I spoke with a reallly nice Verizon CSR, and she told me for sure it will be coming out soon. Lol.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] pepperdax:
I was told by a very knowledgeable CSR that my JB update was pushed yesterday.

It's fast very fast.

:good:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Wyvern49:
The most honest answer I've gotten from a CSR was they don't know. However, they usually get an email from Verizon telling them its coming about 2 weeks (and at least 1 week) prior to the release. They haven't gotten the email so probably not soon. Not particularly helpful but honest.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] cell128:
This reminds me of when the epic touch 4g came out I went to the sprint store to look at it and when I spoke to the CSR about how the 3g speeds were he said "I've had all of them and sprint is by far the fastest".

Is the leaked Jb with touchwiz 100% stable? And by 100% stable I mean just as stable as ICS touchwiz was, No "oh everything works except bla bla bla bla bla bla and bla"...

Hi, I have a Verizon S3 flashed to Boost Mobile. I tried to gain root by flashing a stock rooted Rom and messed up the flash. I had to take it back to be flashed again :( Now I'm more cautious before hand. I should have backed it up before attempting it, I know I know lol can anyone shed some light on how to update a flashed phone as well as how to root it. I could really use the help :)

Also after I messed up the boost flash I paniced and flashed a sprint kernel hoping this would fix the problem. Since then anything that I've tried to view including taking camera shots and web browsing if done in landscape mode will be upside down, any remedy for this problem? I know now... root first, flash later. :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] x714x:
Yes everything works lol. The last leak is probaly gonna be the OTA anyways. Just odin the K1 release, no need to root or unlock.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] geech72:
I heard that Verizon had scheduled the Jelly Bean release for Friday in New York. However the police felt that dropping small candies from a great height onto the tourist in time square might be dangerous so the whole thing was scrapped. Verizon is going back to the drawing board and we should be hearing new details about a release in 7 to 357 days.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Elite49:
Except in more then one ROM topic theirs people having this issue or that issue while these people do and don't. I want to wait for the legit real one since leaks always seem to have issues in every phone I've owned but this is killing me. I go into a topic going "Ok I'll finally update today..." then read the issues and go "Welp, **** that".
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] x714x:
You are talking about roms, im talking about the factory image. Everything works fine on the factory image. Also I rock JellyBeans and the TasteOfBeans builds and havent had a issue with anything not working at all.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] eman3316@optonline.net:
Um, no issues on the latest leak. Please share the issues you have read about.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] droidstyle:
people complain of issues with ota's aswell...also many dirty flash and blame the rom when problems arise. listen to what folks are saying...use the full wipe rooted k1 leak and enjoy!

I'm as neurotic and OCD as the next guy and have noticed no issues whatsoever in the latest K1 leak.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] blackhemi4x4:
the K1 leak is wonderful. The few issues that people have is because of a dirty flash.

There is a settle in period where the phone will download and sync and do its thing. A LOT of people complained about battery drain because of this. It does drain fast at first. Usually within a few hours, everything is back to normal.

Again, most of the talk, not all, but most in the ROM threads really come down to user error, bad apps, etc.

the latest stock leak really is smooth.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] isu8023:
will the OTA update still come thru if u flash this leak?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] dalrym05:
Its Verizon. Its never coming. My wife's incredible 2 has had the same ICS leak in it for like 6 months now. The only tho g their good at is having the best signal and charging the most money. But what can you do. All the other carriers suck even more.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] chamberc:
That's correct. Typically Verizon trails about 6 months on releases to non-Nexus products. If JB comes this year to the SIII it will be good luck for us, but no one should be holding their breath.

Important to note, that some of our jobs require our phones to be locked and unrooted. Sometimes it's by policy or restriction, as is the case with the Good client, either way, if your company restricts that either in writing or by software policy, you have to abide by it.

