How to Determine update contents - Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III

Can anyone tell me how to determine the contents of updates WITHOUT accepting them? I received one yesterday and it's only 37.9 mb. So I'm pretty sure it isn't JB, but I want to know what it is. Thanks.

Only thing that I can think of would be the update to gimp the search all function.

Yeah, I already have that one.

what are you running right now. LG2 OR LG8?

LG2 I bought it two weeks ago. When I do a search it only searches the web, not phone. So I assume it's been updated. Am I wrong?

The latest update, which has been pushing out for about three weeks now, is LG8.

Yep, just the LG8 update. Chances are the phone has been sitting on a self or being shipped from point A to B and never got turned on or activated to get the update.

Thanks. I would like to know if there is way to view these updates contents without installing, for future use. Anyone?

You could download the zip file separately on a PC and explore it. The update zip file has been available for a while. See this thread.

That's what I was thinking. I'll read up and see how to get it off the phone and to the pc. I don't want to install the update until I know what it does, if it does anything I want or need or does it remove things I like(universal search). Thanks again for the quick replies.

Could be a patch to get us up to 4.3 speed. Definitely advised to not take it.

It downloaded to my daughter's phone and it keeps popping up asking to upgrade. Anyone know where the file is located so I can just delete it? Or will flashing a newer rom eliminate it?

Flashing another ROM with built in OTA blocker should work or any ROM but you may get prompted repeatedly if it doesnt have OTAs blocked.

Should be in /cache/ somewhere. I'd move it to sd card so you can upload and help the developers out.

When she gets home I'll see if I can track it down.
I got notified for the update after it automatically downloaded at 11:38AM CST. It downloaded into /cache/fumo/ as OTAPkg.zip, just like the last update.
I have uploaded the file here for whomever would like to take it apart.
I hit check new, and it downloaded it but then nothing happened and it didn't give me the option to apply it. Clicking check new now does nothing. Weird.
EDIT: never mind, it prompted me. I'm installing it now (I don't care about root)

I got it and the only difference I see is the build number. Same Android and sense version. I don't see anything new...
Maybe it's prep for 4.3.

Looks to be an attempt at fixing the camera at night time/low light and a microphone fix of some type.
There's also a new radio and kernel...
New radio !! Can't wait to flash the radio

I am wondering if there is any reason not to go back to stock and take the ota. From what i heard once you are s-off you can always re-root , and the chances of vzw pushing s-on and breaking dev phones are slim to none
anyone?

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:

I can update my thread on droidrzr now. Thanks for checking that. No sign of the RAZR HD FXZ yet huh?
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.
That is all I can tell you...manna from heaven...I wouldn't *****!

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!

Hell yea! Completely appreciated. This update has been a nightmare given the multiple OTA updates depending on previous version. The FXZ makes all that go away.

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.

ZVD starts rolling out today

It is the knock code update
Edit: I should probably include a link..
http://www.androidpolice.com/2014/0...h-support-for-lgs-knock-code-security-system/
Got the update an hour ago. Im on zvc stock rooted so ill have to wait for the awesome devs to post it here.
awwwww yeaaaaaaaaaaaa finally we need this thanks for the info
And I'm assuming there's no wifi calling since it's not even mentioned?
Anyone captured the OTA update?
Has anyone released the ZVD radio yet?
I'm just waiting for someone to take the OTA and do a ROOTED BACKUP, and then put it on XDA....!
I'M NOT TRYING TO LOSE "ROOT" FOR KNOCK CODE.

I'd be happy to. My device shows the update is downloaded and waiting for install.
Point me in the right direction and I'll post it up.
you can just download it and dont reboot, should be in the cache folder in root.
The software update, which brings it up to Sprint’s version ZVD, also includes a new icon for HD Voice (something that’s being added to other devices as well), a patch for Google, and an updated email signature. Owners will also see improvements for group messaging.

From my phone, without using a PC, how do I get it from that folder to Dropbox or another file sharing Avenue?
use a root explorer to copy it to an sdcard then use dropbox app to upload it there.
I accepted the zvd update about an hour ago and lost root.
ioroot25 works with the zvd update.
I like how there is no WiFi calling.... especially with the crappy network and occasional issues with the Airave, you would think they would enable it for the G2 already, but no.:crying:

Have you found the firmware for this device or has it still not been posted yet? Also, where can I look for it at? I'm assuming it is a website that has all of the firmwares listed for every Samsung device. Unfortunately, i cant remember the name at the moment and Ill kick myself when you say it or if someone else posts it, for not remembering something so often i used to go to. However, I was in the hospital for a couple months for M.R.S.A. and that sucked. Im finally out of there but 2 months out of the loop with this field is like several years missing information in the technology world! So, what site was this posted on again?

so, does this mean that since this hasn't even been posted yet anywhere, completed, or done yet that considering this is the first step to development and achieving root, im also guessing people need this file to even start to begin making/developing the ROMs right? which probably means then there isnt/arent any even available as of yet and/or let alone a stock Rom/Custom ROMs for this particular device either is there? yes? no? if the answer is yes, then awsome cool where can i find any of them! if the answer is no, there arent any stock or custom ROMs available yet then my response is BoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooFREAAAAKKKKKIN Hisssssssssssssss 2 thisss maaaaaaaan!

