sorry for starting a new thread on this. but i tried reading all OTA threads and still confuse
so the new update is the gingerbread? i thought ginger bread is 2.3 ?
also besides wifi calling and tethering, what else is added after the update?
thank you
again, sorry for my noobness
Gingerbread hasn't been released yet. It was rumored to be release with the nexus "n" from samsung. This update included a new radio for better connection, wifi calling, wifi tethering, and a couple of bugs such as no lock screen noise.

Opps...its not 2.3 yes and it brings everything stated above, but I believe it fixed the random reboot problem also...I work in a building where I get up to only 2 bars of reception if that and my G2 would constantly reboot all day but today I did not have 1 reboot...we'll see how it goes these next few days...

You could 'try' going to your phones dialpad and entering *#*#2432546#*#* and see if it offers it again, or shows up under about phone - system updates.
If not, then you may want to install it manually. There are plenty of good instructions all over this board and the web on how to do that.

What exactly does putting that in the dial pad do? My update also disappeared and when I click those numbers it says Checkin succeeded. I go to phone and system updates and it says my phone is up to date -_-
I noticed when I check under build number it says 1.19.531.1
Should I just try to do a manual update?

Yeah if the checkin doesn't work then do the manual update.
The checkin basically asks Google servers if there are any updates pending for your phone. But they set lists and if you are not on it at the time it won't offer the update.
I did the manual update and it worked just fine. Was easy and didn't take long. Just make sure not to mess with your phone while it is updating. Some people see the green update screen and pull battery after a few mins.

Installed the "official" update that was hosted on Google's servers, which worked like a charm... but...
The camera won't boot up? The phone doesn't seem to be running any faster thus far, even after moving all possible applications to the SD card. Also, the gallery shows no images.
When I hold down the camera button, or select the camera application, the phone vibrates once (to tell you the camera's booting up), the screen turns black, vibrates three times quickly, and flashes the force close screen instantaneously and returns to the home screen.
Hmmm....
I almost forgot to add: I still have the Touchwiz default issue, that is, the OS prompting me to set a default every so often when I hit the home button. I think I might have to wipe the phone.
I had similar problems so I wiped and did a clean install with Odin and now it works great!

weatherbug elite widget
i like the weatherbug elite app and widget, and for some reason the widget will not appear at all, since i updated.
I am in the process of backing up my stuff to do a factory reset to see if that solves the problem. I was waiting until this update was released before rooting. Is there an OCLF for this update?
i would suggest odining back to DI18 then odining http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=853209 see if this fixes your problems, i have 0 bugs with DK28.
After the factory reset, everything is working okay. I noticed that some of the prompts have strange translations, particularly when accessing the Firmware Updater under the Camera's setting menu: "It will occur additional fee. Will you continue?" The functionality is debatable at this point considering it runs into an error upon updating. Hm.
I will try Odin some other time when I have a few hours to brush up on flashing. I am not very familiar with hacking mobile phones in general, so I want to be better acquainted with the process before I dive into it. But a lag fix and bloatware delete are certainly in this phone's future!
Browser is really buggy for me. It takes up 70MB of RAM on start up and has the terrible checker boards effect.
GPS works perfectly for me on DK17 and 28.
However, it may be that I restored my data partition from a backup I made from DK17. I'll try running a factory reset and we'll see what happens.
I've noticed that when using on screen keyboard for a quick seach online, the on screen keyboard will not go away when pressing the back button sometimes. Anyone else?
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
I've still had some issues with the back button being unresponsive, perhaps to a lesser extent since Froyo, but I have gotten so used to it I can hardly acknowledge the problem based on recollection of testing the phone.
However, I noticed the Quadrant scores are very disappointing in both my own test and in user comments. I can't wait to root and lagfix this thing.
In addition, the physical keyboard still drops letters at random. It seems to have gotten worse since the update.

