hi all. i plugged my phone into my computer to transfer music. and i forgot motocast loads up when the phone is connected.
and it offered me an update to my razr.
i am running 651.197.19.XT910.en.EU and it offered me 651.197.21.XT910.en.EU.
i checked the change log and it says its only for german networks.
what should i do? just being curious
I've got it too. Those release notes are actually for 167.19, Germany is the only EN.eu market in which 2.3.6 has been released thus far. Installing now, will try and grab the zip.
It's a small update, just 15MB.
Any noticeable changes? I doubt it if its a whole 15mb.
Although when I ota its not there. Any reason?
Or is it due to location somehow?

Haven't noticed any changes thus far, assume it's just a minor maintenance update. Doubt it's a regional thing (especially given my location), just seems to have been pushed out via desktop rather than OTA.
Will give it a proper day's use tomorrow and see how it goes.

Moto Cast offered me thus update too here in France, so I installed it and it works fine, i don't notice any difference for the moment, we'll see. But considering the minor change in number: from .19 to .21, i think it's a really minor update.
pfff.... I got nothing as usually.... :-/
I had an issue with mobile data not appearing. But it seems to have cured itself. So far with 10 hours up time and medium usage I have 80% left. And I have been in a signal dead zone a bit too. So not bad. Maybe having a new update has given a "placebo" effect.
Next up ics ....please motorola. Lol

Nothing here.
If people have still not received the 4.2.2 OTA update, try disabling (location services) I've never turned mine on at all. I'm no expert but give it a try. Mine showed up last night at exactly 8.30 pm GMT.

It's not based on location. People have been reporting the upgrade here on the west coast U. S. Since the 11th. My son just got it on the 13th for his n10, my n10 still has nothing as does his n4 and the wife's n7. Who knows the order of the rollout.....???? Seems like they really have it throttled back.... 3 days in the same area and some have it and others don't.

As other have said, I don't think its location based.
If it was, I'm in Bucks and got mine last night.
I did reset the Google Framework stuff a couple times though.

Will give it some more time , already manually installed it on mine cant be bothered doing it on the missus's though in case i bork it.
No more sudden-restarting? No more crashs? No more passive-notification-led? :/
-----------------------------
Well, the Notification-led it's fine now... o/
Anyone in the UK who isn't getting the update:
Go to settings>apps>all>Google Services Framework>clear data>force stop then check for an update. It should say last checked 1970.
Repeat until the update appears. It will appear eventually using this method.
I just cleared data and rebooted straight away.. Update came through!

I'm looking to trade up and exchange my current 16gb to the 32gb before my 14 days is up. What I want with this thread is for EVERY POSSIBLE USER that has received their 32gb S4 to confirm whether or not it came with the ME7 update. This will help myself and hopefully a few others decide whether or not it is in our best interest to make the switch or just buy and SD Card to help us sleep a little better at night. Personally, I like the latest and greatest and the more memory the better. I have no problem filling up space (not intended to be a fat joke). Please post if your 32gb S4 came with the updated ME7 or under.
Thank you!
I got mine yesterday it didn't have the update. Rooted and loked right now.

No new firmware here either. Shows April date for current stuff.
Thanks for the few replies. Anyone else with the 32gig version please feel free to chime in.
Are you getting it online or in store? I've thought of this as well and figured i would do it in store but ask them to power on the device and look for myself first. But I'm sure a root method will eventually turn up.

I traded up to the 32GB, arrived today via FedEx. Did not come with the update installed, but did download it immediately OTA as soon as I activated it. That said, you have the option not to install it once it downloads.

Got mine today and when it gained 4G after setup it tried to download the update.
I blocked it by rooting real fast and doing the following.
Go to /cache/fota and delete the update.zip and then remove the permissions on the /fota folder the update can't download.
Here's what it does.. Both of my 32G came with MDK.. but both of them downloaded the ME7 update OTA when I activated the phones on my Sim cards and got it set up. However it gives u the option to install now or install later. If u don't want to update then hit install later..

Same, I just opened the box and got it set up. :good:
Same as others. You won't see the update on them until they get the next batch in. If you are looking to get one , the time is now.

Oh yeah, didn't have the update, got mine on Friday. Although it did download the update, I just set the time to install the next day, then I put a custom ROM on this beast

Got mine on Wednesday. They were setting it up at the store and I could see the update loading. He had to pull the battery to do something with the SIM card, so the update stopped, and when the phone came back on (he was still setting it up to activate) he did something to delay the update.
The next morning, after having the phone on the charger all night (but shut off), when I turned it on in the morning, it was installing the update (must have somehow downloaded the rest overnight (but the phone was off? ). So I just let it go.
Didn't have much of a chance to do much with the phone besides downloading my apps the first day and setting up my go launcher settings, so having the update day 2,I couldn't tell any difference.
But this phone is a ton snappier than my old phone -HTC Rezound, and loving it so far. My main reason to root in the past was to get the latest version of Android, since HTC and Verizon neglected my old phone. This one has the latest version already and with 32gb internal, I'm not concerned with the bloat...
I ordered a 32GB S4 via Verizon's website on 7/26 and it was still on the VRUAMDK software version. Luck of the draw I suppose!

