New firmware out - LG8 UK - Galaxy S III General

Just downloaded a 5 mb update. Brings back full search. Not sure if there is any thing else.

Samsung true to their promise:

They can be quick if they want to!

Got the same thing. So glad to get it back. Not cause I use it but just on principle they didn't need to remove it in the first place

Of course they can be quick, considering how this only adds back a feature that was previously there.

ohh thank god for the full search feature!:angel:
i was upset when it was removed!!

Nice to see some sense from Samsung! And decent support too.....now bring us Some Jelly Bean love!

No, you get sense from HTC not Samsung!

This was the first ota update I've had since I got my phone 3 weeks ago I had to use kies to update my phone

Apparently removing the local search was a mistake?

Exaclty my thoughts, it looks like the update brought new modem, so how could it be so small?
BTW, can some of you guys try if voodoo cim unlock works with this new fw? It was not working on LG6. Thanks.

For those not on LG6 I imagine its larger.
LG8's only apparent difference from LG6 is the readding of integrated search. The actual updates came in LG6.

To get ota updates, would I need to unroot?

Is the update not the unified search fix? Fail I didnt read the OP

two fingers up to Apple.....nice one Samsung

What version you running now?
I imagine Samsung's first priority is to push the fix to LG6 users, since they had the feature removed.

Nothing for India yet

Why havnt I received any OTA? I'm on pure stock LFB with no root.
When I go to software update it says:
"Access to the software update service is provided to users in the order in which they request it. Try Later."
Connecting to Kies on my PC says its up to date.

Don't get verizon update

I didn't see any benefit. Now I lost my root. So mad at those bloatwares. We should have an option to remove them without rooting.

I did the update also and now I'm realizing I shouldn't have.
-Ticker seems to be messed up
--Even though I show subscribed to RSS feeds, I'm not getting any
--Facebook/Twitter: Not receiving notifications
When I did the update, I had no problems but now, a week or so later, I get sporatic behavior on my Ticker. Still getting email notifications though.
Well I guess I'm lucky not to be able to update then.

I'm on 3, but there is no way I'm going back to stock to see what it is. Though I would like to know what radio they are shipping.

Well its better than before, as it was a KE2 rom, now KF4 with what is a pretty good radio, KE7 is still the best for me though.
Seems pretty good all things considered, better late than never for those who stay stock and update via official channels

Facebook update

So Facebook has the new update and I thought I'd go and see how they messed it up this time. So I go to the market and for some reason it says device not comparable with this app. Which is weird cuz I already have Facebook on my phone(who doesn't). Is it just me or can't all atrixes...atri..( don't know plural for atrix) get the update. Or is it all phones can't get cuz the update was pulled or something like that.

I never had problem with the update either. Facebook should be available for any Android device. Also, I think the plural would be Atrices. Seeing as the only word similar to Atrix is matrix.

You must be running a custom ROM.
I had that issue with CM7.
Went back to Alien 4 and the update works.

Its been confirmed working on many roms like CM9, but unfortunately it doesn't work on Euphoria or Passion as i tried it out.
It tells me when i open the app to ask the developer of the ROM to implement... well idk but i'll write the exact message here
"ERROR!
Your firmware is not compatible with SwitchMe. Contact the creator of your ROM and convey the fact that our awesome little app does not work with init scripts or A2SD implementations linking data to virtual folders or partitions"

Is that too much to ask for or should I just forget about this being available for our ICS roms?
I dont get what it does.
Two things.
1. Link to the first page so people know what your talking about.
2. F this link baiting crap. Who shares their phone like that? waist of ram. Our phones have a shortage anyways.

No, you read it wrong. It's let's you install multiple accounts. Think of it like Windows. You maybe have 2+ users on it. That's what this app is.

No it's a puppy taco app. It just let's you have different used profiles on same rom, not multiple roms.
Sounds like it does more or less exactly the same thing as the profiles feature in ICS
Oh never mind then screw that... I tight it was multiple roms

I get the same problem but not as severe as you. also on AT&T ROM unrooted. It could just be the app with that bug. Maybe devices other than S4 could have same issue. Someone can verify it but until then we can't assume our phone is the only one.

I wonder if it is a 1080p bug. I will check on the HTC One forums.

This happens on the S3 and Note 2 also. Some bug in the proprietary Samsung TouchWiz framework probably.

Really I had the Note 2 for the past 6 months and never noticed it. I do think it has to be the latest update. That would be the reason I never saw it on the Note 2 because I sold it by then.
