[Q] Latest Incremental Update LI3 - Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III

Rooted, Stock, LG8
Started getting OTA notifications this morning. Rebooted into recovery and the notifications went away. Still on LG8. Am I missing anything substantial on LI3? Should I just wait for the official JB update? Thanks in advance.

Official JB release has yet to be officially announced with a date. So, I suggest you go ahead and update. At least you'll stop getting the notifications if you do.

Thanks for the reply, Naddict. Couple of questions:
-In order to update to LI3, is it as simple as going through the "System Update" utility in the settings?
-Is it safe to assume that once I update to LI3, I'll lose root?
-If so, how do I go about gaining root again? (It's been a while since I first rooted, so I'm unsure of the methods.)

yes you must be stock and have stock revocery and it will update no problem and yes you will lose root unless you use app like ota rootkeeper or just re root like you did the first time look at qbking77 video

Your thread is relevant to my question, so I'm hoping someone can help me, as well.
I'm new to android, and I've found that every time there is an OTA update, I cannot find ANY information on it. I received a notification to update today, as well, yet it doesn't tell me what changes will be made or what is being updated. Is this normal for android? I'm not exactly sure where to look for this information, since hitting "more info" tells me nothing.
Not trying to invade on your post, but I'm thinking you might know the answer to this.
Thanks!

OTA's are manufacturer specific. Sprint does provide information as to what the updates do for you. Just use the Internet machine and go to Sprint's website...

Hi Naddict. Thanks for humoring my "Hi. I'm super new and have stupid questions" status.
My "internet machine" (awesome) must be limited to banning all updated information. On the sprint blog for S3 updates the latest one is from 9/19 and I don't see any relevant information regarding an update from today. That's where my confusion lies.
My main issue is that I don't even know what to search for, as I don't receive any information regarding the update number/title/etc.
A popup just asking me to install a "system update" doesn't really do much for me. I'll keep looking. :good:
Take care,
Mike

Thank you very much. I saw the Samsung Galaxy SIII Software Updates post on the Sprint website but it shows a release date of 9/19, which was causing my confusion. I was looking for something from today specifically since this is the first time I had an update popup.
Have a good one.

No worries! I didn't take it as an insult. It's good to have people that joke around Nice to meet ya.

Well now I'm just lost.
I used Mobile ODIN to flash a stock recovery, then I tried to flash an LG8-L13 .zip I found on another forum. I got an installation error. I went back to CWM and tried the flash the update, same error. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. Is there a file, or at least a link to an update .zip that works in CWM?
Edit: Just found and flashed two files through CWM. So far so good.
Here's the Link for the update:

Here's the Link for the modem:

I'm not sure why they're separate, but it's working for me.

[Q] new ota?

Hi,
i just had a new ota from acer build: acer_a100_2.007.04
is there any changelog? or just an old OTA who just arrive to me? ^^

In fact i received 2 ota, first 233MO and the second 3Mo
We poor people here in Canada,,,we dont get any updates......I asked acer support Canada and about update release region schedule,and was told that it is set in Taiwan,,and that they have no idea ,who gets what when .
Wonder how this will effect rooted users?

Well there was a scheduled ICS update planned for shortly after Xmas. Could this be it? Have either of the two updates been flashed to the tab? I'm curious about the
3mo update.

I wonder if its the same exact 3.2.1 one i posted in the ROM section.
As I posted in another thread,when I was corresponding with acer support they told me that Canada was scheduled for the 3.21 update in late December or early January
So it is logical to assume that IF the ICS update comes in january ,,(and remember the only confirmation that there will be one,was from an acer rep in Poland.),that it will likely not come to regions such as Canada till april/may if ever
.
Please check "/cache/fota_dn/" before update!
check for what?? I dont seem to have a fota_dn folder anyway

That was meant for anyone whose receiving the OTA prompt. The OTA package is cached in that certain location before ur tab initializes the update, because once the update is applied, that package is deleted from that directory.
So....extract and copy the update before ur tab uses it, and then upload for everyone else to enjoy
Atleast, that's how I took it

I just got TWO updates here in Québec - 2.007.01 and 2.007.04.
At least the headphone/speaker bug is fixed.
Is the complete list of new features/fixes available somewhere?

