Official KitKat 4.4.2 OTA Released (Sprint) - Galaxy Note 3 General

Upgrade notice popped up and my device automatically downloaded the firmware to be able to upgrade.
Process ran smoothly... auto reboot, upgrade running, etc.
In case someone didn't realize: this is the official stock (unrooted) upgrade.
Edit- Added pics after upgrade.

Noticed
Lock screen with new camera icon and a white battery icon instead of green. I believe some tweaks are in order...

This update came out last week. Wonder why your update came late

I've talked to some other note 3 users (with reliable networks) and they haven't gotten it oddly enough.

I know sprint rolling out the update in stages but it's odd that it would take that long. Have u checked the sprint note 3 forums?

Yep looks like people aren't all getting them at the same time. Should be an ease in thing.

[Q] New OTA on the way?

Just decided to check for an update because of some of the rumors going around and after I checked I got the old "Service Unavailable" last time this happened the 7/8 update happened the next day so could a new ota be on the way???

Whats weird is yesterday early morning I looked for a update and it said it there was but then I had to take a phone , lost signal and it never came up again.
Yesterday Slayher tweeted that the next tb rom fixes all known, root exploits. I would guess that for him to say something as a matter of fact like that would indicate someone has a leak and that it's already confirmed to be true.

The way Check Updates responds to your queries has nothing to do with an OTA coming out soon. Posting speculation on it is a waste of time, same as the twenty other times I have seen a thread on this. Wait for someone with a proven track record of reliability to post that one is coming.

If I'm not mistaken does it even matter? I thought the x.x.2 update was basically patches for the nexus 7 with an update for power management and then just very minor updates to the rest

What makes it important to us, is the changes Samsung made to the TouchWIZ framework in 4.1.2:
Multi-View Multitasking - The ability to run two different apps simultaneously on one screen.

Do any of the US variants even have that? Pretty sure they reserved that for just the international version and the note 2 because of the quad core.

I saw an article from tom's hardware about the Samsung suite pack. It should be released later on. The international one, I believe is what got the updated features.

Well, we don't have any 4.1.2 US variant builds yet (even leaks), so it's hard to say whether or not we will get the Multitasking built in. What is likely though, is that we will get the framework changes that support it (even if Samsung doesn't provide the actual application to do it). In that case, it will be a simple port to get it up and running.

I'm pretty sure we'll get it. There's lots of stuff in the framework that's associated with the multi-view feature such as images and XML files so it's a safe bet that it'll come to the US variants.
Regarding multi view, scott on the clean rom forum said its definitely in the framework, but its "turned off" in almost 180 something files, he said it would be painstakingly time consuming , byt someone with the time and knowledge could definitely turn it on.

I highly doubt that it will come to Verizon anytime this year... which is a shame
LOL Verizon getting 4.1.2
WOW you have your hopes high, they still haven't released 4.1.1. and I'm using a leaked version and there are still bugs in it. I highly doubt we will see 4.1.2 before April.
LOL at some of the funny comments - I'm sure if its coming to the US, Verizon will get it too - seriously - I can't stop laughing.
Yeapppp! Still don't even have jellybean update. Lol
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda app-developers app
4.1.2 is unlikely. Support docs have started shipping out, and K3 is the official Verizon build #, so the K3 we're seeing around here should be what's pushed out via the OTA when it starts:

Friday for 4.1.1 But maybe we can get the leak of 4.1.2 this year.

Anyone know when we're getting 4.4.2?

Any idea when we'll be getting the 4.4.2 update? I'm sick of exchange not working and USB otg function being broken. If these problems were fixed this phone would be more bearable not having root.
If anyone has news on this it'd be greatly appreciated.

Thanks, was hoping maybe someone has heard something. The moto x and g both have 4.4.2 so our droid lineup is left awaiting the update
Sent from my XT1080 using XDA Premium
For the last two OTAs, the Droids didn't see a soak test until 5 to 6 weeks after the first X received the OTA, and definitely after all of the US carriers had the OTA. Verizon and AT&T Moto X phones still don't have the OTA, and it's only been a couple of weeks since the unlocked X got 4.4.2, so I'd just relax until the second week of March or so, if history repeats itself.
The G never had 4.4 - it went from 4.3 to 4.4.2, probably because Moto started working on the update after 4.4.2 was released. But, really, the X and the G are Moto's flagship phones. I think the Droids will always lag those two for updates.

Every device has one of these threads where people whine that the oem isn't providing ETA of the next update as if there's a requirement for them to tell you. Calm down and enjoy your device and know it will be updated when it's ready. If you're in a hurry buy a nexus.

I do enjoy my device, aside from the known bugs which are a constant annoyance. The Moto G and X have received the update so obviously the question arises is it in the works for the Droids..
No there's not a requirement for them to say, that's why people ask. Its a simple question, not "whining".

I'm running 4.4.2 right now topsnake ported it from the moto x you need an unlocked boot loader but runs great.
What are the significant differences from 4.2.2 >4.4 >4.4.2?
I just went to 4.4 and haven't seen anything too noticeable. I think a few of my games play better. But some apps like eBay are acting a little wonky.
I guess the UI is a little snappier.

There have been changelogs posted. I think that we can look at the Moto X changelog for 4.4.2 to see what the Droids might get from 4.4.2. Not much - mostly bug fixes (battery life problems, exchange mail sync problems I think.)
4.4 changes were mostly internal stuff. BT 4.0 and BT LE devices are now supported. Emulated secure element for NFC, so Google Wallet tap to pay now works. Full screen mode. Camera touch to focus update. There are now printing options. The rest of the stuff in the changelog about the Gallery app is updated, since the gallery app has been updated a couple of times since then. There are also updates to Touchless Controls and Active Display. And a bug with the home key, that has the phone respond as if you pressed the home key twice.
4.4 changelog: https://motorola-global-portal.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/97696
4.4.2: http://support.verizonwireless.com/dam/support/pdf/system_update/moto-x.pdf
(Strangely, the update changelog on VZW's site has been pulled and is now showing the update for the first OTA, 12.7.7, that came with the phone last August.)

Is Verizon ever going to update

Perfectly good phone. Still no lollipop for it yet. Look of things. This project just fell right off the table. Like the Verizon 12.2 pro tablet.. My day with Samsung products about to come to end.. HTC was the best device I ever owned. Nexus are made way to cheap and over priced.
I'm starting to feel the same way about this note edge.... But I disagree with the nexus stuff, ever since before the nexus 6 they were very inexpensive. Back when I was strictly HTC, they sucked at releasing updates.
I am disappointed with Verizon.. other Note Edge owners on other networks have received lollipop.
Trust me do not get the lollipop.

I've been with an android phone since day one (currently on my 7th Android phone.. plus 4 different Tablets).. and everytime Google has an update you hear folks saying Don't upgrade.. don't upgrade. I'm running Lollipop on a tablet that came with Honeycomb 3.0 and it works well.

Lollipop isn't bad
Worked fine on my Note 4. The complaints were from people who didn't clear cache or factory reset after the update. Other than the new camera interface and app complaints, it is a worthwhile update.

yeah i check for updates everyday and get pissed off all over again
Just spoke with a rep from Samsung
I called again to complain to Verizon about the lack of updates to the Noted Edge. She called Samsung as if to push the blame off on them as to why the release is not available. The Rep said that it was Verizon that hasn't set a release date. She informed me that if I take my phone to a Best Buy and have someone from their Samsung experience update it for me. She said they have a tool to force the update. Is this true? has anyone done this? Or is she full of it?
I'd also like to know if this is true? If so, I'll be there later today doing it.
