System Update available from Sprint - Samsung Epic 4G Touch

Sprint Cell Phones : How do I update my Epicâ„¢ 4G Touch (SPH-d710) mobile device to the EL29 software?
http://www.samsung.com/us/support/SupportOwnersFAQPopup.do?faq_id=FAQ00045674&fm_seq=46340

We know there is a system update. Most of us have had it for the last few weeks.

The best option is to wait to get the push notification. I got mine yesterday.
Or you can check yourself thru the settings menu but 9x out of 10 it will say system up to date.

Thank you for the information as mentioned prior this info and custom roms have been out for quite some time now. Just to save yourself the embarrassment of maybe not so positive posts I would do a thorough search in google and xda before posting any information. Chances are your questions or concerns have already been asked and answered

well if u dont want to wait for the update u can download odin it in the update
here a link to how to do it and the files http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1433101
and of course i dont take any credit for this

So I am new to the epic community ... so please don't flame too much but I got my phone with EK02, rooted, and installed the hot spot fix... now I see there is an update and I tried to install but it failed. What do I need to do to get the update and reroot with the hotspot fix. Thanks in advzncs from a noob.

There are/were posts about this. The dev section has had the EL29 update for a month already as well. No need to be sorry was just pointing it out but also next time search there are numerous threads on the update even in this part of the forums.

I got my update last night.

I also need help. My phone is stock + rooted. It popped up with the update notification but when I selected update it just rebooted to a triangle exclamation mark. I was able to boot into CWM and then reboot normally..... Is there any way for me to install EL29 over the air?

The raw EL29 OTA update from Sprint/Google won't install if you have CWM.
I suggest you use this thread if you want an OTA "patch" style update:

Alternatively you could use the pre-rooted EL29 ODIN One-Click in my signature.

Q about wifi calling

Hey I'm switching from an infuse w att to an s2 on T-Mobile tonight.
I'm excited for a new toy and all but mostly BC of the wifi calling. I read somewhere earlier this phone does not have wifi calling? I'm kind of confused. Its not a Problem if I have to root and install a rom to get it to work I just need to know. Thanks!
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using XDA App
It supports wifi calling as of the latest ota update. It works great.
2.3.5 does not have WiFi calling
2.3.6 does.
Just flash a ROM if you are stuck at 2.3.5.

sick. I click update and it says no firmware. I just got this phone two hours ago. Does this only update via kies?
And...now for the direction of roms and all...coming from an infuse, I have no idea where to start beyond doing the root with odin as stated in the big root thread. I'm used to putting the rom on the card and flashing. nothing else. Never added kernels and such. I'd like the best battery life and to keep my wifi as good as possible (Ive heard some rome stop the wifi calling and all)
Yeah the thing that sucks is you have to wait till the firmware is pushed to your phone.
Odin is only used to flash the recovery and kernels.
After flashing the recovery, you can put ROMs on the SD card like normal and flash it.

hmmm kies said I could update it through there...so the phone is on the charger now before i start.
I havent rooted yet bc I wanted to get the 2.3.6 to make sure wifi calling works. I'll update, then root...oh...the HOW TO ROOT section has whatever PDA in it to use, will that work with 2.3.6?
Glad i remembered to ask that now lol
Ohhh and the UNROOT newer "easy" link doesn't work. says to tell an admin...not sure about that.
u also need the newest simcard for the wifi calling to work as well

yes when you flash the recover in odin you select it under pda and let it finish and reboot.. the oneclick rooting method doesnt work with the new 2.3.6.. also not sure which easy unroot method youre talking about but if its the zedomax rom i suggest staying away from it because others have reported that after flashing it the phone was no longer recognize by the computer or odin best way to go back to stock is to flash the stock 2.3.6 md5 with odin found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1350360..

yep u can still use the same files in the how to thread the clockwork recovery and superuser might be older versions i think but you can update the clockwork recovery with rom manager just make sure you choose the 1 that says samsung t-mobile galaxy s2 and can update the superuser in the market.. oh and when you first flash the su file in recover it might not stick the first time but dont worry just keep flashing it til it completes some ppl have said it sticks even if it doesnt complete but i just keep flashing til it did ive gotten it to finish on the second or third time whenever it didnt stick the first try
woot. rooted and su installed and running. Now to find a rom I like...

Whoever said odin is just used to flash recovery's and kernels doesn't know what they are talking about. I would say use odin to do the 2.3.6 update because it will update ALL of your firmware and not just the rom.

Can't update

I'm rooted running 4.1.2 ma4, I have an update but it keeps failing, first it was bc I had twrp recovery. Flashed the stock recovery but it still fails. And it won't let me try again for 24 hours. What should I do? Can someone post a stock rooted ver I can flash? I can't find the update in my phone or id flash it myself. Been trying for a few days since I can only try once a day lol.
Plz help before I pull the rest of my hair out.

