MDL and MDC? - Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot

What is this? What does it mean? And which one is the newest?
Sent from my SPH-L720 using xda premium

MDL is the latest.
As far as the explanation, maybe I can find the quote for you that summarizes it.
...
Found it.

The version "number" of our ROM's. It indicates the release date (or rather the build date)
M is the 13'th letter in the alphabet (2013)
D is the 4th (April)
L is the 12th + either 9 or 10 (0-9 or 1-9, they use all the numbers first for the date before moving letters of the alphabet for this one for some reason) = either the 21st or 22nd.
So this build was released or built on April 21/22 of 2013.
Our original build MDC was April 12/13 of 2013.

The hell freeze over [Telus release 2.1 for their Hero]

HTC Hero (Telus) Éclair ROM Update 3.36.661.1
http://www.htc.com/ca/support/hero-telus/downloads/
It seems to be an OTA. I wonder if someone can get the RUU and post it here?

Wow. This is the surprise of the year.
I guess this means the Desire will get 2.2 soon.
version 3.36.661.1 appears to be newer than anything else. Maybe there is a new radio inside? Could be interesting.
Has anyone had the chance to disassemble this OTA package yet?
I'm curious about the prospect of a Telus-specific radio.
On my Telus (unlocked) Hero I have this ROM http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=714855&highlight=3.32.405.
Will upgrading to this telus ROM mess anything up?

Can't I just download it off the Telus website? It's posted there?
I can get the update, but every time I try to apply it I boot into my custom recovery and the update fails, is there a way to remove the custom recovery software?
@flindil
I am not sure where you could get the standard recovery (you would probably have to ask someone with a backup)
However can you post the update file? It is probably /sdcard/update.zip
thanks

bah, its not the right version >< I got 3.32.405.1, sorry about getting your hopes up..
where did you get it?
Someone started a new thread and posted a d/l link for the radio here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=821024
Ok yes, the download link is in the other thread, thanks.
However I would like to point out this fact :

ro.build.version.incremental=199109
ro.build.version.sdk=7
ro.build.version.codename=REL
ro.build.version.release=2.1-update1

So Telus basically shipped a ROM from june in october. A whole 4 months late!
Only the radio appears to be newer (from august 3rd)

Good catch.
Yeah, I guess we all know why they did that. One word, 6 letters long, starts with a 'D'.
Hmm, im looking for it on my girlfriends Hero, cant even find the option, only to set when to update. I set it to automatically, but nothing yet. Is it taking time to rollout? Or am i missing something?

Is there no one who has the newest t-mobile March update in zip form

I'm unable to update my phone for whatever reason, it still says January 1 and I'm up to date. I'm fully stock and have looked all over here and the Internet with lots of international 9.0.13 zips or tmobile 9.0.3. I'm looking to update manually but need the zip, does anyone have it, the newest one?
When my wife comes home I will check her phone if there is an update I was unaware that t mobile released an update. Where did you find out about an t mobile update? The one plus update is about a week old or so in official channels so t mobile should be out in a couple weeks if they stay on task. The quarter #2 release has till the end of June to be considered on time since the updates are quarterly.
Thanks for the reply.
I found this on Tmobile site but no link.

Your build number seems to match the newest from that link you sent. 217 seems to be the newest from your screenshot. You must remember that one plus uses different number schemes than t mobile. T mobile also has January security patch and not the newest security patch. That you see in beta and custom ROMs.
You are right, weird it still says January and I haven't gotten an update in a while

Security patch is from January the update came a few weeks ago. In the release notes you will notice no mention of new security patch as it was still beta when the update came. Security patches are not always the newest and is part of the main reason people use custom or international ROMs phone carriers across the globe are slow at updated security since that is not their focus.
That is very confusing. Thank you for the help. I take it I'm not the only one.

Lol, I had the international Rom, pixelfy, and dragon I think it was called but none had service as good as the stock T-Mobile rom. Download speeds and radios seem to work better with stock, and I'm using it as my work phone so I have to be clean, no root. I have the note 9 for my personnel.

Extract stock firmware from N20U and make a odin flashable zip

Can someone direct me to a tutorial on how to extract my current stock Samsung firmware and make an Odin flashable zip file?
The firmware I am currently using has July security patch for N986N and the firmware is not available anywhere online. I would like to extract this firmware and make a flashable zip file. Others might find it useful too incase they need to change the CSC sometime in future.
As of now, CSC changes are only supported in July security patch. So having a backup of this exact firmware might help in future.
Help please?!?? ???
If you're doing this just for "security". Don't bother. Too much work. Security patches are useless.

No. In order to change CSC in future, I'll need July firmware reinstalled. CSC updates dont work with August/September updates sadly. So I thought it will be handy have the current July update backed up.

Hey thats with September build, not July.
Looks like you didn't understand what I was trying to say.
In order to change CSC, your security patch needs to be earlier than August which means July.
July build is not available anywhere online. I have 2 Note Ultras - both N986N
One of them has September patch so I am not able change the CSC on it.
The other one is July, which works flawlessly for CSC changes. If there is a way I could extract the firmware on my July version N20U, I could try flashing the same on to the other device.
There are others searching for the same firmware too.