Some of us want more than just root. If Loki had been patched by the time I purchased my S4, I would've returned it day 1.

How much was the 32gb? I got my s4 16gb a few days ago and it was like $249 upgrade price at verizon store with $50 mail in rebate :crying:
I did my phone upgrade via flywire.com
The phone arrived without the sim card installed.
I left the sim card out
Rooted it, twrp, installed apps via wifi, froze SDM using titanium backup, made a nandroid backup, installed cleanROM.
One can do a lot without inserting the sim card.
Samsung asks to download something initially (over wifi) , and when booting up after performing a data reset. I always said NO just in case it was the dreaded ME7 update
Online order here. It came with it.
It looks like T-Mobile has resumed the GS5 software update, but now it's NE6 instead of NE5 (the version that was pulled). I was able to update via Kies. I'm not really noticing anything new as compared to the NCH firmware that the phone shipped with, so I guess it's just a bugfix release. I can verify, though, that my LTE speeds seem perfectly normal, so I guess NE6 fixed whatever that problem was in NE5. Even though there aren't any new features, bugfixes are always welcome.

Compared with NCH? They updated the fingerprint scanner to be faster, got rid of the delay when waking the phone, and made it a lot faster overall IMO.
Interesting. Dies the fingerprint scanner actually work more than 50% of the time now? lol

NE6 seemed to have fixed the issue I was having with data drops. I haven't had to toggle airplane mode all day.

Well for me it worked closer to 80-90%. Now it's almost 100%. They must have made it less accurate though because sometimes even I think I swiped wrong and it still got it.
EDIT: Wow that was bad grammar. I'm not going to bother with it...you get the point

God I hope so. That's been one of the biggest pains for me.
So far, so good. No data drops, good DL speeds and a wifi calling toggle added just like in NE5.

I upgraded yesterday. Haven't experienced any downfalls from it, so that's a plus at least. It does seem a little faster, but I don't know if that's just a placebo effect. We will see how it performs over the next few days.

I updated yesterday haven't noticed any difference from NCH I don't use the fingerprint scanner thing but everything else seems just as fast or theoretically faster. Battery life checks out.
Kies still tells me that ANE5 is the latest firmware....
Nothing OTA
Does this update break root possibility? I am unrooted but don't want to upgrade and lose the ability to root later if I choose to.

It's not placebo. It is faster. This update was pushed to the international phones a while ago. It improved the camera, fingerprint sensor, and the overall lag. That's why it was ~185mb.

No, as long as we have an unlocked bootloader, rooting will be possible.
Thanks aooga. That's what I thought... Just wanted to double check
Got it last night. Haven't played with everything yet, but it's definitely faster and more responsive! Battery life seems to be much better too. When performing a fast reboot, the list of running background apps is about half of what it used to be. Also, connection with the Gear 2 neo is stronger.

Not yet
Not showing in Kies for me yet either (and rooted so can't do OTA check). Anyone know of if it's a phased rollout to Kies like a regular OTA is?
Anyone having issues with lte speeds on this newer version
Sent from my SGH-M919 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Working very well. My LTE performance is back up to expectations and results from the Speed Test app that was performed before and after I had upgraded to the prior update. This update really has this phone working well!
Now for KitKat 4.4.3 :fingers-crossed:
This is supposed to fix the MMS bug right? That's been by far my only problem with the S5. If it also speeds up the camera, wake, etc, that's great as well.
And I guess I'll have to use KIES finally, as I can't manually pull it yet, unless someone has the zip!
Edit: Kies is grabbing it for me. Kies has sure cleaned up since the last time I used it a couple of years ago... I'm really hoping this fixes the MMS problem. Literally half the time, if I send a group message, I don't get all the responses. I activated my iPhone again for the time being pending this update.
Just installed a new uppdate. Cant see anything new other than its more responsive and faster!

Was this update BOG2 or BOK1? I see the latter on Sammobile, released for SK Telecom and "Unknown".
I had manually installed BOG2 months back, so wondering why it would be available OTA only now.

I took a chance and installed the BOK1 SK Telecom version on my Gear S bought in India. Went off well, and it does feel a bit snappier.
Also, I see an option in Gear Manager to forward calls from the Gear S to the phone (earlier, you could only forward from phone to the watch).
Anybody get their Gear S (with new update) to connect to a non-Samsung device running Android 6.0?
