Is Jelly Bean still on schedule?

this is bad news though, it means its no where near the final release :(

Can't comment on the leaked version but official must be ready as the they had S3s on show with fully working Jelly bean at the Vodafone Germany booth at IFA 2012.

Samsung Galaxy S3 Jelly Bean: Hands On [4G LTE]

Wouldn't be on show like that unless ready. Must be just working out release schedule.

I'm getting antsy for JB myself. I have CM10 on my Epic Touch and since the latest release that's actually stable, I hardly look at my S3. Tempted to root my S3 too, but was hoping for an official leak with touchwhiz on top so I can keep my motion features and not have two phones with the same thing on them. I am a touchwhiz fan.

I really hope so man. The leaks have been very disappointing and unstable...one leak after the other

There's been so much speculation as to when we'll get JB. It would make good business sense for Samsung to get it out ASAP. But again it depends on the carriers.

IMO those carriers who are getting the new Iphone really don't give a crap when they release JB because they know that they'll make mint on new Iphone. Personally I think it's going to be several month before we get it. I hope I'm wrong though.

If that's the case it might be this first time in History Tmobile releases it before anyone else :D

Had a scare! Looged onto PC and this popped up!

Nearly sh*t myself - yes here it is JB I thought!!!.

But no such luck. When I click on the popup and open Kies it still says I have latest firmware and setting\about device\software upgrade gives no joy either.

ah well exiting while it lasted :(

Relax dude, JB won't enable your phone to cook you dinner...I tried it for 10 mins. nothing special really, I see no diff. other than maybe it is 5% smoother when moving between one home screen and the other

just my 2 cents

no need to stress yourself so much about it :)
