A few days ago, Sprint users celebrated being the first to receive the Android 4.1 update for the Samsung Galaxy S III. Now, it is time for owners of the flagship Android phone on T-Mobile to be excited as the Jelly Bean update comes to their device. A number of T-Mobile customers say that software version T999UVDLJA is being sent to their Galaxy S III OTA.

The update brings the smooth scrolling of Project Butter, information you need when you need it from Google Now and a sizable Pop-up play screen. A new notifications system is on board and there is a revamped settings menu. Verizon customers might be next to get the update as a leaked version of Android 4.1.1 recently was made available at Xda developers forum and was believed to be the final version of the update.
