The Samsung Galaxy S3 and Galaxy Note 2 Android 4.3 Jelly Bean update roll out has been far from being a seamless process. Some say it has been the exact opposite, being suspended and all sorts of possible release dates circulating on the Internet without any sure date. As such, users are now looking for answers.

Samsung revealed that Galaxy S4, Galaxy S3 and Galaxy Note 2 users will get upgrades that would bring Galaxy Gear support. The company also confirmed the Android 4.3 Jelly bean upgrades to arrive with Samsung KNOX and other various fixes and enhancements.

Communication between Samsung and its users has been very poor, so here's a breakdown of updates and information we have gathered below.

Samsung Galaxy S4

Samsung leaves it to carriers to announce update information, and it's safe to say that major carriers tend to receive updates a couple of weeks in advance so owners should be on the look-out as 2013 draws closer to its end and 2014 fast approaches. Bell, Rogers, and TELUS have all started to push the Android 4.3 Jelly Bean updates to their users. For those under these carriers, they should head to the settings and check if there is an update waiting already.

Update resources have reportedly dropped on Samsung's Open Source Release Center already, and it should be a sign that OTAs are coming in the near future. One focal point of the Galaxy S3 Android 4.3 Jelly Bean update is in the UK. Users have already complained about a myriad of issues-- large enough that Samsung suspended the update altogether, leaving owners with the update onboard in limbo. Samsung is looking into the issues and working on the fixes for the problems right now.

Samsung Galaxy Note 2

The Galaxy Note 2 Android 4.3 Jelly Bean update hasn't been spreading like wildfire and a lot of regions have yet to see it. Sprint, a U.S. carrier, has reportedly rolled out an update and it is a good sign. Other carriers in other places should see the update before the year ends. Australian carrier Telstra announced that it will be updating its devices in December and it looks like a lot of owners will be getting their new software by then.
