Samsung Kies update? - Samsung Galaxy Light Questions & Answers

So i'm running the Tigerlilly Rom at the moment and was going to do a phone backup through Kies 3. I plug my phone in and it says it has a software update... All it says is that its OH3, and I'm updating it now. I'll let you guys know what it is. Also does anyone else get this with stock?

okay so its still kitkat 4.4.2, I'm not sure what the difference is to be honest

May be security patches I did see it flash up on my wife's device last night but I have no details for it. If I find anything I edit this post.

[Q] Update Or Not?!?!

Hi Guys, my phone has: PDA: KG1 / PHONE: KG1 / CSC: KG2 (XEF)
ANDROID VERSION: 2.3.3
KERNEL VERSION: 2.6.35.7-I9100XWKG1-CLlabeltest_I9100XWKG1
my problem is when i run the software update of the phone it say that "NO UPDATE AVAILABLE" I try and with the kies software but tha same.
And know tha 2.3.4 came before a long time ago, and mine is at 2.3.3!!!
What do you suggest me to do?!?!?! to wait if my phone sometime will update?! or to do something else to get the official updates!!!
Thanks.
Well... if what you are talking about are the OTA updates on the phone... then its possible that it wont work because of your carrier, have you tried Kies?... and of course you could always use Odin

Yes i tried kies but it says that i have the latest update (2.3.3)!!!
sorry about the question what is odin?!?!?! ( i am new with android phones)
Well I don't know about what carrier or what country we are talking about. But here in Denmark we had 2.3.4 from KI4 undtil recently where they updated us to 2.3.5 KI8... But it sounds a little extreme for you to be stuck on 2.3.3
Don't update. Go out and play.

What if you don't get an update? I was a stubborn man with the same issue, but I broke when there was no update for my country officially, now if I could do that you also could, rather should update to 2.3.5. I hope you know the Odin method. And of course it's a worth upgrade.
Then install CM7. It's 2.3.7. I think you're big enough to take this decision yourself. If you're not, do a NAND backup, try a ROM and if you don't like it, you revert to your original one.
P.S.: those numbers don't worth much... you won't see a difference.

That's actually your build number, which is fine. You need to look at your system version. It should be something like 6.11.744.XT910 or something along those lines.
Check that and report back.
the version is 651.73.19.XT910.NonEFIGSRetail.en.EU

you don't have an update yet.
The recent update for the XT910 was only for the 651.73.15, .16, .17, .18 versions.
It looks like Bulgaria is not on the list, and it might be because of the language on the phone.
The update was recent, December 31st, so you may see it being sent OTA soon, but for now, it looks like you're up to date.
Thanks.So for now I cant put any roms ?
Hi, Just received my new Razr today in U.K. Had OTA update to 651.73.30.en.eu. All downloaded fine.
Cheers.

No, you should be able to still put ROM's on there.
Just to make sure, you're rooted, right??
I believe there are no fastboot files yet for the .19 version, at least that's what I was reading, so instead of just straight loading a ROM on top of this, I would go the safestrap route. This will allow you to load a secondary ROM and access both.
My understanding is while the .18 & .19 versions are different, they're not so different it will block you from loading a ROM.
It should be the same process as ever, root, safestrap, then enable safestrap mode, and flash the ROM.
If you get an error, report back and let me know what it is, and I MIGHT be able to help you through it.

just install motocast on your PC, plug your RAZR in and check for device updates and it will update your device to xxxxx.30 version...works for all people I gave advice to...and I previously had xxxxx.19 version...I am from Europe-Czech republic
better performance and battery is now usable for 2 whole days with wifi on...

Follow the downgrade instructions, root it, bootstrap it and use all the roms you want. I think that's what you need to do.

Lollipop 5.0 update dissapeared?

Hello XDA,
I got a notification earlier for the 5.0 update. Clicked to install it, my phone restarted and nothing happened. I'm still on 4.4.2 kit-kat.
What gives? When I click search for update, it says my system is up to date.
Any ideas as to whats going on?
Thanks!
It might have been zv6 or a carrier update but as far as lollipop sprint hasn't posted its been released

Before you install it, PLEASE post what the update is called. It'll be in /cache/fota.
That way autoprime can link to it.

