Bell Galaxy S3 Jelly Bean update leaked, works with Rogers and Telus versions too

The Galaxy S3 Jelly Bean update is getting closer, that’s certain. Samsung has already confirmed the phone will be soon updated to Android 4.1.1 during its Unpacked event in Berlin, Germany last week, although it did fail to reveal rollout dates.

But in the mean time we’ve seen various Jelly Bean builds leak for the international Galaxy S3 version, but also for T-Mobile’s Galaxy S3 model, that't not including all the Jelly Bean-based custom ROMs available for the flagship device already.

Now we’re going to tell you that more North American Galaxy S3 owners can install a pre-release Android 4.1.1 build for their handsets, as long as they don’t mind running an unofficial ROM – not that we’d ever encourage anyone to pursue such procedures.

A Canadian Galaxy S3 Jelly Bean build has been leaked, version I747MVLALI2c, which means Rogers, Telus and Bell subscribers that have purchased Samsung’s flagship device can perform the unofficial upgrade – technically the leaked ROM is meant to run on the Bell’s Galaxy S3 version, but MobileSyrup reports it’s compatible with Rogers and Telus too:

At this point in order to install the leak you need to be running Bell’s version of the LH1 firmware and install this 308MB OTA update from the official recovery, or through Kies. Custom ROMs are being developed as we speak and will likely be available in the next 12-24hrs for all variants of the i747M.

Let’s hear it from Canadians then, are you going to upgrade to Jelly Bean these days?

Wow an whole ad for brown version gs4 , so much money is wasted on marketing , they should have used that money for making 32gb and 64gb s4 version and delivering it fast as possible .

  Ummm….the ad was not at all trying to showcase the brown S4. The ad was obviously simply showcasing the phones features. You must not have watched it. There is no need to rush out 32gb & 64gb models. That’s what a SD card is for. I have 150+ apps, tons of music, video, pics, nand backups…you name it. All of this on my 16gb S4. Mind boggling how that can work…eh.

simpleas

@Piyush
They have money for that… they don’t have to save an ad to do that. We’re talking about production issues. You have to remember Sammy busts out gaziilion smartphones. I hope the new automation process will help with that tho.

  than why they say that there will be 32gb and 64gb version ,its false marketing than , they should tell us that it will be releasing after 4-5months. and still there were very few 64gb version gs3 and note 2.
