sammobile's statement is about as useless as saying "it might come out on Oct 9th". Oh, wait.. they already said that.

It also MIGHT come out the week of Christmas. For that matter, samsung MIGHT decide that because we are such loyal customers, they are going to give us free GNote2's.

Seriously, though, it seems that sammobile has been cut off from whatever "insider" stuff they used to have with samsung. All the "leaks" from them suddenly stopped one day and people were downloading the Poland JB release BEFORE sammobile had it.

Seems that they are just as clueless as the rest of us now. "Some time next week" is a reasonable guess, but it's not exactly rocket science to figure out that it's going to be next week or the following one (if samsung is going to meet their self-imposed October timeline.)
[Galaxy S III General] Kangburra:
Yes, odd how it all stopped when the official ROM came out, almost like a beta team was taken off the case and their (wo)man was on that team.
[Galaxy S III General] p33k:
Everyone keeps saying this but what they said was true. They said it's coming out for korean models and it did. They never said anyone else was getting it on the 9th. I got mine on the 9th hehe.
[Galaxy S III General] shethsa:
Ok. It should be out anytime now.... I. E my s3 out of my house, swapped for a note 2 ;)
[Galaxy S III General] DeadSOL:
You're absolutely right, Gary. Sammobile doesn't seem to be in the thick of it any more.
[Galaxy S III General] prasadns26:
Cause UK is the no1 smartphone selling market ....
[Galaxy S III General] Kangburra:
I don't think so!
[Galaxy S III General] imatevski:
JB is great improvement over ics. So is the battery life. Running AndyX Rom 8.1 ..DLIB ..stock kernel. Pics attached.

More than two days of moderate usage and more than a day of heavy usage. Pretty awsome if You ask me, for a smartphone that is.
[Galaxy S III General] JJEgan:
Totally wrong not even close to the truth .

[Galaxy S III General] mossy1963:
yeah I paid for Nova prime but not running it on my SGS3 tbh - I like the weather widget in Touchwiz....might feel different tomorrow
[Galaxy S III General] eKulzz:
Why is everyone so damn impatient around here? As soon as I got tired of waiting I flashed the Poland 4.1.1 release and it's working perfectly!!! What's stopping everyone else from flashing?
[Galaxy S III General] mossy1963:
Haha ..... well said mate :)
[Galaxy S III General] Theshawty:
Speaking of jellybean, I've been thinking for some time now.. There has to be a less tedious way of flashing an aosp rom and keep wifi and nfc functionality. Has anyone even given a better response than saying "it's the bootloader, blabla"?

I don't believe that for a split second. Mobil Odin doesn't flash bootloader files and by flashing back to ICS with it, and then flashing aosp, you have wifi, so what's the deal? Why is that even necessary? Does the stock ICS flash something outside of /system that only a revert can solve?
[Galaxy S III General] giftedgiggsy11:
Well for me personally i like to do a full wipe prior to flashing/updating, so i don't want to wipe my phone to flash the Poland release then have to restore all my apps, contacts, settings etc only to have to wipe and repeat the process again when the official UK release comes out.
[Galaxy S III General] myth1001:
Samsung is bringing multi view in S3 JB updates! Sounds like a good news for us! :D

p.s. check @sammobiles
[Galaxy S III General] LenAsh:
That matters because?
[Galaxy S III General] The S3 Kid:
What is multiview?
[Galaxy S III General] DeadSOL:
If they bring that to the International version, I'm going to forgive Samsung for this huge delay!!!!!! :angel:
[Galaxy S III General] Crest+:
You got a point buddy.

We just need to sit back and wait for sammy's good news.

Infact we got 1..

We are getting multiview funtions... tweet from sammobile..

It i shown in this video, starting at about 0:58:

It makes it possible to have two apps on the screen at the same time.
[Galaxy S III General] The S3 Kid:
Nice. That sidebar looks cool.
[Galaxy S III General] Kangburra:
I can't see me having a use for it, it's clever and new, but it would take some getting used to.
[Galaxy S III General] BOZG:
I can't see me using it all the time but for gamers it could be useful. It would be handy to be able to send a text without closing a game. I use my phone for studying on the bus and it would be handy to be able to read and document and to be able to use the Internet to look for additional add it sources etc
[Galaxy S III General] andresalonika:
How can the int variant handle multi screen whilst touchwiz is redrawing in 4.0.4 ?
[Galaxy S III General] BOZG:
Whether it allows for two instances of the same app to be opened simultaneously will be interesting. I'd definitely like to be able to have two texts or emails open when I need to refer to one while sending another.
[Galaxy S III General] alundra212:
Hello everyone!