I did the exact same thing, but flashed my old DG27 to get my initial GPS fix in maps, then ODINed the new one.
Clean installs work wonders.

You mean root and artificially increase your Quadrant scores for bragging rights? There is no lag fix on the epic. The only "lag fix" is a "game Quadrant scores" fix.
Charging paused Error
Battery Temperature too high.
The battery is low. Please Recharge the phone.
I got this crazy error when charged to full. I'll reset my battery in recovery and see if i get this crazy error again.
One thing I've noticed is the battery icon does not update battery life sometimes. If I reboot the phone, the battery life will jump from full to half a battery.

Anyone try the mediahub? It says an urgent update needs downloaded from the market before using it.... but when you click ok... it can't find the update in the market. Hmmm?
Also... .GPS is dead for me too.... even tried Odin'ing back to DI18 and then DK28.... but that method failed a miserable death.... still hoping for a newer release soon... this one is still BUGGY!

I've got the same error with MediaHub. Looking for a Froyo apk now.
GPS is working fine for me - I had a 100% stock 2.1 that I did update.zip to Froyo. I hadn't even installed any apps or even loaded up my Google account. Literally bought the phone, waited for provision, then updated to Froyo.
What version of Media Hub are you running? Mine is working fine.

i have focus sim unlocked on att. i don't have any problem in installing apps from market place but i am not getting auto updates for apps. when i search for any app that i already installed , apps that are having updates it shows up and when i click update it updates. but itz painful and time consuming in searching for the updates that i already installed. do any one having similar issue? if there is a solution for this please leave a post. thanks in advance
I'm also having this issue and need help for a solution as well!!
The explanation is simple: the available bandwidth is the same while the number of phones and app checks has increased.
So, this not actually an issue, this happens. If you're mainly using 3G connection, this is to be expected.
3G connection is sensibly slower than WiFi and the number of apps has gone past 30k, thus some checks will time out.
It is recommended that you use USB/WiFi connection to sync from time to tome to prevent this happening very often.
I doubt that's the problem.
My girlfriend also has a Samsung Focus (updated to mango), and we have some of the same apps/games...when one has an update on her phone the marketplace tile alerts her, but mine doesn't show anything unless I search for the app in the market and check it, then it tells me there's an update, not sure what to do.
definitely a big issue... it has been a month since my marketplace has stopped showing any app update already. The updates are there when I manually search for it. It was fine for the past 9 months until now.
Weird thing is both my girlfriend and me are using unbranded Optimus 7, same carrier, same account/phone settings. but she keeps getting new update alert almost everyday, which I did not, even for the same apps.
Tried connected via 3d/wifi/usb all day long, tried guessing and uninstalling app which maybe conflicting, etc... none helped.
anybody else find a fix yet? please share
Still no luck...
Maybe its because I did the force update to Mango (my girlfriend didn't to that and hers works fine) so I have a bad feeling it was because of that, and no one seems to have a solution. I've reset my phone, re-installed apps, etc.
it downloaded the file, verified it, said it was going to reboot in 10, 9, 8, 7.. then said your system is up to date!?
Only thing I can think of is it aborted due to battery level?
B
exactly the same! What to do? dont want to wait for days again!
I've assumed it's battery and am charging now.. anyone else know what's going on?
The same issue with me...Don't have a clue what to do..
i9023? mines not rooted or anything "custom"
Me too! I just received the OTA notification, made a backup and clicked update.
Downloaded the 128mb file, file check was ok, pushed "restart and install" and instead it said that system is updated. Any help?
No root, stock 2.3.6, i9023
same here, my phone was on charge btw..
Anyone found a resolution for this yet? Received another OTA download?
Mine was on about 45% when I got OTA, plugged it in to my comp USB port before download started but still disappeared on countdown as well
not received another notification, how rubbish eh! maybe they somehow "pulled it" before it could damage something? dunno. I'm sure someone clued up might add something helpful.
This bug is so annoying, it was soo close!! Still haven't found anything about it on here or other sites, and still no new OTA message
Same here,
Just got the update OTA...finished downloading and began counting down for the restart. At 8 secs remaining it switched to saying "your system is currently up to date". I tried restarting with no luck!
WTF!!
I hope it comes back!
I have still recieved nothing! How long would it take? I have a normal nexus s, unbranded unrooted and all that stuff...

