Downloading now via Kies. Anyone has a changelog ?
It looks like a big download, will this wipe my phone ?

Whoop just upgraded through Kies.
Thought I'd get one of those "not for your device" messages cuz I just rooted the other day.

Just done mine OTA .. Cant see watched changed but i do seem to have a lag coming from wake up to unlock screen.
Mine was much faster before on the Original firmware what ever that was .

Update on wifi

I know the 4.4.2 update will only download over WiFi but will it prompt me that the update is available even if I'm not on Wi-Fi? My G2 still says it's up to date but I usually check for the update over a cellular connection

Man i tell'ya, that was the same with me. Then i got the FIBER connection on my GSM phone and there was it....UPDATEEEEE

Update is over wifi only unless you download the zip file and install that way. You need the D80010q update before the KK update becomes available.

I'm on T-Mobile. My software version is D80110g. Whenever I manually check for an update via the update center, it tells me that my phone is up to date. I have been under the impression that the T-Mobile LG G2 update is available when you manually check

you can try contacting your carrier support service ans see if you can get them to push the update to you or you can use this if you want root and recovery (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2673736) or you can try this (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2664028) this option remains totally stock

I have a Mac. This feels hopeless.

PB1 Update Rolling Out?

Did anyone get a notification for an update today? The version is "PB1" (LRX21T.G900VVRU2BPB1). It appears to just be a security patch. https://www.verizonwireless.com/support/galaxy-s5-update/ Assuming someone will dump it out, root it, and we'll be able to flash with FlashFire? I've pre-ordered a S7 so I don't know if I'll even try before I ditch this phone.

I'll give it a shot, assuming I can trigger the update.
---------- Post added at 06:53 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:01 PM ----------
Update has been downloaded. Now lets see if I can pull it.

I'm currently pulling/uploading the update.zip for @muniz_ri or @jrkruse to look at for us.
Hopefully it can be rooted using the new root method and they can make a ROM or 2 for us.

I'm just waiting on the Odin tar so you can make us a lovely version with the OD5 bootloader in it

Does anyone know if it is 5.1? I was just chatting with Samsung they said it was but I updated and it showed it was still 5.0... So did my phone not fully install it or what?

Someone confirm, this appears to update the bootloader and break our root method
EDIT: All is good

I tried multiple times to update to this ROM today, and I failed multiple times lol. I've tried enough for today. I might try again tomorrow.

Still good ol' 5.0. Change list is the same as well. Just a security update from what I gather.

just update with flashfire via http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=65593555&postcount=724 using the same keeproot method? Also, I've never been able to use xposed. Do I have to have deodexed for that?

Actually, I doubt you are going to see 5.1 as Samsung is releasing 6.0 for the S5 in May.

I have been getting a notice to install this update and I have been ignoring it because I am afraid it will stop me from being able to activate a Wi-Fi hotspot through PdaNet/foxfi. Has anyone installed this update who uses PdaNet/Foxfi as a hotspot? If so does it still work?

Several weeks, maybe a month ago one of the android news sites listed the Samsung timetable for the phones that would get it. It wasn't carrier specific but rather device specific and the S5 is slated for a May release from Sammy according the article I read.

New firmware L09C432B580

Anyone noticed the new firmware found with FF? The version is NXT-L09C432B580, dated 2017.04.19. None of system update or HiCare early adopters shows it.
How can it used to flash the phone?
Thanks.

I tried to download it for my Huawei Mate 8 L29C185 ...
In firmware finder it's showing L29C185B580 but it didn't work for me ... after the full file download ... 2.2 GB it's say this

You can try here!

Have any one got success installing this and how is your experience with it ? stable ? faster performance ? battery life ?

Well, no luck there
I downloaded, unzipped, stuck it in the dload folder, rebooted with the up/down volume. It's like it did
with the firmware finder app also, gets to 5% and fails. Sounds like I'll have to wait until the built in
app says it is available...again.
I'll keep the link though, perhaps one day it will work properly.
If it helps, this is the one I downloaded.

Your bootloader is locked, right? I ask it because I wonder if there is an order to install these differents files, and I wonder if it will be easier to install it via TWRP. I looked the content of the small file and I'm not sure what it is.

Maybe we have to install the small file before, it seems to be a patch file. So perhaps we have to install it for the second works.

Could be...Yes, I'm pretty sure the bootloader is locked. There is an option in developer options to allow it to be unlocked, but
it pops up a security warning, so I don't know if it will work or if it will hose something else.
I guess the "official" 580 will hit my phone one of these days soon.

You can see the difference with Huawei extractor in the screenshots below.
These are the files:
DTS.img
MODEMNVM_UPDATE.img
PRODUCT.img
RECOVERY2.img
SYSTEM.img
VENDOR.img
They are missing in OTA file.

"Huawei made changes in the installation process of the firmware. Now the firmware before installation passes the procedure of online checking. If you receive an "authentication failure" when installing the firmware, then at this time it is not possible to install this firmware on this unit, you need to wait. For the most stubborn:We did not find a way to bypass this test yet.. You need to wait until your imei is listed for this firmware, or make it "available to all"

Seems like the only way we'll be updating our phones from b560 before Huawei pushes OTA, is to roll back and upgrade directly to b580, or flash through custom recovery.
https://w3bsit3-dns.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=719987

This is what i found in network for B580:
Status: Official (beta)
Version: NRD90M
EMUI: 5.0
"Disclaimer: This update is in beta stage which means that it may carry bugs that can have an impact on the usability of the device. Moreover, since this is a multifile update, you may encounter errors if you try installing this with the stock recovery."

Note 8 Oreo

Hey guys thought I could start this any news on Oreo coming to T-Mobile Note 8?? Post all news here thanks guys

I asked tmobile and samsung mobile I was redirected to support page for os Nougat on tmobile website.. Nothing else new.

Samsung announced that the Note 8 will get Oreo, the time line has not been said.

Oreo Beta
https://www.reddit.com/r/GalaxyNote8/comments/7ibsip/android_oreo_ota_this_is_real/

Been running this since yesterday. Only issue I've come across is that I can't allow unknown sources. Other than that it's ok so far. Truly nothing groundbreaking about it compared to the latest official update.

Some Substratum theme options weren't yet working. A few random force closes. Security Log agent messages from some apps. Lag in the notification shade when playing Spotify (so possibly any media). It's not like Oreo is a big upgrade, so I'm not in a rush to get it.

I just got this phone two days ago and have been away from the forums for over 2 years. Root is available for BQJA if I read correctly. Is that right? I just want root for substratum. Downloaded it from the Play Store and it's offering me to buy an add on for "supported Samsung"

You don't need root for Substratum. The $1.99 add-on does work and is probably required.

You can, but only by using the built in "my files" app.. Also go to settings>apps then tap the dots in the top right and tap special access and look at the bottom of the list. Do you see install unknown apps?

I hope they fix the theming issues, half of the icons get the stupid white border/frame. even when you turn off icon frames its stays. its the biggest reason why I switched back. This Beta is really stale this year. I have it on my s8 to and I'm not really impressed