Im new to this android scene, and I've only experimented Omega and SuperNexus, and while SN is much faster than Omega, Omega has TWs functionalities, better camera, battery life, etc.

So i was wondering if there was something along the lines of Omega, but better?

Thanks in advance!
[Galaxy S III General] FDisk80:
I thought it's only for the NOTE II. But damn that is something I can use on the S3. :good:

LOL!!!!!!! This was the second comment on this thread!!!! It's now mid-October! How naive were we? :p
[Galaxy S III General] SexyIceCream:
but the japanese model has 1.6gh and 2gb ram....i doubt the 0.2ghz makes a difference but that extra 1gb probably allows for the multi screen...our i9300 only has 1gb of ram =(
[Galaxy S III General] shethsa:
Samsung India store now tells me November release of jb for s3. Disappointing.
[Galaxy S III General] Netman_:
No way with 1GB...

Is project butter fully working on Korean version?
[Galaxy S III General] goose2515:
Come on Samsung its mid october need JB. :)
[Galaxy S III General] got-petrol:
so us that have 1 gig might have to miss out on multiview
[Galaxy S III General] FDisk80:
It should come to all S3's in next update. Don't think 1GB is an issue here. It's not like you are multiviewing 3D games.

The bigger issue here is the screen size. That's why I thought they would only make this available on the NOTE II. But if they already made it for the 2GB S3 screen size, then there is no reason for all versions of S3 to have this.
[Galaxy S III General] memebr:
I follow this forum for a while now, but i decided to finally register today, and just to answer those and a few more others that posted the same thing.

You guys are forgetting that the Jelly Bean was developed to run smoothly on a device that have also 1gb RAM (Galaxy Nexus)

technically our device (I9300) have everything to run the jelly bean smoothly with full features including the multiview and even more.

1gb of RAM is a whole lot of memory.

edit:

I apologize to got-petrol and Netman, i watched some videos a while a go (google I/O presentation, google G nexus presentation and the galaxy note 2 presentation) and i mixed up their info a lil bit.
[Galaxy S III General] FDisk80:
Only problem that multi view is a Samsung thing and not in the official Jelly Bean.
[Galaxy S III General] got-petrol:
And your forgetting that Samsung adds touchwiz on top of android and it's that what bloats the memory... it looks like the next nexus phone is going to have 2 gig
[Galaxy S III General] boulek:
The ram use must be corrected. I had the HOS before and I got the gs3 because it seemed faster and smoother.But the hos had better ram use so it was better in everyday use in matters of transparency bugs ..
[Galaxy S III General] memebr:
Your are right sir, i was re watching the video i thought it was the one showing this multiview feature and it was a Galaxy Note 2, i commit a mistake on the videos because i watched the googe I/O presentation on youtube at the same day, i'm sorry for that mistake.

You are also right sir, the touchwiz interface really drains memory

i didn't used my phone with the stock rom and kernel, the 1st thing i did when the phone arrived was get the CM10 flashed.
[Galaxy S III General] Netman_:
Polish JB doesn't have fully working project butter.

I ask if Samsung did fully working in Korean version.
[Galaxy S III General] thunder8yte:
nvm.
[Galaxy S III General] eseregin:
Yeah... I had more free memory on SGS2 - and MUCH more free.

Looks like it is time to think again to switch to CM roms... Just wait for sources for JB and think CM10 will be "must have" for us
[Galaxy S III General] Theshawty:
nvm

Patiently waiting for JB too...
[Galaxy S III General] ghul21:
Today at the IFA conference official Samsung did not say anything about JB on s3.

They spoke for it on Note 2, televisions and ..........refrigerators. I feel that the official launch we will have to wait.

ermm...the date of that article was the 21st of August, which was last week. We already know this article to be wrong as it clearly isn't going to be ready to come out this week in view of the problems still being found with the test leaked releases.

[Galaxy S III General] Theshawty:
Yeah, it's been said and we know it.
[Galaxy S III General] dodgebizkit:
Have any of the later JB leaks fixed redraw?
[Galaxy S III General] uManiac:
Just out of curiosity, what is the redraw issue?
[Galaxy S III General] dodgebizkit:
After closing the browser or a ram heavy app I have to wait several seconds for the homescreen to reappear. I have made a video I could upload to YouTube and show you if you'd like further clarification? It's the only annoying niggle I have with he phone that I've never experienced with iPhones or windows phones nd I hope JB fixes it.
[Galaxy S III General] Theshawty:
Touchwiz is a memory hog, and when you have just any resource-heavy app running, the S3 suffers from OOM issues, so the launcher is force closed to conserve RAM. Upon exiting said app, the Launcher is "cold booted", or as some call it, "redrawn".
[Galaxy S III General] m4rk84:
When using any Jellybean rom I cannot access photos or music already on my SD card in the gallery or stock music app. If i take a photo using jellybean, only that photo will show in the gallery, even tho it is in a folder with other pics taken using an ICS rom. Does anyone share this problem? I have reformatted my card countless times, and tried a different card too but to no avail and done full wipes when installing...

