The Galaxy S3 Jelly Bean update is getting closer and closer both for international and U.S. versions of the handset – in fact, some European buyers have already received their Android 4.1.1 upgrades, not to mention that various international carriers are launching the Galaxy S3 4G LTE model with Jelly Bean out of the box.

But the update is definitely not coming as “soon” as Samsung suggested it would happen right after the Galaxy Note 2 announcement at IFA 2012 in late August.
Nevertheless, we’ve seen a variety of Jelly Bean leaks for the Galaxy S3, although most of them were “released” for the international version of the phone.

Today we have a fresh Sprint Galaxy S3 Jelly Bean ROM for you, courtesy of xda-developers, that discovered build version L710SPRBLIF out in the wild. That means that you can go ahead and manually update your Sprint Galaxy S3 to Android 4.1.1 if you so desire, although we won’t advise you to mess around with unofficial ROMs, especially if you’re not familiar with installing custom firmware on your Android handset.
Obviously, you’re entitled to anything you want with your purchased handset, so if you do install this Jelly Bean build on your handset, make sure you drop a line in the comments section to tell us how it all worked out for you.
As for the official Sprint Galaxy S3 Jelly Bean upgrade, we still don’t have any details on the matter, but we’ll be back with updates as soon as they’re released.

After several weeks of getting all our attention and being under the spotlight, the excitement surrounding the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 seemed to tone down as its launch got delayed. Fortunately, the second-gen phablet we all got so excited about is back with a bang being finally up for grabs in select Asian and European countries.

Everybody’s waiting for the Galaxy Note 2 to hit the States though, which is why we’re happy to let you know that the U.S. release seems to be on schedule. No, we still haven’t heard anything official from Samsung or any one of the five carriers confirmed to sell the “beast”, but we have spotted three different versions of the device getting FCC approval.
First up, the SGH-i317 is most likely the AT&T model of the Galaxy Note 2, although it’ll probably also hit several Canadian carriers (no idea which ones). This device was first spotted in a GL Benchmarking at the beginning of September, and comes equipped with 850/1900 MHz 3G and 700/1700/2100 MHz 4G LTE bands.
The SCH-i605 was itself spotted several weeks ago in a leaked screenshot, although this was an even more mysterious device. What was only a guess back then it is now a certainty, seeing as the featuring of both CDMA and GSM, as well as 700 MHz LTE can only point at a dual-mode Verizon-bound Galaxy Note 2.
Big Red’s version of Samsung’s new phablet will support simultaneous CDMA voice and LTE data transmission using separate antennas, unlike the models on AT&T and T-Mobile. The i605 is also the model with the lowest SAR (specific absorption rate) measurements, while the AT&T-bound i317 has the highest such number.
As far as T-Mo’s Note 2 goes, we should mention that this is codenamed T889 and will support HSPA on the classic 1,700 MHz AWS frequency, but also 1,700 MHz 4G LTE speeds. That means that, despite earlier rumors, Magenta has a long-term plan for Sammy’s phablet, which will in fact run smoothly on the carrier’s soon to be introduced LTE network.
Notably missing on the list of tracked FCC certifications of Galaxy Note 2 variants are both Sprint and U.S. Cellular’s versions, although we wouldn’t worry very much about that. There is a chance these two will be released sometime after the three already spotted devices. There’s a better chance however that the two have also been approved by the regulatory agency and they simply haven’t been tracked yet.
Samsung is set to hold a special press event in New York City on October 24, where everyone suspects the Note 2 will be introduced to the American public. However, it’s still hard to predict whether the phablet will start selling immediately after or by mid-November, as some rumors claimed a while back.
In the meantime, you can feast your eyes with our exclusive Note 2 unboxing, but also with the first ever drop test performed on the phoneblet, courtesy of our good old compadre and boss, Darcy LaCouvee. Enjoy!

FAQs
☆ I don’t want icon on status bar.
Every quick bar need an icon on the status bar due to Android system limit. However, you can change the default status bar icon to “transparent” (see design tab). Most of cases, it does what you want.
☆ Quick Bar closes automatically when I click on an item?
Prior to Honeycomb, Android closes automatically notification bars when clicked.
This will not happen on newer version.
☆ Why some actions does not work
Since Android security model changed, some functions are limited, other opened. Not all function works on any device. Manufacturer/custom ROMs add more complexity to this. We suggest you to try them before permanently added into your quick bar, especially, mobile data, GPS, music control. We are working hard to support the best solution for you.
☆ What is “Last call” item?
This item is only available on “phone” which supports to make calls. It will dial the latest number (outgoing, incoming or missed call).
☆ Notification background not display right in my Gingerbread device?That’s a kernel bug, sometime notification does not display correctly on older Android version. Newer Android (ICS, Jelly bean) already fixed this issue.
☆ What is Date/Day of Week/Month status icon?
Time status icon will display current date/day of week/month on your status bar,
and it automatically update to match your time.
☆ I don’t know this item is whether Wifi toggle or Wifi setting shortcut
Some setting items use same icon resource,
you can set to always show action label from design setting.
☆ I can’t uninstall this app
If you enable device admin, you should disable it before uninstalling. To disable goto Home> Menu> Settings> Security> Device Administrators, then uncheck 1tap Quick Bar> Deactivate, then back to application manager to uninstall it.
