[Q] New update? - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Anyone else get a message that there was a new update for the stock ROM? If so anyone know it fixes and changes? They don't seem to have any info on there website about the update.

I gave my stepdad my old Evo when I upgraded, and he was telling me just now that he got an update on it. I came here to ask the same thing you are.

The interesting thing is it doesn't say what it is. I still have not been able to find anything about this update and what it does.

A guy I work with that has the same phone, not rooted, said he updated, and his phone is like a hell of a lot faster. We have both been having speed and signal issues, now he says he can actually watch youtube. Must be nice.

It adds sprint connections optimizer and still remains android 2.3.5. The update version is 5.07 and the previous before that was 4.67.

Who downloaded 4.1.2 update?

Is anyone able to download the update ota? When I check for it it gives me a weird message .. update is provided to users in order they request it. Try later....
What the hell?
Does this mean we are actually getting that update and did anyone successfully download it ota by checking for one?
Is so what is different? Someone mentioned it has a radio update? Will it make the 4g speeds faster?
Thanks in advance

I don't think the 4.1.2 update is out yet...the update (UVJC) is just a minor one still 4.1.1 with a few security fixes and a new radio.

Now i see. Do u get 4g still? The area where im at right now doesnt have 4g. That might be my issue. I spoke to a tech support guy and he said thats the reason im not showing it in my settings. Hmmm Idk about that lol.
Sent from my Galaxy S3 using neighbors wifi
You're not getting 4g anyhow. Because this phone isn't compatible with T-Mobile's 4g network.
4g is really HSPA+.

Got my OTA update the night of Feb 5th. I dont notice a difference since installing but it is only a small update anyway.
So why does mine doesn't let me update it.. keeps saying update is in order which it was requested in or something like that.. what the hell it's 4 days already and I cannot download it.. it says try again... what the freak... is it a normal thing with this update? What do they mean in order that the update was requested.. how can someone request it before me if they are on T-Mobile as me? Makes me confused... last ota update just said there is a new version available...
Can anyone explain?

Yeah, when I was waiting for Jelly Bean, i did mine via Kies because it didn't show up in the software update but a week later my wife's showed up in software update. This update however isn't worth getting worked up about not getting it right away.

Well, i did update. Don't know what was updated, the phone rebooted to cwm in about 5 secs after process started. Got root and nothing new, nothing different...except some numbers now are different from my wife's phone. I'll try to post pics. First one is my wife's phone, second is mine.

Yeah that was the update from like a month ago. The radio was changed with some security fixes. UVLI4 is the latest one, and i got that like a month ago.
Thank you all very much, seems I haven't received anything at all cause mine is the second one. Im such a noob, don't matter how much I've roamed around here. Lol!!!
I have a q, again, will that update mess up with like cwm or root when/if I receive it? Will I have to root again?
Also the first one went from 4.0.3 to 4.0.4 with that update, but mine had 4.0.4 out of the box. They were bought with a difference of there months at most. First one I got starting last December, the second one at the end of this February but still outdated according to those numbers. But when I check for updates it states there are none. Whatever, thanks again.
I didn't notice that I had posted on the general thread instead of q&a thread, please move if needed. Sorry about that too.

You will not be able to update like that with cwm installed. Has to be on the stock recovery. Doesn't really answer your questions, just more of an FYI.

Hey, you should have posted before, lol, that answers all the questions I had, and probably a couple of the questions I might have, hahaha. Since I didn't wait for any updates before rooting and haven't searched for any either this was bound to happen. I should have searched more. What a waste of 1 and 0.

Yup it's the custom recovery that will prevent an update. When you load a custom recovery you are basically saying "I am the administrator of my phone, not T-Mobile". So it is up to you to apply updates. Also if you dont want to see the update notification anymore you can freeze the Device Management process with Titanium Backup or Rom Toolbox.
Well, not long after there was an update, Lol, though not directly from tmous, at least for me.
What a bump. Hahaha

ATT Pushing OTA Update Today

ATT just tried to push an OTA update to my Note 2. I don't know what is in this update. I suspect it is 4.3. At least one of the local dealers told me they expected it any day. Unfortunately, with my rooted phone and missing some ATT bloatware, ATT OTA updates always fail for me. They download OK. But when they try to install it fails.
Did anyone else get this update? Do you know what it is?
I will probably just take one of the 4.3 (or 4.4) ROMs from here. But I am curious what it is.

Are you rooted with Stock UCAMH3?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using xda app-developers app
Yes I am stock and rooted. But I have deleted a bunch of the ATT Bloatware. My understanding is that updates won't install without some of that stuff. Apparently it checks during the update process. I don't really want to reinstall all that junk just to get the updates.

Unrooted Stock
The S4 Actives had the same problem when we all went to a pre-release firmware... Could download current firmware OTA but failed on install. Only solution was to go to the Samsung rep at best buy to force the update (with their secret software).
Any idea of the size of the update that's being pushed?

I don't think 165MB is the 4.3 update. It was an update for 4.1.2 months ago. Did you have that?
