There are many many threads claiming the VRLK3 leaked ROM is the official Verizon ROM. However, I have downloaded it on official OTA and my version is VRLKE. Is there a rooted version of this build? Can we fix all announcements claiming incorrect official build?

I took the JB OTA after flashing back to stock and the build number is K3. Why don't you add a screenshot of what you're seeing.

I stand corrected. I spent the last hour reloading my phone twice over... It does say LK3... I feel pretty silly, but the email and Samsung website is jacked up. Grrr....

Hello, I am using Nexus S 2.3.6, from Malaysia.
A few of my Malaysian friends already receive Over The Air update of ICS from Google. However, although I do check for "Settings -> System updates" all the times, I always saw "Your system is currently up to date".
Is there any additional settings I need to do, in order to receive official update from Google? I prefer not to do it manually myself by downloading the ROM.
I believe that Google stop rolling out the ota.

I keep wondering when the ICS OTA update will be released. I'm using an i9020a on at&t and I'm still stuck on the 2.3.4 update. When I got to check for an update it says that the system is up to date, even though most people have 2.3.6 on their NS's.
It's probably quicker and less painful to just download and update to the latest ROM yourself, especially if you're starting to check for system updates on a daily or less-than-daily basis.

I've tried that, and I'm still stuck on 2.3.4. Can't even get 2.3.6, let alone ICS.
Might as well flash one of the many AOSP or CM9 ROMs posted out here to be honest. How fast is AT&T in approving ROM updates?
I'm pretty sure that's part of what's holding it up despite the Canadian 9020As out there...
I've flashed Kalimochoaz's CM9 alphas a few days ago and it works like a charm.

I don't know that it is at&t holding up the update, I think it's still on Google right now. I have considered flashing an ICS ROM on it, I just haven't had the time or motivation just yet.
The next OTA coming for Nexus-S is 4.0.5 so maybe they're waiting to release that...

I was just wondering if upgrading to Jelly Bean leaked version invalidates the verizon warranty? Also, when the official version comes out from Verizon (God knows when!), are we allowed to still get that OTA?
Thanks!
I would bet that if you odin'd the leaked version Verizon would say your warranty has been voided.... I can see how this could be argued both ways but this is not the official release and therefore not their problem if you ruin your phone. I'm not sure how the OTA thing will work? I'm on the leak and my phone will check for updates, says no update is available. I would guess you'd have to be on a valid Verizon release for the OTA to work. If You want to install the leak you can always Odin back to stock firmware... It's easy.

There would be 0 way they can tell you did it. The device status would still show normal, and I doubt anyone would have two s**ts anyway.

I don't know how exactly Samsung's OTA update system works but I assume it will be similar to how it was on moto. If you flash a leak and it isn't what they later publish as the official upgrade then it takes you off the "update path". When I was on my RAZR MAXX if you flashed one of the leaks and it didn't turn out to be the official update then you were off the update path and had to go to the last version of android that was released to get future OTA updates. When I was on the leak and the OTA was actually released my phone wouldn't show there was an update available until I went to the official release, it would search for updates and show that none were available when there actually was.

Hi
I downloaded and installed the Nordics JB Rom (N8000XXBLK2_N8000OXXBLJ2_NEE) without any issues. I can now also search for Samsung Updates again but it only tells me that I already run the latest version (my CSC is AUT / Switzerland). I was now wondering if I could get the corresponding OTA Update that some of you got after installing the JB Rom. I think I saw in another thread that it was another 400MB or so. Is there a way to download this and flash in Mobile Odin since this tool has an OTA update file option? I am confused because these files don't seem to show up on sammobile under OTA Updates (is their list incomplete?).
Thanks for any feedback!
Sam
Till now if have not seen any OTA after the JB update, but if it says there are no more updates then your device is registering and hence you should get OTA updates as and when they are out

Yes thats what I also assumed. As I already got the JB stock firmware and flashed it with ODIN (without waiting for it to be released officially for Switzerland) I was hoping that I could do the same also with the OTA update as I assume it will also be the same for all countries (as it is already with the base firmware).
How is the "OTA updates" section on sammobile to be understood if they don't show all updates? Is it broken? Or does it now show all of them by design?
The people received the ota have mistaken flashed ics because the thread creator posted wrong ics link instead of the jellybean one and he corrected the links after that

http://support.t-mobile.com/docs/DOC-4182 . This is a upgrade through kies for ICS. Same current baseband as we have now, but there saying it offers security improvements. Hopefully this is a small upgrade before Jelly Bean. If and when that happened we could update our blobs and most certainly run any AOSP 4.2.2 Rom.:good::fingers-crossed:

I don't see why not. The Blaze was released in March of 2012. The T989 also a Tmobile branded phone is running Jelly Bean and its older than our model. Presumably based on little differences and what nots it only makes sense for them to give the update. They are still marketing and selling the device so, yeah.(Hopefully)

I just checked... it isn't available via Kies (for me anyway). I'm sure someone else will get to it first but if not I'll get some flashable options together once I get my hands on it.
And if ever there was an excuse to update tweaked... here it is lol. Methinks this will be some work.

