What is the precise plan has Samsung in view of the rollout of Android 4.3 Jelly Bean for the Galaxy S3 and Note 2? The confusion these days is complete – and a clear structure is not visible. Take the Galaxy S3: About three weeks ago, the rollout was initially launched in Ireland, then in some Eastern European countries. In most cases, the network operator Vodafone had pressed on the tube. Since those firmware but “provided” with many bugs, there was talk that Vodafone was perhaps in the matter too quickly quickly. However, even in Switzerland – there rolled the Swisscom the update – or Austria, here A1 was responsible for the rollout, there were problems from the start. Samsung pulled the emergency brake and put the rollout in Europe ado. Not least in the UK piled up in the forums complaints.

Up to a public statement by the South Korean IT giant passed again one week. And the rollout at once continued – but not in Europe but in the United States. It is there though to a different model (“only” two cores, but 2 GB RAM), yet surprising decision. The problems, meanwhile, also occur in the United States, as we have already reported on yesterday.

IBTimes now has an article out that – no matter which update plans Android is targeting future – definitely a bug fix update expected to stand to get the problem under control. What is meant here are first of all those users who have already been playing around via the network operator T-Mobile and Verizon in the U.S., but also in Switzerland and Austria, the firmware. Because the Galaxy S3 is no longer “to use” often after the update. Users in this country can because basically durchschnaufen before.

ukonio.de has received numerous letters from people who assert that resetting to factory settings does not help. This step advises Samsung – but it “‘s no good”: A bug-fix update must be found so that Android 4.3 still running stable on the Galaxy S3

.

Before the problems seem not solved, Samsung probably not continue for the Samsung Galaxy S3 to roll out probably. It is still unclear to many users, such as a – obviously – immature firmware could even be rolled out

. Android 4.3 for the Galaxy S4

the end of October, Samsung had announced to roll out Android 4.3 for the Galaxy S3, S4, and Note 2. During the yesterday about the launch of Galaxy was S4 devices including o2 branding in Germany, has neither regarding the Galaxy S3 still the Galaxy Note 2 done something, at least in this country. Or to put it differently: Still no white smoke rose

.

But the update policy on the phablet Galaxy Note 2 causes confusion: First, the rollout in India was launched just over a week ago, there then followed a few days before the launch in Canada. It almost seems as if first of all trial balloons are launched. Because even though of course in all countries at the same time a firmware update can not be started (the Samsung server would go on strike), so can not just be called a “rollover” of events.

? Google removed CyanogenMod App from the Play Store

In addition to connecting the SmartWatch Galaxy Gear and spread of the Samsung Knox security package, the Android 4.3 update brings quite laudable features with it. For example, “multi-window view”, different programs can be simultaneously opened. The Galaxy Note 2 with its 5-inch screen is as natural as “painted”.

The wait for Android 4.3 thus holds – and it is too early to forecast when the launch of the Samsung Galaxy S3 and Galaxy Note takes place 2. It appears certain only that Samsung may hold only in terms of the Galaxy S4 word. There are no less worse than an outstanding Android update, especially since Android 4.1.2 Jelly Bean on the Galaxy S3 and Note 2 is stable.

However, since Android was already skipped 4.2.2 because of alleged voting problems with the TouchWiz UI, of course, was for many users hope that the update would work on Android 4.3 smoothly. But those who look at all the problems with the home screen, with the discharge of the battery or starting an app, do: A few screws will have Samsung turn yet

.

Well, and a message that is not confirmed yet but lets hope: Android 4.4 will be rolled out in the first half of 2014 for the Samsung Galaxy S3 and Note 2. But then this is a whole new chapter …

What do you think: Samsung gets the problems caused Android 4.3 Jelly Bean on the Samsung Galaxy S3, under control? Or is shortly to be expected with any bug fix update? We are grateful for any feedback.