I experience this problem with sammy/aosp roms. Apps like quickpic work fine, just not the stock...I don't hear a lot of noise about this problem, so i assume its something i'm doing wrong somewhere.

A strange thing is i flashed omega jelly bean over omega ics and the SD card functions as it should...I would be very grateful for some light to be shone on this problem as not understanding it is really doing my head in. Thanks folks.
[Galaxy S III General] pennzoilgtr:
i thought no one encounter this with the jb leak and btw it looks like it's a gallery bug. that's the reason why i stay away from the jb leak for the moment. i tried all methods until i got to wipe off the sd card and do a factory reset, and then put the photos back, some appear and some don't.. especially from the camera roll.. none appear. and i am sure that .nomedia file is not present.
[Galaxy S III General] m4rk84:
I'm glad I'm not alone tho I wish there was a fix, thanks for the response.

I imagine this will be fixed in the final release..if it isn't I'll probably cry haha...I'm still holding out for a solution...anyone?
[Galaxy S III General] J34:
To me, I solved the "redraw" problem by wiping, installing stock LG8, then wipe all data, cache and dalvik. Then installed Omega v17 (LH8) and all has been solved.

Kinda long, but... Was desperate and pissed at the redraw, so I tried everything and that worked.
[Galaxy S III General] jamin567:
I heard it will be ther by next week
[Galaxy S III General] xpandnz:
I heard jelly beans are all ready in bags, on the shelf. But jelly bean is like ages away. Samsung, give us jelly beans!
[Galaxy S III General] disclaimernotice:
It's funny how when there was only the US version and the GT i9300, everyone here was saying that 1gb or ram is more than enough, that 2gb would be an overkill, unused ram is wasted ram, etc

But now with the GT i9305 and the Japanese variants, everyone suddenly seems to think that 1gb is not enough.

Guys, 1gb of ram is enough for multiscreen. Everything you said in the past is still true (except for the 'unused ram is wasted ram' part. That's crap). The homescreen redraw occurs because of priority management. And it's better to have the homescreen shutting down than to have your current app crashing.
[Galaxy S III General] FDisk80:
Look at this, those are one of the heaviest games available right now. Those heavy 3D games need only 50 to 100mb of RAM to run smooth and they don't even max out the 4 CPU cores.

So RAM is not really a problem with multiview.
[Galaxy S III General] got-petrol:
I've been saying this for weeks that the i9300 would have been better with 2 gig but everybody says what's the point it will just get waisted what bull I have 4 gig in my pc and only half of that get used is it waisted..I used to have a galaxy s i9000 but couldn't upgrade it to ics because of not enough ram what's going to happen the new nexus phone gets released with 2 gig of ram and the new android os needs over a gig and then there touchwiz the android os is using more ram with every release.. jellybean might run ok on my i9300 but what about in the future in a years time everybody with 2 gig in there Samsung galaxy s3 gets a update and I get a valuepack
[Galaxy S III General] Theshawty:
What are you on about?

1GB RAM is good enough, it's the memory management that's crap.
[Galaxy S III General] disclaimernotice:
Makes complete sense from the technical point of view. But from the commercial point of view, you're wrong. The Galaxy S3 is definitely not going to outlive the Nexus 7; by then, Samsung would have made an S4 and be focusing on it. So, considering the fact that both the s3 and nexus 7 have 1 gb of ram, we'll still be able to smoothly run all versions that the nexus 7 will support, whether officially or not.
[Galaxy S III General] memebr:
Thats something true, the new nexus phone is coming out with 2gb, the new high-end phones of all brands are all being released with 2gb RAM

This must be some kind of sign of what is coming in the future, dosen't it? The next android upgrade will need more memory for sure, and i'm not speaking about the 4.2 one...

It's kinda sad, i have this I9300 for just a week now, and i'm thinking in sell this thing and grab a new GNexus 2 due the lack of commitment of samsung on the I9300 processor sources case.

at least the Gnexus 2 will come with a dual-core snapdragon. (a monster in terms of performance)

hmmm officesuite uses 300+mb! i was using it to read an e-book in pdf form and was shocked by the amount of ram it was using....and figured 1gb ram will never be enough. i guess the games show that its the app that has an issue then.....

Still no UK release date... this update better be good, very impatient here =p

The Asphalt 7 actually looks way better then the screenshot. Not sure why it came out so ugly.

