So does anybody have dust under the screen? I counted a few specks under mine
Oh man don't tell me this problem still plagues HTC devices.
Weird. None here. Been using it since Thursday and still dust free.

Unfortunately HTC still can't figure how to make phone that is dust free.
I have some. But it's a nonissue to me. I didn't notice it until I was shining a flashlight on it to make sure I got everything off before applying my screen protector. It doesn't affect the screen at all.
I don't have any on mine. Take it back for an exchange if it's bothering you.

Good luck they consider dust under the screen as a cosmetic issue so they might not let you swap it out.

Or tell them you want a refund if they give any trouble. They'd rather do an exchange than issue a refund. Never usually a problem though.
I had dust under mine... AT&T store claimed they couldn't see it, so being within my 30 days I returned it and bought a new one on the spot... they were pissed

haha, they didn't seem to even notice the note, kept turning it on and looking at it, sitting it on the counter... they totally ignored it.
That's pretty awesome. I had my Note on the table when I bought the One X too. The RSC just looked at it and shook his head.
They don't get any commission either if it's not a new contract.
Just really curious if anyone has gotten this update yet. I wanna get my hands on this phone so bad

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news but...you can't manually check for an update on this one. Sprint said that it will be pushed to your device when it's your turn. Which means...expect it some time later this week if you haven't gotten it already.

That's what we're waiting for. Without a doubt, there are people out there that have JB for their NS4Gs, but they wouldn't have any clue how to upload a zip, or wouldn't care for that matter. For them it's just a routine update, to iron out a bug or two. How many end users do you think even know what project butter is??? Probably just us.
Just make sure that if you get that update, to take your Logcat so someone on here can get the file from the URL.

Definitely looks like it's incredibly likely they corrected the trick to flash back to MK2 after updating like we could with the leaked 4.4 build.
Differences?

Do we know yet if there are any major differences between the leaked build and the official OTA build? If not, I would just flash the leaked one instead of going with the official AT&T route. If there aren't too many bugs I don't see any reasons not to.
Hopefully we'll get a new modem because the latest one was horrible for me.

No trick needed, they just decided not to increment the qfuse version with the MLD leak. It's almost guaranteed the official version will have an updated value and will not allow for reversion. We'll know for sure when I can get the new aboot.
Wow. This should be good news, but I find it incredibly depressing. I'm definitely leaving AT&T once my contract is up. This locked phone business just sucks.

It's only 31 minutes past midnight on the eastern seaboard. I wouldn't expect AT&T to push the update until much later in the day... say around 1:00 PM - 3:00 PM EST. Granted, that's only a guess on my part, they could be rolling it out as I type this.

So, lemme guess.
On the upside, we get KitKat, probably stable.
On the downside, it's AT&T, да им еба путката майна на тия лайнари.
I am no dev, but I selfishly and fervently wish the devs here unsurmountable amounts of luck rooting it.
I have a weird question regarding root....would there be a slight chance of getting an old exploit to work as we get more and more updates on our phones or are the old exploits patched up for good?

This is AT&T, and they want their phones locked "for consistent user experience", so it's highly likely they were so late delivering the update - "Lock&bloat!". Locking the loopholes.
After I check for the OTA, and it's still not up why does it say I can check back in 91 hours? It's usually 24 hrs......does that even really matter or can I check every hour if I wanted to?

Did you do the time change trick, then change the time back to network time? If so, those hours probably all added up (happened to me).

DO NOT ACCEPT OTA UPDATES!
if you like to hack and mod that is. If ralekdev and other devs find an exploit for boot loader unlock chances are it will be in the release firmware. Remember Loki on the S4. How many of you still have that?

I wish I could be done with VZW. Wish wish wish.. I just need the the coverage. I'm so tired of them. The only time I have to deal with them is when I have exchange a defected device.. Which happens every time I buy one but it's enough. I pay $90 a month for unlimited data/txt and 450 minutes. So I'm happy about that. Oh yeah, I deal with them when I want control of my device. They don't want me (or anyone) to have it.

The only update I've ever dealt with was last year with my S4 when it upgraded from the MDK baseband. I don't remember the original one, but I remember I lucked out big time and when I ruined my phone and got a new one when I turned it on it basically almost immediately did an OTA to which I put in airplane mode to stop. Now I'm not 100% sure but I don't remember having to click yes or OK for that OTA

But if people have already accepted OTA before now, they are OK, right? Because this exploit is very new so I doubt it would've been fixed before that. The first fix I see for linux was on June 4th and I have no idea how that translates to phone OTAs

Most likely you are correct. The OTA they have been pushing is older so it's likely that the exploit will still work. I wouldn't accept any at all however if you can avoid it. I'd imagine they'll push the patch for this soon.
How do we know if our phones have the update already? I got a new s5 and have had zero Ota pop up since I got it 3 weeks ago.

Dude that really sucks you can't get decent signal on sprint in your area. Sooner or later vzw and at&t are going to realize that their bs is driving their customers away in droves. It really has a special way of pissing me off knowing I dropped all this money on these phones and I can't even do what I want with them. It's almost like going to a furniture store and buying a recliner and then that store owner dictating certain times I'm allowed to sit in that recliner, what times I'm allowed to put the foot rest up, what I'm allowed to do while sitting in it, and then being forced to sit in it with the store owner at the same time, and then being forced to wait a year to be able to buy a new slipcover for it.
That's just my example of comparing to vzw and their locked bootloaders, insane bloatware, ridiculously long-delayed updates and ridiculous push notifications, (vvm anyone?).
I really hope you get the dev edition if you can't switch and then I hope you torture the ever living hell out of vzw with it!
Best of luck to you my friend!
