Android Central has user talking about an update from AT&T and that it sort of fixed the lag as well as apps all launch much quicker and snappier.

If you are running a custom rom, you will need to wait for the roms dev to release an update to his rom. Updates from your carrier will only apply if you are still stock; Otherwise, you must wait until those updates get incorporated into the rom you choose to run.

Yea got it in the morning

horse for courses really yes
i agree ,if you have no problems with your version your running now then dont update,i had no problems,but im in that group of people that need to update to the latest softwares
4.3 was good enough for me really,but i can not help myself
stay on 4.3 untill you read more about kitkat

That is good but what about battery drain
And sensor and motion works
The big problem if I update there is no way to back to 4.3

Thats why i actually updated to cm11. Which is still kitkat but also works on the old bootloader. Means you can always go back to stock 4.3. You will lose all available spen features tho and all Samsung stuff . If you're not scared of knoxing your device that is.

What update? Can you be a bit more specific? Nothing showing for the UK for some time on sammobile.

I don't know what update it is just when I click on update on my phone says maximum number succeeded please try later or on kies but there have been few other people on here in the UK say the same thing

Hey
Its said this for a few days now, i think they are having an issue.

Oh ok have tried kies but nothing showing on that oh also sent you a message but I think you have answered it now. Thx bud

Not installing kies lol I'll wait. Same message here. Anyone know what the update is?
Sent from my GT-I9505 using XDA Free mobile app

The easiest thing to do would be to list your current firmware. Then we can tell you if its the latest or if you are a behind. I think NB8 is the latest stock BTU UK firmware.

Yeah. Lots of people reporting the same thing unfortunately.

I already have the latest version just that when you click on device and update it tells you maximum number of updates rolled out but like other people say there must be a problem with Samsung server.

Can you now pull the update from sammobile and install with odin yourself?

Got it now, only 16mb was wanting to know what it does? Never mind installing now.
Still 4.4.2 and is now I9505XXUFNB9

Yeah I just got it as well nothing major just a stability software update.
Sent from my GT-I9505 using XDA Free mobile app

I just seen NB9 released too, what a load of rubbish. Other countries are rolling out much newer firmware and we get a minor patch made back in February,,,
The latest German firmware NF1 had a June date.

Good old uk always second to last.
Sent from my GT-I9505 using XDA Free mobile app

If it makes you feel any better I've tried loads of stock and custom firmware on my UK btu handset and have always come back to fnb8 UK stock as it's the most stable to date. So the fact that other counties have "more up to date" firmware versions is really not important because they bring no extra features and just add problems. E.g. nge5 and ngf1 (the latest firmwares) have random reboots meaning that I can't even walk down the street listening to music because halfway through a song it will cut out and reboot.
If it ain't broke don't fix it. I'd say stick with fnb8 until they release a firmware with new features (maybe when Android L is released).

Hi guy's, does the 16mbt patch fix anything??? Otherwise I agree that fnb8 is pretty good for me, any feedback? Thanks

Damn. That is not a good news. They should well maintaince this device because it is flagship.
Sent from my SM-N9208 using XDA-Developers mobile app

I am waiting for a MM update too. But to be honest I already thought about those problematics when choosing a device that is not sold in Europe (and btw I an from Austria) AND a dual Sim variant.
Nevertheless that's no excuse for Samsung.
I hope they will carry on... I really like this device and want to keep it for a while.
