Samsung Galaxy S3 Jelly Bean now available
I have an unlocked Samsung Galaxy S3 which is currently downloading and installing Jelly Bean from Kies.
Others with unlocked phones who have been patiently waiting should connect up to Kies and give it a go.

Re: Samsung Galaxy S3 Jelly Bean now available
There have been loads of rumours (Coming soon..sorry wrong thread :-)) about the upgrade. I've got an S2 on VM mobile whether we are waiting for VM to give the go ahead or not I don't know. Checked mine today but no sign of an update yet

The s2 update isn't due 'till November. And I'd doubt it'll start in the UK.

Re: Samsung Galaxy S3 Jelly Bean now available
Its also available as an OTA update. I did mine today as the update notification popped up about 12.30pm today.
So far much smoother and some nice new touches like, the folders and new expanded notifications and Block mode.

Re: Samsung Galaxy S3 Jelly Bean now available

Dealbreaker for me unfortunately.

Re: Samsung Galaxy S3 Jelly Bean now available
Technically there is now no Flash on any new Android phone - unless you manage to sideload it from an APK
Adobe have removed it from the Play Store

Re: Samsung Galaxy S3 Jelly Bean now available
Adobe stopped production of Flash mobile so Google decided to just remove it from the system.
However its very easy to get hold of the APK and get it working. I've already done so.
Follow this guide
