[Q] Latest Incremental Update LI3

Rooted, Stock, LG8
Started getting OTA notifications this morning. Rebooted into recovery and the notifications went away. Still on LG8. Am I missing anything substantial on LI3? Should I just wait for the official JB update? Thanks in advance.

Official JB release has yet to be officially announced with a date. So, I suggest you go ahead and update. At least you'll stop getting the notifications if you do.

Thanks for the reply, Naddict. Couple of questions:
-In order to update to LI3, is it as simple as going through the "System Update" utility in the settings?
-Is it safe to assume that once I update to LI3, I'll lose root?
-If so, how do I go about gaining root again? (It's been a while since I first rooted, so I'm unsure of the methods.)

yes you must be stock and have stock revocery and it will update no problem and yes you will lose root unless you use app like ota rootkeeper or just re root like you did the first time look at qbking77 video

Your thread is relevant to my question, so I'm hoping someone can help me, as well.
I'm new to android, and I've found that every time there is an OTA update, I cannot find ANY information on it. I received a notification to update today, as well, yet it doesn't tell me what changes will be made or what is being updated. Is this normal for android? I'm not exactly sure where to look for this information, since hitting "more info" tells me nothing.
Not trying to invade on your post, but I'm thinking you might know the answer to this.
Thanks!

OTA's are manufacturer specific. Sprint does provide information as to what the updates do for you. Just use the Internet machine and go to Sprint's website...

Hi Naddict. Thanks for humoring my "Hi. I'm super new and have stupid questions" status.
My "internet machine" (awesome) must be limited to banning all updated information. On the sprint blog for S3 updates the latest one is from 9/19 and I don't see any relevant information regarding an update from today. That's where my confusion lies.
My main issue is that I don't even know what to search for, as I don't receive any information regarding the update number/title/etc.
A popup just asking me to install a "system update" doesn't really do much for me. I'll keep looking. :good:
Take care,
Mike

Thank you very much. I saw the Samsung Galaxy SIII Software Updates post on the Sprint website but it shows a release date of 9/19, which was causing my confusion. I was looking for something from today specifically since this is the first time I had an update popup.
Have a good one.

No worries! I didn't take it as an insult. It's good to have people that joke around Nice to meet ya.

Well now I'm just lost.
I used Mobile ODIN to flash a stock recovery, then I tried to flash an LG8-L13 .zip I found on another forum. I got an installation error. I went back to CWM and tried the flash the update, same error. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. Is there a file, or at least a link to an update .zip that works in CWM?
Edit: Just found and flashed two files through CWM. So far so good.
Here's the Link for the update:

[OTA Update] Touchwiz 4.3 T-Mobile NOW available! MJC.

So my mother's non-rooted stock UVDMD5 S3 was sitting there and mobile background said update checker used 3 kb, so I checked the update checker and a 527.00 MB file started downloading. Just a heads up, is it the new download?
Edit 1 : Confirmed, this is Android 4.3 official.

Confirmed. Kernel version 3.0.31-1962493, Produced October 31.

Edit 2 : @DocHoliday77 has confirmed this actual OTA is ONLY for the SGH-T999..if you don't have one (you won't get the OTA) but DO NOT FLASH OR ATTEMPT TO FLASH ANY ODIN FILES!
Edit 3 : This has KNOX. Proceed at caution.
Edit 4 : have you ever been to jail? No? Me either. But if I had to picture it this update is much like it. Still to Docs leak thread or AOSP but don't touch this with a fine toothcomb if you want to root and later downgrade.

One way to find out, I suppose. I'm not currently rooted, the phone's bone-stock. Saw the download and immediately came here to see what was going on. Under 30 megs remaining.

check samfirmware...theres an update with over 800 mb

I guess that's a confirmation. Any issues? The AT&T version was riddled with problems.
Edit- Confirmed. Kernel version 3.0.31-1962493, Produced October 31.