Official Samsung Jelly Bean update

So I've been chomping at the bits to update to Jelly Bean. I was until recently a big iPhone guy, but I liked android when I tried it. So I'm a noob to doing anything to my phone. I don't know if I want to just flash and install a rom, but I am interested in the official Samsung Jelly Bean update for the galaxy s3, not the leaked Verizon update (I don't want the Verizon junk apps or limitations in the OS like no wifi toggle in the notification screen). I guess samsung is only pushing this out to unlocked devices. Can I just unlock my phone and get the official samsung update and bypass Verizon?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kidhudi:
What are you talking about? you won't see JB from a verizon OTA for a while. just root and flash the latest leak rooted. it is the best we have so far
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] x714x:
No you cant. You should read the guides on how to root,unlock,install custom recovery,flash a rom before you do anything and ruin your phone. My advise is to know what you are doing before you try it, if in doubt ask in the forums. There is a wide range of roms you can choose from that will tickle your fancy, i.e. cleanrom light edition is a stripped down touchwiz rom just like you are running. All the verzion and samsung crap has been removed.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] landshark68:
There is no official Samsung Jelly Bean update. Samsung does create the updates, but they are pushed out by the carriers not by Samsung. Samsung has to create different updates for Verizon, AT&T, Sprint, and T-Mobile because each carrier wants different things. The carriers release the updates when they want to. Verizon has typically been the worst at timely releases. You cannot get an official release directly from Samsung.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] droidstyle:
Not trying to bash you but the answer to your question was literally answered a couple posts back. There is no OTA...the leaked K1 is damn good and might aswell be the OTA. Go to the dev section, read the guide stickies, refer to section 5, flash prerooted K1 via odin, install tibu pro version, and debloat yourself...its like popping microwave popcorn. :good:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] llama555:
Is it best to just flash the new 4.1 roms with twrp and of course wipe everything or to use ODIN first with a fresh install? Also should i restore my stock image or can I go straight from Paranoid? Thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] 1ManWolfePack:
1st android phone?

If not, curious to why you'd believe an OTA is "bug-free" or any bit better than a stock ROM package.

You serious? Want a new radio? We got about 6-7 of those. Stock odexed? Deodexed? Check and check. Verizon leak. X3.

I think you're just bored, 14 and trying to boost your thread counts. Someone should close this crap.

Later.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] 1ManWolfePack:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Imatoasta:
The Vzw and Samsung engineers are still staring at that sg3 in the middle of the room wondering what the **** to do. All they need to do is release the source. **** TW.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Elite49:
Samsungs been done with the update for our phones probably for 2 months now. Its all on Verizon and they just hate anything that isn't a RAZR phone. They just got JB yet we're here waiting still.... you know a phone that is way, WAY more popular then any of the RAZR's probably combined?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
I wouldn't say Samsung has been done with our JB OTA for two months, the most recent build was dated (judging by the kernel signature date) roughly 2-3 weeks ago. I'd definitely agree with this phone being more popular than those two Motorola phones though.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ECrispy:
Doesn't matter how popular the GS3 is. Droid is Verizons brand and they will do anything possible to push it.

I think updating a phone more than 2 months old must be against policy at VZW or something.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tonu42:
The answer to this question is simple. Cause its verizon.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] emichroc:
And now AT&T just released their update on kies... Are we the the last in the world now? Yea I'm running the K1 leak. If it wasn't for the network in my area id leave vz in a heartbeat.

That's what frustrates me the most. I'm pretty sure the GS3 brings more revenue to Verizon vs their Droid line. And yet, they seem to focus on their Droid lineup the most. As I also said before, f*** their droid lineup.

[HTC One X] jo3yp:
I updated to JB last night, fully charged my phone, unplugged it and then went to sleep. When I woke up I only had 50% battery left, previously on ICS when the phone was idle over night it used between 2-5% max.

I then charged the phone again this morning and now 3hrs 10mins later, I'm already down to 66% and I have hardly used the phone. It's showing as:

Whatsapp 36% !?!

Android OS 17%

Android System 16%

Facebook 7%

HTC Sense 6%

Mediaserver 4%

Camera 3%

Is anyone else having any problems? With ICS I would charge my phone in the morning at work and it would easily last until the following morning, unless I was heavily using Facebook or playing a game. I thought JB was supposed to improve the battery life, not make it worse.
[HTC One X] mickfitz:
Give it a few charging cycles before complaining.

Have you rebooted the phone since the update.?
[HTC One X] Rikcon:
Some apps still are not quite complitable with jb,especially with new HTC sense libs or api.
[HTC One X] jo3yp:
Not me personally, but it did reboot by itself randomly. It's never done that on ICS. I think I'll do as you suggest, give it another day or so. If it still hasn't improved I'll try a factory reset.