Is there anyway i can do it on my own? does someone have directions or a link to manually rooting IE the first way where we make the ADB command lines then type the next command to manually root the old fashioned way or what?! bc ill do it on my own if i have to!!!!! someone lead the way to the right direction(s) and im on it! might take some time but thats how i rooted my first smart phone the HTC EVO supersonic 31600. i know we use odin for samsung but what are the steps to get this ball moving?! if no one else is going to do it id like to try at least. anyone send me a link pls ? where do i start?

Right here. samsung-updates.com/device/?id=SM-T807P now can you upload the latest one to mega upload or mediafire? Then I can perhaps extract whats needed but still may take a while as beans or chainfire hasnt been porting cfautoroot to some devices. I could try to preroot it, but it may not work.
Root for SM-T807P
I got tired of waiting around for CF-Auto-Root to come out with a package so I made my own. It's all based off the CF-Auto-Root that I modified using another device that uses the same chip as the T807P.
I am in the process of testing it. So far I've come up with one bug which causes the DHCP wifi loop, but it was an easy fix. Once you have root access just change the permissions on the /system/etc/dhcpcd/dhcpcd-run-hooks file to "execute" by "user" "group" and "others" by using a root file explorer. It fixes the "obtaining ip address loop" for wifi.
All the standard legal stuff like - I am not responsible if you brick your device or if the root doesn't work.
Here is the link to the file I used with Odin to flash the CF-Auto-Root for my T807P.

How did you modify the stuff/exactly what did you do in cfautoroot? I tried myself but didn't know what else to do. I would love to learn! (I dont own a 807p so but I have always wondered how) Thanks!

*Disregard* Got my 4.6.3 (620) 3 months later LOL

Update:
It was 4.6.3 - 620, I just never got it 3 months ago LOL
Hey guys,
I'm just getting prompted to install an update on my phone but it doesn't says which version, I'm assuming it is 4.6.4 because it says it will reboot to install update (and I'm on 4.6.3), if it were an apk update it wouldn't even prompt me..
Question, how do I pull the update file before updating? Does anyone received this update too? Any changes?
Bump
I doubt it will be 4.6.4 as that build was updated to 4.6.5 on AT&T so why would they give it to us?
I just tried to update and didn't get anything, take a leap of faith...update and let us know what you get !

Use any (root) file explorer and check the internal storage root folder, if it's not there, check the download folder, or let the file explorer search for big files on that partition.
I guess more people will report back soon, since they just started rolling out the update.
Details of the changes are not known yet, I assume it will include most of the "improvements" that we saw on the 4.6.5 AT&T variant.

He said, he assumes it's 4.6.4. Don't post misleading infos if you don't know about the details of software versioning on different variants of Fire OS.
Alright, alright, alright... I was focusing too much on the AT&T remark and I thought: here we go again with someone confusing builds / variants but I didn't mean it in a condescending way... *****. :laugh:

I didn't post saying yeah they are releasing this or that , I was questioning his assumption nothing more.
I've been in the forum world "cars mainly" for sometime so I wouldn't confirm on anything unless I know it for sure
Ok so it was not 4.6.4
I'm trying to upload a picture but don't know of a good service, imageshack seems not working for me.
Previous OS was: 4.6.3 (463001420)
New OS is: 4.6.3 (463001620) *rootable, strapable, flashable
So it upgraded inside my pocket, so it is unclear to me if it rebooted or not, but I can tell it was a huge file since it took a couple minutes.
There is also a bunch of APK updates waiting, but that I don't care. No visible changes, probably under the hood tricks to further lock this device.

Oh boy, it never gets boring around here. The ...620 version was back from August (~ 22nd, I believe), it contained the 2nd round of stagefright patches. Maybe change the thread title to avoid annoyed users. ^^

Don't worry, no big deal but still funny. ^^ Just go back to the first post in this thread and click "edit", then you can also change the title again.
LOL
Funny thing is that I checked my phone and I still am running 1420 as well, when I check it says I am up to date. Any reason its not detecting I need an update?
