Awesome even though I have an S4 Hopefully we get it soon. I think there are more s4 devices in the world than s3 so we should get it first! Can't complain though because owners of the S3 have been unlucky with updates in the past.
I Hope
It soon for our s4
From HTC One S
Wait a minute why would the update only be 21mb? There is no way a whole new android version update would be that small.

The only useful thing in the 4.1.2 update as far as I'm concerned is the ability to expand notifications in the status bar with one finger instead of with 2 as is the case now...

One S will get Sense 5 with 4.2.2 around July according to HTC and this is the last major update.
One and a quarter years is longer than I expected from them to be honest. At least Google are releasing a new... Thing soon for manufacturers that makes updating Android versions a lot easier. Hopefully means on my future upgrades, which will most likely be the M7, updates should be pushed out within a couple of months. It's no good that only around 10% of all Android devices at the moment are on Jelly Bean, and that's been available for almost a year now.

One S won't get Android 5.0 because the OS will need to rewrite from scratch but 5.0 is delayed to next year probably and Google will release 4.3 first. So, we might have chance to have a 4.3 port as well....

Well I meant a release past 4.2.2 from Google would be nice, even if it were a port. But in either case, I'm glad that we're getting that far for sure because of all the updates and attention HTC has been giving its flagship phones.
Some other people have not been so lucky, even the One V didn't get Jelly Bean and that device was more than capable of handling that.

I've used that device (family member owns it) and it runs just as smooth as the One S did (on ICS obviously). I think that HTC just couldn't be arsed to give it Jelly Bean.

Hi, I will be getting a Tf300t tablet soon and I'm very excited about unlocking and everything else, I'm not new to flashing and recovery since I have a Galaxy Note running AoCP CP3 Jelly Bean, but here is my question.
The Tf300t unlock utility for the bootloader, does it work on Jelly Bean? The asus site says only for ICS. The tablet will probably come with ICS from the store but should I upgrade to JB right away or run the unlock utility on ICS before flashing the OTA upgrade to JB.
Another thing if I unlock the bootloader once I upgrade to JB will it lock again?
So many questions, I'm really excited.
Thank You guys in advance.
Erik.
Hey,
I am not sure but I think I have seen someone complaining about using the unlocker on JellyBean (this guy's tablet got bricked after using the unlock tool on JB - this is not confirmed). So if you want to unlock the bootloader, do it on ICS, you will be safe. Also, after you unlock the bootloader you're loosing warranty and for the time being locking again is not possible (this is what you have to acknowledge before you will be able to unlock the bootloader). Moreover, if you will unlock it your tablet won't receive any OTAs anymore.
So no, after you upgrade to JB the bootloader won't be locked again .
Cheers.

thanks, that answered my questions, regarding the warranty I know the unlock voids it, that's why I bought the Square Trade warranty for 2 yrs. I probably take the JB update and then just wait for the JB unlock tool to be released by ASUS.
thanks for the reply.

Hey man jus wanted to let you know that the unlock tool worked for without any problems on JB Bootloader. I think i've seen a couple of other users that were successful in unlocking their JB Bootloader using the tool. After that i installed CWM Touch using fastboot method and everything is history from that on. I highly recommend Hydro JB ROM as it takes out all lag and makes the TF300 so much more pleasant to use.

Good to know man, I had my doubts regarding JB but I think I'm gonna let it do the OTA update and then try to unlock, if it fails I guess Amazon has a very good return policy.
Thanks for the heads up.
Square Trade is awesome btw. Ive gotten many electronics replaced by them without any complications. Well worth the $$$
I just received answer from Asus Customer Support, and the technician advised me that bootloader unlocker available on Asus website is working after tablet has been upgraded via OTA to JB.
http://www.nyanimg.com/i/2012/09/11/mpTIY.jpg
So I can just update to the latest update from there. (Keeps bugging me to do so anyway.) And use the unlocker on their site? Then install whatever rom I want?
UPDATE: Updated to the latest OTA Update, downloaded the unlock .apk straight from my tablet, opened it, accepted, it restarted and said in the top right to wait as it received the unlock command, finally said "This device is unlocked.".
Was very simple and easy to use.
question
]so my ota never came back so i manually update from the asus site so can i use the unlocking tool to get cm10 ?