3.2.1 seemed to fix the headphone bug, even the "unofficial" version from xda fixed it.
Good question, I am wondering as well.
Got the two updates in Ontario as well once I went back to 3.2.
Also in the Netherlands: at jan 2 installed 2.007.01 and 2.007.04.
The only difference I noticed is the market page layout; for me the old version was fine.

Is it VZW/Sprint? If so, it might be months until you get it.. that is if they approve of the update anyways. GSM you will get it mid july.. rooted.. you have it right now.

How can I check it? I haven't got even to 4.0.4 so it makes sense for me that I wont be updated..
If I root my phone, will my sms(which arent sycronised) deleted?and what about the rest of my information on the phone? can it damage my phone?
Rooting and flashing ROM's can damage your handset if you don't know what you're doing. Most flashing errors can be erectified though.
Where are you located in the world?
Verizon and Sprint are US based LTE handsets, they arent sold outside the states since they cant work on other LTE networks. Take a picture of your "About phone" page (screenshots can be taken with pressing "Volume down + Power" simultaniously.
Im from Israel.. so its not Verizon probably..

Have you tried to clear Google framework data and the try to check for updates again?
Swiftkey'ed on my CM9 Galaxy Nexus
I understand your confusion. A Nexus phone should get the update as soon as possible.
I just updated my phone yesterday, thanks to efrant how to guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1419170&highlight=yakjuzs
the problem is so many builds, I learned that yakju build is directly supported by google. However, today I learned that the build takju got the Jellybean update. Question what about the rest, yakjuux, yakjuzs, yakjujp.....etc.? I don't know, only android team knows the update process, so I hope they post something about that in google+, but I doubt that.
We have to wait, either get it OTA(which my never happen) or flash the update manually as soon google post the update URL's specified for your phone build.
If you have quadrant standard installed you can see your build under system information.

No need to unroot, just wait for the rooted version of the ROM and flash that The rooted version of stock ROM is usually out the same day or a few days after the official realease.
If you update to L710VPLI3 using a rooted ROM do you also need to separately update the radios. Always been a bit confused with radios vs. software ROM. Does enhance LTE (which I use daily) come from software update or radio update.

You usually have to flash modems (aka radios) separatly, depends on the dev. Well, only saw one dev include it but he created a separate tool to flash modems that is linked below.
Seems that modems were not updated in this release and the LTE optimization is more a software fix. You find the latest modems here and here is the easiest way to flash without Odin.

So I gather that if I just flash any ROM that is based on new LI3 then I will have the upgrade enhancement regarding LTE. Great. I hate having to unroot or reflash stock recovery to take OTA. Thanks.

I don't see that there's even an update.zip that's been released. I wouldn't jump to conclusions just yet, might still be a modem update.

get ready to have all the bloatware re installed.
my gf has the epic 4g touch. it was stock rooted and the very last update a few days ago re installed all bloatware and went further ahead by disabling the option to disable some of the apps that previously could be uninstalled through application manager. also it took away root so i had to stock re root her phone.
if updates were just performance enhancements i would welcome them but, why do carriers always insist on pushing their crap into our phones??

[OTA Update] Touchwiz 4.3 T-Mobile NOW available! MJC.

So my mother's non-rooted stock UVDMD5 S3 was sitting there and mobile background said update checker used 3 kb, so I checked the update checker and a 527.00 MB file started downloading. Just a heads up, is it the new download?
Edit 1 : Confirmed, this is Android 4.3 official.

Confirmed. Kernel version 3.0.31-1962493, Produced October 31.

Edit 2 : @DocHoliday77 has confirmed this actual OTA is ONLY for the SGH-T999..if you don't have one (you won't get the OTA) but DO NOT FLASH OR ATTEMPT TO FLASH ANY ODIN FILES!
Edit 3 : This has KNOX. Proceed at caution.
Edit 4 : have you ever been to jail? No? Me either. But if I had to picture it this update is much like it. Still to Docs leak thread or AOSP but don't touch this with a fine toothcomb if you want to root and later downgrade.

