my current one few old and lousy?"

In short, you need to realise that new phones will always be better so quit worrying about that.

Sweden's got Jb now although not NEE :p som carrier branded sh*t :p

Still no UK update samsucks again
[Galaxy S III General] tjlusco:
I've finally gotten to the point where I've stopped checking to see if JB has been released. After two months of constant disappointment with incorrect release dates, poor quality beta leaks, and custom JB roms plagued with serious bugs (wifi/camera/connectivity/incompatibilities/crashes) with their developers *****ing 'release the damn source so we can fix our bugs!', I'm just over it.

For all of those people who say 'just wait for the official release', yes, I'm happy to, but I wish Samsung would realise that everyone's anticipation over this release stems from the believe that there are flaws in the current ICS rom which we hope will be addressed in the JB rom. Atleast this is my hope, my expectation is JB rom will also be disappointing and I will inevitably flash yet another custom rom to replace it, but it will be an important stepping stone into improving the the quality the custom rom releases.

Given the new line of Nexus devices is about to be released which do support the open source ethos and continual development of android os, I'm probably going to jump ship at first opportunity. Thank you Samsung for yet another satisfied customer.

Just enjoy the wait for the First and the Last Major update from Samsung for the SIII. From my past experience Samsung will complete their JB update to all versions of S3 only by next year early 2nd quarter [AND THAT's THE TRUTH] :D

1. MY S1 (Intl) -> Stopped with GB + (Useless)Value Packs

2. MY S2 (Intl) -> Stopped with ICS (I am almost certain that I will not get JB on it) + yet to release value packs

3. MY S3 (Intl) -> Most probably stops with JB + some useless value pack :P

4. Future Phone -> Most certainly a NEXUS :P

I am now kind of bored with installing custom ROMS till now since Early Doc's/Darky ROM ! on a mobile that I have paid a premium price (actually more than a premium price).
[Galaxy S III General] Mr_Maz:
WHy are so many people moaning about Samsung not releasing JB for all their devices?? How many other manufactureres have released it for their top line handsets???
[Galaxy S III General] tjlusco:
It shouldn't be that difficult to update to a new version.

Update AOSP repository to latest version

Merge device specific patches

Update in-house software

Update device firmwares

Test, pack and release

If it took custom rom developers DAYS to do this without: proper documentation, a reference implementation, and intimate in-house knowledge of the device; why does it take manufactures MONTHS to release updates? That's why everyone with an android device is constantly moaning about the manufacturers, with good reason.

Anyone tried XXDLIH? Still got that annoying home button "feature"?
[Galaxy S III General] marklar666:
Noob question. I am still waiting for official JB release for UK region. I understand that if I update my phone via Kies I will have to root it again. Will I be able to do it using CF-Root 6.4? This tool was designed for GIII with ICS system. I am curious it will work with the latest android.
[Galaxy S III General] <<Raj$>>:
Just Because Other brands do not update their phones; doesn't mean Samsung can take users for granted after having charged the consumers a Premium++ price. Lets see if you are at the same tone and mood when S4 releases :p :p :p

All that I can say is Samsung(May be all the OEMs) is/are exploiting the given privilege of having so many developers helping their company to gain billions and billions of Dollars, be it by releasing a custom ROM or fixing their ROM issues :silly: :silly:.

The only reason Samsung is surviving is because of the great DEVs :cowboy: in addition to a great platform XDA :cowboy:.

SPOT ON MATE.

:eek:

Totally agree... some guys here smoke a lot some green ****...

Relax dudes!!! Samsung has to offer software upgrades at least 18 months after they release an android phone!!! It's a directive from Google!!! This phone still is only 4 months old...
[Galaxy S III General] thesebastian:
Samsung is doing hundreds of SIMILAR phones....(and hundreds of S3 versions, i started to think i9300 is the crappy expensive 1GB RAM S3 version).

I just think, they need to focus on Software development instead of release a new similar version every week.

At least, they should cooperate with AOSP non-official developers for the people who doesn't want to wait a lot of time for an official (and old at that time) new android version.

They can't focus on updates because they have 1000 thousands different versions of similar phones...with all the custom Samsung software and all that.....
[Galaxy S III General] SexyIceCream:
well i was disappointed with the way the s1 line was managed....still awaiting the s3's fate. but as nokia has shown, get complacent and you lose market share, fast...now that google has acquired motorola it'll be interesting to see what new developments will arise in the next 2 years.

