As of right now T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S3 known as SGH-T999UVLEM is upgrading to a newer Version which is SGH-T999UVLH2
I don't think the over the air (OTA) mode is working right now because I did many tries and it keep saying device up to date so if you want to try it us KIES. if you version of KIES is not up to date you will have to update it first then you will be able to upgrade the phone.
it will take about 10 to 15 minutes of your time and it will depend on your connection.
everything like root will be gone after the update. :victory:
ok after you update, you will be able to go back and use the same method you use to to root the older version and install a different boot.
mine is working fine I don't find any problem yet.
changlog
Anyone know what this update is for?
So I guess posting in one wrong section wasn't enough right? Stop trolling and keep this where it belongs in the general section.

this is not any good for us that are rooted and running a customer recovery.
Available for download form here, no Kies necessary.

Just reflash the custom recovery in Odin and flash the root file. Unless you mean not good for those that are running custom ROMs then that's a different story.
do the developers here give the okay to update to this, for those of us who are fully stock and not rooted? will we be able to get root easily still(with the same methods), even after this update?
Good question. I second that.

:good:
yes the same method you use to root and install the custom recovery will work with no problem. I am update and back to root
:good:
I've done this and after updating to SGH-T999UVLH2 Android File Transfer has stopped working.
KIES still continues to work, however.

That's the Windows 98 diagnostic approach "re-install the OS and see if that fixes it"
Are you saying it works fine for you?
I'm just curious... what are the improvements? I haven't seen that question yet
I hear you, no one is reporting anything about the update and I'm wondering if it's even worth doing. I wouldn't mind updating but sometimes you don't get the results and blind updates makes me wonder anyways.
Just going from memory so may leave something out. Its been mentioned but its scattered due to so many threads about the update.
New kernel, new radio (some report grand improvements), camera updated and has new features, reportedly better stability and battery, brightness slider added to notification window.,....ugh, damn now I'm blanking out on this! I know there's more, just escaping me at the moment. Ill post more when I think of it.

FWIW, the Kies update isn't working with Win 8.
it'll install, but will close when you try to run it.
Edit: sorry I got it updated but I'm still trying to get root now and using the tool kit is out dated and I can't seem to find info for it, anyone have a way to root after latest update.
Edit 2, all set. I even foubd a few things I havent seen posted yet. We'll see if it pans out but im good.
all share cast has been enabled with this new update...samsung keyboard had been updated...brightness adjustment on the notification bar...web browser has been refreshed as well...

Don't do it if you think you might ever want to be able to use Odin as a recovery option. Once you upgrade to 4.3 on AT&T you're stuck if something bad happens to your phone you're going to have a hard time fixing it.
If yours sure you want to do it then Odin your phone back to an early firmware as soon as it boots it will force you to take an update. It may be 4.1.2 or it may be 4.3? Not sure but you just let the phone update through ota. Or alternately there are files with instructions in threads labeled with names similar to 4.3 OTA official.

Well right now there are some disadvantages, imho, to upgrading to 4.3 stock, once the bootloader is updated you cannot downgrade to any other build at this time, but that is a call for u to make, if you want to ota to 4.3 you have to get on stock 4.1.2 which you do through odin and then ota, not what I would do at this time just to many horror stories for my taste on 4.3 right now

if i understand your question correctly, you're trying to flash a 4.3/4.4 AOSP-based ROM? but it keeps failing?
i'm sorta having the same problem too, whenever i flash any ROMs based off 4.3/4.4 AOSP, i get constant reboots, about 2-3 an hour.
i am using CWM for recoery, but i don't think i tried BeanStalk 4.4

It is all up to you. I have 4.3 and am happy with it. It is very stable and has decent battery life. It isn't without issues though. I have problems with it giving me the weak wifi signal message or that my Internet is too slow (10Mbps DSL? Slower than some but certainly no slouch) when it does this it disconnects and I have to manually tell it to reconnect. The other thing is in my battery stats built in the rom not all of the apps are being logged only things like screen on time, cell standby, wifi, bluetooth, basic phone stuff but none of the apps???
Why I wish I hadn't done it? Because I lost the ability to be able to recover my phone with Odin and the ability to do whatever it is I want to with the bootloaders.

