Official Tmo 4.1.2 rollout

Sammobile says Tmo has started the rollout for 4.1.2 on the sgh-t989 via Kies. I can't find anything on Tmo's site but sammobile has the Odin .tar file up. http://www.hotfile.com/dl/202091699/c92decf/T989UVMC6_T989TMBMC6_TMB.zip.html
*edit*
Now its finally official from T-Mobile.
"Beginning April 8, the Samsung Galaxy S II will have an optional software update to Android version 4.1.2/ Software T989UVMC6 via Samsung Kies only. This update changes the OS to Jelly Bean.
You can update in one way:
Manual download to T989UVMC6 If you want to update to T989UVMC6, you can update via Samsung Kies. Ensure you are on the latest version of Kies prior to attempting the update. See http://www.samsung.com/us/kies/ to confirm the version.".

Just installed with Odin. Looks cool. Now I'm late for work. :laugh:

Would this work on a SGH-T989D (Koodo)?

Try rebooting the PC.
Make sure Kies isn't running.

Lmao.. All of you guys rushing to flash an unrooted stock ROM just to see something we all have already seem in custom ROMs for the last month or more.. Its hilarious. Especially since half of you will now start a thread asking how to root the new update.. Its an awesomely hilarious cycle.
Especially since in less than a day all of the custom twiz ROMs will be updated.. Lol.

I've never actually ran Kies before...Can we update even if we're rooted, different ROM/Recovery? Or do we need to go back to stock?

I think people are just happy to have something that SHOULD be 100% stable. I've found one or two ROMS for 4.1.2 that have been 95% stable, and it's took some massaging on my part to make it work 99%. It'll be interesting to see how Samsung did 4.1.2 on our phones, so I'm down to download. I can rock stock for a little while

Ive been running CM 10.1 and will probably go back to it for the hotspot. I wanted stock for future use if I need it which I will debloat myself. A lot of people like rooted stock over custom roms because most custom roms have bugs and so does CM 10.1. And yes, it seems someone popping into the thread and lol'ing is also part of the humorous cycle.

So no multi window with jelly bean for us? Or is that just for 4.2.2

If you're running rooted stock you can just update and reroot. If you're on a custom rom you'll need to Odin back to stock.

Ok. This is confirmed....But
Has anyone modded this to flash outside the software update? Since my phone is rooted and lokified it will not take the update, and a boot loop or something is waiting.
Has anyone have a download and "modded" version for us lesser children???:angel:

BE ADVISED: More than likely if you are rooted and you go back to stock and flash this ROM, you will NOT be able to root right away, and Free Gee probably will not work, so if this is important to you. Do NOT flash this ROM OTA. wait till the dev's come up with a rooted version.

We have a T-Mobile Kernel now, What ROMS can we install?

now that we have a working kernel for our device, what roms are we able to flash with out kernel and have good results?
Will regular S6 roms work or will we have to stick to edge only? I dont mind about losing the edge function too much.

We had a kernel for a while lol....... You could regular s6 roms but u will lose all the edge functions.... international roms still don't work,

Nothing catches my eye more than a KT kernel though. Thanks for the suggestion of regular s6 roms.
You said international roms won't work, what does that include? Does Canadian versions work on our device?

I tried tmobile S6 rom which is XtreStoLite Pure Edition 1.0c with our custom kernel.....and is not working...(on full wipe)
I mean is working but when you switch screen OFF you can't switch ON back...
(PS screen is flashing looks like white/black colors)
So what do you mean we can flash other roms?
Come guys post links !

What recovery did you use? There's a user in the 5.1.1 rom thread who has had success using v2 TWRP in the same the ad. Really hope your wrong or using an old recovery, because I was looking forward to flashing that rom.

v2 recovery of cause.
I flashed stock rom via odin, flashed latest recovery via odin (v2 twrp)
Boot up the phone. After that restarted to recovery, full wiped, flashed that rom, flashes kernel.
Restarted. It's working until u will switch screen off.

Did u flashed on 5.1.1? Or on 5.0.2 ?

While on 5.0.2 would be the safest way to go, would be my best assumption, though I've tried neither yet. If you flashed while on 5.1.1, might be worth trying over 5.0.2 instead of waiting for others to reply and sitting idly! Just my $.02. :good:

Huh... So you haven't done over top of 5.1.1, then, I re-assume? Wouldn't have ever imagined that first... Might be worth trying 5.1.1, then if it doesn't work, we'll have to wait for the others. Hope you get it working, bud! :highfive:

New device galaxy s6 {root not} or {update & root}

Hey folks I've just now upgraded to this device and have been a dev for write some time now but mostly for HTC. My firmware and kernel are predated may of 2015 so I'd like to get suggestions from users that have had experience with the s6. What I'm looking to do is sim unlock, root, run twrp recovery, and eventually build roms for this device. So where should I start, take the update first, then sim unlock, root, & recovery, or do all of this now before I update my firmware using the ota? I've read that we can access root with 5.0.2 & 5.1.1 but what's your opinion? I would rather not trip my Knox but it's not a deal breaker if I do, since I own my device. Thanks in advance for your input. Oh and I'm not a noob and have read all the threads here. It's just a little confusing where to start since the device has been out a while now. You're all ahead of my game a little bit. Lol

Just do it all now. The 5.1.1 update isnt huge.

Will I just have to flash the updated firmware and rom to get the 5.1.1 if I do it all now?

Just updated today. It is an excellent guide.

Well an update here. The build that came with my device was not listed anywhere as rootable or unlockable. What I did find was info stating to update my device to get a newer version that would be workable. After that update my device still had a version that nobody could do anything with yet. Looks like I'll just have to wait it out or get another device before my 14 days are up.

Any improvement to battery or usability at all or signal strength or something you noticed different after updating bb and BL. Thanks.

After everything I have read in regards to the MM update for our tmo note 4, I find myself kind of nervious about doing the update. Can we downgrade to DOK2 just in case things are not so great on the EPE3 update?

Hi,
Your data fix worked but have some minor issues I guess,
1) it changes the power button menu back to LL style (not blurred background anymore)
2) long press of back key was gone (this brings menu option in apps like)

surprising that it worked I am on Noble ROM, and new TMobile BL..

This is going to make me sound like a newb... but what is this data fix for and what exactly does it fix?
Is it needed only for non-stock ROMS or does it need to be done with the official T-Mob ROM also?

this is for custom roms like S7E MM port roms

Did anybody figure out how to get back s7 power menu after flashing this fix? On other data fixes we lose the power menu and gets replaced with LL power menu also but I would just replace the build prop with the one from the rom zip i downloaded and i would get the power menu back. But that's not working anymore.
