I think that's googd news for Galaxy s3 and hope that coming soon with sc 03e

Android 4.3 Jelly Bean update now rolling out for Samsung Galaxy S III (GT-I9300)

After releasing Android 4.3 update for the Galaxy S4, Samsung has finally started rolling out the new update for the Galaxy S III (GT-I9300). Galaxy S III users were waiting for this update for several months now as Samsung didn’t update the Galaxy S III and the Galaxy Note II to Android 4.2, and the devices were still running a year old version of Android. We are still not sure why Samsung skipped the Android 4.2 update as we do know that Samsung did internally test a few Android 4.2 builds for the Galaxy S III but never released them and stopped development in midway.

There are quite a lot of changes and improvements in the new Android 4.3 firmware over Android 4.1.2. Samsung has completely changed the core UI to the one found on the Galaxy S4 and Galaxy Note 3, even the setting app has been completely overhauled with a new tabbed interface. The bad news is that even though Samsung has changed the core UI elements, it’s still using the same old original Galaxy S III launcher and widgets. Also, Samsung hasn’t implemented Samsung Knox yet, but we may see it in future builds of Android 4.3. Samsung doesn’t provide an official change log for its updates but after testing a few internal builds and this official one, we can give you folks our own list of changes and improvements we have noticed.

CHANGES AND IMPROVEMENTS IN ANDROID 4.3 UPDATE

- GALAXY GEAR Support

- TRIM Support (Makes the device much faster)

- ANT+ Support

- Core UI elements updated to the ones on the Galaxy S4 (Galaxy S4′s theme all over)

- New Samsung Keyboard

- GPU drivers have been updated (Higher GPU benchmark scores)

- New Lockscreen: Multiple Widgets, improved ripple effect than Android 4.1.2, ability to change clock size and set a personal message

- New Screen modes (From S4): Adapt Display and Professional Photo

- Daydream

- Driving mode

- Actionable notifications

- Move-to-SD-card feature

- New Camera mode : Sound and Shot

- New Additions in Notification Centre

- Completely revamped Settings UI (Tabbed interface – Exactly like the Galaxy S4)

- Implementation of Voice controls (Let’s you control various parts of the phone using voice commands – Galaxy S4 feature)

- New Samsung Apps: Calculator, Clock, Contacts, Gallery, Music

- Full screen Samsung apps

- New S-Voice (from Galaxy S4)

- Found more? Tell us about them in the comments below!

The new software update is being rolled out in phases, so it may not yet be available in your country at the moment but don’t worry it will arrive very soon. If your device is carrier branded then it might take sometime as the update has to get improved by the carrier first and only then Samsung will make it available for your device. For now, the new software update is only available in Ireland.

Slim 4.3 Build 2

I tried to cook the unofficial i9305 Slim 4.3 Build 2 but I'm also getting the messed up boot screen. I would really appreciate it if someone could upload a cooked ROM for the latest Slim.

When I cook a rom it says it's successful but whenever I flash it the screen flickers and kind of shifts to the right. I was able to flash the 4.3 that is in this guide but my mobile data didn't work. It looked like my APNs were there but I'm not 100% sure what APN I'm looking for specifically.

Was there something wrong with the kernel?

I downloaded the Slim Bean 4.3 Build 2 for i9305 from link. I will cook it, try it once more on my phone and then share you the link.
[Galaxy S III General] MysticRyuujin:
sc02e?

That would be awesome.

So I noticed that when I went to use the cooker, I went into command prompt an used the make_japanized_rom_sc03e.bat file but in the output of the program I see it references "sc02e" and I can't help but wonder if there's something wrong with the current cooker?

I'm getting the latest version it from here:

github / kbc-developers / make_japanized_ROM

Is that the right cooker? I've even gone through the trouble of creating a fresh Windows XP virtual machine and just installing JDK 6u45 and trying to use the cooker there but I get the exact same results :(

I made sure there were no spaces in any of the files or paths too.

---------- Post added at 02:27 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:11 AM ----------

Ok so I'm a totally idiot.

