As of right now T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S3 known as SGH-T999UVLEM is upgrading to a newer Version which is SGH-T999UVLH2
I don't think the over the air (OTA) mode is working right now because I did many tries and it keep saying device up to date so if you want to try it us KIES. if you version of KIES is not up to date you will have to update it first then you will be able to upgrade the phone.
it will take about 10 to 15 minutes of your time and it will depend on your connection.
everything like root will be gone after the update. :victory:
ok after you update, you will be able to go back and use the same method you use to to root the older version and install a different boot.
mine is working fine I don't find any problem yet.

Anyone know what this update is for?
So I guess posting in one wrong section wasn't enough right? Stop trolling and keep this where it belongs in the general section.

this is not any good for us that are rooted and running a customer recovery.
Available for download form here, no Kies necessary.

Just reflash the custom recovery in Odin and flash the root file. Unless you mean not good for those that are running custom ROMs then that's a different story.
do the developers here give the okay to update to this, for those of us who are fully stock and not rooted? will we be able to get root easily still(with the same methods), even after this update?
Good question. I second that.

yes the same method you use to root and install the custom recovery will work with no problem. I am update and back to root

I've done this and after updating to SGH-T999UVLH2 Android File Transfer has stopped working.
KIES still continues to work, however.

That's the Windows 98 diagnostic approach "re-install the OS and see if that fixes it"
Are you saying it works fine for you?
I'm just curious... what are the improvements? I haven't seen that question yet
I hear you, no one is reporting anything about the update and I'm wondering if it's even worth doing. I wouldn't mind updating but sometimes you don't get the results and blind updates makes me wonder anyways.
Just going from memory so may leave something out. Its been mentioned but its scattered due to so many threads about the update.
New kernel, new radio (some report grand improvements), camera updated and has new features, reportedly better stability and battery, brightness slider added to notification window.,....ugh, damn now I'm blanking out on this! I know there's more, just escaping me at the moment. Ill post more when I think of it.

FWIW, the Kies update isn't working with Win 8.
it'll install, but will close when you try to run it.
Edit: sorry I got it updated but I'm still trying to get root now and using the tool kit is out dated and I can't seem to find info for it, anyone have a way to root after latest update.
Edit 2, all set. I even foubd a few things I havent seen posted yet. We'll see if it pans out but im good.

The biggest news is the LTE stuff. According to analysis at S4GRU, one problem with Sprint's initial rollout of LTE is that the handsets have been programmed to downshift from LTE to EVDO at too high a level of LTE signal strength. Hopefully, this is a fix for that.
This update news really belongs in the XDA Sprint subforum forum, but now that it has been separated out I can't find it.

No go. It boots into CWM, then it fails with a signature validation error.
Gotta wait until I am near the laptop when the phone has a decent charge.
Then flash original non rooted rom, apply firmware, then re root the phone.

If you go to the dev section there are a few post showing how to upgrade with root. All I've had to do in the past was:
Madhouze's Instructions: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1747560
copy the file from it's directory to my SD Card (file is in /cache)
boot into CWM
Install ZIP from SDCard
choose zip from SDCard
choose the update.zip file you copied
Install ZIP from SDCard
choose zip from SDCard
select the .zip to add the custom recovery
Install ZIP from SDCard
choose zip from SDCard
select the zip from recovery file
Reboot and enjoy~!
Note: I got these instruction from madhouze's post in the dev section. I did not come up with them, only passing it along for other people to have.
EDIT: Confirmed the method that madhouze posted works. One note though update the SU binary if you are having problems with the root.

Well there are great apps out there, I use Voodoo OTA. And it creates a backup of your root, then you have the option to do a temp unroot so when you are doing the update OTA (only works for OTA updates), the update won't detect that your device is rooted and after upgrade complete, open up Voodoo OTA, click Restore Root and voilà!
This should work all of the time, but I haven't tested it in a real scenario yet.
Let me know what happens!

Hi!
I was talking about official updates only with the OTA(over-the-air/wirelessly). So if you're in USA/CAN you'll have to wait for the JB update to come over here first then get pushed out to devices, then before update sue the app.
Michael
This is awesome news. Quick question though, since I'm new to the SGSIII. If I "disabled" some apps under the application manager, can I still install the OTA when it comes around? I'm not rooted or anything, I just got the phone a couple days ago and don't feel like voiding my warranty quite yet

You dont need to disable anything. You are on stock - so wait until the OTA is released. It will inform you, and just let it download and install.

I think he was asking if he has some apps disabled, vs rooting to remove them, if it'll be an issue to install OTA. I have all the Rogers apps disabled, since I'm not using the Rogers network. I don't see any issue with the OTA working, since no system files were changed, you're just telling them to not run. Worst case, just re-enable them when you know the OTA is out, do the update and disable the apps again. That's my plan!
Just tried to update with the "check for updates" : option under settings and it didn't work. My phone is rooted, and so when it rebooted (it props for reboot and install) it went into CW and aborted install. Is there a way around this?

