Hi
I wake up and have an update-from-tmo message . The think is that I already have the OTA JI6. does anyone knows something about this?
Anyone?..................
I haven't heard of any other update since J16.
Did you update manually to J16 or use the OTA?
Yeah, how did you update to JI6?
Install it and let us know if your firmware/baseband are the same.
I had Bionix 1.9, which already had the official OTA JI6 version. Still got the message T-Mo about the update, so I just updated it and everything seems fine. Didn't have any problems.
I have a similar problem. I had the update message but didn't want to apply it since I read about all the horror stories. I manually updated to JI6 and baseband version, etc., all reflects this (as does media hub being unlocked, hd camcorder, GPS working, new sorted gallery and other fixes). However, I still have the damn notification that pops up constantly. How do I get rid of it??
I 1st tried OTA but it got stuck on the vibrant screen so I odin the JI5 but ended up with the JI6. Don't ask me how. The odin files I have in my comp are the JI5. Another thing is that I was rooted when I OTA the JI6. Ended up with JI6 rooted

I'm using a stock ROM I flashed through Odin a while back after bouncing around some different custom ROMs. I have OCLF installed. I got the notification for the update, chose to install, within 5 seconds my phone rebooted but nothing changed. I still have the same software. If I check for updates I get the no firmware message again. What am I supposed to do to get the update?
Just flash the update via oden. Thats what I did. I got tired of waiting.
You're supposed to look for the change in the baseband version, should read something like T959UVJ16. This isn't a firmware change, just an update.....
Mine did the same thing and my baseband shows the above. I've heard Media Hub works after the update, which mine doesn't, and I don't see task manager anywhere.
I have UVJI5 update installed from Kies, is it possible to flash this update over it.

My baseband hasn't changed. Still JFD.
I got the OTA notification letting me know an update was available. I ignored it because after reading about all the horror stories here on XDA I didn't want to have a bricked phone. So I went ahead and successfully applied the JI6 update manually using Mini Kies as described on Samsung's website. However, I still get the update notification like before! How do I get rid of it?
I couldn't find a way to get rid of it, so I just ran it and planned on having to redo the update via odin. It applied just fine however.
Interesting. One of my theories is that I could go ahead and apply the OTA but when it downloaded and did a check against the current version it would give up and move along. Do you think that's what happened? How long did the "update" take? Did you notice a new update.zip file or other telltale signs it attempted an update? Were you rooted?
Thanks!

Just go ahead and do the update, it will download it but won't actually update because it will determine you are on the latest version. Then the message won't appear anymore.
I updated mine via Odin, then click on Update on the OTA notification, and it did not do a full update (much too quick and did not lose root, like I did when I Odin it).
I was bugging out over the same question... but the notification seems to have gone away out of the blue (took between 4 and 5 days).
I may have accidentally missed the 'postpone' button and applied at some point... can't be totally sure... but it's possible the notification will eventually just go away...
anyway it's comforting to hear nothing bad happens =). Thanks for asking the question!
[EDIT]: The icon will deceptively disappear then reappear, apparently. Applied the update this time. It rebooted the phone and appears to have done no damage. Phone is still rooted with RyanZa's OCLF.
It appears mine went away mysteriously as well. I did say postpone 1 day, but it still had the notification in the top with a little clock next to it. When I woke up this morning, it was gone. Thanks for the answers everyone!
My phone was rooted and lag-fixed using RyanZa's OCLF but I removed everything and unrooted and just applied the JI6 update using the tutorial posted by youneek.
I completed the 2nd part and I tested my phone and everything is working, but I still get the message saying "Congrats, T-Mobile has sent you an update..." Shouldn't it recognize that I'm already on JI6?
Since we all did the DK to EC OTA update i never followed up, did they ever come out with an EB13 to EC05 OTA Update?
and since i have been flashing roms and kernels with great sucess over the past 2 months , I just noticed the last flash i no longer have the Samsung white letters when I boot normally and or into CW has anyone else seen this? I have been having a bit of trouble with FC lately.
Thanks

Yes they did release eb13 to ec05 ota update. I never lost the samsung boot screen and force close issues are usually fixed by fixing permissions in cwm and/or clearing app data in the app that is having issues.

It's still downloadable directly from Google at:
http://android.clients.google.com/packages/ota/sprint_samsung_d700/20428846d0d6.update-SPH-D700_EB13ToEC05.zip
Or, if you install stock EB13 it should still update OTA.
As for the FCs, if you are on a ROM with an unjourneled EXT4 filesystem many people believe that it will slowly accumulate data errors, especially if you ever pull the battery from the phone when it's on.
I went back to stock and put on eb13 instead of going back to di18 and it immediately and automatically upgraded me to ec05.
finally upgraded from DI01 to ED01 and have discovered a problem. the 4 buttons on the bottom of the screen now act weird. they will light up, go out, or flicker depending on what im doing. never had this problem before and i havent seen anyone else post about it but i could have missed it. anyone have any idea?
Did you update stock di01 to stock ed01 or between custom roms?

no, i tried the OTA update several times with the end result being the server IP error. unrooted and tried again several times with the same results. then i followed the link in another post and flashed with odin, the DL09. tried again several times to get the OTA update with no success. had to flash that several times and then finally got it to install. as it sits i am running ED01 stock but rooted. my wifes phone had had all the OTA updates and has always run stock, not even root and has some problems with the buttons as well.
try reflashing a kernel... i only dealt with that problem once a while back and i just reflashed everything and that seemed to fix it.
Also i used to restore system files from titanium backup and sometimes it didn't play nice with whatever i upgraded to and that would cause the backlights to bug out before i got force close messages.
