Android System Update?? VZW 7.7 Tab. What is it?

Just got a notification that there is a system update for my 7.7 LTE. Anyone have any clue what it is? ICS?! Probably not. Anyone else get it?

26.2MB doesn't seem too promising. But I don't see any information on VZW's website either.

I just got this as well. I assume updating it to whatever it is will Bork my root and recovery?

That's what I'm afraid of as well. Almost seems worth it to see if it is ICS.

I doubt its Ics. I'm going to upgrade

Me too. Let me know though.

I got this earlier and it failed on install. Like has been said at 26.2MB I seriously doubt it's ICS.

Tab restarted and it showed the android icon. A status bar went like a quarter of the way until it showed the android with an exclamation point and froze. I freaked out and held power to shut it down. It booted to cwm and I restarted.
Not sure if it even completed the update at all.

I took the RED pill. SuperSU seems to be disabled, probably root too...
EDIT: Cleaned up SuperSU, rerooted, installed Superuser and all is well.
WHEW!

After update on mine, Still Android 3.2
Build is now FD01
Mine was not rooted before update

Maybe it's a test run for the ICS update...

Damn. I just got that message too and said "go" because I have root with backup (ota rootkeeper) and CWM so I thought let's see but all it did was reboot *into CWM!!* and gave me some error, checksum mismatch or whatever. Rebooted and all is still untouched "old" version.
Now system/about says no update available. How can I manually install this? I think it's a new modem and hope it is and that it will finally fix the horrid 4G reception issues. My Droid Razr gets SOOO much better signal in the same area.
Does anyone by chance have a clean, fresh stock install plus this update and can pull me a CWM nandroid backup ?

Here is what the update is, and no its NOT ICS, sorry. Please read

Nope
Mine was updated yesterday and i don't see a huge difference before and after

"Biggest" change appears to be IPv6 support. I care (I'm all IPv6-native at home), most probably won't.

Will I lose root?
Has anyone tested whether we will lose root by upgrading? And if so does the root.zip work to get it back?
Given what's at stake (IPv6 functionality), I don't think I care whether I do it or not, I just want it to stop asking me.

Yes I lost root but re-rooted with .zip just fine

I applied this OTA last night. Since then, I'm seeing much poorer data speeds: Previously had pretty solid LTE speeds, now I'm lucky to exceed 500-1000kbps down.
Does anyone know if the previous i815 ROM / previous radio file is available online to flash via desktop Odin? (I've searched but didn't find anything but a nandroid file -- I'm not rooted, so don't have CWM.)

212 mb software update.. anyone know what it is?

I'm just wondering how you can tell? Mine connects to the server and then says that there is no update available, but couldn't this be a tiered release so that everyone doesn't flood the update servers at the same time?

Mine also says no updates available. Running stock 4.0.3.
Sent from my GT-P3113 using Tapatalk 2

Can anyone provide a system dump?

This is the new keyboard.
Sent from my GT-P3113 using xda app-developers app

I just spoke to Samsung support. They say it is tiered. He told me it wasn't fully ready for prime time as of yet. I am rooted on 4.0.3 and when I go into Kies, it says there is an update, but, never updates. If I try OTA, it says there is NO UPDATE. So, Kies should work on a non-rooted 4.0.3? I hate to un-root, update, then go through that whole process again (Not the rooting, the app restore and configuration - Haven't tried a restore yet via My Backup Pro, so not sure how painful it will be).

Mine is about 2 months old....

Mine rolled out this morning in Kentucky. Took quiet a while to update.Quite a big change to the look of the keyboard and the stock browser.Thus far, I like it! I will report more later .

just updated also using Kies for Mac.. cannot updated using Kies in Windows even though it says there's an update, the device always get disconnected. while OTA is not yet available.
can this be rooted by the existing steps?

I bought the tablet a week ago and it came with 4.04 out of the box. I was able to install CWM and flash a custom rom, everything worked perfectly !

I'm haing the same issue with Kies for Windows. Tablet disconnects everytime I try to start an update. Guess I'll wait for the OTA.

Camera GT-I9505 don't work!

