Regarding the reduced resets fix in the update...not sure if this refers to spontaneous resets/reboots that may have been a problem for some or for those that have needed to reset manually because of glitches that are repeatedly occurring.
I know for me, my S3 has started to lock up for no reason. I'll go to check my phone and the screen will be dark (except for the notification light) and there will be no way to get the screen back on or get the phone to function. Not even an incoming call will unfreeze the phone or get it to ring. All buttons will be non-responsive and the only way to get beyond it is with a battery pull and reboot. Problem is, though, that quite often as soon as it reboots it freezes again. I finally resorted to the dreaded factory reset and it still started misbehaving again soon after. Interestingly, when it has been in a loop of rebooting (with battery pull required for this) and then refreezing, getting home and attaching it to the power cord has broken the cycle. Wierd, huh? One hunch is that it may be related to a recent wallpaper I installed, NFL Live 2013, so I may uninstall and see what happens from there. Or, maybe I'll just see if this new system update resolves the matter.
In any case, just a long way of saying that maybe the reduced reset feature of this Samsung/Verizon update has to do with problems like I just described. Guess we'll wait and see.
