What will become of the Samsung Galaxy S3? And the Galaxy Note 2? Well, certainly both devices remain in use, the future weeks. But still is not clear when Android 4.3 Jelly Bean will be playing on the two “2012er” flagships.

So what happened? Well, for months has been proclaimed about the rollout of Android 4.3 to the Android 4.2.2 for the Galaxy S3 and Note 2 was unceremoniously skipped. This surprised not only us – but also many users who initially remained irritated. Three weeks ago, then Samsung announced the rollout of Android 4.3 officially for the Galaxy S3, Galaxy Note 2 and S4. The launch of Android 4.3 for the current flagship was almost immediately – even in Germany, the firmware is already distributed since last week also for S4 devices with o2 branding

Ireland launched just over a week then the rollout for the Samsung Galaxy S3. A short time later, the firmware in Austria could be obtained from the network operator and A1 in Switzerland via Swisscom. And immediately it rained virtually comments from neighboring countries: the system is completely unstable, the home screen hangs, apps load an eternity, the battery goes faster in the knee – whether of the many “problems” we rubbed wonder our eyes: War Android 4.3 really been clear star

Whether these voices have also been heard by the South Korean IT Gigangen? Well, at least once the rollout was only stopped when the update was made in England and let their anger run free many users in forums. Meanwhile, Samsung has officially announced that is improved. In China, a version was already distributed with a different build date – this has raised speculation if it may have is a revised version. But: Confirmed this is not

Coordination problems with the TouchWiz UI will have to skip out of Android 4.2.2. Both devices have “power under the hood”, certainly enough to lift the update. Why is it now tweaks at all really ends, it can only be speculated.

in numerous comments on ukonio.de users assert that various custom Roms with Android 4.3 running without problems on the Galaxy S3 and central second But what surprised us even more: The final test firmware that is already leaked weeks ago and “spread” via SamMobile for both devices was far short of such a storm of protest, as the official Android 4.3 FIX moved to yourself.

many questions

A question we are asked repeatedly for days, why Samsung has not been tested because the firmware for the Galaxy S3 and Note 2 enough? The group had set with the November rollout announcement possibly even under pressure?

Or are you as Galaxy S3 and Note 2 owners might still not satisfied with Android 4.1.2 Jelly Bean? How important are Android updates? We are grateful for any feedback as usual.
