Is it the MG1 firmware?
Updated. It is in fact MG1. I don't know if it locks the bootloader though. There is a new "Secure boot status" "type: Samsung" in about device.
Maybe I shouldn't have updated!
Update:
Like the update that has hit other countries before, it adds app2sd support. SEEMS smoother, i. e. no stutter going back to home screen etc. (but is it just a placebo effect?!)

I highly doubt it locks the boot loader. That's a carrier thing. And Canadian version is luckily always boot loader unlocked. That status is about knox

Funny, me too (wrt placebo effect) It does seem to boot up the camera quicker and launch the gallery app better. Rooted to get my multi-window app back and everything is looking good.
I can confirm that Chainfire's CF-Root provides you with root access again after installing this update. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2293800
Please make sure you thank Chainfire for his effort.
As I use my camera a fair bit, it's great to see that it launches must faster and is far smoother. I can also confirm that you can now move apps to your SD card.

Well, in that case, I guess I didn't need to hurry and root/unlock just now in the fear that I'd be blocked off forever.

I can confirm 100% you will have no issues with it. I look like a newbish person here as I don't come on xda much. I just thought I'd spread the love over here. I'm usually over @ Rootz.
http://rootzwiki.com/user/19244-goose306/
I don't like to pull this card, but hopefully you see I have enough reps over there to at least know what I'm talking about
That being said all its going to really do is give you a better radio and patch the no sim issue, and install more bloat (Verizon Remote Access) and dumb down your search abilities. So its about 50/50 as far as benefits. But if you don't like it you can ODIN back to previous firmware versions anyways, so it really isn't that big of a deal. The best benefit you could have would be to root it, unlock it, block the OTA, then install the new radio separately. This will get you the benefit of the new radio and patching the no sim error but without the new Verizon bloat and without the neutered search capability. Best of both worlds.
If you plan on flashing ROMs about the only thing you will be keeping from this OTA going forward will be the new radio. So it doesn't really make a lick of difference either way as the radio can be flashed separately as discussed.

Thanks, I said f'k it and rooted and unlocked. Don't plan on flashing anything now because am really enjoying this Rom stock but when we get a Verizon JB leak I want to make sure I can install it. We will probably see a leak months before a release.

Which means VZW probably has some trickery in this to permalock the bootloader, so be careful.
Can anybody please check what languages does 4.3 have and if they're any different from 4.1.2? As we won't have root as of now, I'm afraid to lose support of one specific language enabled by Language Enabler. Thanks in advance!

Pretty much. I tried to update and it failed. I'm rooted on stock TW and unlocked. Tried a few things and I can't even get back to a stock unrooted rom
I guess I'll wait for a rooted rom.
I just updated my samsung galaxy s3 to jellybean 4.3 and really don't like the update. I would like to revert back to the official stock firmware that came before this 4.3 update. Can anyone tell me where I can download the firmware? Unfortunately all the links I found were not working.
From what I understand, the new bootloader included in the update makes reversion impossible.
As of today, attempting to revert will brick you.

Let's just say I had a lapse in judgement. I tried to flash a stock 4.1.2 image after taking the OTA update to 4.3. (Yeah, I know.) I then tried to flash 4.1.1, and then to the stock 4.0.4, which finally worked. I have tried flashing a 4.3 update file from the stock recovery, but it won't load since it says it's expecting to update files from 4.1.2, not 4.0.4.
Any suggestions?

Did you root the non-dev or dev version?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but trltetmo is for T-Mobile, isn't it?
FYI - this method does not work on retail phones . . . at least for me.
We probably won't see root until our boot loader is unlocked by Verizon.
Mine is dev and was a quick easy root exactly as stated.

Quick question: can I extract an app from the stock Verizon firmware on sammobile?
I think one of the Verizon apps I deleted may be causing this.

I froze or Uninstalled the same things with titanium without any problems. I would believe you could get them from a stock rom. Question for you....... is your network set up correctly? Mine was on Global but I switched to LTE/CDMA.

It's on global but it's been that way this whole time. I tried switching to LTE/CDMA also and it didn't fix anything. I tried a "factory reset" but as you can imagine nothing happened. It rebooted to twrp and deleted all my apps/accounts. But nothing got reinstalled lol. Also on sammobile the link for the Verizon stock is broken all I get is a 404 when I click it... now I've done it lol.
Gonna try this method on Tuesday, when I get mine...Thx!

So will this work for the retail version too or only the dev edition? Thanks for any clarification! :fingers-crossed:

Can you use my backups? I have the stock and the rooted. I will send them to you if you want to recover with them. Maybe check your Sim card too.

Thank you! It was what I dreaded, but I'll keep hope alive! lol UGH.
Verizon has spent a ton of money locking down their bootloaders, there has been a bounty for the galaxy s4 bootloader for quite some time now (think we are in the third year or more) even if root comes to the retail version (hard to see that since the only root methods currently involve flashing something with odin) it is even less likely any of them will see custom roms. that is unless someone picks up the safestrap project as i last heard it was dropped. Dev editions are going to be the new norm for anyone on verizon, gonna be the only way to get custom anythings.
that said has anyone been able to extract their stock recovery or make a backup of the stock image from their dev edition? at this point i'd be like forever your BFF if you could get me back to stock since KIES wont work and samsung support doesnt even know the Developer Edition is on sale yet...... let along can they get me a stock recovery image lol....
also i just inboxed you @ffr3245 i am not sure if ti will work, but at this point i'd try just about anything.
I can not get these to upload!!! Anyways, I found docugod's post where he had uploaded his recovery image which is stock without root from Note Edge Developer Ed. Thanks go to him. With that being said, you should not have any problems using that recovery image. But as always do so at your own risk. And for anyone else reading.......This is for the Note Edge DEVELOPER EDITION, it is NOT for the retail Verizon one.

Works after update
Works here too
Awesome. Thank you!
So what's this update anyways?
Is this the newer version of the software that first got released in Singapore a week or 2 ago? I'm curious because of the oj6 ending of our update and oj4
I am stock with root, can't update so in order to get the update I have to flash stock kernel ?
Ive noticed if your playing a video you can keep it in its own window, and still scroll threw other applications.

I feel like the new update is draining battery faster!

So far I think its pretty good. With 15 hours of standby, 1 hr SOT with 4g always on only used 15% so far.
Lost sprint spark startup screen, phone is sluggish, and reception is much worse than before update.