[Galaxy S III General] Theshawty:
I'm sorry to tell some people that they can't expect new android versions for ever, or even one android upgrade. You buy a phone with one (1) preinstalled firmware. You can, if you're lucky, get firmware-updates in the form of bug-fixes within the same firmware version. You can seriously not expect a new android version just because the phone you bought is "the latest and greatest".

ICS was a big change from GB and it's only understandable that a lot of devices have hardware which isn't suited for that version.

Please don't resort to "but iPhones get updated for a long time". That may be true, but new iOS versions rarely incorporate changes worth noticing, i.e. changes android users have already had in their OS. I mean, iOS 5 to the iPhone 4 didn't bring Siri, you'd have to buy an iPhone 4S to get Siri.
[Galaxy S III General] Andymagyar:
I think it'd more about a perceived 'let down' for most people as opposed to genuinely needing the latest update. Jelly Bean does have some significant improvements and the lack of an explanation for the delay or any communication about a possible roll out (to the UK) date will inevitably infuriate some people.

As Samsung's biggest competitor, Apple are bound to be the main company to compare the services and software to. Apple are very clear with their release dates and due to the low number of devices they are very quick in distributing the new iOS versions. It might not be fair to directly compare the two companies but on the face of it Samsung do seem to lag behind Apple in keeping device software 'current'.
[Galaxy S III General] svanteson:
I also think Samsung is taking too long to release updates (as all the other manufacurers) but you can't really compare a custom rom release to a globally released stock firmware. They have more testing requirements, certifications, documentation etc. to handle.

Come on people, get with the programme....Jelly Bean rollout restarted today. We could all have our grubby little paws on it soon.

Really? Every time I have installed leaks or the Poland rom, battery life drastically decreases. I go back to Ics, bam, back to good long life. I hope this is sorted out when btu comes out. Also, go in to recovery mode when you have a JB rom installed, if it has a broken android, it's not final as far as I know. Is this the case with the Sweden rom?
[Galaxy S III General] KennyLegend:
Are u smoking something????

Look at ur set up dood... I use Siyah too.

Do u use maps? If not freeze it. Turn off location svcs, auto Google back up etc etc

As much as u would love me to say I do, sorry dood... Stock battery here :p

I gave the polish rom 3 weeks (since it was released) and to be honest it seemed to take a good few cycles to come good.

I'm guessing u guys came from iphones... :rolleyes: cause it sure ain't rocket science. :p
[Galaxy S III General] mossy1963:

One of the big pluses of JB over previous versions including ICS is improved battery life

Never had an iphone. Nice assumption.

Also, weirdest thing just happened. The Gallery App used 1.02gb of background data!!!! Stole all my data from my provider and no idea how and why. I dont have google+ turned on to auto update my photos or anything. Seems extremely odd that my phone would do that and only since yesterday when I installed LI8. anyone have a similar issue?

---------- Post added at 02:31 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:26 AM ----------

Ok, found the problem. Seems other people have had this too.

Go into your settings NOW!!!!

Go to the google account and turn off the instant upload and google photos thing. Even if you dont sync with Google + on mobile data, this setting probably will and in my case has. Piece of crap. Never happened before when I went to JB

[Galaxy S III General] onesolo:
but to flash via odin, don't I have to boot into recovery??
[Galaxy S III General] KennyLegend:
Don't think that option is in Odin. The option to wipe IS in Mobile Odin which is how I flash.

So if using pc odin, flash the rom, leave it boot. Then flash a custom kernel if ur gonna wipe. If u wipe from stock recovery you will wipe ur internal SD card. Wipe from custom recovery will wipe just the data partition.

No... U boot to download mode. Vol down + home + power. Recovery is vol up + home + power.

For me it took a while to settle down on LIB, let's guess same things comes with Sweden one! For me now batt. is even better than ICS using the same setup I had there, sort of stock actually!

Make sure you stop Google now and location services if u want to have same battery as in ICS, new features on JB (Google now for example) are great, but ofc they cause higher drain as they need to wake the device and locate it regularly!
[Galaxy S III General] onesolo:
x2!!!

Some weeks ago I got this phone, I put ir JB Poland right away, never used the ICS rom that it had....

At the beginning I was very, but very disappointed with the battery, but after a while, maybe after a 1 week or more the batt start to settle down!!!

Let the batt settle down and stop GG Now, location and history services..
[Galaxy S III General] xpandnz:
Google now is damn good. Part of reason I want to go back to JB but won't know till the BTU version comes out. The fact it tells me accurate travel times to work in my notification bar, priceless.

Back on ICS again and battery has doubled and I use all the same setup with both ICS and JB. I would be rather surprised if it was G Now causing battery drain. Would expect the same thing to happen on the Nexus then.
