AT&T has recently suspended the Android 4.3 Jelly Bean update deployment for Samsung Galaxy S4 and now word has it that the carrier has just kicked off the rollout of another update.

This time, Samsung Galaxy S III users will be able to upgrade their devices to the long-awaited Android 4.3 Jelly Bean platform. Hopefully, Samsung will not botch this release like it did with the Galaxy S4 update, but we can't confirm it for the moment.

According to XDA, software version build number I747UCUEMJB is now pushed OTA (over the air) to all AT&T Galaxy S III units. Given the fact that this is a staged rollout, it will probably take some time until the update reaches all devices.

Aside from bumping the software's phone to Android 4.3, the update also brings Samsung Galaxy Gear and KNOX compatibility, as well as lots of new features and improvements.