Read the stickys here and in the general section it will have nearly all of the information and tools you need. Then you can get firmware to flash in Odin from http://www.sammobile.com go there register for an account click firmwares in the top bar of the site and search for your phones model number such as mine is SGH-I747 and a Canadian phone or Mexican phone would be SGH-I747M.

4.3 ota Rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2387423 Follow the instructions exactly and understand once you do this there is no turning back. You can run different roms but you have to have the 4.3 bootloaders you cannot for any reason EVER download the bootloaders
This will get you root, I had to use method #2 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2538991
I take absolutely no responsibility of any bad things that happen if you use the above links. make sure you understand the tasks you are wanting to preform and the risks associated with such, 4.3 has caused MANY HARD BRICKS.

Give it a few minutes to try to boot then pull the battery, boot to recovery and do a factory reset. if that doesn't work then flash the odin file again.
When you do get the 4.3 it will take several minutes to boot it will look like its stuck on the boot screen but be patient it will likely boot eventually.

No it shouldnt take ten minutes but 4.3 takes considerably longer than all the roms I have used in the past.
You are still at the stage of flashing 4.1.1 correct? if it didnt boot just reflash it(uncheck the box for auto reboot so you have to pull the battery out after you flash it) then go to recovery and do a factory reset, then reboot the phone, it should boot this time.
You did check to make 100% sure you downloaded the correct 4.1.1 file for the phones model? right?
Don't mean to make anybody sound silly just trying to figure out exactly whay is going on.

Do you still have custom recovery (Which one do you have) or do you have the stock recovery?
Edit: I see you edited your post after I quoted you to respond, glad you got it going, now just follow the guides as written for root, I had to use method #2, but you should try method 1 first.

If you have installed OTA update directly from the phone itself then rooting via auto-root is going to trip your KNOX Warranty BIT.
If you are not concerned about it then yes you can try auto-root or any other method.
Not worried about Knox just want root with no problems.

Hello All.. After over 5 years of flashing I think I have finally bricked my device.. I am normally great with directions and the forum however I think the latest 4.3 update got me twisted up. Odin'd back to stock and upgraded OTA. All was well.. Then I attempted Chainfire's CF root.. All was well and I froze on a phone call.. I battery pulled and now I get "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again".. I tried to go through Kies emergency recovery and it wont accept my serial numbers.. I called t-mobile they told me I need to bring it to a smasung dealer to get "flashed"... I'm at a lost now.. One thing else is when I access download mode I see this Knox Warranty Void : 1.. Does this mean I'm done? I've been trying to read up on this knox and it seems scary to say the least.. yet nothing I read has helped me.. After hors of searching and missing the football game I decided to look to the forums.. Any help is very much appreciated. :crying:
I tried to ODIN back to stock with several .tar files (UVBMB4 and UVALJ1) it fails and shows unsupported version(in red) on the device

This worked bro. Thanks again!!:good:
Well I give up... I have finally done something that I can not fix. I can normally google and find my own answers and I never have to ask anyone but this time is different.
I have the I317 Note 2, Everything was fine, I was running a stock rom earlier this week and the phone started acting funny. So I though screw it, Ill just go back to stock. So i downloaded.KIES_HOME_I317UCALJ2_I317ATTALJ2_215287_REV04_user_low_ship.tar and used Odin to flash the stock firmware. I DID do a full wipe before I went back to stock. It worked fine for 2 days. It kept wanting to download an update. So it did. When it restarted from the update that the phone downloaded it got stuck on the Samsung screen.
I thought no big deal, I will just reflash the stock firmware and start again... FAIL same thing happened. It wont get past the Samsung screen even after leaving it on that screen for a hour. So then I tried to get into recovery... it wont let me.Then I reinstalled the stock rom and waited for boot, then I flashed CWM and tried to get in to recovery that way. No luck.
I feel like I need to do a wipe and start all over but I cant figure out how to do a full wipe without recovery. There has got to be something easy that I am missing but I cant figure it out. I will keep on searching with hope that someone tells me what I am doing wrong or what to do.
THANKS
If its still able to go into download mode and odin recognizes the device your good just be patient and download the correct firmware.

