As far as I remember reading, we should just about be ready to start receiving the 4.3 OTA on our phones. I'm starting this thread as a place to come let others know once they've received the OTA. I'll be keeping my eyes peeled throughout the night and into tomorrow. Come keep me company with some mindless banter!
Ill be waiting from El Salvador, regards.

Update T-Mobile
If we're rooted and it's saying your phone is modified, we don't get the update right? Where can I find that update on here so I can do manual Rom update, I got a Galaxy Gear Watch I wanna use. T-Mobile Galaxy S4 rooted.

If your rooted and it says modified u wont recieve the update to 4.3.
There is the system dump that was make into a rom but its not an official release u have to be on stock UVUAMDL to recieve the official 4.3 update from tmobile when its released.

Bitter sweet seeing how KitKat made its way to our phones via custom roms already. But good news as far as TW goes I guess. My bet..
4.4 custom rom
4.3 official tw
4.3 custom tw
4.4 official GE
4.4 stable custom rom
Galaxy S5 with 4.4
4.4.2 comes out
4.4 official tw (if)

You can update by kies, no by OTA, sorry for my bad english

So far, all the dates for the other carriers were on point. I doubt EVERYONE will get it today, but all we need is one person to get it who has enough know-how to get a flashable zip posted here. I'll put my money on that happening within 24 hours from now. I'll eat my words if I'm wrong.

I believe it will be OTA be cause what would be the point in having system update under settings if there is no use for it .
If i get the update and stay rooted after 4.3 update i will pull .cfg file if it is ota

as for me, i was hoping an automated system would start pushing the update at midnight. But that was wishing thinking i guess. Though it wont matter for me much longer with my nexus 5 ordered.

No, I just thought people were impatient. The thread title is not accurate as the update is not really rolling out yet.
I'm hoping that t mobile was last for the update because it was also working on the metro pcs gs4. At least all galaxy s4's have followed the leaked schedule, If not I'll just have to go custom on my metro gs4.
I'll stick with my version for now. Even though I've flashed several 4.3 ROMS... I'm not updating to TMOs OTA for this whole knox fiasco. Might be worth it if there are significant kernel tweaks and overall performance gain. I've appreciated the direction TW has been headed, at least it has been getting significantly better.

Let the ROM watch begin. Here comes ND8 KitKat. CNexus confirms that with this update we will finally be on a 3.4 kernel!
http://opensource.samsung.com/reception/receptionSub.do?method=sub&sub=F&searchValue=sph-l710
No, you can't install anything from this link. It's source for developers. But it means in the next day or so the roll out of ND8 KitKat will begin OTA.
It's great news.
And as always, don't just excitedly grab the update before you find out what's in it. We don't need another thread full of whiners.
There are plenty of competent people here who can modify the OTA if needed; the last time it took only a few days after the roll-out.
Awesome
Remember, if you get the notification, please try and get the actual file name of the update file and post it here. Once we have that name we can suss out the full download path of the file and it can be downloaded directly from the google server. In the past the path has been:
android.clients.google.com/packages/ota/sprint_samsung_l710/XXXXXXXXXXX
where the X's are replaced by the file name.
Post the filename here if you get it!
Noted.

If this is anything like KitKat for the Note3 it will be a winner. My Note 3 got way faster when I updated to KitKat. It was the single biggest improvement I have ever seen on a device with an OS update and I started using Android when the Samsung Moment came out on Sprint !

It means they can hax0r it so that it does not take away your phones ability to be rooted and pretty much boring.
So...They hax0r it, you continue to root it, then your phone continues to r0x0rs your b0x0rs all nightx0rs........:victory:
That's basically it. Things can be twisted around a bit if needed and any remaining bugs can be remedied.

We can remove checks of your bootloader version, remove flashing of the new bootloader, etc.
Ah okay. Sounds good. So hold off until a stripped OTA is posted. Got it. Now to just find a 4.4.2 Rom that mimics The S4/5.

Finally...now I can update the wife's and daughter's phones....JB really borked the daughters so much so that I told the wife not to update so this will finally relive me of having to answer "my phone keeps telling me to update something, should I?" questions...
And before someone yaps up about "why not root" - it's because I don't want to deal with the bugs/updates/mods on their phones and besides, Flixster (an app they both use a lot) doesn't work on rooted phones (until somebody releases an update to OTA Rootkeeper or other app that hides root).
Did anyone else just have a message from T-Mobile pop on the screen about something to with an update?
Just curious because I just did twice, but each time it stated something about me running an unofficial version of android.
After several restarts it popped up again except this time I was able to grab a screen shot of it. I hope this is really it.

Nothing for T-Mobile T999 in my area yet. Make sure you guys mention your device model, carrier, and current build too please. These will all make a difference.
There has been no kernel source released yet though and from what I've seen recently they've been releasing that before or at the same time as the updates. Doesn't mean anything for sure but figured it'd be worth mentioning.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using Tapatalk
Nothing for me either, says its up to date for my T999, just flashed to NC2 to check :/
Sent from my SGH-M919 using Tapatalk
Oh, and if you get the update and want to pull it so you can share it here, this is what you do.
Let the update fully download, but when ready choose postpone. Next flash twrp via Odin, then reboot into recovery. Use the built in file manager to copy the update.zip to your sdcard. I think it will be in /data/fota or maybe in /cache. If not just look around for the fota folder.
Or if you choose, flash the supersu zip after booting recovery, then reboot, install a root browser and copy it that way.

I haven't had it pop up again since the last time.
I don't recall where I seen that doc, I could be completely thinking of something else not too sure.
If you've flashed back to purely stock you can force it to check. Go to settings, about device, software update. What is your current firmware build? Were you using a custom rom when you got that?
Sent from my SGH-T999 using Tapatalk
No pop-up for me... T-Mobile user here..
I flashed to stock, but I'm not exactly sure the Odin files I used were up to date and couldn't check due to needing to flash cwm in order to get it to boot fully.
Had to clear dalvik for it to boot after 1hr of waiting.

Would be good if we can know what rom he was using(or still using)when that happend...
I'm just confused why. Did we lose some assist or did Samsung beef up there security?

Beefed up security that bricks the phone, devs are having trouble getting past it.
if it ever gets sorted out maybe will see some development.
Pp.
It isn't about security, it's all about Exynos and the fact we have zero source code for it because Samsung won't hand it over for obvious reasons, without that source code it's relatively difficult to build roms. Some devs have done it but with the cost of it being painstakingly time consuming and with the resulting Roms being still buggy and relatively unstable. Which brings me to the assumption that because the s5 had development or other Samsung devices had good development you assumed this one would follow suit however most of Samsungs previous devices were using Qualcomms Snapdragon processors which Qualcomms been known to be good with supplying it's source code.

Does your elders listen to salesman when looking for a gift? Since Samsung is aware of it how hard it it to put a banner before the upgrade warning the new user? Now back to Apple there products work, sounds like a hit a forum that thinks bugs and bad QA is fine.. Keep your wallets open sheep, samsung loves you.
