Hey guys. Woke up this morning after travelling to Jordan from Palestine. I bought my S3 from Jordan and I was checking for a software update to be greated by a 18 MB stability update.

After I was done with it I got a 278 MB update which turned out to be Jellybean.

I am guessing since my phone is part of the middle east region the update is available for all.

My phone's region is Saudi Arabia and I still haven't gotten the update yet, perhaps because I'm in the Philippines?

It could be, I think I was unable to prove a theory that updates don't work in Palestine.

@ceowin;: go to your dialer, press *#1234# and you will get a page called "version" check the CSC code you get, the two letters after I9300 should give you your region.

Ex

My code is i9300OJVDL1, my region is JV. It's the two letters after your phone code and another letter.

Go to sammobbile.com and check over there.
