Android 4.3

[Tornstol]

I currently have 4.1.2 Samsung Galaxy S3, is there any safe way to get the 4.3 without damaging the phone?

Go on the XDA developers forum, there are a few 4.3 ROMs available for the galaxy s3 on there.

It's apparently coming soon.

Well, basically I suck at searching software. I've seen my buddy with the S4 and the official ROM from Google and it looked sick plus way more features than my silly 4.1.2 jellybean android.
Any help will be tremendously appreaciated.

Just wait for the official release. Judging by the link trippin posted, it's only a matter of time.

If you have to ask, then you shouldn't go for any custom ROM, because you could brick your phone if you don't know what are you doing. Just wait for the official release.

This. If you're needing this much help just finding the ROM, you'll definitely need a LOT more help actually flashing it. Unless you're comfortable with the fact that you might brick (in otherwords, render it INOP) your phone.... Just wait for the official release which should be coming soon.

Your S4 should already have it. If not then you're probably running 4.2.2

Edit2: If you plan on rooting - DO NOT TAKE THE OVER THE AIR UPDATE. Chances are they'll have a lock on the bootloader which will render rooting difficult if not impossible.
