It could mean the update has been approved and waiting for ota. Or samsung is fixing the sd card issue before pushing it out. But not many places have it only a few countries and 2 U.S. carriers...

Samsung's source page for our phone doesn't show the KK software yet. It will appear there before any OTA update.

Still no KK software. How long will it be? I assume Tmo is waiting for all the Note 3 updates to settle down first?

Yeah, that's my assumption too. I believe it will be this month anyway, but I'm going to hold off downloading initially; I reckon that as with the update from 4.2 to 4.3 re Knox, anyone on Knoxless 4.3 roms is going to have issues gong to 4.4

Just flash a custom ROM. They have knox removed. Or are you trying to get official without root? You may be able to create a custom tar file without the boot loader. I've never tried it so I wouldn't know first hand but that's what I'd start with.

4.1.2 on SGH-T999V?

Anyone knows if the SGH-T999V (Videotron, Wind, etc.) is getting the 4.1.2 update anytime soon?
I know they're usually slow with updates.
Sent from my SGH-T999V using xda premium
It should roll out in a week or two. I just have custom rom running 4.1.2 stock touchwiz try out axis rls 19. It's all themed but you can just choose stock and it has a lot of modifications.
I get s4 weather widget though. Here's the link:

I was on chat with a Videotron tech and he told me there's no date set for when the 4.1.2 firmware will be available.
I guess the same goes for all Canadian carriers of the S3 (version SGH-T999V).
Any news from Wind or the other Canadian carriers?

In the past they didnt announce a date, they just did it. Im certain itll happen though. Just gotta be patient I guess.
You can still flash one of the 4.1.2 roms based on the us version.

It seems we've been waiting long enough already but, what can we do?

I don't know what you mean by "real update" since the T999V's only difference is the baseband. If you get a stock rooted build of MD5 (Root66 is a great example), you have a "real update" to 4.1.2. Its just not official by Samsung but it will work the same as an official release would.
actually, there are more differences. Each of the 3 Canadian versions are very close to each other indeed, but there are small differences in what bloat is added. Plus I was also told one of them (videotron I think) uses different network technologies than the other two.
None of them have T-Mobile bloatware though and are quite lightweight in that regard I've been told.
You are correct though, that any of them can use each others builds (minus baseband) and can easily get 4.1.2 by doing so.

Yep that's what usually happens. International versions get it first. Samsung can just push the update to those devices. However, for the US versions, the carrier gets the update from samsung and "tweaks" it... Basically making sure it works with their networks and adding the carrier bloatware.

Every time Sprint releases firmware upgrades they take the old firmware and put it in a blender. Breaking all the learned and established ways of adding features... Forcing devs to continually reinvent the wheel each and every time. All for no real reason.

I have to disagree. At least with my old epic touch. Ics was a complete flop as far as I'm concerned and jelly bean was worlds apart. And after source got released the devs over there anyway were able to create some great roms and kernels. I think this update will be pretty good. However it will still be jelly bean but with some tweaks of course.

If you could PM me this custom-03 kernel you have, although I may have tried already, I sure would appreciate it....

Keep Calm and waiting for KitKat
If they are still talking 4.2.2 on February 8, 2014, we have a long wait until 4.4 . They usually have some test builds before they release a rom, and from what I can tell, they haven't even started on 4.4 for this device. NB8 is the latest as referenced in the above post.
N for 2014
B for Feb (2nd month)
8 for 8th day
I would say at the bare minimum, 3 months before 4.4 on this device.

I'm bone stock, not rooted. Took the update last night, and haven't noticed anything worth noting so far. I only seemed to have wifi problems when my router would get rebooted, then all would clear up after a few hours/overnight.
I wonder if there were some changes in there that were necessary for the 4.4 update?

If you do try be careful. The update includes Knox so if you root the wrong way it'll trip the Knox flag, which is currently a permanent thing at the moment.
