Just did the Settings>About Phone>Update deal about 15 mins ago and am currently installing. And yes, it is 400 mb. Hooray!

Can someone post a screenshot of the build number after the update? Is it actually BLK3?

I just installed the OTA and my build is I535VRBLK3

I'm on an N10 so I already have 4.2
Word of advice: if and/or when y'all get the 4.2 update,use caution. It isn't the greatest update and might not be worth it to some people.

It must be Easter. My S3 is full of jellybeans. The OTA update ran last night, after I manually checked.

How did you take a screenshot without rooting your phone? Android isn't that advanced, and the previous OTA (some minor patch) unrooted mine.

EDIT: I found it. Apparently, this is a new feature in Jellybean. Press and hold POWER + HOME, or swipe the screen with the side of your hand.

My install failed 3 times. Unsure If its due to being rooted or bootloader being unlocked. Any ideas. I restored back to stock ICS.

Edit: I forgot to restore ICS radio files aswell. This fixed the issue.

Did you change the radio files on your phone in the past?

Are you getting this as your error message.

If you don't have a ICS radios then download them from the official modems thread over at rootzwiki. And flash it in recovery.

Umm, the S3 has had this capability since it came out. Its not new from Jellybean.
