I guess you meant 4.1.2, as 4.2.1 is not yet officially, just the leak, hence no OTA or KIES update possible
I think he means he's received the XXEMB1 4.2.1 official update which superceeds the older XXELLA 4.2.1 updare from a few months ago that appeared to be the cause of regular system freezes. I got my device back from Samsung yesterday claiming they fixed it but it still froze 3 times before lunch. Then I got the XXEMB1 update this morning and so far so good. I've been running Facebook and Google Chrome over wifi and mobile data with no lockups.

No - 4.2.1 is not officially available. For weeks yet.
Fail.

Quite right lenash, its the standard s3 keyboard which is renowned to be rubbish. On a side note I even bought swiftkey but it keeps deactivating itself. Just one of many issues ive noted since moving from the lt15i arc to the s3
Easy way to find out.
Browse Root with ES or Solid Explorer. Sort by modified date and browse /system/app etc..
You didn't provide enough information.
Who knows what it was.. and as you now know, the wrong place to ask.

I would love a detailed changed log, I was on I9300XXELLA before now i have updated today to I9300XXEMB1 the only thing i spotted was they added more bloatware Play Magazines & Play Music that I can't uninstall unless I root, and now taking Screenshots now feels glitchy!

Hi, sorry if this has been asked before but I promise I have tried to find a solution prior to posting here.
This morning I have received the notification of software update I guess to JB and I have selected cancel download by mistake. Since then I cannot get the update back on my phone, I have tried scanning for the update and all sorts but nothing seems to work.
Anyone here have any idea how to get the phone back to update? I would prefer not to use kies if possible.
Hi
Menu> settings> about device> system updates?
Or maybe a reboot.

Hi tried both but no luck, thanks for response though
Keep auto update on maybe? If not then dont worry. Its probably just some bug fixes. If your desperate tho maybe you can find the stock rom updated v. And flash it in odin

You're welcome.
If it's any consolation it won't be Jellybean update as the rumour mill suggests there won't be an official JB release until late August.

Jelly bean isnt planned for any device yet. They still havnt released a bug fix update. That comes first until everythings fixed. After that then they update the os v. Its always been like that

If you couldn't download the update manually, just wait. It'll come again in a day or two.
Now that every site is telleing us Jellybean is coming august 29th,but nothing appears on sammobile,except 3 JB Leaks.WTF
Will XX region updated before next week?
1. Aug 29th which timezone? Over in the US its like 7am right now so there is still a lot of aug 29 remaining
2. Having to wait a couple hours more wont kill you
3. Learn patience... not having any wont bring you far in life and you'll be disappointed a lot

Thx for these kind words because we're 15:00PM in Algeria ,and one more thing i'm patient more than you ever will be.
Samsung has never said it will be released on the 29th. Only websites speculated this.. Expect an announcement at today's Note 2 conference with regards to the JB update. :good:
Samsungs event details for today along with times for each country...

It's a lesson not to to rely on speculation as fact, Samsung have not issued any release dates for JB, it's just rumours.
Samsung never confirmed this, but we want it to be true. I am also waiting for the JB update, and think it will be available soon in a couple of days or so. At least I wish.
Samsung is not known for their speediness in releasing software/firmware updates of any kind.. get used to it.

Has it not occurred to you that the conference hasn't even started yet so they haven't even announced it yet. Are you also aware there are different time zones on the planet?
Another thing to remember is, it has never been promised it was coming today which it won't. It was someone's guess that it would....

I've got today an OTA for my SGS3. I was a bit shocked, they really sent the JB update. After installing the update nothing changed visually. I've given a call The Samsung Customer Service and they told me it was a bug fix for 4.0.4 ICS. I'm from HUNGARY having a T-Mobile SGS3. I don't think so they will air another firmware update today as well after the Event in Berlin...

Oh, and this is well known here. Check the last few pages of the Indian thread. You'll see there have been calls.
Indian customer care has gone crazy they are calling every body and telling them to update to jelly bean but they forgot to release it in the first place

You are not the first. Up to now, still no update for India.... Btw, what's the point calling customers about update? Just push it the phones, done. Right?

Hello.
When I woke up this morning, my phone wanted to update. Since I've heard that there will be an update to Galaxy S2 to 4.1.1 in November, I got really excited and ran the update.
It rebooted and optimized my apps and all that.
When it was finished, nothing looked different. I checked in the "about" in the settings, and it's still 4.0.4. If that's so, then what the heck did it update???

Uhm... He said update is STILL 4.0.4 which means he already had it... That didn't help much.
And as for OP, considering we don't know which rom version you had and now which you have, there's no way to guess what your update did. Must be a very minor change.

I also got the update, but since I am running a custom kernel, the update failed.
Some people says it's an update from XWPLW to XWPLX. Did you check your build number?

Yeah, I was on the original 4.0.4 from the beginning. Non-rooted.
As for the build number, it's XWPLY now. Don't know what it was before... I've only had this phone for almost one month now, before I had an HTC Wildfire, that sucked. But this phone is crashing a lot, so I'm looking forward to a fix for that. Perhaps this update was a fix, because I haven't had to remove the battery all day today... We'll see.

Hey guys,
What's your experience with 4.3 update ? It seems like a lot of people are complaining about it.
Is it a go or should i stay with 4.0.4?
I want to update to 4.3 only because of buttery-smooth performance that Google claims it to be after the update
I know that first OTA update was a complete dissaster but after that Samsung released a fix for it, so is it really fixed with that new update or it's still buggy ?
So what's your opinion ? Should i update or stay on 4.0.4 or perhaps wait for 4.4?
I hope 4.4 will have much less problems
Thanks in advance,
Slim Shady