Unlock will work on jb. If u do ota to jb then u can't install any other custom Roms beside stock based build Roms.
Bah I was so excited tonight since I decide it's time to unlock because of all the recent custom kernel development. But the unlocker keeps failing: An unknown error occurs, which may be a network connection issue..." I have kept trying for a while now, same error, only once have I gotten a confirm google account prompt while doing it but in the end it still failed.
I also did a factory reset just in case and same result, any ideas? or do I just keep spamming the button until I get it?

I wonder what about At&t. I'm sure someone will port it or what ever it is. But what about a official?
Why would you care? The same phone. No porting or whatever needed, it's directly flashable. Official Rogers release is better than official AT&T release. You need AT&T junk that any custom ROM removes anyway? I'm sure the ICS stuff will be compatible.
Are you kidding me? AT&T S3s won't get JB until 2028 -_-

It's still gonna be the same crappy TouchWiz filled update we got for ICS. I remember the ICS update - it made the phone worse and it was so laggy. Sure this update might make it a bit faster, but it'll still have TouchWiz and I don't see why anyone would ever go from CM10 to stock 4.1.

Not everyone feels the same way you do, and TW-based custom ICS flies for me. I much prefer it to anything CM has to offer.
The rom doesn't matter What matters is the Source Code! It will help fix cm10 issues like Accessing the sim contacts getting network service mode working and network selection 2g and turning off lte.

its 100% based on cm10, built from their sources, my build is just a stripped down version of cm10, the users on my build have not mentioned any of those issues, i just tested it on my phone and i can disable lte by choosing "gsm/wcdma preferred" mode instead of using "lte/gsm/wcdma " mode in the mobile network settings and there is a seperate setting to enable to use 2g only. maybe its the radio you are using, im on rogers modem which is rat unlocked
edit: just reread ur post and seen that u r on rogers modem, then idk, maybe try my rom and see if it does what u want it to do
when i choose 2g only my signal shows as edge.
when im in an lte area if i choose "gsm/wcdma preferred" i get hspa signal "h+"and not 4g, 4g of course is lte for cm10
now if im "not" in an lte area and i choose "gsm/wcdma preferred" i get the 3g symbol, but if i choose "lte/gsm/wcdma " i get hspa "h+" symbol.
edit: using rogers lte apn btw, when "not" in lte area i might get 3g or h+ when having it set to lte

If that was the case wouldn't the build be different? The build on the nexus 4 had the same build as the 4.3 "leak". I would assume a finished build would differentiate itself from a leak build by the build number.

Here is the whole screenshot of the editted conversation
So what we guys withe the kitchen roms await, is actually Sony to release 4.3 for the Z so the Xda will port it to the L/ M. Cause lets face it: who cares for 4.2 on our phones once 4.3 is out for the Z's?

I don't think Sony will release 4.2.2 for us.They announced the official list for 4.2.2 long time ago and XL wasn't on that list.At the end of the post they said that some devices that aren't in that list will skip 4.2.2 and jump directly to 4.3.As 4.3 is kinda out I don't see why Sony would work at 4.2.2 for XL...maybe just some marketing technique...Anyway,we'll live and see what Sony prepared us.

The Sony only updates firmware once in lower and mid range phones. So if you get 4.1 out of box, you will get one update to 4.3 or 4.2.2 !
I will go with 4.2.2 to be the end of Xperia L life.
This means that there is a slight chance that we will get anything more than one major update! We will get some small fixes but that will be that !
We will still be at 4.2.2 and receive one to two minor updates for bugs. Thus, thinking that we will also get another major update is out of question !
I hope they do but the chances are very small. They will put up an excuse that hardware doesnot support or anything.
Xperia U and Samsung Galaxy S3 mini has same NovaThor but Sony claimed that NovaThor can not run Jelly Bean but surprisingly S3 mini does ! Samsung updates their phone to JB with same NovaThor but Sony didnot.
Even, JB was ported to Xperia U from Xperia P and it worked great but had battery issues. I think if Sony had taken the initiative, they could have easily done that. But sony doesnot do that. We will be extremely lucky to get another update to Xperia L after 4.2.2 ! Minor bug fixes would be there but nothing more. That's one of the reason I do not like Sony. They make great phones but lack the energy to give timely updates to all of their devices. Also, this is a way to make people buy new phones !
UPDATE :
I reread the article and found out that the real culprit was GPU.