According to Kies the update is MJC so its probably the same or similar to leak version DOC post .

Cool! I'd say something like, "Hopefully, we'll should see a rooted version soon...", but this is XDA where it's definitely possible.

seriously though, this is awesome! im bout to download in a min. will then upload to AFH so you guys dont have to wait on that blazing fast Hotfile!
will post more info in a few...
but yes, its the same as my leaked build, can anyone confirm if i was correct and knox is NOT included?

anyone have any issues with the update? I saw on engadget that some other carriers pulled the update due to problems

Can someone upload a rooted Odin package, please!
If possible, if not without root.
Thanks

Ok, something important to be aware of. From piecing information together from users around these and other forums, it appears just about everyone who had problems with the 4.3 update had updated via OTA. So if you choose to update this way, please let us know how things go. But if you do experience problems, DONT PANIC, Grab Your Towel, and start downloading the Odin flashable full firmware update.
This of course will include the T-Mobile kernel. I am 90% certain that the reason WiFi did not work with the leaked kernel is because we did not flash the full firmware update. I believe the WiFi modules needed to be built into the bootloader (likely the aboot partition to be exact). This is what I was attempting to confirm when I bricked my phone. So by flashing the full firmware/OTA update, you should have a fully working build, including WiFi if I am correct.
Aside from this, I would suggest reading through some of my posts in the leaked Rom threads. This is the same build that was leaked to us a week or so ago. Do let me know how things are going, I wish I could join you guys in the discovery phase of this "official" version, but I seriously doubt that other than the kernel working, and Knox likely being left out, it will be any different from what we have been using.
I do not see any reason you should not be able to root, but I will get an insecure kernel posted asap. As soon as my download finishes. In the meantime, if anyone wants the insecure kernel from the leaked build, it should be exactly the same one. Download here:
UVUEMJC_Insecure_kernel.zip
Hope everything goes well, and I am still here to help!

a root66 version will be coming soon. These have always been released within a day of us getting a new official release. Please be patient though, as I don't think mrRobinson has the S3 anymore. I will send him the download link as soon as I have it posted on my AFH account.
If he cannot get to it, i will do my best to get you guys a root66 build asap. But again, please be patient.
---------- Post added at 10:38 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:34 AM ----------
You know, I have to be honest....I was hoping to be wrong about the latest leak becoming our official build! Was hoping they would update one more test build first, then we would have had another kernel/modem/build......oh well! I must say that I am quite surprised they went through with our release so quickly!
Someone must be watching us......

Thanks Doc, I'm in no rush.
Thanks for all your help, great appreciated.

oh, one more thing. if updating via ota, try Voodoo OTA Roitkeeper from the store. its worked in the past to preserve root.
and can someone pull the ota before applying it, and upload it for me please?
look in /data/fota, /data/temp, /cache/fota
its there somewhere, just cant remember for certain.

Sprint update

I just read that T mobile is pushing out an update. Any word on sprints first update. Since im rooted I will not be able to take it. So we will have to wait for a dev to make it flashable. Is this correct? Or is there a way to still get it when sprint pushes one?

We will have to wait on a dev . Generally it's always fairly quick.

Use Xposed to make your device 'Official' and make sure software update isnt frozen.

Also can I be on a custom rom. Or do I need to be stock rooted. Thanks again

I'm kind of in the same position
So I have to flash the update in odin whenever it's available?

Ok I got it to work on bonsei rom. Not sure of taking an update on Bonsei. Any input? When an update does roll out, Im assuming I need to be stock. Love to hear from the devs if taking an update on bonsei is possible.

