Hi!
Today ICS for TPH (unbranded) was released according to @SamKiesUpdates and sort after I began receiving a update message from Software Update service asking to update (When I bought the phone I in my naiveness turn the options on on Settings->About->Software Update).
Software update never asked me for nothing and every time I did a check for update it said none until today.
My question is: Is there a way to stop it from asking? I can postpone the update up until 7 days but the icon saying that it was postponed stays nagging
Also does anyone know the download folder for the service in case it has download the ROM update?

Pretty simple...Go to settings-->about phone-->Software Update-->Uncheck Auto update and Push message option...Probably reboot if required.
And that should do it.
Don't forget to hit the thanks button if it helped.
Thanks for the tip, it helped but wasn't enough...
I had to go also to Settings->Applications->Manage Application->All->Software Update and do a Clear Data
Then I rebooted just to be sure... and it stopped
Please set it again and dont clear data.
Hi there, i updated my S2 to 4.03 in April with ther official Tmobile UK update via Kies.
I have read on a few sites recently about 4.04 being out and that it makes further improvements. Well yesterday i connected my phone to Kies and was informed there was an update due so i went throught he whole update process and when complete it shows my phone as still being on 4.03.
At the end of the update my phone had all my apps, contacts, pics, everything still on phone. I did not have to reinstall anything. Kies now shows that i have latest firmware but i can see no difference.
Kies reports firmware as PDA:LPD / Phone:LPB / CSC:LPD (TMU)
Anyone had anything similar and bottom line is did i get an update or not.
Thanks for any help.
LPD is quite an "old"-ish ROM, if we can say so (check here for details: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1544487).
The Build Date is 8th May 2012.
I have found LPG to be the most stable version of 4.0.3 (Build date: 24 May 2012).
Looks like we're gonna have to wait a while longer for 4.0.4 (I meant worldwide coverage for it cause as far as I have found out this latest LPO for NEE is quite alright).
Cheers,
Mihai

There was an update for Kies (just the program you run on your computer) lately, are you sure it wasn't just that?
SNAP!!
Hi guys,
I just went throught the same update issue. I had already upgraded to 4.0.3 earlier this year - but I have been experiencing problems with the phone simply turning itself off at random times and needing to have it's battery removed and reinserted to get it going again.
I e-mail Samsung support and got advised to do a firmware upgrade via kies.
So I did - and lowe and behold it found an update and duely installed it - but I am still showing droid version as 4.0.3 and I can see no difference what at all.
I also didn't need to reinstall any apps etc - so exactly what is going on?
Have samsung realised that they made a mistake with the initial release of ICS and applied a patch?
I've got my fingers crossed that what ever it is, it will hopefully stop the phone turning itself off.
Meanwhile I have e-mailed samsung back to ask exactly what was in the update - if I get anything back I'll post it on here.
Samsungs latest firmware is on 4.0.3.
When upgrading with Kies, none of your apps and personal data is tempered with. Just the system is updated and the rest is left untouched.
So, yes, your're upgraded to the latest firmware.

All, have been reading the news about the imminent S-OFF - very exciting! Saw the references to the new OTA update and decided to check my DInc4G to see if I had it yet since I don't recall any notifications about it. Went to Settings>Software update and touched "Check new". After about 15 seconds of "Checking for new Software update available now." popup, it dissappears and goes right back to the Software Update menu - no errors, nothing about no updates being available...
So then I touch "Status" and get the following: Status popup with the following field's/values:
Source: Verizon Wireless
Name: {blank}
Status: {blank}
Code: 0
Date: {blank}
Time: {blank}
Description: {blank}
Does that strike anyone as odd? How am I supposed to tell whether or not I have the update? I don't have another DInc4G to compare it to which is why I'm asking here.
BTW, I never tried to root this phone - got wind of the locked bootloader before I got around to trying...
Any help greatly appreciated,
Chris

this is normal, my son-in-law went through the same thing, he finally got the update, but he did call verizon support, don't know if that had anything to do with it or not. they also told him to do a factory reset, about an hour later he got the update.
settings | about |software information
if you've gotten the update you will have 4.0.4 for android and 4.1 for htc sense
That is what it should say. My said the same thing prior to the update, it is normal. Go into software info in settings, it should still say - "Android 4.0.3, Sense 4.0"
That will let you know if you still have original purchased software version.

Looks like you beat me to this
OK so I did see that I'm still on 4.0.3 and sense 4.0. Is the check for software update behavior also normal? (no response and acting as if I didn't initiate a check)

No boot loader access after ROM update?

Thanks for the info/link - applied this update manually yesterday and confirmed it was applied in Settings>About>Software Information.
I may now have a need to reapply this update (an app appears to have gotten corrupted somehow and uninstalling/reinstalling it didn't help). I figured it wouldn't be too painful (this update did wipe out all user data/settings) to just start over since I had only applied the update a few hours prior. However, I can no longer get to the boot loader pressing volume down/power. Does anyone know if something in this update prevents getting back to the boot loader? Is it possibly because it knows that update has already been applied?
BTW, the app in question is Skype. I was successfully doing a video call when someone called my cell phone. It put the video call on hold when this happened. After finishing the cell call and trying to go back to the Skype video call, I could no longer get the video side to work. Tried reinitiating the call, but never got audio/video working at the same time. Tried rebooting, reinstalling Skype, no joy. Was going to try reflashing this ROM but now I can't get back to the boot loader.
Any insights greatly appreciated...

Yes, I did see that suggestion and tried it yesterday but it didn't help. To add to the mystery, I tried to get into the boot loader again this morning and for whatever reason, it let me in so I proceeded with the re-flash. Haven't had a chance to try Skype again yet though.
Thanks,
Chris

Very welcome, glad you got back into bootloader
My device keeps saying "Current software is up to date, you may check again in X hours"...
The issue is AT&T released Lollipop version 5.1.1 in late October, and now it's mid December;
and I still haven't received any update notification and keep getting "Current software is up to date".
My Device says I am running version 5.0. Is there something i should do or am missing?
Device Information:
Model - SAMSUNG-SM-G870A.
Android Version - 5.0.
Carrier: AT&T.
Random Information (Might be useful?)
I have more than 10GB free space.
All my apps are up to date.
Did Recovery mode> Wiped cache
Anyone here running a Galaxy S5 Active from AT&T also experiencing this problem?
A buddy was running the same issue. Turned out that the update is not always kept on the server. They pull it off after awhile.

He ended up calling in about it and they tried to push it to his device but it kept failing. They would up sending him a new device.
I think they pulled the Android 10 update. I had the upgrade to Android 10 pending on my phone since it dropped. It randomly rebooted on its own while in my pocket (had to unlocked screen to complete boot). Fearing the worst I checked the OS version and found I was still on Android 9 with the November security update. When I check for updates, it says I'm up-to-date.
Did anyone else hold off on upgrading to Android 10 and found the update missing from their phone today?

Yep they pulled it.... I flashed back to Android 9 last night (due to wanting to install the Jan Sec patch) ...thinking I'd see the immediate update when returning back to the Android setup. I thought it was a fluke so I flashed again. Nope... they definitely pulled it.
I had to sideload the Android 10 OTA to install it via ADB.
