Got my update at 6:00 am EST this morning.
I kinda like this Samsung ROM. Not sure I want to ditch it to root and try other ROMs that are probably more buggy at this stage, unless I can guarantee full recovery to stock and hopefully not take up too much space storing ROMs (9GB user space is getting used up fast!).
I was hoping for an update that would improve other things, such as batter life, for one.
I see that Samsung released an update recently on international versions (build number ending in MDM) that may have improved other things besides what is reported to be improved in this build pushed from T-Mobile. Can someone shed some light on this? How do we know if T-Mobile has pushed fixes that include the latest Samsung updates? In my 'About Device' in settings, I see Android version 4.2.2, Kerrnel version 3.4.0-453951, and Build number JDQ39.M919UVUAMDL, which I believe is this update.

The system partition's size does not change no matter what you flash. You can return to stock, see guide.
Is the kernel locked on this one?
Locked kernel = can't install recovery via goo or ROM manager.. And must use ODIN. O;

Yeah that's what is disclosed, but maybe they made some framework charges that are subtle that not everyone notices. I'm not installing until it's confirmed to not have a locked kernel. 16mb could include what they said with some small changes that aren't disclosed.

MR 4 means Maintenance Release 4.
It's their 4th maintenance release for the phone.
I think it went EL26 -> EL29 -> FF18 -> FH13. were all OTAs
Was expecting this since they added FH13 to the open source page this morning as mentioned over here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=30559316&postcount=202

As long as the "core" apps are in place and all you did was root, according to the sfhubs threads with one clicks, you'll get the ota.
That being said - being rooted alone, people have failed at getting ota pushes.
If you really want ota, best bet is to go back stock and unless anyone can say different, that means going back to ek02..
(My 2 cents..)

Actually, Live Wallpapers used to scroll left and right when moving through home screens. Samsung removed that feature a couple of updates back. I think a certain fruity company says they own the patent or something. They seem to own everything else.

I will say that this is one of the ONLY phones that I ever thought about NOT romming but I doubt I will be able to hold back if something really good comes out...Hello, I am Justin, I am a flashaholic!
GOTTA have root access though... Can't have any company telling me what I HAVE to keep on my phone! :good:
My exact same thoughts. I only rooted to get rid of the bloat. Quick question though. ... im a little nervous... would I still be able to update if tmobile decides to push one even though im rooted?

I hope not to also but when a new version of android comes out and no update from the carrier then flashing seems like the only option..

Deff agree on that one. But alas, i will miss alot of the OG functions from touchwiz on this phone. Although with GN1, they found work arounds for it. Especially S Note.
My plan is to root as late as I can to avoid messing things up. I figure we won't see an update for a few weeks and by then all the bugs that come along with rooting a phone should be worked out. I really enjoy this phone and can, surprisingly, wait on rooting.

I know when I rooted that if I go to check for a software update it says it won't do it on a modified device so I am pretty sure we won't get OTA's through the rooted devices but you can just wait for someone to post the updated OTA and flash that and your good to go!
Or do you still have stock recovery?
Only rooted for bloat and spyware removal and a nice kernel. But im only flashing stock TW based roms!

I was just thinking that same thing, great, now I gotta put my phone back to stock, update, and re-root. But then the XDA snob kicked in and said "why isn't there a leaked ROM on here already deodexed lol?" So spoiled. I'm sure there will be a deodexed version posted Wednesday, if not earlier. Our devs are pretty quick on getting stuff like that out, especially THIS update. This is the version everyone has wanted, wifi calling combined with multiwindow

Bgr is reporting the samething.
http://bgr.com/2013/03/15/galaxy-s-4-features-galaxy-s-iii-380013/
I think we will probably get those new features after the S4 is out, but I think it will also be packaged as JB 4.2, so I feel we will have both the new features and currently released Android OS, so it will get Panorama shot, lockscreen widgets, etc. If we do get JB 4.2, that will be 2 major OS updates since official release (ICS 4.0 > JB 4.1 > JB 4.2.
I also hope that the Note 1 (I have the international version running on Straight Talk's AT&T and also on T-Mobile's $30/month plan) gets some of the new S4 enhancements and maybe JB 4.2 as well, but that would be a stretch.