What does the Power Saver option actually do? Does it switch off all data sync, lower the screen brightness etc?
[HTC One X] Zlotin:
Do a full wipe. Some apps could be screwed up while updating.
[HTC One X] hatemk:

3 hours and I lost 20% quick. Turn off power saver and I'm actually saving power.

Hmm I actually think power saver is an amazing feature. 2 hours gone by and I just lost 6% battery (normal usage: message, whatsapp, maps, xda). Even though typing felt weird because no vibrations.

[HTC One X] mickfitz:
I think they have paired the app with the screen time and gives you a total percentage.

No screen time hours is pretty ****ty.
[HTC One X] PhilipL:
Hi

Most likely an app that isn't backing off nicely. When an app finds your data/Wi-Fi is off is probably getting in a panic that it can't call the mothership (or download some ads!) and is waking your phone or keeping it awake constantly while it tries and tries.

That app would cause the same issue if you turned off data and Wi-Fi manually.

Regards

Phil
[HTC One X] mickfitz:
Until you wake the phone up again. It dropped from 90% to 81% in an instant.
[HTC One X] monchee:
You can manually disable the no vibration feature of the power saver.

[HTC One X] saketh321:
So I installed android revolution 15.0 and the battery doesn't seem to be good at all... Don't know if its a JB thing or this particual Rom. When I check the usage number on power section, it says android os has a 2 hr wake up time... I also installed betterbattery stats and I am getting this wl1271_wake under the kernel section and this weird surfaceflinger under the processes section... Any insight would be helpful, thanks
[HTC One X] jo3yp:
I performed a factory reset last night - well the new equivalent in JB, which is go to backup and reset the phone.

After the reset, I setup my Google, Exchange, Hotmail and Facebook sync. The only app I installed was Whatsapp. Managed to get the phone to 72% charge before unplugging and going to sleep, I also made sure the initial syncs had all completed before unplugging the charger. This time it went from 72% to 30%, so 40% used while sleeping instead of 50%.

Looking at the stats, I think the battery counters are screwed up. When I first checked this morning, it showed Whatsapp had used just 2%. 10 mins later after a couple of messages, the battery had dropped to 28% and Whatsapp then showed as 32%.

Android OS never used to show much usage, the screen was always the thirstiest, but this morning it Android OS showed as ~30% which then dropped to 22% after using Whatsapp. Perhaps this is due to the screen time being integrated into the app counters as mickfitz said.

As you can see from the pic below, Whatsapp doesn't appear to be keeping the phone alive during the night as Phil suggested:

Surely others here use Whatsapp? Is no one else getting massive battery drain since the OTA JB update?

The only other things I can think of are the company policy settings which are applied to the phone when I setup my Exchange account, or Google Now - but for this I'm just using the default settings.

[EDIT] I'm not using Power Saver mode btw and I don't want to if it shuts off data while idle - it will mean I don't receive Whatsapp alerts

[EDIT 2] I've just had a proper look at the 2nd screenshot. The line chart doesn't match up with the battery % shown. It was definitely at 72% when I went to sleep yet the chart only shows 50%. I'll leave it charging all evening and check the line chart to make sure it's at 100% then give it another go tonight.

Mate I had updated to jb yesterday night, used Whatsapp, no problems whatsoever. I slept with 40% at 1 am, wifi on and background data enabled, right now, its 10 am, and my battery is sitting at 32%. I even used facebook, whatsapp and the stock browser for 15-20 mins in between. So far so good. As everyone is suggesting check for some rogue app! :)
[HTC One X] jo3yp:
I did a factory reset last night after the OP and only installed Whatsapp, so it can't be some rogue application. Have you configured Google Now?

If it's not that the only other possibility is the exchange sync, but I had no issues with that on ICS.

This works. I had the same battery issues in the same update. Wiped the phone, redid everything. Battery levels returned to normal.

Yes configured and tested! No problems yet :)

I also would like to do a factory reset, but I don't want to reinstall every app manually afterwards. Is it possible to back them up and put them back on together?

Would that just make the reset useless?

