The correct answer is No. While this "leaked firmware" seams to have fixed the GPS issue we do not know when it will be pushed out. Based on what I am seeing, it appears to be early beta quality. Figure a couple weeks to flush out issues, ship to the carriers, then the a couple weeks for them to certify it before pushing it out....basically I would say at least a month. However, this "leaked" firmware could be old as well and the carriers may already have it and we could start getting update notices tomorrow. The answer is, nobody on this forum actually knows.

Thank for your reply and i know no one here know for sure when it will come but then again i thought someone has more latest news then myself
Has anyone ripped the GPS fix from the leaked rom? I would like to try it but don't want to flash to the leaked firmware.

For you. I get unavailable messages. So its not a "for sure" thing. Unless i am doing it wrong.
GPS does not work for me either. After flashing I am seeing 12 satelites. All sats have an snr of 15-25 with zero locked.
I was able to get into lbstestmode using a market app called any cut. All of my settings are set to stock.
It appears that this update is not 100%. If anyone has any suggestions I'm all ears.
op, if you are asking a question please put a question mark in your title so you dont waste peoples time with misleading thread titles. thanks

Actually, your thinking of the Fascinate, since we all know that Verizon delays more then anyone else.
We would probably see Gingerbread first of the US carriers.

I beg to differ. I will fight you tooth and nail that T-Mobile will be the last to push the update. As many Android phones that I have been through with T-Mobile and waiting for empty promises; ummm.....yeah.

if you actually read the release info about the "promised gb update", you'd have read the part about how the US variants are on a different timeline, and if you had been here during the whole 2.1 -> 2.2 update debacle, you'd have known that all these timeline "promises" ONLY apply the the international galaxy s phones.

Hi
It has been a while since last galaxy s2 got an official update ?!
dose anyone know why ?
world wide no any official update since the arrival of Kh3 which was a month and a week ago ?
we usual got updates every 1 to 2 weeks ?!
2.3.5 is on its way.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk
so that is why updates stoped ?
and i didnt hear that 2.3.5 will be released to galaxy s2 are you sure ?
ice cream's on the way
I'm still waiting for the official 2.3.4 update (I have an unlocked phone from the UK). The current firmware has a weird bug that causes the data connection to occasionally drop... So I'm hoping the next update fixes this.
will 2.3.5 be official to galaxy s2 ?

Is something broken in hk3 that needs to be updated? Or do you simply want an update because its simply newer?
and is there any release date ?

I had a phone die from bad Samsung officially released FW after a KIES update. Plus Samsung wouldn't support it even though it was "incorrectly placed by them", and given the green light for my region (and I went through the finger pointing game between Samsung/carrier)
Odin is definitely the way to go. You get a million times better support from here over Samsung if anything goes wrong...

And you need bug fixes/new features/more battery life updates every week? Download cm7, you'll get updates everyday.
i think it take again a while before an update comes! i don't get it the big successor of samsung and sgs1 again first an update!
Ehh...so far no one really answered the OPs question. Obviously he knows there are custom solutions out there but he simply asked about an official Kies update. I am on XEU as well and am frustrated by the lack of an official update in over 2 months. Unfortunately, I don't think anyone is going to be able to give you any reason why there hasn't been updates or any information on when one may be coming. Samfirmware isn't really official and I haven't seen any quotes from an official Samsung source like their twitter. Seems like we just have to wait and suffer with the battery bug and the data connection issues...
I'm also very disappointed with speed of Samsung in releasing new updates. Anyway now I have HTC Sensation for test (Czech) and Android is still 2.3.3, but in Germany it is 2.3.4
So I would like to mainly ask Google to step into this jungle and make some order. Otherwise, I think people will turn to iOS or WM 7.5, where updates are more clear...
My phone has recently just started to turn off randomly. It will do this whether the battery is full or lower. It hasn't done this if it is plugged in to an AC outlet, but I believe it has done this before when plugged into a computer. I push the awake button but don't get any response. I hold down the power button for about ten seconds to reset it. Any ideas on why this is dong this? It just started doing this about a month ago and I have had the phone since I bought it new about a year and a half ago.

Usually when someone knowledgeable of the issue replies in the thread, they give a little more in depth answer than just a one word reply. I'm not trying to have a drawn out phone-like conversation on the issue, just an answer. He was being curt on purpose. No hard feelings though
And there wasn't a reason for me to think that a new update would cause my phone to turn off in sleep mode. I did a search and nothing came up. Even if I looked in that thread, I would have to have to go through 4 pages of banter to see the issue brought up.
I think this is a big enough issue to warrant it's own thread. Most people have stock ROM (maybe not on this site) and update to the newest software version when prompted to on their phone. But like I said, no hard feelings. Just want to get a limelight on this and get it resolved.

I downloaded the update OTA. I haven't used KIES for an update in awhile. Looks like I'll have to live with it until a new update comes out.. No reason to think they wouldn't provide an update to fix the issue promptly.

So you clearly didn't look in the thread with the title 4.0.4 in it, being the issue started when you upgraded to this firmware ....
And if they didn't bother fixing an issue with the kernel that can hard brick a device just from wiping, why would they fix this issue?

No gps, you also need to modify \META-INF\com\google\android\updater-script and find "hltetmo" and change it for "hltevzw" before flashing the ROM.

Maybe repost or retitle this for ATT ?? ... seems to not fit in VZW forum when it doesn't actually work with VZW.
if this doesn't work, please delete this post. OP could have led me down wrong path
There has been allot of people lately with good intentions
I'm sure ,but flash anything and post how to post with zero testing. The darklord verizon thread is a perfect example.I've been comparing different things on multiple verizon notes on Verizon and other carriers side by side to see what works and don't and there has been so many similar post. I'm no developer and don't want to be but hate to see people mislead others in the wrong direction and possibly ruin their only phone I don't care about most of mine since I have allot of them.anyways sorry for jacking the thread but I would change op to state only tested on what ever carrier before saying stable as ****
sms, gps, etc issues on Verizon at least can be resolved by flashing the latest baseband via Odin.

OK, maybe speaking for myself at least, flashing the baseband got me a working phone. I appreciate the input, what instances would this not work that you've tested?
i'm planning to buy a new phone and this one is one of the choices ....
i'm outside US, and i knew that H820 is factory unlocked and their LTE bands are compatible with my region, also i knew it's and AT&T model IIRC..
one thing i didnt get is the unlocking code is giving after purchasing , and i dont know if it's easy or hard to use for someone outside US.
does it got N upgrade or not yet ? this is one of the important features i want and i'd feel bad if it's not upgraded till now -or sometimes in the future-
any other thing i should know bout?
