    Since the JB update on Three (official) I keep getting my data connection dropping off and not coming back unless I go to flight mode for about 10 seconds, and then back to normal.

    Really annoying. Anyone contacted three or heard of any fixes / workarounds for it?

    Had the same intermittently from the polish version as well.
    Although it seems to have stopped now since I did a reflash.
    Didn't lose my unlock by the way , only root which is quick and easy to restore :)

    eMobile have indicated on their own support forum that they have no planned release for Jellybean. I take it that would apply to Meteor too as they are more or less the same?

    My eMobile S3 is MET, so I guess it's up to Meteor.

    Got JB down on Vodafone this morning too. So what now... :D

    Nothing to keep checking for now, when is the next version out?

    One thing I notice is that the Battery Usage screen doesn't show the usage for Cell Standby now.. Voice Calls, and usual Screen, is showing most usage. Will see how it works out during the day.

    Notifications seem to have been revamped and I like the look of the "Blocking Mode" and I can set up timed notification changes. Mail notifications seem updated too - I have about 7 mail accounts on the go so anything to help will be good:D

    Edit: going to encrypt now too... will be back later when my device dies! FYI Kies won't connect to it now either so cannot get a good backup before I encrypt.

    Hi,

    When you expect to release update for Galaxy S3 to Jelly Bean ?

    Yeah i flashed my s2 with a cyanogen mod before i traded it in.

    Looking to keep the warranty on my s3 though, but i suppose i can just "re"-warranty it with the stock image or a backup, triangle away and re-root the phone if i have any issues.

    I did prefer the lack of bloat ware on cyanogen, don't like touchwiz much on ICS looking to see if its an improvement on JB.

    feic it sick of waiting might just flash it tonight.

    Where did you see that? I saw a post saying that about the S2, but have gotten responses indicating JB is on the way, though the release date is TBC

    They have to be the same, not different. Set Google now language to English UK and general system settings to English UK and it will work.