Tbh the battery was never great on the one x anyway. I can't tell much difference with JB

Which rom/kernel are U using?

Awesome battery life!
[HTC One X] chris_sirhc:
I'm new here - and I'm experiencing the same issue. Totally bummed out. Unplugged my phone at 100% in the morning - strolled to the bus stop and 10min later, it's dropped by 2%. Surfed on Chrome for 15min and it's down by 30%. Crazy!

I'm prowling my local community forums to see if anyone else is experiencing this - hopefully a pattern emerges.

Let me know if you need some stats or software versions etc. - for comparison's sake.

EDIT: Check out this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1801378&page=6 seems like the nexus7 is also having a similar JB issue. From there, seems like the issue is Media Scanner is eating up battery life. Do you have a lot of files (or photos) on your One X?
[HTC One X] corckie:
Same here. Since I'm on JB (and I say about ARHD 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, Maximus rom in any JB version, Insert coin) I NEVER EVER had 20hrs+ of battery life. It just drains like crazy. Mostly it lasts for 10hrs. Last time I did full wipe, deleted EVERYTHNG from my SD card and left my phone for night. Morning I had like 40% of battery. When I go for viper rom - no problem, 5% is gone over night. From what I see my phone rarely goes deep sleep, it is 90% time on 51mhz. So I guess there is some kernel related problem. To me it happens only on JB roms. No problem on ICS roms.
[HTC One X] compe:
On Jelly-Bean I had always battery-drain, because facebook won't stop to sync with the internet.
[HTC One X] jo3yp:
Thanks for the link, but I don't have a lot of media on the phone currently at all as it was in for repair a month ago and I had completely wiped the storage, so it's only got about a month worth of pictures on it.

For me the battery drain seems to be mainly caused by the WiFi connection.

1st night

Updated to JB, kept all my previous applications and settings with no wipe, left WiFi on, battery drained from 100% - 50% over night.

50% drain

2nd Night

Factory reset, configured Exchange, Hotmail & Facebook accounts and only installed Whatsapp. Battery drained from 70% - 30%.

40% drain

3rd night

Switched off WiFi - Battery drained from 60% - 52%.

Only 8% drain.

With ICS, it was the opposite. Leaving WiFi enabled the entire time, saved battery as 3G used far more battery and the phone would automatically connected when I was at work, home or my girlfriends. Now on JB if it's searching for a WiFi or constantly connected to the same WiFi the battery seems to just pour juice away.
[HTC One X] hdr87:
Hi Guys,

I have seen a peculiar issue on my HOX (stock ROM JB Update, no root). When i connect by HOX to the PC to copy files using MTP, the battery drains faster. Actually the battery should charge since we are using USB, but it drains. To confirm this, i charged to 100% and then connected to my pc. BTW i removed the old drivers & installed a fresh set. My PC is Win 7 enterprise. Then I tried to copy data from HOX to my PC (to backup). Surprisingly now after i disconnected the USB cable the battery was down to 70%!!!!!!!!!!!!!. Crazy stuff the battery drains instead of charging.

Next to completely confirm this, I got hold of a usb charge cable (one which does not have tx, rx connection only the V+ & V-), and then connected the HOX to my PC. This time the phone was only charging as expected, no data.

I am not sure what is going on here. I am trying to backup my data from HOX & then do a complete reset (blow up every piece of data on the phone) and then test. I just hope this goes away, if it does not i am going back to ICS and i will need your assistance in gettting back ICS.

I will keep you guys posted, this may take some time.

The battery life is alright, even little better than ARHD 9.7
[HTC One X] snipervn:
Lets thing about this: Phone network (Mobile data setting)

- Weaker signal, more battery drain.

- In auto mode, if WCDMA (3G) signal strength is weak, the phone will switch between WCDMA and GSM (2G) and auto return to WCDMA when it found the signal. In this case, it will turn off/on network each time of switching and this action take a lot of power.

- When you turn off wifi, if mobile data still on, all connection activities automatically change to use by 3G and it drain a lot of battery. So, turn off wifi but still keep 3G on will drain more battery than keep wifi on.

- If your wifi signal is low/poor, it will drain you battery too.

As I see in your screen captures, you are using WCDMA with data on.