BWT Asphalt 7 is free now from Samsung app store. Also I recommend to patch it with this. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1873599

Makes the game run very smooth around 50-60fps and with even better graphics. ;)

WHAT??? I have office suite hd with pdf and never used more than 50 mb, not even I open a 200 page document. All the time it stays below 50 mb ram usage. However, there is a better one and is in Samsung market for free: Polaris Office 4 - and it's opening every single pdf, not like the others
[Galaxy S III General] demlasjr:
Ok, check this out. I opened a huge pdf (18 mb with over 500 pages) in Polaris. Check the ram usage. There is still 200 mb free RAM in my phone :) Tried to open the same file in Officesuite and all I got was 'this file contains elements which cannot be displayed. I can post a print screen if you don't believe me :)

300 mb? Impossible. If really use some much, you better try to reinstall it because there can be a bug.
[Galaxy S III General] BOZG:
This is ICS? Polaris wasn't working on JB, at least by the time the last leak was out.

i still don't under stand why some people say 2 gig is wasted you don't hear them with 2 gig saying that its a wast we will have to wait but do no how long and see if jb helps or the problem is still there
[Galaxy S III General] MuertoKo:
Omfg we don't come to argue as we know we are right on wasted Ram...

Let me explain myself. If you have 1Gb and have always 200Mb unused that's wasted as memory management will free memory when you need it!

What is handy of 2Gb? That you can have those 2Gb completely FULL all time multitasking better. If you don't use it then it's wasted as well ..

So it just grants better multitasking for the absolute value, not for the free RAM :)

Only thing I am worried about is when Android 5 will come, if the 1 gig will be enough :) But I'm silently waiting for the S4...hope it will have 2-4 gigs of ram, will looks gorgeous like this one but better quality and no physical buttons...
[Galaxy S III General] got-petrol:
But as everybody else says if you have 2 gig its a wast so what are they going to say about 4 gig
[Galaxy S III General] MuertoKo:
Hope you are right :D

Omfg it's not a waste! It's a waste to have wasted Ram, but you can also just use :D

Why not never closing am app anymore? Just use "Home" to exit every app you use to keep it loaded and ready in one single click? THAT is using RAM ;)

[Galaxy S III General] Lannyx1:
if iphone 4s can run fast with 512 mb and galaxy nesus will be support at least for next 2 years i think the s3 can do much more than now,mutiview included
[Galaxy S III General] memebr:
indeed JB will be the last android version the SIII I9300 will have. the 4.1.1 will be the final android update to this device,

the 4.1.2 is out already for the GNexus users, and pretty soon the 4.2.0 will be out there.

i don't think the I9300 will have a stock 4.2.0 version, it will be more like a valuepack or no support at all.
[Galaxy S III General] FDisk80:
Sad but probably true.
[Galaxy S III General] kp.nikhil:
may or may not be true because galaxy s2 had gingerbread and then ics and so will hav jelly bean.. so s3 can still get 4.2.0
[Galaxy S III General] Meraklis56:
did you drink or smoke something?

If galaxy S3 doesnt get 4.2 android then which device gets it?Do you realize saying that all samsung devices that are out now,wont get 4.2?

Samsung doesnt want 10+ million customer unsatisfied and they know that we will demand stock.See what happens for exynos details ;)
[Galaxy S III General] leerock360:
Samsung doesnt want 10+ million customers unsatisified ? They have failed miserably then . Where isjb 4.1 already ? And im not talking about that polish dirt rom they threw up on the 24thof september. Instead of looking after its customers that bought their s3 's their busy announcing dirt duo phones with 3.15 mp cameras and crappy music phones. Do us a favour samsung and get your finger out and look after your customers.
[Galaxy S III General] memebr:
No sir, i did not smoked anything.

See what happens for exynos details, well, absolutely nothing happens, they said that they going to take a look, and they will never do it.

the S3 (I9300) will not get the 4.2 (the other one probably will, Snapdragons + Adreno 320 and 2gb RAM)

all the phones that will get the 4.2 are 2gb RAM for what i could see, otherwise there is no reason on all the OEM's making phones with those 2gb RAM, all the new high-end and mid to high-end phones are coming out with 2gb RAM.

the Gnexus 2 as example, not even a high-end phone.

samsung is giving zero ****s about us all!
[Galaxy S III General] demlasjr:
Yeah, the part with 2 gigs on the new nexus is kinda make me worry a bit.

Btw guys, did you see how Samsung increased the usable ram memory from 779 to 830 mb (or something like that) on the JB rom? The coolest thing (and I pray to God) will be if Samsung will release JB or 4.2 and instead of 830 mb will show 1.7 GB :D (preinstalled 2 gigs on all devices, but not fully enabled as Sammy just wanted to test the device first).