This, I believe, is why you can't see any contents in /cache/fota. I think you have to grant root access to ES FE to see those files.
it just happened again, got the notification. clicked install. phone restarted (saw the little blue bar and the android guy during the update), and now its still 4.4.2...

Nothing here yet.
Same thing happened here.
Saw the update on my notification. Tapped on it. Saw the sized (600mb+). Phone restarted. Nothing happened...still in 4.4.2 and system update says my phone is up to date.
Stock zv6 rom no root.
I am rooted. And I saved the file. Its just over 600megs and is called update.zip.

[new update] i545vrugof1

There is now a method to update while keeping root. See here
source: http://www.androidpolice.com/2015/0...xy-s4-with-stagefright-patch-and-other-fixes/
this is still 5.0.1 (hence the LRX22C build number) but it fixes the Stagefright vuln as well as other stuff
or it's supposed to fix stagefright... lol. good ol sammy.
anyway, if you want root, don't take this update. be patient.
let the discussion begin!
Hope nobody update this before someone capture it, patience..

eh. that didnt really matter.
i have a feeling the conflict with kingroot on oc1 was samsung's auto-updating SELinux stuff. no user intervention, it just runs in the background. although those updates make the samsung keyboard not exploitable. lol.
you have options: root, or have a secure phone. you can't have both.

LRX22C means nothing here (it just signifies 5.0.1, which is what most people are already running). It's what's at the tail end of the build number that counts - OF1. Reread the thread title, the OP and the linked article.

What's StageFright?
So being the n00b that I am, just to clarify, there is no functioning root for the Verizon Galaxy S4 with the specs i have (shown in my updated signature) short of using Odin and reloading 4.0?
Sir_Eagle said:

i'll try and sum it up
it was a security vulnerability discovered by jduck (Josh Drake) and, basically, someone can send you a malformed video through the MMS protocol and basically, malware would leak into your phone through that video message if it automatically downloaded.
the exploit specifically targets a system lib called "libstagefright.so" (clever name, eh?) and that library handles everything related to video playback. i think.
if you're not going to install of1, the best way to patch it right now would be to disable automatic downloading of mms messages through your messaging client. chompSMS has its own dealio with stagefright tho, and i've been using chomp for forever, so, yea.

uhm
well
if you took oc1 via ota, you could try to root using kingroot desktop, that seems to have mixed results.
if you have the nk4 bootloader, you can downgrade to nc5 and root that using towelroot (easiest method ever)
you can't downgrade to kitkat if you took oc1 via ota
Bren caught the update, but is still uploading it. Hopefully kingroot or something else will get root for others.

honestly, you could "fix" stagefright yourself by disabling automatic downloading of mms in your app
or if you use chomp, they already have their own fix in place

New Firmware G900TUVS1FOL1

I got an OTA notification this morning to install G900TUVS1FOL1. Went ahead an applied the OTA update and everything seems to be running much better than before. A lot of the lag that I was seeing before is now gone. No word on battery life as I only had the update installed for about 12 hours. Figured I would let people know that there is a new update available. Haven't seen much information posted about it.
I am unrooted BTW, so I can't really answer any questions about that.

I've had no lag or any of the problems that I normally run into on stock roms.
I'm rooted on stock 4.4.2. What's the best way to take this one (do I need to get up to a 5.0.x first, etc.), and preserve root?

hello have a galaxy s5 T-Mobile sm-g900t like that if it were possible postasse how he rootear your most detailed device if the model is the same as mine, have android 5.1.1 g900TUVS1FOL1 from already thank excuse my English'm from Brazil.
Hey gang!
I have the metropcs variant (G900t1) of the Galaxy s5. I downloaded the .tar file. I wiped my phone first (twice for good measure) and rebooted to download mode via TWRP. I *did* uncheck the auto reboot box because I hears odin acts funny around OTA's. After the reboot was done, my phone got stuck on he splash screen for a while. I popped out my battery.
for the record, not a noob but leery about regaining root using cf autoroot.
XDA, check me on this. I want to do this right. =)
I updated via Kies earlier this afternoon. So far it's very snappy.