If you received an update notification a little while ago but the update isn't currently available for your phone, this is likely the result of Google pausing the update in your area while we monitor feedback. The Android 4.0 update is continuing to roll out around the world so your phone will receive another update notification when it's available again in your region.
5 of 10 people found this answer helpful. Did you? YesNo Report abuse
That doesn't really address, RECEIVING, downloading, verifying and "ok'ing" the update, only for nothing to happen. V odd.
Same here..
Why don't, all of you, flash it manually? It's exact same as receiving the update ota.
I'm a new user so I can't attach link but if you go to the Google Mobile Help Forum you can see a thread, started by a user called Fozan, reporting the same issue.
Maybe it's better if you all report the problem there as well so Google can understand that we are a lot!

Ever since I updated to the June Security Patch, I've been having a problem with the recents screen. Usually about once a day, it will state that there are no recent apps when I push the recents capacitive button. I have to reboot in order for any apps to appear in the recents screen again.
Anybody else have this problem? And more importantly, does anybody have a solution?
I'm having this problem. Just like you I noticed it after the June patch.
---------- Post added at 02:03 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:02 AM ----------
Forgot to mention. I haven't found a solution. I also have no idea how a security patch can affect the software. I haven't factory reset at all but maybe that could help. I also have no idea why this update came in a month late.
Haven't tried a factory reset either. I don't feel like going through that much work to set it up again. At least not yet. Perhaps the next security patch will fix this issue.

Nope, phone is rock solid after update.
Granted, it would take a few days to test for the issue you're having.
I noticed that this was more than just a security update. The file was half a gig. Also, there is a new useless AT&T app to set up and transfer settings and information between phones, and WiFi calling in quick settings.
But I also feel like the phone is slightly faster than before. Maybe it's all in my head, but it's really smooth right now.
Read some where that this latest update add wifi calling, can anybody check and see if the option is there? It's G930AUCU2APG1 for the S7, and G935AUCU2APG1 for the S7 Edge)

I am having a terrible time with this update and looking for help. My original problem was web browser tabs constantly not loading and eventually the browsers would just crash. I used the default internet app, Chrome, Dolphin, UC broswer etc etc every single one had same problem. The phone is also freezing up at times and randomly restarting. So far I have
1. Wiped the cache partition
2. Did numerous factory resets
3. Took the phone to Best Buy and the Samsung tech reflashed my phone
4. I deleted all my synched google data
I am running out of options. I did have it working for about an hour and thought I was in the clear, but I logged into chrome and all the problems started again and I can not fix them this time. (This was the reason I deleted my google backup data). Samsung said to ship the phone to them, but I work maintenance in a nursing home and am call 24-7 most days and can not be without a phone for 2 weeks. I was hoping to either flash with an older version or at least be able to reflash myself with the new update. Any help would be appreciated.
I updated to the July update earlier this week. I'm now seeing issues with recent showing no recent apps, and my battery life is tanking. I used to get to about 30% at the end of the day and now I can't get through the day without charging. Also, Wifi calling is enabled but doesn't work...it says failure to register.

Try factory resetting. If that doesn't work there is a thread with the fw that you can restore to with Odin.

I used Odin to go back to the June patch and phone was working great. Like an idiot I thought well maybe the last time I tried to do the July update something got corrupted so I updated again and went to bed. Try out my phone this morning and back to the same issues I was having. I set the phone up as new as well so I did not transfer / back up apps and what not. For whatever reason my phone is not taking that July update. I do not get it.....
