My daughter's phone this morning had an update from T-Mobile. I told her not to install it, as it may revoke root.
She clicked on it (kids....), but luckily it says it's been post-poned until the 22nd (tomorrow)..
Just wondering if anyone has any idea what it is?
I know any OTA updates may potentiall revoke root, but just wondering if anyone else has gotten this.
The worst it could do is overwrite your root, but it wouldn't take that ability away, you would just need to re-root it after the update was completed. I heard some rumors that KJ2 was being pushed out as an official update, but I'm not entirely sure.
It's 100% true or i wouldn't have posted it. I got the update via Kies. It's coming OTA soon.

Whats KJ2?
Also im running Gingerbreak on it, if it revokes the root, would the thing even boot up?
I got it today. No obvious changes but it does seem to work a bit smoother.
Gingerbreak? you mean GingerClone? Gingerbreak is the rooting method for Gingerbread (2.3).
KD1 was the original stock firmware, then they pushed KG2 as an update, and the latest update is KJ2, which includes some bugfixes and not many other changes.
You can still root after the update. KJ2 is seriously worth it. The phone runs so smoothly now. Although, I still think this is TM's way of staving us off until they release GB. XD

Sorry, you are correct
So it's safe to install the update? I'll tell her to do it as soon as I get home.
is anything else different? I generally try to let others test the waters first, since the last "update" merely removed a useful shortcut function and added Google Books as bloat.

You wont notice anything different except maybe better performance. You should do it.

I went ahead and grabbed the update off Kies. So far, it looks like the persistent memory leak issues have been addressed in the Touchwiz/Zipwip software package. Also, my battery performance has returned to what I expected with KD1 (given my device's configuration).
I haven't encountered any drawbacks to upgrading. No reason to stick with KG2 or KD1 at this point--unless you fell in love with a custom...

I am running gingerclone as well, i got the notice for the update but postponed it, I didn't know if it would be safe to run since i wasn't on a stock rom, I got tired of seeing the update icon so i let it run, it failed.
The phone rebooted and I have not seen the update notice again.
I have TouchMIUIwiz v3 and I also ran the update after getting sick of the constant reminder and icon. It failed and disappears for a few days then come back. I've repeated the process a few times now.
Update installed fine for her and nothing is too different. Safe to go.
It won't work unless your on a completly stock and unmodified rom.

If only that would make it stop bothering me to run an update that will constantly fail every few days.
So no one knows how for rooted roms to turn off the update service?

There is a minor update coming....sucks it isn't ICS, but they tend to push out these updates just before a major upgrade...so fingers crossed.
http://support.t-mobile.com/docs/DOC-4182
Whether or not it is worth installing, though....and it does look like your phone has to be unrooted.

I've kept my phone on its stock ROM and unrooted, and it looks like my waiting finally paid off! Hoping you're right, and that this is a pre-req for the upcoming ICS release. Maybe this will coincide with the T-mo release of the Blaze Q (QWERTY version of the Blaze 4G)?
Also, has this update gone live yet? I'm using WiFi at the moment and so far I get a message saying there isn't an update available from the server
Can someone confirm if I have to be unrooted?

I put my sim into the blaze and nothing no update ota yet lol if anyone gets it before midnight hit me up on a PM
if not then tomorrow it goes live on mini kies and i'll just download it there
This is why I always flash recovery first and run a backup of stock prior to rooting. I will backup where I am now and check to see if there's anything to this update.
This also kind of confirms that ICS will be coming soon as stated... kinda exciting!

Just wanted to point out, this made it to tmonews:
http://www.tmonews.com/2012/07/sams...pdate-prepares-device-for-ice-cream-sandwich/
"We saw something very similar for the Galaxy S II as a small maintenance update arrived a few weeks before Ice Cream Sandwich. We hope that same scenario plays out here as well. Stay tuned for Ice Cream Sandwich Blaze 4G owners."
Huh... How do I revert to Stock unrooted? Also, do I HAVE to update to install future custom ICS ROMs? I'd rather just wait until the source code is released ans I'll just install a Stock custom ROM. I need clarification. Because I don't feel like reverting to Touchwiz -_-

just because u said u don't like touchwiz made me answer this more
to return to unrooted stock you need to use the stock LB7 tar file and the blaze.pit file and Odin back to stock
I beliieve k0nane made a good guide for that on dev forum.
And you can always wait as soon as Kies updates tomorrow with LF4 i'll download and decrypt it and use it for base no my build 5 for dknight which is going to add some awesome stuff on top of the already awesome stuff

Yay! So I'll skip the 'back to Root' phase for that dumb small update and just wait until you release your updated one. I'll just have to flash it which is easier lol.