Silly me I thought Sprint finally updated our devices so we can extend our battery life and whatever else t-mobile got. But yes you can use the mod to spoof offical or just wait for a rom to include it or just odin back to stock and reroot once it arrives

If you use xposed it does not matter if you use a custom recovery the Dev will include it eventually. You could go the stock route also just backup your things

[5.1.1/OF7/OFE] Mostly Stock Kernel - with root! (7/14/15)

Here it is! Root for 5.1.1 thanks to @djvoleur! I helped a little but he did most of the work. Thanks also goes to @g.lewarne for his work on Unikernel as a couple of their ramdisk commits were needed to get this going.
This will trip KNOX. It will. Trip. KNOX. IF YOU HAVE NOT TRIPPED KNOX YET - THIS WILL TRIP IT. ALSO - you CANNOT downgrade after you take the OTA so be sure you want it.
I hope that's clear enough?
Instructions:
After you've booted into OF7 or OFE, go to Settings > About device and tap Build number 7 times to enable Developer Mode.
Go back and select Developer options and turn on OEM unlocking
Reboot in to download mode (Power + Home + Volume Down)
Use ODIN to flash boot-of7root.tar
After your phone boots you will now have root! You may also be back on stock recovery, which is fine since we don't have a working one for 5.1.1 just yet
You'll notice constant messages about security issues because of KNOX and the kernel being permissive. To get rid of these, open Titanium Backup (or your personal favorite app freezing app) and freeze SecurityLogAgent.

ENJOY!

@g.lewarne is the unikernel dev. Glad you guys figured it out, he's been camping and not really able to download anything so grabbing your kernel source was pretty tough.

Yes, this is root for the OF7 update. Best way to update right now since we still don't have a stock tarball for OF7 yet is flash back to stock OE2, update, and flash this kernel for root.

New OGA update rolling out. Stagefright fixer!

Would you update your device to fix the Stagefright? Or would skip the update because you want root? Let's hope the current root trick works on this one.

This issues has been around for awhile so i would wait to see what the developers do

I'm not rooted so I just downloaded this 53mb update and it's applying now. Actually advises that it's a security fix for Stagefright and nothing else. It has finished applying in the time I've been typing this and just rebooted, but it has to go through the app optimizing. It jumped up to 224 of 348 quick enough, but the time consuming wait for the rest of them. Tick, tock...

Downloaded and am installing now.

I installed this update did not notice anything else changed. For some reason the s6 stagefright fix was only around 50MB while the S5 was close to 300MB, and the only thing claimed to be fixed in the s5 release notes was the same thing.

Updated, and screw root. Phone good enough to not need it.

Can someone give me an fast link to the OGA G920P or G925P firmware please? Or to the OTA zip.
So that I can rip the fixed stagefright lib files from it for my ROM.

Getting 1.2gb system RAM usage after the update. Hoping it's a tiny fix, it's a relief to have 600MB more free to do what I want with, was getting 1.8/1.9GB system ram usage before update.
Will post update in a few hours to see if this is still true.

Any root for it yet guys?

So I was looking up where to get the kernel source code for the new oga update and Samsung has not released it yet.. I was thinking of trying to learn how to make a kernel myself for root

Update then use odin to flash unikernel v6-0001 and then the twrp both here in xda forums. i did this and have full root with no issues.

Can someone (who have rooted OGA) upload all stagefright lib files in /system/lib & /system/lib64 folders for me please?
So that I can make an Stagefright flashable fix for all S6 models/firmwares.

Assuming the libs are the same for 920P and 925P, someone posted theirs for the 925P here.
edit - I don't know that they were rooted though.

Ah thank you very much for this!! :good:
Will test them out on my G925F based ROM.
EDIT: Unfortunately they doesn't work on the F firmware

Everything is good after this update, but cent that the battery seems to be going down faster

If your still on stock kernel then battery does suck down quick

Tried unikernel v6 and failed
Tried, went through Ok, but when got to phone the screen wouldn't work. Wouldn't register finger. Buttons worked though. Idk

You tried the update or changing kernel?

Did update, then used the mentioned kernel. Pass in Odin, but when phone rebooted just the buttons where working. No touch screen
