Great point.

I just did the update, and I had no problems re-rooting it.

Do you still can downgrade to lollipop?

I haven't tried, so I don't know. The update said something about not being able to downgrade, but I don't know if it actually locks it or not.

Try to flash it in odin, then as soon as your phone reboots hold vol +, home, and power. See if that will let you boot into TWRP

Already did that
Boots into stcok recovery0

It might be not possible to downgrade to Lollipop and or PE3

Similar situation. So I manually updated. I downloaded the MF3 package from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2358763 and use the stock recovery to update and now it works.

Do you think there's another way to update without doing that?

Because your phone is being used on T-Mobile, your update will come from T-Mobile. Pretty sure that is what the axman was saying. I had a tmo phone on att at one point and got my updates from att....
I'm not sure how that works for our device, so you may not get an update at all from Tmo. But yes in general your update would come from tmo.

I haven't gotten the update either. I'm on an ATT i337 running Tmo SIM. Kies still says I'm current, and I've tried changing my phone's date to August 1st and still no update. If I'm on an ATT phone but using Tmo, will the OTA update work from Settings?
I don't want to root my phone until I get this update.

the latest update blocks root. if you want to update to a just recently rooted MF3 version, check out this link.

I appreciate the reference to the other thread, but I really don't want to spend the time jumping through those hoops. I'm hoping for an easy firmware update now, then a root method sometime down the line.

then keep an eye out on http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares for an MF3 tar release. once it drops you can flash via odin without root access
I'm confused. Will I receive the update through Settings->About Device->Software Update, or will I have to update it through Kies?
EDIT: Just noticed that I can't check for an update for another 1269 hours!!!

Wonder why we haven't got it yet
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using Tapatalk 4 Beta
correct me if i'm wrong here.. i thought i read from that it's best not to do OTA updates if your usage preferences rely on root and/or custom roms and kernels.. i only use odin because from what i understand, that is usually the safest way to fully wipe and restore/upgrade/downgrade mobile devices running android. am i wrong? curious.

As long as you've got a custom recovery installed, you should be able to install a ROM. Just wipe system etc and install a new one. Ota updates only work on stock recovery as far as I know.

Is there anyway to downgrade G935TUVU3APG1 to G935TUVU2APD7
Did updating to the newest patch make your phone experience constant app crashing and resets??

You can't because of the different in the bootloader PG1 is V3 and PD7 is V2. If you try it your phone will be stuck and then you will have to reodin PG1 or higher for it to work.

Issues upgrading to 6.2

I have a 2015 16GB version that's running stock rooted ROM. I've never had issue with OTA upgrades in the past but 6.2 doesn't install.
It goes through the process but doesn't seem to upgrade because it keeps prompting me to upgrade.
I believe that the issue is because of root. So I would like to know if there is an easier way of unrooting and getting OTA instead of going completely back to stock?
