thinking about switching t-mobile for their cheap ass plans with unlimited data. Anybody know how to unlock att S3?

I don't think you'll be able to take advantage of T-Mobile's HSPA+ using an unlocked att phone. Double check your phone. If anything, just flip it and kop a t-mobile version. It should be an equal trade.

Verizon finally took some time off promoting the droid dna to approve the gs3 JB update

Verizon Approves Jelly Bean Update for Galaxy S3

The update includes all of the Jelly Bean features you&#8217;d expect, like Google Now (even though they label it above as &#8220;Plus&#8221;), better notifications, smarter widgets, and Project Butter. Beyond Jelly Bean, Verizon also included support for Isis Mobile Wallet (still only available in test markets), turned the phone into a global roaming beast, and fixed a variety of bugs.

The update appears to be 62MB in size. The build number is VRBLK3, which leaked last week.
