Another OTA Update (next week) - Samsung Epic 4G Touch

Not sure if this was already posted, at least I didn't see it. Anyway, if it was, my apologies. Just wanted to pass along.
According to the Sprint website
12/15 update - for those devices where the update has started but did not complete successfully, there will be a fix available soon. The target is next week, but nothing 'official yet'. I don't have information on whether it will be a new OTA push or available only via the Service Centers, but will post an update as soon as I learn more.
It seems like there were more than a few issues on the whole EG30/31 thing so they need to do it again, lol. I'm just wondering if now they will take the opportunity to just combine it with the EL13 update.

What?!?!? A Samsung update that just causes more issues? Nooooo....

Wonder if that is going to be EL13, EK02 repacked with a full modem.bin, or an even newer build than we've seen.

I was wondering the same. Maybe a OTA that has CIQ stripped out. Sprint is obviously trying to save face right now. They are trying to keep us at bay. Look what happened once we started bombing everyone with CIQ info.

I wouldn't be surprised of Sprint isn't removing CIQ software.

New maintenance FW upgrade in testing - EK02 now

Looks like Samsprint is working on the next upgrade finally.... I had been looking for the .rdf files nearly daily since release and I knew Samsprint reps were full of **** when they said it would be released soon.
http://device.sprintpcs.com/Samsung/SPH-D710/EJ28.rdf
Based on OG Epic experience, I would expect at least 3-4 more internal testing releases before OTA release. I will plan to reach out to Samfirmware to see if we can get a leak. If anyone has a premium upgrade /w samfirmware, feel free to ask direct for us since I don't
For those who don't know the releases are based on letter for the month, J for October since J is 10th letter in alphabet, and the 28 is the day. So this is the first testing firmware so far and it was made October 28th.
Edit: ej31 now....

They are just files made used somewhere for sprint whenever a new firmware is created. Most the time they are internal testing so all it shows really is they are at least making updates which before now they weren't.

OTA FH13 now...

I've been seeing FH leaks and just received OTA FH13. Didn't update since I don't want to lose root.
I'm curious how is sprint pushing FH13 since I see leak even of coming soon FH28?
So, does this mean after testing different FH builds, sprint figured FH13 is best?
Screen shot.
Fh13 is just means the date it was made. So fh28 would be august 28th a newer build that isn't released yet. Also you could have gotten the update anytime through kies on a computer.

No leaks are available here on the development section. Not every leak is released officially by Samsung and pushed as an OTA. We'll only get FH28 if someone with connections leaks it, or if Samsung decides to make it official they'll release it as well but through kies and pushed through phone. Just remember F=2012 H=August 28=Date. Newer the better, usually. Sorry it's 430am, hope I'm clear. Haha

You sure FH23 is better than FH13? Sounds like people are having issues with it. Or maybe you meant when/if it's official it will be better.
I had issues with the fh13 leak but the update through kies worked fine. That's why these are leaks they might be getting worked on still.

I believe we found this was a problem in the build that he tried. Should be OK now, rooted or not.
So was their solution to the battery issue to simply jack the brightness way down? Because it feels like my screen is notably darker than it was previously (was using auto-brightness.)
My phone lives in a dock most of the day so I probably won't be able to notice any battery life changes as much as other people.

I'm trying out a stock rooted deodexed build I made a little bit ago and it seems like the scrolling is a little bit different from FI25. Also, I haven't run stock in forever, so are these wifi icons the same as they've been for a while? :screwy:
And yes the recent apps "bug" is still there but can be fixed pretty easily.

Damn it. I always forget that part. And yes it is a change from FI25 to FI27. I fixed the OP. Thanks!
I'm running Re-Calked 0.2.1 FI25. Last night I flashed Agat's 0.6.0. No problems at that point. Early this morning I flashed the FI27 modem.
Checked my phone later and had the dreaded LOS. Flashed back to the FI25 modem and all is well. I'm going to need my phone for awhile so I'll have to stay on 25 until I can get some free time to try again. I've only seen this on my phone a couple of times, and the last time was probably last December.
Anyone else seeing this? I'm in a good signal area, and my wife's phone had a strong signal at the time.
Hopefully this is an isolated case.

