Jelly Bean 4.1.1 OTA update released. This file patches your stock firmware to Jelly Bean.

Apply zip over STOCK T999UVALH2 found here

OTA: T999UVDLI7

OTA: T999UVDLI3
OTA: T999UVDLH3

Stock firmware T999UVALH2

1. Download and install stock (if you are not already on stock rom) This is needed as a base. The update will otherwise fail
2. Download OTA
3. Apply zip in recovery menu
4. Enjoy Jelly Bean 4.1.1


Since I dont have this model myself, the OTA update is not tested by me.
Please use this at your own risk.

We finally have official source. Maybe this could fix some of the cm10 bugs.

Well, the OP did say to install stock first before using this. So I'm assuming it is more of a patch than a full OTA.

It is a patch yes. Thats why the correct Stock is needed. The update will check the integrity of every file that it patches. Therefore you cannot use a custom rom as base. The same procedure have been done successfully on the international Galaxy S3.

I am more than wiling to try this but have a few questions:

1. Is this an official (leaked) OTA developed by Samsung/T-Mobile for SGH-T999 or a port?
2. I have the STOCK T999UVALH2 but am rooted and have custom recovery. Do I have to unroot first or simply flash the zip in custom recovery?
3. I got my phone unlocked, not using an unlock code but another method (all I know about this method is that my phone says "Restricted Access Changes". I did not loose the unlock when I updated to T999UVALH2 via Kies. Is there any chance I may loose the unlock upon flashing the zip?

1. This is official OTA downloaded directly from Samsungs own OTA servers and is made for specifically for the SGH-T999
2. I guess it will work without unrooting. But Im not 100% sure. I mean, it's the same kind of OTA that is sent out to your phone eventually. The OTA contains a recovery, so your current one will be overwritten.
3. No idea regarding unlocking.

To be on the safe side, make a backup, flash stock, flash OTA.

I tried and got the following error:

assert failed: getprop("ro.product.device") == "d2tmo" II
getprop("ro.product.product") == "d2tmo"
E: Error in /sdcard/SGH-T999_TMB_287866950.zip
(status 7)
Installation aborted.

I tried installing with the above filed in the internal and external sd cards. I didnt flash STOCK T999UVALH2 as I had already updated to T999UVALH2 via Kies.

Any ideas? Do I need to do a factory reset or unroot?

Updated from stock rooted UVALH2. Clear data,cache, and dalvik cache and flashed in CWM. It took a little long to flash but everything worked. It really is 4.1.1 jellybean. However, it is not smooth whatsoever on the homescreen and app/widgets drwaers. Less smooth than ICS. Menus and the recent apps screen are smooth like they should be for project butter and smoother than ICS. I kept my root even after i flashed which surprised me.

Some changes...

-Access Google Now from Recent apps screen
-S Voice settings in the system settings menu
-Jellybean clock in drop down status bar/notification area
-5 app dock on the lockscreen
-2 different types of homescreens--basic and easy.
-New t-mobile bloatware
-Probably more I just havent seen yet

    Definition: A leak: A firmware update that someone sneaks out of a testing lab or off a test phone. Meaning NOT the release, not usually altered by the OP, and usually has some or many bugs.
    This as is all software on XDA is use at your own risk.
    For those wanting perfect stability stick to stock.
    Adventurous types don't mind a few bugs to see what the next firmware update will look like.
    Negative comments are not necessary here nor anywhere on XDA.
    If you like to report the bugs you find that would be constructive and not a worthless post like "this sucks" or "worst ever".
    Everyone uses their phone differently and what does not work for one may work or not be needed for another.

    Thank you for your cooperation
