JB - It's here. Official.

[GoldenDiamond]

Oh look. Another useless "Jellybean is here" / "When will jellybean be here" thread. Two pages of absolutely no actual information on anything, unless you're in Poland.

I downloaded online.

Everything available here:
[Stock Official JellyBean] I9300XXDLIB - Poland (24 Sept 2012) - xda-developers

hey look, someone who doesn't read and just assumes!
imagine if real customer service was like that.

I live in Canada. I got official JB. Apparently Canada = Poland.

How's your battery life? Mine was pretty good..but I have already noticed with this "update", that I am losing juice faster.

They better hurry up and give us the official OTA JB!!

My battery life is fine. I mean it could be better, but it could also be worse.

 

[Rud3Bwoy]

Officall JB and benchmark test with quadrant standard.

Enjoy.

run a geekbench instead for me?

Mine _seems_ to have gotten worse.

Hey GoldenDiamond, I think it's because your S3 is international version. I'm in Edmonton with ROGERS and there is no JB as of today. I have a feeling ROGERS won't be releasing it for a few months.

Here's what I have on the phone in the SETTINGS - ABOUT DEVICE:

Model number
SPH-L710

Android version
4.0.4

Baseband version
L710VPLI3

Kernel version
3.0.8-1092716
se.infra@SEP-109 #1
SMP PREEMPT Fri Sep 7 00:42:04 KST 2012

Build number
IMM76D.L710VPALI3

Hardware version
L710.14

Whatever this update was...it has caused my battery to drain faster just since this morning. My battery would normally be around 93% now (11AM EST USA) but now it is at 70%. I will be PISSED if this stupid OTA update causes my battery to drain faster...up till now I wasn't too upset.

What was this update I just got if not JB?

Anyone?

Sprint just OTA this for me today. Of course, when I got the notification, I initially thought I was among the first to get JB. Very excited until looked at the version number after installation. There really should be some sort of law against sending incremental updates when we drooling for JB.

Look on the bright side, you all could be with US Verizon. Easily the last to do any big update for a device. Well, Att may be worse, or a reservoir dog fight between them.

I am not counting on seeing a VZW update this year... if it does good but i think it will hit sometime 2013

Why is Poland so special?

well sympathetically speaking theyre in the middle of a poor peice of land between two super powers making it a prime war zone. haha

 

[thequeenscheese]

so can i in the uk officially use this poland version and manually update without rooting etc?

As mentioned earlier in this thread: you can only do that if you have the international version of this phone. That would be model number GT-i9300

 

[blenky]

Yes follow the instructions in first post in the following link. Note its for international S3 only.

Reading reviews there seems to quite a few issues with it. I expect the eventual UK version will be a newer build with bug fixes.

Enjoy.

My last quadrant score was +400 points on that, stock S3 int, no root, no over clock etc. On 4.0.4

To be honest, I would sit this one out. I installed this version of JB and went back to my previous rom after an afternoon. A lot of forced closes: my keyboard mainly, but also the launcher. It got very frustrating after a while.

 

[BynoUK]

I was running the leaked builds & I'd say DLI8 performed better on my phone than this official Polish release, the battery ain't great in comparison.

I'm just hanging fire till the UK official release now, can't be too far off.

yeppers, i know it's the international version. I didn't want the NA versions, prefer quad core and no LTE (longer battery life).

 

[Bearsyzf]

For you to get the update OTA do you have to keep your Wifi or GPS or sync connected ?

 

[kryzzay83]

Why is Poland so special?

Because we are cool.

 

[kryzzay83]

Newb over here. So with OTA JB update (when its available in my area). Does it wipe the entire phone, and you have to restore your backup? or will it just update your phone, and all your previous settings and installed software are still there.

No it won't wipe the entire phone. However it's recommended to do a factory reset as sometimes things screw up and you start getting force closes. I always factory reset and backup anything important first.

 

[kryzzay83]

I installed this Polish version and have no issues on my Australian (Optus branded) handset. I think the key thing here is that you need to do a factory reset after installation. Eliminates all the FC issues.

So far in testing, I've found one bug. When you press messages you get a pop up box explaining a motion feature. (double tap) Even when clicking "don't show this again" it still pops up. I fixed the problem by turning motion on instead. Small bug really and the only one I've found so far.

Everything else has been excellent.

My battery life is definitely better do. Currently 13 hours and 78% discharging with light to moderate use.

I just got the incremental update (81 mb) and my battery appears to be burning up. 13 hours and only 78%? If i didn't even touch my phone but left it on for 13 hours it'd probably do below that

 

[roush611]

Have they released it anywhere else or is Poland and the other little countries listed still it?

Last time I checked, Poland was not such a small country on the map of Europe

 

[kryzzay83]

bupolo,

Backup everything and factory reset.

99% of the time it fixes any issues and your battery life will go back to normal.

 

[kryzzay83]

Pretty much roush. Be patient you'll get it eventually. To be honest you're not really missing much anyway.
