Samsung Galaxy S III for T-Mobile USA receives its Jelly Bean update

Sprint was [the first](http://www.engadget.com/2012/10/25/jelly-bean-sprint-galaxy-s3/) major US carrier to start delivering [Jelly Bean](http://www.engadget.com/2012/06/28/android-4-1-jelly-bean-review-a-look-at-whats-changed-in-googl/) to Galaxy S III owners, but it no longer stands alone now that the [T-Mobile edition](http://www.engadget.com/2012/06/28/samsung-galaxy-s-iii-for-t-mobile-review/) is officially receiving its update. If you're part of the initial crop deemed eligible on Magenta's network, a check either over-the-air or through Kies should put Android 4.1.1 on the Samsung flagship. T-Mobile's version of the upgrade delivers the expected dashes of [Google Now](http://www.engadget.com/2012/08/29/google-now-emergency-alerts-sports-movies/) and [Project Butter](http://www.engadget.com/tag/ProjectButter/) as well provider-specific fixes for WiFi calling. Don't worry if there isn't an immediate notice, as carrier-linked OS updates usually take weeks to get everyone on the same page; the main question is when all the other big US networks will follow suit.
