I had a rooted UK image on my Rogers phone. I had the Xloud update. The battery life was terrible and lasted 8 hours standby only. So I reflashed the Rogers FW and now I’m back on the 2.3.3 and no Xloud. The OTA and PC update says there are no updates to be had. Has anyone from Rogers been able to update via OTA of PC?
Thanks
Rogers hasn't released an update yet.
Dam Rogers.
I just realized I lost all my pictures when my Fn SD card went corrupted.

Like in my question. Is there OTA update for UK generic or I'll just have to wait till it's released? My 2.3.3 phone is rooted and I don't want to lose it when updating via SEUS.
I'm on UK generic and no ota update for me yet
I flashed back to 2.3.2 and only get the first update not the 4.0 fw
Only a matter of time though I guess
Got it in Canada yesterday
Just got it for UK generic. Downloading it as I type.
Me too, patiently waits for the OTA update here, good thing they already released it yesterday.. I'm using UK generic too. TS, the availability of the OTA update depends on your place.
can someone confirm OTA update is available for the uk ?, i updated via pc companion and lost root but so I am waiting for OTA to become available
cheers
does root work if you OTA from 2.3.2 to the 2.3.3 (xloud frimware) ?

Yes i received the xloud update (4.0.a) last night over ota and root is still kept. Uk r800i.
If you flash 2.3.2 again then root and ota it will update you to the xloud firmware with root.
1 question do i have to unfreeze all bloatware before i can perform OTA for the new firmware 4.0?
Thanks
Yes you do or else the update will think you have uninstalled them. Just make a list of what you have frozen. Unfreeze > ota to 4.0.a then refreeze whats on your list plus a few other new things.
I just received the upgrade via OTA i guess is to 4.0 since i already have 2.3.3 and the size is 78 mb. I downloaded it correctly, it try to update but after 3 reboots (normal reboots the phone does it itself) it says that could not update, does anyone nows why? I have a rooted Xperia Play and it isnt unlocked.
PD. Everything seems okay it didnt mess up anything, just didnt update correctly.

Same here on my GF Play, I just removed bloatware. Any help?
Hey guys,
I live in the Netherlands and bought the captivate glide as soon it was simlock free. The problem I am now facing though is getting the 2.3.6 update. While checking for the OTA update via the phone, it does see the update, but can't download it due to 'connecting issues' (since the update is on an AT&T server and the phone being in the Netherlands on a different provider, that does make sense).
Now, how or where can I get a hold of the OTA update to put on the phone via the pc? I saw somewhere on XDA forums that someone put it online, but it was removed from the fileshareing site.
I'm not into rooting the phone at the moment, though I might be in the future. Overclocking won't be necessary either since it's really fast, so I'd rather not put other kernels or roms on it.
Who can help me?
It is being discussed here

Apprently people (including myself) are not able to update to 2.3.6 when not on AT&T network..
I have the One X from HK and am using it in India. I rooted and unlocked the device but am still on the stock rom and software version 1.26.708.2 - Which OTA update applies to me? I'm not able to force the update on the phone (keeps spinning when looking for update) - Do I have to un-root and re-lock in order to get this OTA update? Sorry if this is a repeat question...

The newest one is 1.28.708.10. I live in Australia and I have the same phone as you (from HK) and I got the OTA update yesterday (1.28.708.10). I did re-locked my phone and ran the RUU 1.26.708.3 before I did the OTA update.

Is it because I'm in India that I haven't gotten the update yet? Is it carrier specific?

I don't think it's carrier specific. Because when I bought my 2nd One X (Optus handset) and I use a Telstra sim card I still got the Optus update for my handset. And I didn't have any sim card on the HK handset when I got the OTA update I only had the wifi turned on and downloaded the OTA update via wifi.

Just a reminder that you need to be on a "stock" ROM unrooted and have stock recovery and locked bootloader. Personally I would go back to full stock (bootloader locked, stock recovery and stock ROM) and then you can try to update. I'm not sure but being rooted even if you are using stock ROM might give you the problem of not seeing the OTA update, but saying that I am not 100% sure if being rooted can create that problem. It is better to be on all stock is just my opinion.
Still on 1.26
Hi guys, I still haven't updated my phone to 1.28 or 1.29. Running 1.26, still rooted and unlocked. Is the best option for me to re-lock bootloader and use the 1.29 RUU file to do a manual update? Having issues with battery so want to do this asap, thanks for any help.
Finally updated
I was able to finally update after re-locking, putting back stock recovery and using RUU to get to 1.29. Titanium backup is pretty awesome and came in handy to restore phone to almost original state, thanks for your help.
father jut got a new s3 on tmobile...
do i need to install kies for this or is it OTA
thanks
4.0.4 is. I'd assume 4.1.1 is too, when it drops. It's the norm these days.
Just go to Settings... About.... Software update.
I am upgrading my brother from a an AT&T Galaxy Note II to my unlocked T-Mobile Galaxy Note 3 N900T for his birthday. When he visited a year ago I remember attempting the 4.1.1 service menu unlock but finding that he had already updated to 4.1.2. I totally expected to find him on 4.3 or higher this year, but I see that he is still on 4.1.2. There was no notification about an update.. He has already switched his SIM into the Gnote3 so that's probably why I'm getting this message when I check "Software Update" on the phone:
"DM initialization is not ready. Check network or SIM card"
He wanted me to backup all his old stuff and load it on the new one. Once set up with the needed version of Kies (2.6; 3.x only works with late 2013 to current phones), it said that the phone was already updated to the latest version even though it was only 4.1.2.
What happened to 4.3 from December last year?! What happened to Kit Kat?! Why wasn't he prompted to update a long time ago?!
Well, nothing said that I had to have a SIM card in there to get the update and I certainly shouldn't have to if it is downloaded on WiFi anyway, but I did finally get it to show the OTA update to 4.3 and then again to 4.4.2 after putting in an active AT&T SIM. Obviously it had a SIM card in it for the last year that my brother has been using it so I still don't know why he was never prompted for the update.
I still have question though. Why couldn't it go straight to 4.4.2? Why is neither AT&T 4.3 nor AT&T 4.4.2 firmwares available online or in Kies? Why does Kies insist that 4.1.2 is the "latest" instead of simply saying that it does not have any newer updates at this time (it certainly wasn't the "latest")? Why does SamMobile say that they have all official Samsung firmwares including carrier and generic when they absolutely do not?!
