[AT&T] New system update awaits 8/3/2012

Just got a notification on my S3 about a system update being available. Doesn't give much detail other than that. Is this the 4.0.4 update that some uses have received? Anyone else get this message today?

I got it this morning as well. Anyone know what it's for?

What software version are you running now? LG1 is the remove search update. If your running lg1 and have an update, then it's new.

I747ucalem is my version.
Doesn't matter though because I have CWM installed so the update fails.

You need to be on stock to update stock firmware, unless you install root keeper first

New OTA ROM - T999UVDLJC

Woke up in middle of the night, saw this waiting for me. Had synced via Kies about 6 hours earlier and it wasn't there. Haven't noticed any differences in very brief use, and I am going back to sleep. Sammobile has it up now as well.
EDIT:
T-Mobile now has a post up about the update here: http://support.t-mobile.com/docs/DOC-4446

i dont think this is the 4.1.2. i installed it and still 4.1.1. In sammobile it says 4.1.2, you can download it now.

No major changes. It appears to be a minor update. If you don't get it via OTA or Kies, you can download and manually install the update.

Check the Sammobile site, they have the 4.1.2 T999 update. the file size is 734mb.

the baseband version # changed. I checked around and found that LTE is no longer showing in the phones network mode menu. (it showed up when we did the 4.1.1 jb install) It is now back to gsm/wcdma, gsm only and wcdma only.

This is my thoughts too... I'm not flashing it... Or any update for that matter as 4.2.1 is working beautifully on my phone with rootbox
Sent from my SGH-T999 using Tapatalk 2

I let the update run and reboot. Since it was small I assumed it was to fix that bricking problem I read about a month or so ago. I'm still on stock JB non-rooted until someone makes a ROM with reliable wifi calling.
PS: Bluetooth A2DP still sounds like garbage on my motorola headsets. The crackling is so bad on my S305, that if the headset is at the other end of the room from you, it sounds like someone is opening a bag of chips.

How to disable "phone modified" message from this update?
Recieved the update today as well. Thinkng it was 4.1.2 so I went ahead and updated it. Well unfortunately the update seems to be a "security improvement" for rootes and flashed devices. (Maybe to prevent th from getting 4.1.2, not sure).. Here's the problem I went to check for update and that annoying pop up that my device is modified came up.. so I opened up Triangle Away and reset the flash count to zero and click on"system modified workaround", rebooted amd nothing. Device status still shows as modified. I was always able to get it to say to normal using triangle away. This new update prevents it. Any help? Thanks

You have to be 100% stock (ROM, kernel, and recovery) in order to flash ota updates
Sent from my SGH-T999 using Tapatalk 2

Yep ^^^ But also need to be unRooted as well.
You can use OTA Rootkeeper from Supercurio and preserve root that way. Save SU, temp unroot, take OTA, reboot, open OTArk and restore root. That is as long as you have what he said above in place as well.

Lost Update on Note II and Can't get it back! Help!

Hello, a couple of days ago I received a pop-up notification in my notifications bar that said an update was available for my device. This was on Wednesday. Since I was at school, I was unable to update at the time since I didn't have access to WIFI and had two tests to write. During my tests I had to turn off my phone. When I did, I guess the update disappeared because when I turned my phone back on it never came back! I tried going into "settings", "about", "software" and hitting "check for updates", but it just keeps checking for updates continuously and never actually finds one. I really want that update! How can I get it back?
I'm on Rogers, and my model number is I317M. Anything else you need to know, just ask. I really want my update back! Please help, and thank you in advance!

Maybe it was pulled by your carrier or Samsung.
Try kies to update. But you'll have to download the whole rom again then. Also you can try sammobile for latest rom.
If you are on pre dll7 do it asap.

Hello, thanks for your response. So if I try updating using Kies, I'll have to download my rom again (meaning I'd lose all my data)? I don't want to lose all my data! What is pre dll7? I'm actually on a rooted stock rom, does that make a difference? Sorry I just got this phone a couple of months ago, so I'm still new to it. Thanks!

Pre dll7 means the firmwares released before dll7 like dll4 and dll5 and all starting from a. No you won't loose data.
It's just like a normal update just you have to download the whole firmware of 1gig again.

Thanks again. Okay I'll try updating through Kies and see if that helps. Does this update work on devices with the stock ROM on them? Thanks!

Which update ?
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda app-developers app

Try clearing data from
Setting - application manager - all - software update (both)
Sometime it may able to get ota again
But even after getting update it will install successfully is a big question if your device is rooted.

I'm not sure since I lost the update before being able to check it out, but I'm assuming it is the "multi-window" feature that many other Samsung Galaxy Note II phones have recently received, as it was a software update. Has your phone received it yet?

Okay, so I should try clearing the data through the applications manager? You said both, but I saw you only mentioned clearing "software update" data, what do you mean? And I assume "ota" is the update, correct?
Why would having a rooted phone prevent me from receiving an update? When I had a Sony Xperia X10, it was rooted and I still received updates. I also have never heard of rooting impeding updates in any way. Was I misinformed??

you may see 'software update' application two times under application manager, i said clear data for both
yes, you are mis informed at least you have heard such things for Note 2.

Hello, so I went into the application manager and tried clearing both data, but it didn't seem to helpp me get the update back =( Maybe the only other way is to update with Kies as was said earlier. I'll try that. Also, thanks for responding and trying to help with my issue, I appreciate it! =)

Is your phone stock? If you're rooted and made any modifications to system files (mods, build.prop edits, etc) your phone will fail during the OTA. You need to be completely stock on the latest 4.2.2 radios for your model. Basically you have to be more or less on the 4.2.2 OTA to get 4.3.... always been like that for every android version though.
Can't you fasboot flash the factory images?

Exactly what happened to me. So, I flashed factory images, received OTA for 4.2.2, cleared Google Services Framework several times, 4.3 showed up. In process of installing. Good to go.

I think flashing the image it's the easiest way, any one had the link for yakju?

Also happened to me. Cleared "Google Services Framework" and tried to re-install 4.3 when it came down.
Still got an error
Any ideas?

Of course. And after promising the update after advertising it they halt it. And they put out no official posting of this that I could find. Or the person you talked to is full of it because they don't know why you have not got it and don't want to bother or don't know how to figure it out. The last is the most likely.
Now of it is true about the bug I wonder if they will push the bug free version out to everyone again.

when i connected my s3 to kies it says my 4.1.1 is the latest firmware
so did att stop rolling out the update?

You updated via Kies? I believe AT&T is only updating OTA, not through Kies.
Also, I was pure stock, but rooted. The update failed. It left my phone half updated and I couldn't get it to update, even after unrooting. This appears to be what happened to most rooted 4.1.1 phones on AT&T.
I had to flash back to stock via Kies in order for the update to work.

I was on 4.1.1 rooted and updated to 4.1.2 via OTA. What method did you use to re-root your phone?

Oh I'm sorry. Since this is an AT&T forum I just assumed.
I'm sure in a worse case scenario you can just flash it back to stock. I choose to use Kies because then I didn't have to download the correct firmware like you do with Odin.
The flash counter still says 1, but the Device Status did reset to Normal. Of course I lost root.

I don't think rooting enables tripping the counter. From what I understand, Tripping flash counter occurs when you flash a custom recovery on jellybean. Best method is to just reset the flash counter when you are going to unroot your phone by using the TriangleAway app: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1494114
