Android 4.3 Jelly Bean update resumes for Galaxy S3 users in UK

The Android 4.3 update has resumed for the Samsung Galaxy S3 smartphone after its initial shaky launch in the UK.

The Android 4.3 Jelly Bean update for the Galaxy S3 has resumed rolling out after Samsung fixed a number of bugs and glitches that were among customer complaints when the software initially rolled out.

The Korean company stated: "The fix for the issues with Galaxy S3 Jelly Bean 4.3 upgrade has begun rolling out to selected users in the UK, and will continue to do so... We are sorry for the inconvenience this has caused. Specific upgrade schedules will vary by mobile operators. Please check your phone for the upgrade."

The initial launch had caused battery and Wi-Fi issues, along with frequent freezing.

In the U.S., the 4.3 Jelly Bean update for Samsung's Galaxy S3 devices were also bug-ridden when it released initially. The roll-out was quickly suspended by Samsung after receiving reports of multiple problems, including poor battery performance, apps crashing, and Wi-Fi connectivity.

U.S. carrier Sprint started rolling out the bug-free update to the S3 devices again in November.