What is in the update that's worth pulling your hair out? My experience with these minor updates is that they push more at&t bloatware.
So no one can help me? I realize it may not be important to u but I want the update. That's why I posted, not to get criticized

The update is just probably a few minor changes. Most likely it'll be a modem upgrade. Especially if you just got the phone! Latest modem is the MC3. But you can look HERE:

I wasn't criticizing you, I was trying to help you get a better perspective on the situation so your hair could stay where it should. No one else is getting an upgrade notice that I've seen posted on xda.
I'm thinking its an error. Go to settings, application manager, at&t software update, and clear cache or data, then see if you still get notified. Other models of phones got notified, but it was an error on the server.
Att software update app is greyed out and I can't click anything. It has an,! Mark by the app too. Can someone post a clean apk maybe? Or any other ideas?

Rooted MA4 will of course take the update to MC3..using the stock recovery...but only if the device is clean ...and the counter is reset..
I've had the same error multiple times....and could only get around it by pushing the rooted MA4 build from Mr. Robinson's thread...then running triangle away to reset the counter ...and then resetting the device to factory in the 3e recovery contained in the rooted build...
I hope this helps you ...g

Will u post a link to mr robinsons thread? I wont be near my pc for a couple days. And hunting on my phone takes forever. Ill look around but a link would be great . I know people get mad but I am searching .just not having much luck.
Also why does my counter keep tripping ? Im on stock kernal and recovery.just rooted. But under settings/about device it says modified

Bump, any help? Still no luck.
Sent from my Motorola starTAC
Can someone tell me where it downloads to, so maybe I can flash a custom recovery and flash it that way? Since it's a small update will I loose root?
Edit: I have it downloaded and postponed, I have looked everywhere with root Explorer with no luck.
If someone does tell me where it is, can I flash back to TWRP or CWM and flash it that way? Its doing the same thing another guy who posted said, it acts like it's working fine then at %25 it fails and reboots then won't let me try for another day. If anyone could please help before the postponed timer runs out I would be so thankful. I have been battling this for almost 2 weeks.

No one? I haven't found a thread that has an Odin file with the latest update. I guess I will revert to bone stock, no root. Update. Then root again. That seems my only way out unless someone chimes in, hint hint lol.

As I said before, there isn't an update. The notification was an error. Many devices got the notification message, but there was no update.
Wouldn't there be a thread about it if there was?
OBTW the Mr. Robinson thread is like the 16th thread in the development forum.
Yea the current is mc3 and I'm on ma4 so there is an update, I read this from AT&Ts website
Edit. Ok I'm confused.. On xda the ma4 threads are newer. But if u read this it says mc3 is latest

Any way you look at it, its not an important update. Like I said, most likely increased at&t bloat. You probably can't update because you're current. Hmmm. . .

If you be on 98.18.94 do the OTA of the same name!
....98.30.1 do the OTA likewise.

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=52716429&postcount=25
I was on 98.18.94 and updated to KK 182. I froze system apps and it refused to boot. Then i RSD'd to 98.30.1 and that gave me the KK 183. update. NOTHING on the phone changed. Bootloader still unlocked and everything. I believe they're pretty much identical and it doesnt matter which update you take.
I was kind in the same situation, I was on 98.18.94, but was rooted and couldn't take the OTA. Used House of Moto to go to 98.30.1 and then was able to take OTA. I still have the original KitKat OTA Blur_Version.98.18.94.XT907.Verizon.en.US.zip that I pulled before going to 98.30.1. Are you saying I should be using that version 182.46.10.xt907 instead of 183.46.10.xt907 since I originally had the 98.18.94? Any idea what the difference is between the 2 versions?

I no longer have a M. I did check the recoveries & they have different md5's.
There have been just too many borks associated with this neglect of name/build subtlety to ignore it.
Since I have the original OTA could I either down grade and apply the correct OTA or since I have an unlocked bootloader would I be able to reinstall the original without the down grade step?

Consult @SamuriHL
But just a do over seems best.
If you're unlocked, just downgrade using the UNIVERSAL RSD script back to 9.30.1, then install the OTA zip for 9.30.1. See here:

Nope, and I was told by someone who would absolutely know that they hadn't been pushed to the servers yet...
This guy popped up out of the clear blue sky and said he had the file almost as soon as the OTA started going live.

Yes, I talked to our mutual friend about it a few days ago and was told the same thing. How stras1234 managed to acquire the FXZ so quickly is beyond me but truly amazing. We were highly skeptical when he posted that he had it on droidrzr. I guess we should have looked into it a bit further. LOL. But that's what prompted me to ask our mutual friend about it and when he said it wasn't out, my skepticism grew. Ah well. Most impressive!

