C Spire is the latest carrier to start rolling out Jelly Bean update for its version of the Samsung Galaxy S3. As I’m writing this, the carrier’s customers are getting the Android 4.1.2 goodies such as Google Now, Voice Search, Auto Widget Adjustment and Rich Notifications. Moreover, there are some Samsung-specific things included like various camera enhancements (Live Filters, Low Light Camera Mode, Pause and Resume Video), Swype Keyboard, Popup Play, Easy Mode, Blocking Mode, and an added bonus in the form of the ESPN ScoreCenter app with Custom AllShare integration.
As usual, the update is released in stages so if you still haven’t seen it – don’t worry, it’s coming any day now. Plus, you can always manually check for the new firmware through Settings -> About -> System updates. Hopefully, you’ll get it by the time you’ve finished reading this article…

Dusan Belic
Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do.
In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application.
Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
