[Isa Al]

Hey

I am new to android and S3 and I am trying to upgrade my android from 4.04 to 4.1 or 4.2 which is the jelly bean but it's showing no updates available, so what's wrong and how can I update it?


Thanks

Depends on where you live and what service provider you use. It will be 4.1.1 or 4.1.2. Bit more information is needed from you.

If your carrier is not sending the update out OTA then your only option in to root your phone. Go to the International section in the All This Root Are at the top of this forum if you want to root your phone. If you do not want to root then you will need to wait for your carrier to push the OTA.

Have you tried updating the FW via samsung kies on a computer?. If not, then give this a try as kies will detect your handset when you connect it and tell you if there is an update available for it, if there is, it will install it automaticly. If you don't have the kies program, you can download it from the Samsung site.
