Yeah we know you want some Jellybean, but if history of Android has taught us one thing that is to root your phone and flash a custom ROM on that bad boy. We know updates don’t come out as they should. Manufacturers take months to test them, then our carriers take even more time to test them before we can get our hands on them. So what we are showing you today is how to install a ROM from developer drewgaren over on XDA Developers. He’s taken the leaked Jellybean OTA’s for the T-Mobile Galaxy S3 and ported them over to the AT&T version, and has just pushed out Milestone 2.
