Hey Guys,

Good news! The wait time is almost over for Samsung Galaxy SIII users. From tomorrow, 19th October '12, you'll be be able to upgrade to the much awaited 4.1 Jelly Bean update over Wi-Fi or via Kies.

care to be a little more specific :-p?? i put my phone details in firmware and files page... came up with this...

http://www.sammobile.com/firmware/?page=3&model=GT-I9300&pcode=O2U&os=1&type=1#firmware

I'm not sure how much more specific I can be? There are additional files with downloads next to them on the page you linked. Each of these contains a PIT file. Once unzipped put the PIT file in the PIT section of Odin and the PDA in the PDA section. DO NOTHING ELSE except press start when the com box goes yellow.....

hello people,just got the new "jellybean" update here,well nothing special if u ask me,a few new icons a couple of new options and that's about it really.A whole load of fuss over nothing.Can't see any difference in the fact it's supposed to b "smoother",maybe a few more restarts would do the trick? Remote controls still doesn't work either,the slider is greyed out,thought the much awaited update would resolve this.Never mind though phone still works.All this hype over not much really.So there you go,is jelly bean all that!?