So the answer is NO that is not the correct cooker. The correct cooker is the one found in the tutorial haha:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=41998082&postcount=293

After I used that cooker to cook the rom it booted just fine. In my defense I used that cooker the first couple times but I must have been doing something else wrong so I thought I would be clever and use the latest cooker but that's apparently not at all the right thing to do :)

Sorry guys. After it didn't work the first time I tried to get creative and I should have just stuck with the tutorial versions of things.
[Galaxy S III General] :
No. But it was my first kernel and I was afraid that my kernel which is not tested would destroy your phones.

Any luck with it?
[Galaxy S III General] MysticRyuujin:
Mobile Data

I can't get mobile data to work. When I flash the SlimROM all of my APNs are gone

I tried to put them back in but I'm not 100% sure I'm doing it right either. If I flash back to a stock or stock rooted ROM the APNs are there and it works fine but I don't know how to make it work :(

---------- Post added at 03:45 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:29 AM ----------

Nevermind, I got it to work, I asked a friend to send me a screen shot of his APNs from a non flashed device, just had to fix some settings and set spmode as my default.
[Galaxy S III General] majidkhan:
Not Tried

I am sorry. I saw the post before but i could not get time to try it.

Just asking, What harm will it bring to phone if i flash it? Can't i fix that with nandroid backup?
[Galaxy S III General] :
Unpredictable. Because I am a noob and this is my first kernel build.

It may work like a charm without any issue, or get your phone bricked completely.

A kernel can affect on whole your device, even boot-loaders.

You can't fix it with nandroid if boot-loaders are destroyed.

Hi

"Make sure you:

Have the cooker file path with NO SPACES

The ROM name has NO SPACES

You have JDK 6 installed... not JDK 7, JDK 6

Copy the ROM in the same folder as the file named 'make_japanized_ROM_SC03E.bat'

Now drag and drop the ROM you want cooked

-Choose Option 1 for 4.2 ROMS

-Choose Option 2 for 4.3 ROMS

Yeap! Lack many customization than other Custom ROM like Carbon, AOKP even CM10.1. But for me the problem is device is very hot while using WIFI (the issue like MIUI Android 4.1.x ROM and not happen with MIUI Android 4.2.2). I am waiting for updates too.

[Galaxy S III General] IparryU:
Try unmounting and remounting the card in CWM.

if that doesn't work, then take out the card and reinsert the card with the phone on.

"Insert SIM card."

Thanks for the reply! I tried re-inserting the SIM card when the phone was on, but it didn't change my issue. I looked for the mounting of the SIM card in CWM but couldnt find it. Should it be under the same menu as the SD card mounting? Any other recommendations?

EDIT: I also tried 20131126 with the same issue. I noticed alot of the I9305 guys had the same issue. They mention the SIM lock, but I have never locked my SIM.
[Galaxy S III General] IparryU:
My appologies, I was thinking memory card for some reason... damn whiskey...

anyway. you need to unlock your card because it comes locked.

details are in my guide and I updated the stock ROM with the LK5 modem link so there are no more dl issues with mediafire/hotlink/whatever.
[Galaxy S III General] chooch79:
Insert SIM card

No worries. When I purchased my phone I had Docomo unlock it and I have used it unlocked in the US w/prepaid SIMs, so I never followed the unlock guide when I rooted it.

I just followed your unlock guide,reflashed the CWM6.0.4.5, and then the CM11-20131204. It still says "Insert SIM card. You need to refer to the SIM card instructions that came with your phone."

Thanks again for the help! Is there anything else I should try? Would a debug log help? (if so, how do I go about that?)
[Galaxy S III General] IparryU:
Just to confirm, did you do the unlock procedure or not?

[Galaxy S III General] chooch79:
Currently going back to stock (slow!) to try the lock/unlock recommendation. After you went to 4.4 does your device say its a SC03E or does it say its a GT-I9305. I noticed while it was 4.3.1 it says SC03E and on 4.4 it says GT-I9305. Do you think this has anything to do with it?

Yes still in Japan.

---------- Post added at 10:02 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:31 PM ----------

After re-reading this part of your recommendation, I want to clarify: LK5, CM10.1.3, and CM10.2 all work fine w/ no SIM issues. The SIM issue is when I install CM11.

Anyway, I completed the lock/unlock, CWM6.0.4.5, CM11 and still get the "Insert Sim card" message.
