How to update a Samsung Galaxy S3?

Updates will show up when your phone when it is needed or when there is an update for your Galaxy S3. But there is also some ways to update your phone manually. Just a small warning, do this at your own risk since there is a possibility that you will lose some of your data.

Always perform a backup. To do this, simply connect your phone via WiFi. Then press the apps icon. Locate to the Settings menu. Scroll down to the lower portion of your phone and press the About Device.

On top of it is a tab named Software Update, select it and then click Update on the next screen. Your mobile phone will then connect to the Samsung servers and update if there is an available update, it will start imminently.
