Probably KD1 if you're not on it already.
Some people were getting delayed OTA updates, and even a few reports of delayed ODIN updates are coming in too.
If it's rooted, than you are able to receive OTA updates, as long as you HAVE NOT FROZEN OR REMOVED ANY STOCK APPLICATIONS.
Good luck.
If you find you're already on KD1 or this is gingerbread, we'd appreciate an update.

I just received this update as well. Not sure what it is, but Ill install it tomorrow since my battery is too low right now. KD1 you say? shame I already have it...

I started a thread yesterday afternoon about this, it is an update for.offical KD1. Its not gingerbread. If you dont get the OTA update you can manually install through Kies, but be advised you will lose root, but thats a one click fix anyway....

Woke up this morning with an update but it seems I keep getting this error....
"the application device management (process com.wssyncmldm) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again."
I remember deleting FOTA and uninstalling/freezing apps that I wasn't using but I don't know what else can be done.... or what I need to unfreeze to get this update?
Can someone walk me thru the process ... i know someone said kies and then re-root?
Sorry n00b here lol

too many threads about the same thing.
again, it's old news. and the update works.

I've got the OTA update completed but what's with this Doubletwist thingy with Airsync thingy. I remember seeing a post that somebody left saying their phone got laggy after the update and it does seemed little laggy after the update. But got the OTA without any issue even though my phone is rooted.

those came stock on my phone. maybe you had an even older software.
doubletwist is a music app that syncs with iTunes etc.
airtwist is a companion software to doubletwist allowing you to sync the music OTA on your own wifi network.
get rid of em if you don't use them.

I tried updating but it said it failed. Possibly because I am already on KD1...

i wonder why you even got notified. lol.

Easy, forget OTA update and flash KD1 through odin. That way, you do not run into any issues being rooted and have frozen/deleted Bloatware.

if your rooted and dont care about the updates del the device managment ,, i did that and it fixed the error but you cant use t mobile up dates no more

MOD, PLEASE DELETE... OLD NEWS[Q] uvkg6???

MOD... PLEASE DELETE... OLD NEWS NOW......
..Ok... broke my vibrant and T-Mo sent me a sgs 4g.... I held out maybe 6 hours (sleep) before rooting/kernel/bln etc. it's been 5 days now.
Today I fired up the kies mini and it says upgrade avail.... T959uvkg6 with date of 11/07/29...
So, few questions.
Is it an gingerbread???
Has anyone rooted/lagfix/debloat/voodoo sound etc with this??
Would hate to go back to slow bloated life without voodoo sound & BLN...
Should be gingerbread does it say android versoin 2.3.4? This could be great news
Sent from my SGH-T959V using XDA Premium App
Wound up trying kies to update my phone but it knows I don't have my phone stock, so it refused to upgrade. Too lazy to flash my phone right now, so I'll wait until someone else confirms this.
Pretty awesome news though!
Apparently it is only up for some people. My kies says that I have the latest version with KD1, so apparently it's not going out for everyone.
ok... I'll bite.... voodoo disabled, stock kernel swapped, made a back up of kd1, copied whole sd card to computer & hit the "I agree" button on the mini kies.... downloading binary files right now..... fingers crossed that this doesn't turn bad like the first Vibrant upgrade....
Oh, heh. I'm a moron. I may have unrooted, but I still had voodoo enabled and Bali 3.3 running. I guess I should let people who know what they are doing do this first...

New Download screen

I flashed back to stock this morning to test something and noticed there was a 19Mb update. After updating I rebooted the phone and checked a few more times to make sure there were no more updates. When I went into 'Download' to flash a new rom this is the screen I was presented with. After I chose to enter to Download mode that was the 2nd screen I had. Just thought it was funny and would share.

Removing the download for the bootloaders so people won't try flashing them and brick devices left and right. They were only intended for serious devs who know what they are doing. Sorry.
Could you also upload the whole update package? Thanks for the bootloaders.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using XDA App
Considering that we haven't ever been able to flash dumped BLs from the Rogers ROM, having the update package to look at would be highly beneficial to figure out how to flash the bootloaders.
This is a similar download mode screen to the SGSII - keeping count of how many custom ROMS you run/flash. Keeping in mind if you phone needs to go some where to be serviced there maybe a document of how they can check this counter. A USB JIG cleared this on the SGSII & my jig works fine on my Infuse so I can imagine it will still clear it.

If that's the reason, then that's a REALLY smart way to track if you flash a custom "OS", as Samsung would say.
If it's as simple as using a USB JIG to clear it, then we should be in the clear.
Well i guess this finally gives me a reason to pick one up......

I was curious about this, thanks for the info!
Also in case anyone wants to know, after flashing the leaked GB with this BL the download screen still reports official Samsung Binary as the current.
This is just a short term observation: when I flashed the leaked GB with the old BL I got hard reboots when apps accessed GPS (speed test, maps, co pilot) 1 out of 10 times. With these BL's I am at 18 hours using all of those apps without any reboots. Though it could have just been reflashing that fixed it. I did not use TB or anything to restore app data usher time, both times I went back to stock first.

Typically any Official update will break #SU access and sometimes cause a serious headache in the process.
If you are rooted, do not apply the update. Just wait for a kitchen baked variant to be released.

maybe fixes visual voicemail bug?
For about 6 weeks I've been having issues with the stock visual voicemail app force-closing every time I tried to use it. I tried going into the app's settings area and clearing its data, then re-enabling it in the caller app, all to no avail.
I just installed this update and it looks like my VVM is working again, so I'm hoping this was indeed a known issue and was fixed.
(FTR, I'm not sure that a factory reset before the update wouldn't have fixed the problem, but I didn't feel like re-installing all my apps so I let it go and just used the old-school voicemail number for a while.)
Is there anyway possible for me to get the update because i had s-off and then i wanted to unroot but i used gfree so i had to use gfree and ran into a crap load of problems leaving me right now with s-off and no root permissions . i need to get a new mytouch because this one randomly restarts and i cant send in one with s-off... can anyone help me out?
