Can understand it for the first or second gen iPhone, because Apple may have not made enough, but at this stage it's done on purpose

There was a queue for certain versions of the Galaxy S3 due to manufacturing problems (i.e. actual supply problems, not done on purpose)

Re: Samsung Galaxy S3
A google search should sind Mobile ODIN for Samsung phones and sammobile.com for the official Polish ROM.

Re: Samsung Galaxy S3
no one who does not know what Odin is should be advised to use Odin without first fully researching the ins and outs of such a program

Re: Samsung Galaxy S3
There are guides and videos on sites and youtube. To flash a ROM is not hard at all.

Well obviously not as its the responsibility of the person whose phone it is. They they don't feel comfortable then don't try it.

Re: Samsung Galaxy S3
OTA update for this phone is now out. Looked on forums and i think its update for JB. One of the forums takes me to this page http://www.sammobile.com/firmware/?p...ype=1#firmware and that is JB AFAIK. I started to download the update but if its JB then i will loose Sky Go so cancelled it. Anyone updated it and if so is it JB?
EDIT: I am on O2 and did SW update in settings and it finds and update.
