[Q] Rom update push - Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Just got a new Rom update pushed by Samsung. Updated me to XXALJ3.
I know that most likely there were no Release Notes available from Sammy, but wanted to check just in case if anyone is aware of what changed or fixed compare to the XXALJ1?
Thanks,

You should, but only if the final isn't the same as the leaked one. You can also flash the final build once its released, manually.
You could just wait 1 day, too. I know it's killing you to get your hands on Froyo (it's killing me) but patience is a virtue. To be honest, I don't think it would have been as bad if Sprint didn't say we could initiate the update by downloading and installing it manually earlier. People have been hitting the "Check Now" button since last Friday (myself included). Why say that at all if you're not going to allow it?
BTW - your post title is very misleading... may want to change it to a question of some sort instead of statement implying what it isn't.
I highly doubt Sprint wouldn't allow the people that updated early to update again. That would be absolutely ridiculous. Either wait for the next update or for a root method on your current version.

[Q] OTA Update ota_bravo_htc_eu_2.10.405.2-2.09.405.8_release567cypyi0feo4th5.zip

I'm running (at the moment) a copy of Pinky's ROM on a rooted Desire. So I was quite surprised when I got notified this update was available for download:
ota_bravo_htc_eu_2.10.405.2-2.09.405.8_release567cypyi0feo4th5.zip 25MB
Anyone know anything about it? And no, I wasn't stupid enough to download and install an unknown update from HTC onto a rooted and non-standard Desire. The Least that would likely happen is having to reinstall my OS; the worst is a locked and bricked unusable device.
It's too small for a new version of the official HTC set up - but it might be a substantial update...
So, anyone else got this? Know anything about it? Too new for google...
- Update : Android OS update patch
- Enhanced multi inbox Gmail support
- Improved RUS keyboard layout
It can't be applied to a custom ROM, it's been said a number of times

You are using an illegal copy of our ROM, Venom is pissed!!

or at least it seems like it.
i downloaded the port over version the other day before all the "close this thread now" stuff. And i have loved it so far.
But, i just got a notification on my phone that said there was an update available, out of curiousity as to it being verizon or venom, i clicked download and it said the following.
"You using illegal copy of our ROM, to fix it apply update" and so forth and so on.
My question is the Venom rom now ready and they are just sending out an update to get up to their specs or is this update going to kill my phone. I have no problem taking this rom off and putting something on if this update was designed to kill the old version, just want to get some answers before i go in any directs.
was just struck off guard today with this development...
thanks,......

i don't think anybody would side with venom if they released an update that killed somebody's phone over a ported rom.

i agree, i was just trying to find out if anyone else had seen this and did the update to see what gives.
UPDATE: i tried to install the update and it fails every single time. not sure what it is supposed to do, but it fails. just thought i would shoot the update to everyone. i am fairly certain that i am not the only one.
thanks,
see if the ROM that we are using was ported from got an update.. since it's a port, it's likely the update is for sprint...
thought that is what it might be, but the "illegal" ROM part made me wonder a bit more than usual..

turge had asked members of the verizon one community to supply fixes to enable verizon to work properly with the intl venom rom
this wasnt meant to have people fix up the rom for verizon and release it.....when its meant to be released to the public, it will be
our server cant distinguish between actual kang roms (ie chinese ones which are so prevalent) and ports that are being worked on....my advice is to not use a venom rom on your verizon one until turge or jan release it via an official thread
it wouldnt be an update from verizon as its not a verizon based rom with verizon ota files in it

[Q] System Update - 12/19/14 - 3.31.654.2?

Anyone get the M8 system update on 12/19?
HTC lists it as an bug fix update - version 3.31.651.2
Now today (12/22), I got an update that lists it as bug fixes also with a version of 3.31.654.2
I was wondering what it's fixing as I can't find any changelog.
I am using the Sprint M8 H&K model.

I got the 651 version today, but I have the regular M8, not the HK version. I'm curious what this does as well. I wasn't able to get the previous update to 4.4.4, making me think it had been pulled. Would love to see what bug fixes they're referring to.

What I found interesting is, that they only way I found the update was selecting "check for updates" in my settings...
I never got a notification for it....
I did get the 4.4.4 though weeks ago.....
Seems HTC wants to keep what ever they are trying to fix under wraps, whose back are they watching google's or their own...
naturally I would think their own...!
Is this to do with the latest fiasco we faced with the HTC service packs (I still haven't installed the new one which has been released after the December 11th release!!!)

T989uvoh1 - update

T989UVOH1 - Beginning October 5,2015 the Samsung Galaxy S II will have a software update to Android version* 4.1.2/ Software T989UVOH1 via OTA or Samsung Kies.* This update provides the Stagefright fix.
My phone wanted to update last night. did anyone take the update ? did it lose root ? what happened when it updated.
Right now i'm backing up my stuff and pushing all my contacts to google and everything before hand.
If you do not know what stagefright is then read :
http://www.xda-developers.com/stagefright-explained-the-exploit-that-changed-android/
http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software-hacking/fix-stagefright-patched-t3173500
- I like the rom i'm on and really dont want to go updating if it breaks my root and everything on my phone.
I found out that i would mostly need to update so im updating now to a new rom SLIMLP
Well I did a little flashing this weekend to see what this update really did. I will say it did nothing. The stagefright v1 and v2 are still active.
The rom is fully bloated to hell. I jumped off the rom after that. Do not update to this build from t-mobile it does nothing.
I wonder if someone can upload the new radio that comes with it.
