T-Mobile Galaxy S2 Gets Android 4.1.2 Jelly Bean Update

If you are still rocking on to your old faithful, the smartphone that is better known as the Samsung Galaxy S2, then those of you who are subscribers of T-Mobile and owners of the handset might want to take note that T-Mobile has already updated the Galaxy S2 support page earlier this morning, where Android 4.1.2 Jelly Bean has been made available.

Of course, this particular update will remain an optional one, but I do not see any reason not to give it a go. Right now, the only installation method available would be to go through Samsung’s Kies software, so forget about refreshing your handset for an Over The Air (OTA) download. The manual download is known as T989UVMC6 where it will bump up your Android version to 4.1.2, although you would do well to ensure that your Galaxy S2 is fully charged and connected to a local Wi-Fi network instead of relying on your data plan, since the entire update tips the scales at approximately 756MB. A truly great way to start off your Monday, no?