No requests, but if you or anybody could make something like ericmm did with ICS root, that would be awesome.
But shouldn't we be getting jelly bean because of that 18 month rule? I always wondered about that

Yep, shouldn't be an issue - I'll check again tonight, and like I said if no one else gets to it by the time I get my hands on it I'll post some stuff.
If I'm reading this right, the update to the new baseband is OTA if you are running non-rooted UVLH5 stock. There's nothing on samfirmware.com for this update to be available via KIES, so I would think that it's just OTA - that and it's only a 20 MB download. I'm going to go back to stock to see if this is OTA only and post my findings...
Nope. No OTA or KIES update available for me.

My interpretation of the T-Mobile info was that it was either - but you are right that it's not available via KIES currently so I could be wrong lol! No OTA has been pushed to the wifes phone yet, but that doesn't mean much for others of course.

It's just so weird to see it on Tmo but not on samfirmware. But yeah it says both... but I remember when ICS dropped it was on samfirmware almost immediately after release... could be because the ICS update was kies only... I'm not getting any OTA notification so... what gives..?

Maybe its based on region. Any west coast or Midwest users out there? It would be nice to confirm one user that has upgraded.
Edit: did you guys try updating or uninstall reinstall kies? I know its been updated since the last time I used it.

Finally, I was starting to wonder...
Official beta build was pulled directly from the phone that downloaded the OTA update. These are not the leaked builds like before but rather official beta ota builds pushed by Samsung.
This post will be updated a soon as new official builds will be available.
Beta 1/ZRK9:
This OTA file can be flashed directly from recovery but user needs to be on specific build. In this case user must be on Latest Oreo Firmware ARJ2
ARJ2 to ZRK9: https://mega.nz/#!5jxj2ALT!FdMxcXb6xtA63WDmsPktphHnrJFVjll8gEd-h4jGrMU
Beta 2/ZRKJ:
This OTA file can be flashed directly from recovery but user needs to be on specific build. In this case user must be on Beta 1 (ZRK9)
ZRK9 to ZRKJ: https://mega.nz/#!Y7Q3xKJB!G8o_Wwj-cdUvPlrJNsX9JCpQgkPa3otBJ_yg9YSq27A
Hotfix1(ZRKJ-to-ZRKP)/ZRKP:

ZRKJ to ZRKP: https://mega.nz/#!Mu4xVYqI!wdMBsL5iwKjsMkFoMdtyy1sNwlDEJkfVTes-qYQqFdg
Beta 3/ZRL5:
This OTA file can be flashed directly from recovery but user needs to be on specific build. In this case user must be on Hotfix 1 (ZRKP)
ZRKP to ZRL5: https://mega.nz/#!o3A3AS6Z!pOr4BS9ViujK3ToyuD0WW-k9Dkw9XC_X7kkwc0-Xi1s
Beta 4/ZRLG:

ZRL5 to ZRLG: https://mega.nz/#!guYTRSwZ!oSUDSXx1Zl58RcMdxrYu2J9pAE8tmyMHab06xPDvNXM
Note: All the future builds will be incremental and can only be flashed from specific pie build to another. For example Beta 2 will be flashable from Beta 1. Users wont have to plash back to Oreo and than flash next pie builds like when leaked builds were available.
This is how updates are going to be:
ARJ2--> Beta 1 (ZRK9) --> Beta 2 --> Beta 3 --> Beta 4 .........................................
Please let me know if anyone runs into any issue while flashing the firmwares. I have already tested the files with few other folks and everything works fine, there is no issue while flashing them.
You are the best, I'm on this build, downloading right now. Thanks:fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:

Probably the former, since you need to register in Samsung+ app to get updates as they get pushed out by Samsung.
Hopefully this thread will be updated once every new firmware pushes, since my Samsung + app(beta) never allowed me to register, it just won't even if i press register button for thousand times.