Well actually Sony gave low internal memory of Xperia U as a reason for not giving update. Xperia P has same chipset but it got 4.1 update officialy.

Yes that simply blamed the hardware.
Look at this, now even the battery life has been tweeked. Complete Rom which Sony could easily have worked on !

I totally agree with you, Sony's more busy working with bringing up New devices instead of working on updates. Well basically they just want users to buy newer phones with newer features :L they really shouldn't do that, this is my first and last Sony phone.

What will 4.3 add to or fix or make better in our S4's still running stock 4.2.2 TW ?

Trim support and low battery consuming location track? I don't really see any difference between GS4 TW and Note3 TW.
Hopefully we can get out of the MF3 rut with the new 4.3 update
Can't wait for the 4.3 update! Just a couple more weeks. Was going to update the leaked version but don't feel like setting everything up again.

How do those of us rooted on ATT MF3 stock 4.2.2 get the official ATT 4.3 update next month ? We can't flash ROM's like the rest of the world can Well we have Safestrap, but that's just a bandaid, and can't do 4.3 ROM's anyways. I am rooted on stock. How would I get the 4.3 update next month ?
I am hoping with the official ATT 4.3 update, maybe come with new firmware, it may allow us to get true recovery ? Or am I just dreaming ?

I'd say you were dreaming.
As far as getting the update goes, just remove safestrap and unroot. A search should help you find out how. Good luck.
Well will the official ATT 4.3 update, maybe help Safestrap, to finally allow 4.3 ROM's to work ?
Just blows that ATT is doing this crap. I updated my Wife and I phones, both got brand new S4's for $99 ea. plus credit by exchanging in our old HTC phones, so at the end of the day 2 brand new S4's on contract only cost us $50 out the door total.
Just blows they come with MF3 by default.

I hear ya. I got my S4 in September and of course it was pre-loaded with MF3. I'm contemplating giving it to my wife as an upgrade to her Skyrocket and get the Nexus 5. I probably should have waited for it looking back. I honestly didn't think the bootloader would be nearly impossible to unlock.

Is there any hope in the future of unlocking our phones ? Will a future firmware update have an exploit to be found, and allow Recovery ? Or are S4's with MF3 permanently locked down tight forever ?
Thing is I do like this S4 a lot. I am just rooted only on stock 4.2.2, to remove the bloat and crap apps, plus to install Greenify, Droidwall, AdAway, etc...phone is fast with great battery life now, and good size and looks great in my Neo Hybrid case.
Just wish we could freely ROM this phone with CWM Recovery, like the good old days of earlier Samsung phones.

As long as you didn't freeze the att update in the app manager you will receive the update no matter rooted or not. Your just dreaming for right now until the official release is out it'll take several months before someone finds and exploit.

You should go return them and ask them to see tue box first and you want the ones with MDL if they still have it.

From my experience with the MF3 update, if you have root and have modified your system it will fail a file check and won't update immediately.
For MF3 users with Safestrap and root, this will probably end up being just as locked as MF3 was if not more. If anyone really wants to take the OTA then Safestrap could be used to flash the neutered MF3 zip to restore system to original and keep data, and then run the update.
If by chance root is found for MJ6 and Safestrap is updated to be compatible, we'd then be stuck on TW 4.3 ROMS instead of TW 4.2.2. That's the only option to run any 4.3 until a kexec exploit is found for Safestrap, and I don't know how hard that is to do, much less to load an AOSP kernel over TW, and much much less to load any 4.3 kernel over a 4.2.2 one.
Right now the best bet for MF3 users is to stay on MF3 and wait for either a neutered update that would work in the stock slot, so we could move between MF3 and MJ6 and run either at our discretion (this requires root to be found, Safestrap to be updated, and hope that the current bootloader will take it just fine) or wait for kexec or something else to free us.
I know way off topic, but I hope when ATT releases the S5 early Spring next year, it doesn't ship with a MF3 style locked down system ?
When ATT first released the S4, this year, how easy and fast was root and recovery working ?
And how long has MF3 been out ?
I just got my S4 ten days ago, might as well try and check at Best Buy if they have the 'MDL' version still in stock ?

Every phone att releases now will be tighter than the previous phone. Since mf3 is this tight, imagine the s5.