I searched and couldn't find an answer, maybe I'm just a bad searcher. I'm using the rt66 root injected stock rom and this morning I checked "software update" under "about phone" and it started downloading a 330+ mb file. I'm assuming this is the JB update that was just released, will it install correctly or should I stop the download? I don't want to brick my phone and I can wait until I'm home to update. Thanks.

IIRC I tried the same thing, it just gave me an error message, didn't actually update anything. You can try of course, I don't think it'll work. Also, if you're already root, you should probably install CWMRecovery or TWRP Recovery and make a backup of your phone, just so you can feel safe about it.
I would make a backup, go ahead and try the update. It'll probably fail and not harm your phone, or update properly. Good luck, and post back with results if you can, I'd like to know what happens
Thanks for the reply. I already have twrp and a nandroid backup. I think I'll wait until I get home to try and apply the update.
Use voodoo ota rootkeeper.
Go to my firmware/ota thread for instructions. Stickied in development.

Just to let you know for when you get home from work, your update will fail. You're going to need to have Stock Recovery. There is a flashable floating around here somewhere.
The OTA will check for /system integrity. Meaning that it will look for all the /system/apps that are supposed to be there (meaning if you've deleted any bloat and not just froze it-fail), stock recovery, and NO ROOT (hence the OTA Rootkeeper). If any 1 of those are not as they should be, the OTA will fail.
Thanks for the reply again. So the easiest thing for me to do is first install root keeper and then find and flash the stock recovery. The only thing I've done is flash the root66 and then installed twrp, I haven't frozen any apps or deleted anything.

I've been told that its fine too do it, youll just lose root access, but mine had failed when I was rooted, so I just odined back to stock. Also, its recommended that you do a factory reset after the update. Had problems with Wifi calling myself, before I performed a Factory Reset. The root66 file for JB should be up soon. Its says uploading

If you update via Kies and then do a factory reset, you should get what you're looking for.
Completely stock, no root.

I agree, Kies does suck, but it's the only way I've found to update and keep the ROM completely stock if the OTA fails. It updates via download mode, so it shouldn't matter if you're rooted, or even if you have a custom recovery.
I tried updating to JB using the OTA this morning, and it failed, but Kies worked fine.
Thsts whst the full fw Im hosting is for. You can flash it via odin if the ota fails. Just a better way imo. Glad you got it regardless though!

Once the firmware is installed, users will have the ability to offload their app installs to the SD card. That's especially important for 16GB device owners who were upset to find that they had just 9.15GB of usable space on the device's storage. Moving apps to the SD card can save some of the needed space. Samsung has also found a way to squeeze another 0.08GB of space on the device's drive, according to SamMobile, which was first to report on the news.
In addition to handling the storage issue, the software update for the Galaxy S4 includes a host of fixes and improvements, including the ability to record HDR video and a fix for the purple effect users were seeing when scrolling through pages.

Nah, T-mobile DID send me the update, the very day i purchased my phone, like May 7th or 8th, I had the incremental update that i noticed changed my transparent notification bar to like charcoal black. I had noted the dates as April 26 before the update, and May 6-7 on the newer update.
It's just I decided to try CF Auto-Root, once i realized i just wanted things back to the way i had it, yes, I BOUGHT triangle away, ran the reset flash counter, saw my status on rom read custom, so i flashed the official stock tar by odin and now it says i'm on official.
Issue now is, although my counter is at 0, and the status says official, won't ota to may 7th. I will try Samsung Kies though.
Edit: Even Samsung Kies Reports i'm up to date, which, i suppose I am for the most part, but still not up to date with the incremental May 7th release.

Which official tar did you Odin? If it was the MDL build that is the may 7 update so that's why your phone would say up to date.
woops.

(just for reference to everyone else, i mean i odin'd this:

See what I was looking at thinking I was behind was the kernel version..
I got so used to seeing the kernel get updated whenever a new update rolls out on my old phone that I had no idea the may 7th update didn't bring a newer kernel.
Yes. I have MDL on baseband/modem and on the build number. Thing that was throwing me off was paying attention to the kernel version as Friday, April 26, also, i could of sworn the homescreen status bar isn't supposed to be transparent, but mine is, looking back at how it wasn't transparent before last time i was on the may 7th build, now that it's transparent on some things, i just got really confused. might of been the old background i had before, seeing to it that it's clear on homescreen now, and charcoal black when i open settings.
What I did to get an I9505 Odin build on my M919 was just flash the firmware, wait for it to fail at modem, then odin flash the UVUAMDL modem. Reboot and everything is perfect (except the Samsung Knox modified notification, of course).
