JB update for Unlocked phones - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi
I have unlocked my T-Mobile SGS3 so I can use it on Vodafone. But how will I know when my update is ready?
Who do I wait for? Or just wait for Lies?
I had a contract GS1 and waiting for Vodafone takes a while.
Thanks AndroidAl

when a new release comes out just flash it with Odin

That's a good point, just 10 days to go in that case.
Thanks dude

Sent from my SGH-I717M using xda premium
Got up early...Also downloading now!!!!!!!:victory::victory::victory::victory::victory::victory:
I don't know why I am so excited about.... What I really want is one of the debloated roms from here.
I am just waiting for the devs to have more time with the official source before I jump in...Hopefully this update will tide us over.
I Just updated and nothing changed it just hanged after a while. Maybe it had to do with my phone being at 9% batter.

I think the premium suite is just an upgrade to the s pen apps we already had...It's a bigger deal in the US as I don't think they had them on gingerbread.
Hi all,
I have a rooted, unlocked Bell Note on Telus.
Does anyone know if the update un-root or relock my phone?
Thanks...

Hey Bud,
I too am using a Rogers Branded Galaxy Note w/ Bell Rom on Bells network and had no issues upgrading at all! My bell MobileTv app still works crystal clear!
Dessert for Breakfast is always SWEEEEEEET!
Got my update! Running perfectly. My Bell Note is a lot smoother now.

A little different than your setup, but should work for me as yours did.
At least I hope so!
Upgrade was a succes!! Just powered on the phone and there was the notification for the ICS update!

OTA wifi. Or you can use 251MB of your data if you want. :-D
Your modem/baseband needs to be stock GB I believe in order for the update to pickup. This was the case for a co-worker's Note that I flashed. (rogers)

I'm exacly in the same situation, using an unlocked Bell phone on Telus, rooted with a custom Rom.
Will the kies method work by doing a firmware recovery?

Motorola Brazil started today ICS OTA

As you can see, its the same version we already have but now we have warranty back

So... Should be wait? I already restart and nothing i was expecting maybe the notification pops up again

It's an upgrade for GingerBread not for ICS. If you're already with ICS, of course, you'll not see any update. The message however will come to everyone. At least, we have our warranty back! Cheers
Finally! Now just wait for the update to JB :laugh:

I'll not be on this waiting thing. Jelly Beam will not arrive this year.. One of the devices I was waiting for will be released sep 19 here and willl come with a locked bl unfortunally. ~>Razr maxx hd.
I'll get One X+ soon as it comes out later this month.
We need more reports to confirm our update. Did you get the update message?
Edit just read ur report. Thx
Cheers

I was ironic about the update JB. The history of Motorola does not allow us to dream. I received notification of ICS but it was with the last rom. I am thinking seriously about buying a HTC next year. A pity that only meet the Mercado Livre in Brazil.

I was told by samsung "towards the end of the month"
so read into that what you want.
Patience is a virtue.
There is a Kies update today if that helps?
Damn Samsung has to learn a lesson or two from Apple; we have been waiting endlessly & Samsung is yet to release JB

EDIT 2: JB is out.
EDIT: apparently this update isn't jelly bean, but a major update nonetheless. It appears to be uninstallable, so don't be surprised.

My internet is kinda slow on wifi and my data is over already. Its at 28%.
Sent from my LG-E970 using xda app-developers app
While to my limited knowledge, that is too small to be JB, that is still a great size.
I look forward to seeing what is in it.
Yeah, it can't be JB size-wise. I wonder why it is so big though.
I updated my roommate's s3 to jb last night. Wish I paid attention to the size when I did it.

The Korean JB leak was over 1GB..
Nexus is De bloated. Our JB would probably be larger than 300 gb considering all the bloat that will come with it.

Yep. The nexus roms and CM roms are slimmed as much as possible. They are the base roms with no Gapps, no LG stuff.
well, i bought the phone in ATT in USA
and bring to Brazil....
since that i always receive an authentication error
when i search OTA's...i never got any OTA
so, some tip to solve that???
A majority of us live in the states, considering this is a AT&T thread.. Not sure how we're supposed to help you when you took your phone to a different country. Hopefully there's someone though. Good luck!

The only way to do that is wait till lg releases the lgnsp files for it or whoever does that and do it though that program. I could be wrong but idk
there's so annoying...
so i never will have my phone updated???
please need to exist some way to do that!!!!!

New to DNA hi!

Hello everyone I'm coming from HTC one S. I still have the phone but I joined up with Verizon left T-Mobile. Couldn't stand the bad to no reception I had at my job. I was pretty hesitant to get this phone because I know it's been about for about 6 months and there's probably another phone around the corner but I really couldn't wait with the bad service so here I am. I really like the phone so far haven't rooted yet and planned to wait awhile but there's no button remap on stock heard it was removed do guess I'll be rooting soon!

Well I did the update the official update that came with the phone. And I wonder why do we have 2 dev forums ?
Sent from my HTC6435LVW using xda premium
If you took the ota you'll not be able to root it for the time being.
And as far as the 2 dev forums.
