Jelly Bean headed to Sprint Galaxy S III owners October 25th

Jelly Bean updates for the Samsung Galaxy S III have been talked about for a while. There have been leaked builds and confirmation from Samsung that the sweet treat is on its way to all S III device, soon. We didn’t expect soon to be tomorrow though. It looks like an internal doc was image was posted over at XDA that pretty clearly shows that JB is headed to Sprint Galaxy S III devices tomorrow, October 25th. Coincidentally  that is also the day that Sprint is supposed to be launching the Galaxy Note II. Looks like the 25th is going to be a pretty great day for Sprint customers.

The update shown is offering up a build number L710VPALJ7. That is the same build number for the most recent leak of the update. Looks like that build is indeed the final build for everyone. no mention of having to use Samsung Kies for this one, at least not on the doc anyways. The update will take a few weeks to hit all handsets as usual. So be patient. There is a small note there at the top, “All dates are subject to change.” Hopefully we don’t see this one get changed and pushed back any further.

If Sprint is on the offensive with Jelly Bean for their S III, that should mean the rest of the carriers shouldn’t be to far behind. I bet we hear something about them over the next few days.