The AT&T Jelly Bean Release Thread (4.1.1 released; Kies and OTA)

4.1.1 is out and, contrary to what Samsung said, the update is available on Kies and OTA! Yes, OTA is here!
Congrats to Corey_r and longcat14 for winning the pool. No one else even had a chance, haha.
To enter and/or view the Release Date Pool, check the 2nd post.
"One thread to rule them all..."
Instructions: Post all yo rumors, rants, and revelations about the upcoming AT&T Jelly Bean update here.
Official release date from Samsung: "Coming Soon!"
(last checked on 11/30; source)
Official release date from AT&T: "...very near future."
(last checked on 11/30; source; thanks, Randun)
​
Anonymous Source: Samsung's AT&T GS3 Jelly Bean User Trials started in May and have been completed; we're just waiting on AT&T. The ROM should be in its final stages of testing soon.
Jelly Bean Version: Most likely 4.1 Before 11/28, chatter from multiple official AT&T sources stated 4.2 (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6) However, then AT&T quietly released the above Support Article, which stated 4.1.The Support Article is the most concrete evidence we have, so it will probably be Jelly Bean 4.1.
Confirmed Jelly Bean TouchWiz features:
Camera
New camera/camcorder filters: warm vintage, cold vintage, black and white, sepia, color highlights(blue, green, red/yellow), and many more.
Pause and resume recording
Low light mode (uses HDR)
Phone-wide
Pop Up Play can be resized and paused
Introduction of Easy Mode: large Easy widgets (for first-time smartphone users)
Introduction of Blocking Mode: disable incoming calls, notifications, alarms, and LED indicators for a designated period of time
Introduction of Swype® Keyboard (bundled)
AllShare® Cast Wireless Hub support
NFC One Touch Pairing Support: pair a supported Bluetooth device via NFC

Honestly I hope not. This is hurting sales for AT&T GS3s. Especially with the Note 2 coming with JB. Samsung has some control over when the update is pushed out, but just like with ICS they wanna make sure their newest phone sells before updating the previous model.

I'm unsure overall. And don't worry there's no chance it will already be mb1 lol. If new out of box, it will at a minimum be at LJ7. Ma6 and mb1 have been released in the last week. The phones in box left the factory months ago and haven't been updated since maybe in a few months the new in box phones will have the mb1 update so just get ready as if your LJ7 or a previous version.

In my case I was rooted with ma6. Got the ota update with stock recovery. Then had to re-root.

I really do not know. I went to MA6 from whatever was previous on my phone(4.1.1). then I rooted then next morning OTA MB1 and rerooted all in less than 48 hours. So i have really no way of knowing what changes were in between MA6 and MB1. There were some minor changes I noticed after updating to MA6.
Google Settings appeared in the App drawer. I think there were some keyboard modifications where there is a separate heptic feedback switch to turn on or off.
Other than that I think everything else was behind the scenes type stuff and bug fixes.
before buying on craigslist, request the ESN number and call up sprint to see if its clean. First thing you should do

Thanks guys. I already picked it up and its great. Everything seems to be working and I can't find a single scratch on it. He gave me a nice case too. Anywho, now that I have it I see I'm on LJ7. How are you guys updating the baseband? I updated PRL, Profile, and I checked for a firmware update but there was none. I am on stock recovery (for now...lol).

Ok, Settings /manage apps /all.
Scroll down to Google services framework. Force stop. Clear data.
Back out to settings. System update, update samsung software. Try a couple of times if necessary.

Just wanna make sure. Regardless of which baseband I'm on, any rom should work, right? Sprint roms of course. It's just that on the Note 2, some baseband versions wouldn't play nice with certain roms (cause errors, etc.). I'm seeing some roms in dev section saying, "based on ma5" or "based on ljc." Does that mean I HAVE to be on that baseband to flash that rom? Sorry for all the noobish questions but when you bounce around devices, you get confused

Samsung devices act the same. I suggest you read a whole lot more since your question reveals that you really have no idea what you are doing and a brick is in the future... I realize you're excited to play around, but the results of fapping with tissue paper and fapping with sand paper stem from more than just a simple word.

A brick is NOT in my future. Look I respect the fact that you've been around a while and have helped many out but just because I ask a noobish question doesn't mean I'm a noob. I've owned an OG Evo, a EVO 3d, the EVO 4g LTE, the galaxy nexus, the sg2, the gnote 2, and sg3 and many more I probably can't remember right now. I have been a "flashoholic" for quite a while, flashing roms, radios, mods, etc. I've even helped devs build flashable zips to install mods. I HAVE NEVER BRICKED A DEVICE. Maybe my question wasn't clear but it doesn't matter cuz I already updated my baseband to mb 1 and I've flashed several roms, all without incident. It seems to me that all roms work regardless of what baseband your on (as long as they are for the right device). I respect you and others on this forum and I just didn't appreciate the tone with which this came across.
