• Turn WiFi on. Goto Settings > About Phone > Software update. touch Update. (assuming you're updated to 2.3.4 DDKQ6 and you 're signed in to Samsung account. If you doesn't have a samsung account, create one easily under 'Samsung account'.)

• The phone will be started automatically after installing the update. You'll be welcomed with the new lock screen just like Galaxy S2.