Update is live through Kies as of 9am cst. You lose CWM through the update and cannot be rooted.
So will the current CWM and rooting methods be ok to be used again? I hate bloat
How long did it take for the update to work via Kies?
I started the firmware download, and once the download finished Kies kind of.. froze. Didn't see any activity in task manager, phone didn't show anything besides the normal home screen. Disconnected the phone with no ill effects fortunately.
Probably because I'm running Windows 8 release preview.. will try on my other Windows 7 rig
Anyone else receive a software update for their Wifi note? Got the notify at around 2:30 am today, 42Mb download. Im on UEALH2 already. Not sure what the update is.
I cant install the update because it reboots and goes into CWM recovery where it asks to allow unsigned/unverified package, and then fails to update.

Update available 75.51 MB
I am on N8013UEALGB
I am unrooted and was able to install this 50 MB update. So far I see no changes at all. S-Note issues that appeared after last update (automatic brightness increase) still persist. I think this update is laying the groundwork for a future Jelly Bean update.
Moves firmware to UEALI3 now.
Update was 75.51mb.
Stability and performance improvements, was what the update message said... checking out now.

Updated here just now. It was about 40 mb also coming from H2. Restored root with out a problem. Just make sure if you replaced anything, put it back before updating. I've had issues updating my galaxay s3 from OTA because I modified something.
Huh. Assuming the JB OTA is somewhere close at hand, I wonder why they are bothering with this small update?

Could be prep for it.:laugh:
My tablet sits at 100% for a minute or 2. Then it restarts and starts over again. I was rooted but other people report that they were also and had no problem. Any tips? I forgot to backup a note where i just jotted down some info i needed. Was hoping to be able to get that note off the tablet before i try and recover with ODIN. Can't believe i didn't back up the note first.
Update-installed original firmware through ODIN all my files intact and then updated no problem.
Darn, saw the update this morning and was hoping it was JB. I guess this is probably the update that they had pulled from their system earlier after fixing whatever was causing the loss of S-pen functionality that happened to some people after that update. I never got that one so it will be good to get the 64gb SD card support that came with it as well as the fix for the keyboard automatically coming up when exiting an app that was started from a folder.
weird that there are 2 different size updates. 42.07mb here and I am on LH2
Just updated ...don't seem to see any improvements. I just hope jelly bean is around the corner !

weird. I fail at 25%, no matter what. even did a Factory Reset. It tells me to try Kies. Kies says I am up to date. hehe
Guess I will figure it out at work
I updated and it appears to be the same update that was released about a month ago and then quickly pulled after problems with the S-pen were reported by some people. I believe the biggest change from that update was added functionality for formating 64gb cards on the tablet itself.

Anyone do the update? My Note 10.1 wifi got an OTA notification as well. Currently on stock 4.1.2. Anyone know consists of this update? My choices are, Later/Install All/Install....curious...but not enough to hit the trigger. :laugh:
This is interesting. Anyone knows what Samsung packed into that update? If you've already rooted, i think it's much safer to wait until the update is added to your favorite custom ROM.
That's kinda the issue, she likes the stock ROM. Maybe I'll pull the update file and look into what's in there tomorrow.

Minor UI stuff, stuff runs a little smoother, but I haven't seen anything major.
HOWEVER it de-roots you, and none of the usual suspects have worked. I originally rooted using Framaroot, and it does not work. So waiting with baited breath for someone to get around to fixing that problem. :laugh:

As usual kids, if you've rooted and put on a custom recovery or otherwise modified your ROM, DO NOT UPDATE.
And if you plan on rooting in the future, I also advise you to not update. See if the new version can be rooted with the current tools. Loki and the adb exploit have changed on some of the later versions.
LOL
Updating from 10o to 10q.
I don't have high hope seeing KK anytime soon.
Let's see.
Anyone have the radio from the update? I read that there is a new baseband...

Just when i was about to root and install a custom rom too....i'll see how this version is. Hopefully it fixes the battery drain AT&T background apps have been causing.
Anyone know how to turn off the auto update? I just downloaded like 750mb without realizing it. That's not cool.

Auto Download & Install
My G2 automatically downloaded this update and tried to install it, but caused a boot-loop with TWRP.
It was charging in another room so I had not accepted any requests to update, if there were any.
It is fixed, but I am angry that it downloaded and attempted to INSTALL the update on its own.
This is true!!! Only message I got was installing in 30 sec
Sent from my LG-D800 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
the update only has the support for future updates for the g2,meaning, that it is most likely setting up for the 4.4 update. who knows when thats gonna happen though. hopefully soon
I guess this explains why my phone mysteriously booted into TWRP and i went into a bootloop while the phone was in my pocket during a meeting. I was able to fix it by following this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2451696 Hope this helps anyone in need.