I was originally on 98.18.94 and rooted. I ended up using House of Moto to install the 98.30.1 because OTA failed. I was then able to get the OTA. The OP is saying I should be using 182.46.10.xt907 version and not 183.46.10.xt907. So if I go back to 98.30.1 can I then install the correct OTA, or is there a place to get the file to downgrade to my original version? I went to http://sbf.droid-developers.org/ and it did not have my version to download.

Since the FXZ for KK was posted, I've updated my thread with instructions on how to use it. I'd just flash that and call it good. The whole 182 vs 183 nonsense is a red herring. There's no difference between the builds except the build number and signing keys. Personally if I still had a Moto phone I'd be sticking with the FXZ path regardless of what anyone says.
im currently running KK, get kitkat from ota update and my KK version is 183.46.10. can i reflash to this FXZ??it is save? my phone is unlocked bootloader.. need your help. thank you

I dont now why..but i found bug with version 183..sometimes i got my phone cant turn on from lockscreen..and can only fix it using hard reboot (press vol up+vol down+power in the same time)..i hope with version 182 can be solved..and another question is after ota update my model number is XT905 NOT XT907 OR Razr M..dunno why
Sent from my XT907 using XDA Free mobile app
That's odd about XT905 (since neither the Electrify M, nor the Aussie Razr M got KitKat yet - they're both can be XT905 for some reason), but yes, you could try to flash again via RSD Lite for a cleaner system. It doesn't matter if it's 182 or 183 though, as it's the same version.
OT: But for the Electrify M which is XT901 an update is announced at Moto's site now.

Were you rooted with a custom recovery? You should know that you need to be 100% stock to accept updates and as this clearly is made to block root you cannot even be "just rooted."
That's exactly right. My phone was "just rooted". Lesson learned. The bright part is I got another chance to refresh my experience to use odin to unblock it.

Glad you got it working. Always wise to wait and see what others say about the OTA's first. It is safe to assume that security will only get tighter going forward. Wait for developers to pull bootloader and baseband out as a flashable, then also update the ROMs to be able to get on the latest. Most of the time someone will post a pure stock rooted ROM.
How do you use odin to unblock this OTA? What do you load?

The stock keyboard is killing me when choosing words from the suggested list with this update. It always double spaces when selecting a word! That and with swipe not being totally accurate it's a headache. Guess I'll download kii and make it my default.. It's also crazy how this phone never gets updated with new kernels. My mom's S3 went up to 3.4.0 after kitkat and this phone did not. Why?

Got this update ove the air. Unfornately it broke my phone. Now it is stuck when booting. Recovering. I leaned a lesson not to trust any update and I should have done a backup.

It's easy to root NK2 or recover from from the issue you're having. See the topic I just posted HOW TO ROOT NK2 / Fix boot loop after NE2 to NK2 update
Hope it helps. Good luck!

One can only wonder what the heck verizon does to their software such that it requires a 612meg security patch huh?
Anyhow.. Time to use that nandroid i posed in the dev section to accept the OTA.. -or- I will post an updated one later this evening.
Probably 600mb of updated NFL bloatware included and the rest just the security update.
Any word yet on whether this is really just a 612Meg security patch?

yup, nothing special
Anyone know if letting this thing run and update will break root? I'm stock, rooted. Don't want to lose that and not be able to get it back myself.

are you SOFF? if so, you will be fine
Yes.. I'm s-off and unlocked. So after it updates, will it still be rooted? Or would I havery to re-root it? I'm just worried because my cable Internet isn't working for a few days and I need my wifi tether. Thanks
Ran into an issue with this update. It failed to install on 11/3 with a error code 409, but when I try to download it again by selecting "Check for new system updates" it says I have the latest update. I've rebooted a number of times and it shows up every time. From what little information I can find online, I have to reset my phone to factory then attempt to update again. I want to avoid this so here I am.
I'm on my phone so I can't properly upload the screenshots. I posted Google Drive links for now

Flash the custom firmware zip and restore the nandroid I posted of the update. Then wipe data for the app htcdm. Flash supersu.zip and you're done.

I'm not rooted.
Update: I decided to just to a factory reset. Thankfully it worked and I am at the latest firmware.
So I've tried letting this update run a couple times. Downloading for the third time as I write this. When it tries to install, it just reboots into TWRP recovery and does nothing. Then I restart the phone and basically start the process all over again. Any guidance on how to get this squared away?? I met one of the members here with a card who S-offed, unlocked, rooted, my phone which I'm thankful for. Just want to be stock rooted is all. Don't really do much with custom roms on this phone. Thanks.

I'm pretty sure you need stock recovery to take an OTA.
