Probably a bad idea to take this soak test if I rooted with SlapMyMoto, right? :/
i got an email as well. the closer to release the more hope for 4.4 root so i'm keeping my fingers crossed that soak test v2 moves along quickly so we can get an official full release.
Yeah they just sent me one as well I am already on 4.4 but here is hoping it's 4.4.2 if not my phone runs fine so no reason to update.
I got the invite too but don't want to risk losing root to participate... if I get the upgrade and lose root with no way to back down to 4.2.2 to re-root I'd be pissed.

I'm thinking they want us on stock 4.2.2 to participate, which is impossible to my knowledge.

I agree- I'm on rooted 4.2.2, although I did remove write protection because I was going to upgrade to 4.4 and keep root, just hadn't gotten around to re-flashing 4.2.2 then slapping it yet. I guess now I'll wait to see if there are any significant differences between this new soak test version and the last, and see if root can be maintained through the update process.
This new soak is for people on 4.2.2 to test if when they upgrade ota to 4.4 if the device will brick or is everything is straightened out. That was the big issue with the first soak so Matt and everyone is looking to see if they fixed that issue

I didn't get the invite. I got the previous one, though.
Did anyone get both invites? I successfully updated to 4.4 on my first Droid Maxx, but the microphone went bad and I needed to get a replacement. The replacement bricked when I tried to install the 4.4 OTA, and I haven't tried it again on my 3rd Droid Maxx. It's registered and I've opted-in to MFN, though. But for now I'm still stuck on 4.2.2.

If it's the exact same update, you won't see the OTA. However it could potentially be a newer version of 4.4. If so, you should get it.

2 things. Did I miss the update being released? And I have yet to load a leak because I need infrastructure wifi. The update will remove your root and you will need to re root after you get it. Also, the update probably won't install ota if you aren't running stock rom/kernel. At least the other updates haven't installed with modified stuff.

I stand corrected.. oversight on my part. Custom ROM/kernel will not get the OTA notification.
If you have the stock ROM/kernel, you'll get the OTA notification.
If you're rooted and using stock ROM, you'll lose root. Might lose custom recovery as well, but I'm not sure on that.
What I'd recommend, if you ARE rooted and you have custom recovery (clockwork), then wait for the release (like we all are) and it WILL show up here.
The Devs/chefs are all over this and waitng just like everyone else.
Patience is the key.
I flashed back to 2.1 stock last night. I'm going to wait for 2.2 OTA before I root again. Then I will wait a couple weeks until some nice stuff gets cooked up here on xda and is nice and stable before I flash any custom 2.2 items. I can wait.
I'm pretty sure everyone is waiting..
Yeh I guess ill just wait...guy at the sprint store promised 2.2 by the end of october and 4g by the end of november. I guess they will say any thing to sell a phone -__-

I have been twiddling my thumbs for weeks waiting for the 2.2 OTA update. I got so impatient one night that I started downloading the necessary tools to root and install a leaked 2.2 version, but quickly settled down and decided to wait it out.
I also downloaded Samsung Kies; I am running Windows 7 64-bit, and the program will not boot from the .exe under any conditions (as administrator, under XP compatabilities, etc)... I have yet to even be able to see the program's interface or find any legitimate documentation for troubleshooting the software.
No complaints with the phone yet, but I am seriously disappointed that I have had to wait so long for 2.2... Samsung claims that this update will allow for quicker future Android updates, but I am taking that with a grain of salt considering the false announcements that have been made so far regarding its official release.

Cant wait to try it. downloading now.
First post on XDA!(although I may have had an old account at some point)
I know that the official VZW OTA release of this won't come out until what looks like April, and my current setup using launcher pro (paid) is Force Closing a lot. I had to download a .sbf a while back after I bricked my phone due to some ROM instal issue going horribly wrong. the .sbf I downloaded was 2.2.1 version 2.3.32.0.MB810.Verizon.en.US I got the download from mydroidworld.com/forums/droid-x-discussion/5633-droid-x-2-3-32-full-sbf.htm....aroundjanuary of this year posted by p3droid.
so now to my question:
in order to get the OTA of 2.3.3 when that hits later on this spring, do I need to have the latest OTA build as in 2.3.34 in order to upgrade to Gingerbread?
If i need to get 2.3.34, what's the best way of doing so?
many thanks!

I don't know about your first question, but if you need 2.3.34, go here:

Installing this OTA update will make it so you can't use RSD lite to flash a SBK from an earlier version.
This is important because if for any reason you mess up your phone beyond repair and want to go back to a "stock" state, you will not be able to use the SBK files we currently have.
It will cause your phone to brick (as we have seen with the SAME file that was leaked a couple of weeks ago) if you go back to an earlier version via RSD.

They will be termed "buggy" in my opinion until the VM notification is fixed. If you're using this phone in a business environment it's more "catastrophic" than "buggy".

I beg to differ. I've gotta bug (that could be the result of user error, but I don't think so) When I get a call, no one can hear me unless I'm on speaker or Bluetooth. I haven't seen any posts from anyone else with that issue, but it's been only since I flashed this leak.
Edit: I noticed someone else had the same prob on the previous build and wiping then reflashing fixed it. My 4g is working much better... Hopefully voice and sporadically missing texts are fixed too.

That is correct. I've had some issues with my wireless and this update is supposed to fix some wireless issues.
if you're rooted: i would research and try one of these MF3-based roms. any changes you may be looking for should also be contained in that rom. it will be rooted, hence allowing you to keep root as well as the option to revert to any other rom you may want to try later.
if you're not rooted and dont care about root: you'll have to wait until you receive the update. when that happens, kiss the possibility of root goodbye. you may not care about that if the wireless issue you have is resolved. however, if that issue is not resolved in the MF3 update, you cannot root and try another rom nor revert to a previous firmware version.
Are you wanting to root or flash custom roms?
Yep same here stock att s4. Of 4 phones two updated to mf3 and two didnt keep saying up to date. Not sure why...did att stop Rolling out the update?
Im happy with stock...not intention of rooting (though I have rooted my epic 4g in thw past). Using holo launcher to hide touchwiz. (I dont think it has to do w that)

If you are on MDL, and you have no intentions of rooting right off the bat, and you want the MF3 update, make sure your status is set to official and manually move the date up 1 day, to force the update.