One way to find out, I suppose. I'm not currently rooted, the phone's bone-stock. Saw the download and immediately came here to see what was going on. Under 30 megs remaining.
check samfirmware...theres an update with over 800 mb
I guess that's a confirmation. Any issues? The AT&T version was riddled with problems.
Edit- Confirmed. Kernel version 3.0.31-1962493, Produced October 31.
According to Kies the update is MJC so its probably the same or similar to leak version DOC post .

anyone have any issues with the update? I saw on engadget that some other carriers pulled the update due to problems
Can someone upload a rooted Odin package, please!
If possible, if not without root.
Thanks

Ok, something important to be aware of. From piecing information together from users around these and other forums, it appears just about everyone who had problems with the 4.3 update had updated via OTA. So if you choose to update this way, please let us know how things go. But if you do experience problems, DONT PANIC, Grab Your Towel, and start downloading the Odin flashable full firmware update.
This of course will include the T-Mobile kernel. I am 90% certain that the reason WiFi did not work with the leaked kernel is because we did not flash the full firmware update. I believe the WiFi modules needed to be built into the bootloader (likely the aboot partition to be exact). This is what I was attempting to confirm when I bricked my phone. So by flashing the full firmware/OTA update, you should have a fully working build, including WiFi if I am correct.
Aside from this, I would suggest reading through some of my posts in the leaked Rom threads. This is the same build that was leaked to us a week or so ago. Do let me know how things are going, I wish I could join you guys in the discovery phase of this "official" version, but I seriously doubt that other than the kernel working, and Knox likely being left out, it will be any different from what we have been using.
I do not see any reason you should not be able to root, but I will get an insecure kernel posted asap. As soon as my download finishes. In the meantime, if anyone wants the insecure kernel from the leaked build, it should be exactly the same one. Download here:
UVUEMJC_Insecure_kernel.zip
Hope everything goes well, and I am still here to help!

a root66 version will be coming soon. These have always been released within a day of us getting a new official release. Please be patient though, as I don't think mrRobinson has the S3 anymore. I will send him the download link as soon as I have it posted on my AFH account.
If he cannot get to it, i will do my best to get you guys a root66 build asap. But again, please be patient.

You know, I have to be honest....I was hoping to be wrong about the latest leak becoming our official build! Was hoping they would update one more test build first, then we would have had another kernel/modem/build......oh well! I must say that I am quite surprised they went through with our release so quickly!
Someone must be watching us......
Thanks Doc, I'm in no rush.
Thanks for all your help, great appreciated.

oh, one more thing. if updating via ota, try Voodoo OTA Roitkeeper from the store. its worked in the past to preserve root.
and can someone pull the ota before applying it, and upload it for me please?
look in /data/fota, /data/temp, /cache/fota
its there somewhere, just cant remember for certain.

Where can you get an Odin package without root? My doesn't care about root but would still like an solid update incase the ota has bugs

Yup, shows for me too, 1161MB update.
Hmm, decision time. A root for the current setup does seem like it's within reach...
Turns out this should probably be merged with the general lollipop thread though, because others are posting their updates there.
Well cool nice to kno we got the update... but I'm waiting... seems we r close to root on 4.4.4 plus b4 I update I want to kno if we r able to downgrade back down to 4.4.4 with Odin if we wanted ? And also I would like to kno the issues?

Can you share a screenshot? Whether it's of update going on or after it, of the about phone screen?
Would if I could. It was like almost an hour before my update actually started downloading and I'm just now on 400mb of 1.3ish gb.
Lollipop?
Can anyone confirm if this is the Lollipop update? I started the download too but it is going very slow.

How are you checking how much of the download you have?
If it says "Processing" its not started yet. Once the download begins you can see the progress.

It says "Downloading software update, Please do,.." in my notifications area....I tap it and nothing. If I go to "Check for Updates" in the settings and tap it it just takes me back to the "About Device" screen.
See this thread

My phone is downloading the update as we speak. ~1100MB
Confirmed
Downloading with 200mb/1160mb progress.
If you all don't see the reply button on Tapatalk latest version 4.12.0 Uninstall then install again and it fixes issues.

Would they need root to pull the ota or can it be done through kies? I don't think att note 4 has root
