T989UVOH1 - Beginning October 5,2015 the Samsung Galaxy S II will have a software update to Android version* 4.1.2/ Software T989UVOH1 via OTA or Samsung Kies.* This update provides the Stagefright fix.
My phone wanted to update last night. did anyone take the update ? did it lose root ? what happened when it updated.
Right now i'm backing up my stuff and pushing all my contacts to google and everything before hand.
If you do not know what stagefright is then read :

http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software-hacking/fix-stagefright-patched-t3173500
- I like the rom i'm on and really dont want to go updating if it breaks my root and everything on my phone.
I found out that i would mostly need to update so im updating now to a new rom SLIMLP
Well I did a little flashing this weekend to see what this update really did. I will say it did nothing. The stagefright v1 and v2 are still active.
The rom is fully bloated to hell. I jumped off the rom after that. Do not update to this build from t-mobile it does nothing.
I wonder if someone can upload the new radio that comes with it.

If you like me have just upgraded to the 2.03 rom released in January and now HTC released a new rom with exactly the same changelog it may not be worth all the hassle with reinstalling / configuring all your stuff once again already.
I was pissed at HTC since they couldn't tell us what they changed since they told us to REAPPLY this update if we had installed it prior to february 27. So today I sent them this email:
Latest ROM update for HTC Touch Diamond. It took me over a week to customize my device after the 2.03 ROM released in january since I prefer to cleanly re-install everything instead of backups. Now a new ROM with the same changelog is already released & you say we should re-apply this ROM if we installed before february 27! Why? We are many people who don't wanna go trough all the hassle again. Why can't you just tell us what you fixed so we can decide for ourselves if it's necessary. The january ROM works just fine. Yours sincerely, ******.
And I just got an answer from them that I can't post here since it came with a confidentialy note. But I can tell you in short that they explained that there are lots of things and bugs for different time made devices and changes and that is why they can't say what is changed in the february 27 rom.
They also told me not to reapply the update if my device is working fine, there is no need to.
So you can without any worries stick with the january update for now if you don't experience any issues or don't feel like installing all your stuff from scratch

I have to soft-reset my device everytime during an installation, then run the install again. The x-button doesn't work properly (turned "close programs using x" on). Never had to use the red soft-reset button as often as with this ROM (crashes easily). Plus it's much slower than my previous official ROM.
I think this ROM update is for people like me...
Well maybe... I don't experience any of the problems you mentioned.

are u suggesting that htc should stop releasing updates for diamond?! dude, why using stock rom's, what's the fun in it anyway!?
No no, absolutely not!!!
But HTC released this rom (february 27) with the same changelog as the 2.03 rom they released in january and I've just gone trough reinstalling everything so the idea of installing virtually the same rom once again gave me a headache.
HTC urged us to reapply the update if we installed it before february 27 and I really needed to know why so I had to send them the email.
Of course I would be very happy to see new rom upgrades in the future as long as there are changes / fixes worth mentioning (They didn't even mention any fixes this time since they just posted the same changelog all over and it was only 1 month between the updates).
ROM info...
What's more... take a look at the version numbers:
January's ROM: v2.03.405.2
February's ROM: v2.03.405.3
When a version number change isn't even a point (i.e. the '.03' in the above example), believe me, not a lot has changed. But this is worse than that, a change from .03 to .04 would probably mean just correcting a spelling mistake... this change is so far down the points, it doesn't even make it past the 'what's the POINT' stage with me (get it... what's the POINT!!) - OK, rubbish joke
Maybe the newer ROM fixes problems that only appear under special constellations.
For my part it fixed a problem i had:
Sometimes TouchFlo 3D diddn't start correctly after a softreset (from Sprite Backup),
device kept powered on until battery was empty.
They don't list a newer changelog for this ROM, but i find it strange that the Jannuary
version is no more available on the website.
But i agree, if the Jannuary version runs fine absolutely no need to upgrade.
My Note 2 has been updated to 4.1.2 last month. And this morning it got another update from AT&T. After the update I checked the version number, it's still 4.1.2. Don't know what's going on. Anyone else has this experience? I played around and didn't notice any difference in appearance or performance.

I jsut got the same thing...Note sure what it does of If i should accept it.
I got one too but I'm running SkyNote so I'm not sure if I should accept either..
Latest OTA update from ATT is MA4. Updated kernel which includes a security patch for the exploit issue. In the past, you had to be completely stock to successfully take the update (stock rom/recovery).

I got it thanks. There's a mention on the other forum that this is a security patch for the chip.
Hi all,
Just rooted my device for the first time today using TWRP and flashing SuperSU. I was hoping it was going to give me the ability to upgrade my device to a stock android version of Lollipop. As I'm looking around it seems like that is not supported by the community. I have used the search bar and haven't come up with much, except a few old threads when Lollipop was just released.
I found this thread here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2755532 that suggests nobody has modded it past it's final android update 4.2.2. The only difference it seems is it gets rid of some of the uninstallable Samsung and Google apps.
I just wanted to confirm that there is no development going on past 4.2.2 for the Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 Lite (SM-T110) before I flash a new ROM from the list.
Thanks.

I would also like to know, I bought the tablet today for my son, but never checked about the android version, and now i can't update the kids mode on it,so being to get it to update would be brilliant, if not i'll have to take it back and exchange it for one that has a newer version.
Maybe in the future:

My wife's fully stock (4.4.2) N5110 started getting update notifications from Samsung Software Update.
Per the info, it's a 7.61 MB 'device stability and bug fixes' patch that includes security enhancements and StageFright fix.
Is there information on everything installed with this patch?
Will installing this block any future attempts at root / installing a custom ROM? (If she ever lets me; this is solely her device and doesn't care about root/ROMs )
Since this is a wifi only note8 - how vulnerable is it to stagefright if I don't patch? Everything I've read says 'stagefright is more than an MMS vulnerability' but then the details only go into the MMS vuln :|
Thanks in advance and sorry if this has been covered elsewhere - I searched and didn't find anything.
I noticed the update today and decided to install it. It did not take very long to install and the Android version number is still 4.2.2, so it doesn't seem that there is anything major. I have yet to notice any changes, but I haven't used my tablet much today I should note that I am also using the wireless version of the Note 8.0 and I have never rooted this devices.
If I learn anything else I'll post here.
It's too bad that they didn't decide to bump things up to 4.4.4 (could use those Bluetooth fixes that were introduced in 4.4.3) while they were at it.
Anyway, I just noticed that there's a new stock rom posted for the USA variant on Sammobile.com and samsung-updates.com. So this is officially "a thing." Haven't flashed it myself yet and I probably won't; I've moved on to Cyanogenmod 12.1. But it's nice to know that Samsung is still pushing out updates for this thing.

Can anybody describe to me in short lines about latest software update (official ofc) which as i see is november 2020 update in my place, Europe - Serbia. Is there any big/new changes in comparation with stock one? Battery life? Bugs? I got new phone, currently is everything stock and i am completely satisfied with everything, even without gms and rest things....just wanna know about those updates, do i missing it or isn't much big deal. I see there is roll back too using hisuite, one more thing that encourages me.