Hi, the problem is that I can not use the camera of S4. The first day was fine but suddenly stopped working. When I open the app the screen stays black with buttons and options of the camera and when I press responds to 10 sec.
Occasionally the camera is perfect, so it must be a problem with Software ... I have restored the Stock Roms from Kies, Odin, etc.. donot what else to do ...
Any suggestions? regards

*#34971539# and try reflashing camera firmware, it's the first option i think, if that doesn't work then it's a problem with your camera module.

Hi, it seems that magically risen camera and goes all perfect and super-fluid, thanks for the interest.

The bootloader thing sucks... Don't think I will be updating. They shouldn't force Knox on all consumers. Previously, I've seen it marketed towards corporate users for tighter security, but on ordinary consumers? It just doesn't make sense.

That, my friend, is KNOX. I hope Chainfire finds a way to save us all from Samsung. I've heard that apps started misbehaving since the update... Like call recorder apps won't work or even stuff just being laggy.

Starting to push OTA 4.4 again?

Got my update alert this afternoon. Looks like they started pushing 4.4 again to start the week off. Anyone else get one?
Despite the fact I really really want the better camera settings I'm gonna hold off to preserve my LTE on T-Mobile......well for as long as I can at least before the pressure gives in. Or they get the radio problems in 4.4 fixed. If that ever happens.
Hope everyone has good luck with it if they get it.

Also wondering if there is confirmation that the entitlememnt hack dies on this update. And if so, is there a known hotspot solution?

I just received the update this morning (DC area), so it looks like they're pushing it out pretty quickly.
The update was fast- it probably only took 5 minutes- and was without issue.

I've updated to 4.4 in December and the entitlement hack is no longer working. Prior to the update I was rooted with the initial MotoRoot and modified Entitlment Check value to enable free tethering, then unrooted and removed MotoRoot. Big red finally caught up with us and resets the Entitlement Check value with the 4.4 update.

I'm assuming you're rooted on 4.2.2. If so then yes, you MUST unroot to avoid a bootloop. Best way is to FXZ with HouseOfMoto to restore stock 4.2.2. You will not lose 'write protection disabled'.
Then follow these steps that will allow you to keep root through the 4.4 update process:

From what i read in other threads I'm led to believe this is a temporary root, and will disappear upon reboot. It also installs kinguser, not superuser, and superuser cant be installed to replace it.

Also, this was from the Dev thread directly

I think this guy should have noted in this video it only works on 4.4.4 kit Kat and that when you reboot you will lose root sometimes you don't even have to manually reboot it will just shut down randomly and root is gone ....and for Lollipop it only gets to 51% and auto shuts down I would just wait for the devs to just put something awesome together I tried it yesterday and it was a headache trying to not reboot but when it randomly shut down on its own several times I was done with it ...jmo!!

Also i should ask, retail or DevEd? this works on DevEd fine (I think) from what Ive read elsewhere.

no. nothing permanent about kingroot. every reboot it is gone.

tried on Verizon Note4 and when I opened the app, it just show me the envelope and didn't give me the lock like in the video. So it's not working for me.

I tried this kingroot last night, say for like 5/10 min til I got tired of waiting and then I Uninstalled the shop and nothing had occurred. But I have no bank or sensitive info on device, nothing financial or even remotely sensitive info... so was worth it to try.
But no go and no root. And I wad ready as when I upgraded to lollipop and set up phone, play store was reinstalling apps from my note 3, that I switch back and forth between, installed supersu and titanium (though I've no root on 4 obviously! ) I was ready to jump into titanium and start Uninstaller Bloat if
I got proof of root thru supersu granting it, or whatever the kingroot Su access is. .. either way I wad ready though. ...
No go. .. so I leave it at that till someone comes up with a surefire way too do this.
Reading up on multisystem now... looks interesting! Since no more safestrap..... multisystem looks the way next forward, though a tad bit complicated. It'll work eventually!

I would expect about ten times more traffic on this in the thread, but seems so suspect that most appear not to be biting. Me included, but not worth it anyway IMO due to just a temporary root.

Yeah, I thought people would get crazy, but I mean , temporary root is not so bad right? For example it would work to get rid of the s finder and quick connect persistent icons on the notification bar , right?
