Jelly Bean wasn't OFFICIALLY released for i9070 So it is first official news about it.
Actually it has to be a complete fixed international update date.
OMG.. so this firmware we've been using for about a month is a "leaked" firmware? And developers on XDA are making custom roms using this firmware..??

Leaked it or not...anyway it was rolled out by samsung without any notifications and supported by kies for future fixes. Even Russian off. web doesn't mention about it in a support tab. It is a test stage. OS debugging on device per country is more comfortable, than receive international bug reports with similar contents and filtrate it (by language for ex.) in fixing process. Russia has the worst mobile network coverage in country zone so I think it is the main and best reason to debug device in these conditions. (A lot of russian users are complained about network problems on Galaxy S Advance).

Could you tell which ROM uses? and Kernel ...
I'm about to downgrade and would like to try one last time.
You could share as experienced user.
I would also like to say that the JB STOCK ROM that Samsung has presented is at least good.
For now the word is frustrating. You use begins to like and suddenly something strange happens.
What a surprise, I9070P not in the list!

This is not completly true. Only flashing custom kernel with Odin will increase binary counter. And maybe custom firmware, but one root method use firmware with su file integrated, and it do not increase bc. So for us now, only flashing custom kernel with odin increase it. And there is no Odin flashable kernel files for JB now on xda. And ecerything you install without Odin will not increase bc.

Samsung has just made the announcements, and among the listed devices is the 7 Plus.
This time around they have promised a faster deployment than with ICS, saying it's coming to all these devices "within the next weeks".

He said "Next weeks" with an S, not week. :silly:
impossible you say? I would bet ours devs.. given full samsung source, binaries, blobs etc, working full time, could build official JB in a matter of days. Testing does take time though.
Id bet on before February from Samsung.
just like sammy siad we will get ics,
i am living in South Africa and we all did not get ics.
i had to root my tab and flash open austria firmware.

probably, i hope by late january or early febuary we could get at least one jellybean build for p6200. the blobs might help a little for cm10(or 10.1 by that time), but i don't know how much it will help, perhaps the video playing problem could be solved, and maybe a smoother "buttery" jellybean.

Not sure why everyone talks about build date.
The changelog is going to be your one guarantee that a firmware is in anyway different or identical to the one you already have
Quite often build dates might be different because of scheduling of the coding etc

Thanks for this. As a new comer to the Android world and having just got my S4, I note this is the firmware on my phone (online import to Australia). However, could you confirm for me:
this is a link to the Stock ROM should I need to return the original OS,
that despite this, I can still follow published methods for rooting my phone (eg "Root the Samsung Galaxy S4 I9505 on Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean using Motochopper tool",
there is no problem with me moving to a British based Custom ROM such as described here "Update Galaxy S4 I9505 to official XXUAMDM Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean Firmware", and finally
Does the region software is designed for (eg Hong Kong vs Europe) have an impact on the phone's functionality and hardware abilities?

I think the first device, wich gets 4.4 is note 3. But maybe they are just rolling out 4.2.2, because UBMI3 is now stable enough for everyone? But if we really get an update, I heard that the kernel maybe will be 3.4 :good:
i hope so too ...
right now with all the 4.3 issues on S3, I think that if we are ever going to get an upgrade, it will be directly 4.4 :angel:

Although it is a probability that 4.2.2 maybe the last update for the S2 Plus, its quite unreasonable for them to do that considering the device coming out only in the beginning of this year, Most Android devices would get support for around 18 months after their initial release.. almost 12 months have gone, so it probably will be 6 months or something that they could release an update. But its likely that they might not. Who knows?

Hahaha I just remembered that Sammy sait that they will provide many mid range devices with Kitkat, coz it's lighter than JB ! ROFL
Maclaw said, that, the US version of the s3 mini, and from what i learned, the "US" version is the AT&T variant, i seriously don't think that Sammsung is goin to invest in the few hundreads(?) of AT&T S3 Mini version (i think it has express name or something), when they can invest in the vastly international version sold in USA and almost all the american continent (the GT-i8790L).
Anyway time will tell maybe later this month Sammobile is going to have STE Novathor firmwares of S3 Mini.
Even then we have more than amazing dev's and we are in the golden age for our device, also i think that by years end most of us will be having new cellphones.
I think if wolft will came back witch android 4.4 costom rom witch touchwizz we will feel the same feeling as official kitkat for our devices.

We will.
It's better...with 4.1.2 samsung hasn't working well
Yeah we wouldn't get a decent OS anyway
I don't think the rom is itself would be good. I don't like the touchwiz experience that much. But it would mean newer kernel sources, and newer binary blobs, such as OMX components, Mali libs, etc... All those could improve the current state of Team Canjica's CM11 (which I'm currently happily using).
Given all the 4.4.2 ROMs floating around, it wouldn't be much of a hassle for Samsung to make an upgrade (not taking Touchwiz into account).
