Thanks to the guys at Sammobile we now have another version of Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean for Samsung Galaxy S3. Even though this is just another test firmware they say it is very close to an official release. The official update to Android 4.2.2 for the S3 will take a little more time to come, but meanwhile let's take a look at what the I9300XXUFME7 firmware has to offer.Based on the rumors the official update will come somewhere in July/August and then Galaxy S3 will officially run with Android 4.2.2. For now we haven't seen any of the S4 camera features ported for the S3 in any of the test firmwares, but we hope the official one will include this.
Here is what Android 4.2.2 I9300XXUFME7 brings new on the Galaxy S3:
- The lockscreen mode has been updated with: Multiple Widgets, 2 more unlock effects out of which the already existing Ripple effect was improved, a new option to change clock size has been added and you can now set a personal message like with the S4.
- We have added screen modes from the S4: Adapt display and professional photo.
- The Settings UI has been updated to the S4 model (with tabbed interface).
- Some Galaxy S4 voice controls have been added.
- Samsung apps now have fullscreen mode.
- S-Voice was updated to the S4 version.
- A new smart switch widget has been added.
