Has anyone figured out how to fix the at&t ota update issue? I just a new red s3 yesterday and when i check for ota updates, i get an error message that says the phone cant connect to the servers bacause they are busy and the phone will automatically check in 48 hrs. This is a new one for me. I also cant connect to kies via computer so when jelly bean is released, ill be sol. Any ideas?

no luck
I just got back from the at&t store and they were gonna exchange the phone but the new phone did the same thing. Also, one of the employees tried it on their personal phone and it did the same thing. Hmmm.
Maybe area related?

Mine did that too. Fixed after I rooted. I'm now running stock but rooted and the check for updates now works fine.
My son just got an S3 yesterday -- I'll have to see if this is working on his. He hasn't rooted yet, but he will in the next day or so; hence, maybe it's a moot point.

Anyone see this http://www.facebook.com/USCellular/posts/173189566049534 from US Cellular's facebook page?
It says they are getting Froyo for their Galaxy S phone (the Mesmerize) in March. Hope this has nothing to do with our update...
Probably not the canada one got its update via samsung kies a few days back

Verizon SHOULD be updating theirs in 2 days. Might happen, might not. Idk. Cant bring myself to worry about these things any longer.
So my girlfriend and I just got the Galaxy S3, blue for me white for her (not that, that matters) I have Flash 11.1 on my phone but for some reason she can not get it on her phone. When she trys to download it, it says its not available in our country (USA) Does anyone know what gives? She spent hours on the phone with tech and even exchanged her phone for a new one and still has the same problem.

cant get flash with the updated firmware anymore.. sux.
Flash was pull from the play store on aug 15. http://www.engadget.com/2012/06/28/adobe-confirms-it-wont-support-flash-on-android-4-1/
So im guessing I have it on my phone because it was put on before the update? I'm still an Android noob but learning. Lol

yup i pm you , you should be good now.
Could this possibly be Jellybean? I'd prefer to use wi-fi to download it, just curious as to whether or not anyone else has an idea..
No update and probably it will be on Sam mobile by now, I didn't see it earlier so I doubt is jellybean

Before this gets way out of hand, what are you running now? ROM/Kernel (version numbers)
I just checked mine and I got nothing.
I have a feeling what the OP hasnt said yet is that he just bought the phone and is getting LH2 now while everyone else got it 5 weeks ago.

I've had the phone since release. I reverted back to stock (VALEM) about two weeks ago and this morning I received a notice for the update. I went home just now to check it out and yeah, it was (VALH2). I just found that odd that it took that long to get a notice. Apologies. I wasn't trying to stir anything up.
Could be an update to fix the reset hack problem

That is patched in LH2 afaik.
I got my GS3 On ATT from a preorder and i've never once recieved an OTA, im completely stock never rooted or used any custom roms before. When i go to settings>about device>software update, i get Communication failed, the server is currently unavailable your device will automatically check for an update in 48 hours.
I did some googling and found a guy back in july that had the same issue and ATT replaced his phone.
Never had a single issue with my phone before. Is the phone defective because of this? Is there a quick fix?
Honestly don't know.. I have a friend at work that is experiencing the same issue .. my phone received all updates with no problems.
They obtained there phone from BestBuy .. told her to take the phone back to them and show them what going on. This was this past Friday .. so Monday (tomorrow), I should know what BestBuy did for her.
Mine always says that too

Why not just root? Then you can apply the update yourself.

have you tried kies?
Updates are based on priority of the IMEI. So this week can't get update but next week you can. It's how they (att) stop the download from being congested.

The update isn't available through kies, I'm thinking about rooting but i might as well just wait for the 4.1 update.

This I don't believe one bit .. the girl that I was talking about in my previous post .. she was still on I747UCALEM .. she got hers the day they were released .. never received the update to I747UCALG1 or the newest one I747UCALH9.
My Garnet Red version came with I747UCALG1 already installed (box has sticker on it stating "updated") .. and I received the LH9 the same day it was released OTA.
The fact that her phone is MISSING not 1 update .. but 2 .. tells me there is a problem with the phone, not AT&T sending out OTA's by IMEI priority.

So this is extremely weird. About a week ago i flashed the most recent miui.us from rom manager. last night i went to sleep with it on charge and when i woke up and pressed the power button to see the time.... the camera flashed but the screen didnt come on
Ive pulled the batter and tried to turn it on: same thing
ive tried to boot into recovery: same thing
ive tried to use the gnex toolkit 10.1: its not recognized
so what im trying to figure out, because ive looked all through the toolkit... is there a way to flash an unresponsive gnex (or) have any of you guys heard of this issue before

This is a very strange issue.
Have you tried booting the phone into download (Odin) mode?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2
did someone or you install an anti theft app onto your device? one that takes pictures of the thief if they try using the device..
I feel like I have tried everything but the odin program, my does absolutely nothing besides flash no matter what button combination I try.
and no I have not installed that app... i actually wasnt aware that it existed!
I just really do NOT want to send it to Samsung. This was actually a warranty replacement I received about a month ago. I flashed MIUI the day i got it and it was acting fine the whole time until I woke up and it was doing this
So ODIN it, you need ODIN for your PC and the recovery files for your GalNex. That should fix you right up, I wouldn't want to send it to Samsung either, they'd try to charge you regardless of warranty.
