I just received an email from Samsung stating that the official OTA for the Verizon GS III bas been released, and the baseband for it is VRLKE. Hopefully this fixes some of the bugs that have seen in the previous jelly bean leaks that we have received.

Ummm...maybe you should take a peek at what has been posted in the forums before you start a new thread. It may have been posted XXXX times before. Thanks!

You may want to read we are on BLK3. The article says BLKE! So that would mean this is another update of its true.

It also says the update will be 62mb. How big was the K3 update?
Seeing as I just received the same email, maybe there is some truth to this...or Samsung is trolling us....u mad, bro?

K3 was 400mb as it was the initial update. 62mb for bug fixes sounds about right
Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk 2
I wonder if there's some typos going on here? Wasn't the HE update around that size? Maybe they're mixing up the K3 and the HE updates? Bug fixes already would be really fast.
I'm at verizon right now so I will ask about this..... They typically know nothing though.

They're still on my Gmail but phone will not re-sync contacts from gmail.

is it the KE update?
Other than that, just delete your google account & re-add it.

Try it again. You may have been down a rev on ICS. Since these are differential upgrades: If you're on A, you have to be on B before you can go to C.

I was looking at the market and did a google search of it. It appears to be a Russian telematics company and just is appearing on certain phones as a mistake (i'm assuming). They have other apps in the market that are for Russian Subscribers.
To be safe, just delete it or freeze it with titanium backup.

MTC is simply trying to update as the system email apk that reared its head with the ICS leak. You can freeze it, uninstall it, whatever.
Same if you see Testfile, which is associated with Allshare, uninstall allshare, it goes away.
Since Verizon is going to release a new update soon is there anyway we can keep root on update or should I just flash the stock image to prevent any problems?
dont flash any update till the devs approve as the update may bork our unlocked bootloader method.
Agreed, you may have difficulty rooting after the update. There will be an active version of the OTA jb released here. Stock one and modified ones. Plus you could be waiting a long time for vzw to release it. We'll probably have it well before everyone else.

Either it's your build.prop OR its the recovery cuz that's an outdated CWM. You'll need to update it to at least CWM 6.0.4.x to flash any KitKat rom. Just triple check that you see SCH-I535 d2vzw in the build.prop (which is in /System) before going further. I find it hard to believe the seller perfectly replaced the sticker behind the battery.

Could be mistaken, but that looks like a knockoff s3 to me.
edit: Sticker looks wrong (no samsung logo), just doesn't look right and it's not making sense why it's acting like that. If you bought the phone for cheap on Ebay then it makes sense for it to be a fake. Fake one looks very similar to the real thing.

Did you put the black part on your sticker? I crossed out the imei and bar code on mine, but yours definitely looks different.

I don't know what your plans are for this phone now, but I was just thinking, they are building roms for d2lte (I tried cm11 and vanir, both kitkat). The d2lte builds are the same for all carriers, meaning you don't have to select a Rom file specific for your carrier. Maybe try flashing one of those? imho, vanir is pretty sweet.
