i just got the update notification, but can't update because not enough battery... did anyone do any backup before updating the firmware (for those who didn't root that is)? or is it safe enough to just click update and then voila?

Don't worry it will prompt again as mine did.

Downloading OTA 22.24MB update... Kies also detected update for my S3.

do u need wifi to download the update? coz i used my 3g is says "No update available" even if i untick the wi-fi only checkbox
*
It will prompt again for OTA update. Force check update will say no update.

Download 22.24MB only. So can use 3G to download but make sure use wifi option is disabled.

Make sure your battery power is sufficient. Or won't allow you to update. I got 43% also cannot update.

Have to use Kies or Odin to update

If Kies fail again, I will download the firmware from samfirmware and use Odin to flash when I get home...

Kies or download rom all more than 700MB++ while OTA only 30++MB .. my line is not fast and update using those two methods will take me hours to finish it.. so better just wait...

QUOTE(gaarared @ Jun 22 2012, 11:53 AM)
I'm lazy to do that..haha just wait for the OTA, because seems like the update is not so major..

Updated mine thru Kies took 45mins to 1 hour to download. Don't think Kies downloaded 700MB as I updated 2 of my S3 yesterday night. All done within 2 hours.
