Support Discontinued. I've decided to stop supporting this device. Don't have time to deal with idiots like @CrazyRussianXDA
To my friends @bigv5150 @Caseyk621 @rmjones2006 and others, thanks for the good times. I'll be in the shadows.
Ok will do

This time I will wait for the official OTA instead of side loading and bricking.
Has word got out for the soak?

I use and app called Drippler and there was a article up there saying emails were being sent out. So we know it coming.

Yes emails have been sent out. Shouldn't brick as long as on a stock version of 4.4

It shouldn't, and I'm sure it probably won't this time, but many soak testers did brick on stock JB builds through the normal OTA last December (and, strangely, Verizon distributed to non-testers right away, so it affected quite a few people.)
i just wanna know if its gonna have the white status bar and the new dialer basicly.
I wish I knew how to update rooted 4.4 (kept form 4.2.2 by instruction on xda). I do not care too much about preserving root because I have bootloader unlocked now.

You need to backup your apps and contacts, then flash back to factory image. Take the OTA, flash TWRP recovery, you will able to have root again.

We will find out soon, but David Schuster of Motorola said the icons were white about a month ago on Google+. He didn't say anything about the dialer. When somebody asked if it would be 4.4.2 or 4.4.3he said don't worry,we've got you covered. Implying, I guess, that it is 4.4.3 or that any bugs fixed in 4.4.3 for the nexus are already fixed in the update.

If you're referring to the dialer with search funtionality, I believe that is still exclusive to the Nexus 5 (natively, of course there's sideload options).

First, plug phone into computer, and install updater software from the phone that is on the device in 'Installer Mode'. Take the download on the PC, then follow directions below, and you can still have root after.

Hi again,
I installed the upgrade assistant in installer mode but for some reason it is not picking up the new NE9 update on my computer. See attached print screen. Very strange.. It sees the update on my phone to download though.:cyclops: Do you know why this is and how I can get it to see the update on the upgrade assistant as you mentioned?
Kind Regards
Can you explain why you want the update so bad? You do realize that rooting and accepting official otas is completely contradictory, correct? OTAs are generally what fix things like what towelroot exploits. If you accept official OTA, you will likely lose root.
But can't I just re root after the ota? I guess the reason I want the Ota because I heard of camera enhancements and stability fixes

No. OTA have patches for known security flaws as well. The flaw that towelroot relies on is closed after the new OTA. Meaning, no more root.
edit: in this case I believe folks have figured out a work around for keeping root with the update. In general though, if you value root and what it provides you do not accept official releases.

@ks3rv3rg I believe the links mentioned above provide a workaround for the Root to be kept after updating.
As for the problem nick, I can't help you there. I haven't personally take it as I see taking OTA's is silly with a rooted phone you can modify to be much more. Perhaps someone else who has done it will chime in...
Thank you both for your perspectives.. Plus, I can always just wait for a ROM that currently has the update installed.

I just turned on my phone a few minutes ago and saw the update.
Honestly, I wanted to check here on the XDA forum first to see who installed the UPDATE for the phone, because frankly, after the recent Lollipop UPDATE that Google sent out to their Nexus line of devices, and the HUGE DRAMA with system BUGS, I'm leaning toward conservative -- even though I know this isn't a Lollipop O/S update.
UPDATE: I found the link on T-Mobile's website, and they say, "This update provides Chinese language support"
https://support.t-mobile.com/docs/DOC-18152
Went ahead and allowed the update to be applied but because I have already rooted it the update wouldn't take.

Just a few more days and I will get home to my Edge that is sitting in its box. After setting it up I am going to use your root method.
Saw the update this morning when I got up and this popped up in the googletron. I know it's for the Note 4 but I'm wondering if any of this garbage will happen post update... Anyone have any issues like stated in the article?
http://www.tmonews.com/2014/12/t-mo...e-malware-installing-apps-without-permission/
Please note that I am not rooted yet, had an issue with my accelerometer with my first Edge and I'm giving this a few weeks to see if anything crops up first.
My girl got this is morning. Nothing on my phone but i havent check either. I always wait until i get the info on xda first.
But with it just being language support i doubt i will be looking for it.
But im also willing to bet its a patch for something and they just dont want to say so.

That would be step -1 (step negative 1) right before step 0... You will start by flashing via Odin the newest NK3 firmware... Then continue the whole guide. Any questions, just ask.

Thanks for posting this! I was unable to update to Lollipop over Wifi/OTA. AT&T was of no help, the Samsung rep at Best Buy just looked confused when I asked if they could flash my phone (He said he'd download the latest version, but didn't think 5.x would be available yet). I had ever used Odin before, but installation was easy, and my phone seems much faster. Battery life seems a little worse tho.

Did you use Titanium to restore your stuff? or just started from scratch both times?
Where did you get files to downgrade from? Many people wanting this update and mine was forced. Hate it. My phone is now sluggish, battery life severely affected and the modem is crap. I can't even send a text message from my house. All these issues were non existent before upgrade.

For any users of the 6045O device from Cricket Do Not!! use Mobile Upgrade Q to revert back to 5.0.2. IT will not work. Just tried and it upgraded me to 6.0.1. If you want to revert back you MUST use the Eluga Switch program.

If you want to update just let the update come. It'll be automatic. The reason I was using Mobile Upgrade Q is because my phone was rooted and I was returning to cricket firmware. I need the partitions for the cricket variant to get my phone working again.

It's also been close to 3 months later so with updates to the program things might change. Since I don't have the phone anymore I can't test old versus new so all I can say is good for you and hopefully it continues to work for you if you run across any issues.

I hope that there is continued support for the Idol 3. It was a good phone to me and I loved it. I was going to get the Idol 4, but for the price the phone internals weren't worth it. At 299 the Idol 4 would've been perfectly priced.