There are some issues with the OTA update from LJ2 to MH3, which it appears you still have sitting on your phone. You can try booting recovery and clearing cache - that should get rid of the OTA file.
The thread below has some information on how to update from LJ2 up through MH3 and then MK6. It's intended for those who already have the MK6 bootloader - if you don't already have that or want that, you'll want to stop at MH3 and consider your options.

Do you know did I use the correct firmware? I have had to run Odin a couple of times before but its a no go this time... I can not get into recovery. Even if I run Odin now with TWRP and restart it still wont let me into recovery... Can I use Odin to to a full wipe?
Were you on 4.3 previously? Via OTA?

yes I did upgrade to 4.3 when it came available then I went to a custom rom. Then full wiped and downloaded what I thought was a stock rom and here I am.

One that would work.... LOL I really dont have a preference other then I did not care for 4.3 I ended up with 4.1.1 and I couldn't be more happy. If they ever get 4.4 I would try that.
Its funny 4yrs ago I had the Sprint Evo. I changed roms more often then I changed shirts it seamed. I never had the issues or anything like what I ran into yesterday. I was so careless just trying every rom that was released. Because of that I will always remember the EVO as my favorite phone.
Those were simpler times...
I assume you want root and know how to get it.
Since you have the mk6 bootloader you will need to avoid odin flashing any packages that contain bootloaders in the future. See my mk6 thread for details.
If you want to get to 4.1.2 there are rooted cwm packages for ma4, mc3, and mh3 available. Wherever you end up, I recommend freezing the AT&T Software Update apk from within Titanium Backup or equivalent to ensure that you don't get a forced ota update at some point in the future.

Good question from the looks of the information found in the link its still 4.4.2 just with some security updates. From a view doesn't seem like it but also wouldn't hurt to see it offers some improvements.
Android version: 4.4.2
Baseband version: APQ8064/MDM9x15M
Software Version: E98020h
Kernel version: 3.4.0
Build number: KOT49I.E98020h
If your own E98020g then the update is just only 5mb
E98020g -> E98020h: 5.15 MB (Wi-Fi not required)
Then again after the stunt AT&T pulled graying out the APN in the last update its pretty much at your own risk at this point.
Alright, I went ahead and let the update download and install. Upon the phone rebooting, it is now stuck in CWM recovery. I can't seem to get out of it. I guess the update is not friendly with custom recoveries.
Anybody have suggestions on what to do? I found similar posts on the LG G2 forums, but they talk about connecting the phone to adb while still in CWM. Every time I try that, I get "device offline" and can't send any commands.
This sounds the same as last update three months ago.

I used this method with this image the last time I went back stock.
I may just pass on this update as it is too big of a PITA to go back stock and then re-customize everything.
Saved my life!

I want to thank you very much!
The only reason I even created a profile on this forum is o thank you! Yes, clicked the thank you button!
Worked like a charm! I never heard of towelroot until now, and it took about 3 seconds to download and another 3 to install.
Worked like a charm no issues sir.
THANK YOU AGAIN!
That is the easiest root I have ever done in my life!

Sounds like you're in the same boat i was. Sucks.
I ended up using this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=44983841, but i needed to do it slightly differently. It gave me a lot of grief last night, but I ended up getting it to work if i pulled the usb in and out of the phone when the lgflashtool showed that it was "ready". I can't fully remember the exact combination that worked, but i finally got the kitkat tot to flash and then update and towel root. If you have any more questions, let me know and I'll try to step through it when i make it to my laptop.

For what it's worth I am stock rooted and was able to do the update with no problems. I would suggest if your not sure of what your doing to look through the forums and find a safe way to unroot, go back to factory rom and then do the update. It will save you hours of trouble. Good luck
Lol I must have hit the button while sleeping ..... Buddy called me and I remember hitting the notification area ...boom stuck recovery loop... Its all good now I got it all figured out and restored my stock kk. Pain in the ass lol. Is that update even worth it ... What all is in it ? Nothing major I'm guessing
