Is this the one that fixes everything?!

This is not an Ota update right? I am enjoying [R3]BLURR3D V1.8 way to much to loose root.
P3droid released a mod to keep root on any updates.

and I hope that works, I did the exact same thing..
So, I am fearless.. Where can we get the update?
Have they actually gotten the update with a stock Bionic or did they find it online and decide to install it?
As far as I've seen, the current leaked OTA is 5.5.893....5.5.892 was being tested by the Motorola Field Testers and today a small update to 5.5.893 was released so I assume the Motorola Field Testers are now testing 5.5.893.
I wouldn't install anything till we at least have confirmation that it is the actual OTA...otherwise you might not be able to get future updates.

Has anyone updated to 891-893 after applying the "forever root" technique? If so experience?
Sent from my DROID BIONIC using xda premium
Well i tried and. . . I still have root. 5.5.893 with root
Sent from my DROID BIONIC using xda premium
I did the forever root along with the update and everything turned out fine.
Glad it worked

I am running 5.5.886 and whenever I check for updates it always says the phone is up to date. Is there any way to force it to discover the available update?
Sent from my DROID BIONIC using XDA App
When the update is pushed to your phone you will see it. It isn't pushed to everyone at the same time. It is done in batches.
I have been checking for the update on my phone constantly since yesterday. The waiting is killing me. Hoping to see this solve the data connection issues.

I just switched back to my Tbolt until the update comes through.
I too, am still waiting to get the update, running 5.5.886 and having connectivity issues as well, Verizon replaced my first unit when i started having this problem, but the new device still has the same issue... Hope this update fixes my $300 calculator.
I completely understand a scheduled push release so not everyone gets notified at once. But why make it so difficult for those that want to upgrade now.

It's been posted in another thread here in the forums, but don't worry - the update is going live tonight.
I just received my update.

Yup, the update is now pushing out across the land.
Happy updating, everyone.
Just got my update this morning. Forever root method worked.

Does anybody knows how to root bionic after this update? I lost root after the update

I read somewhere that forever root still works.

Disappearing update
Interestingly, I got a notification to download my update. I told it to download, attached it to Wifi to let it download. IT completed...and disappeared. As in it did not run, and it is not located in the /cache folder (hidden or visible).
Has anyone encountered this?
I am stock with 43v3r rooted, no frozen or deleted bloat. Didn't find a reference in the search or my Googlefu sucks today. I appreciate any help anyone can offer.
-------------------
Nm. Appears it would not run until I got to a good on-network signal. Then executed and updated properly. Still not sure where the file was hidden though...
http://www.engadget.com/2013/11/26/samsung-galaxy-gear-update/
The improved notifications is already part of the MK7 update, right? But hey, "improvement to the lift-and-pause gesture that activates the clock"... Good good... great! Can't wait to test that out.
Update: it is the US version of the MK7 update that was rolled out earlier in Europe.

I thought that too, but the improved wake up gesture? Didn't noticed anything about that in the MK7 version I installed last week.
It's in the mk7 release. Check the motions section of the settings panel.

You mean the option to wake up with the last used screen? I wouldn't call that an "improvement to the lift-and-pause gesture that activates the clock" (quote Engadget).
What about an SDK??? I would love to see way more apps for this thing
Whats the difference between the mk7 US version amd the UK version. I flashed the mk7 UK version on mine and im from US.

I would like to have any market app that we have been sideloading be able to be pulled down and installed in the Gear directly like Google Music. I hate having to reload it and all others every time there is an update. Perhaps a default music player and video player would be awesome.

What's the odds it happens this week?

I read 11/29.
I wonder how this will come about. Will they have to release a new version of Gear Manager? I never updated to the 1.5 version so just wondering what to look for since I don't want to install the version again without the US firmware update. I know I can always turn to XDA to get the news too

Im still waiting for it too; Im in the Bay Area and my 14th day return expires close of business tomorrow.
I saw elsewhere we will get it on 11/29. Looking forward to it!
I was about to do the UK update since Sammy as usual drags their feet to support US customers. But given its supposed to arrive tomorrow I will just wait another day, can't hurt.
As for the Gear Manager, where do we update that? Is it part of the Samsung Hub app in the Samsung folder?

Gear Manager should update on the phone, and to the latest version. Swipe down from top of screen, click on Samsung Galaxy Gear, then click on the name of your device, then click Software Update, then click Update and agree to check for a new one. Latest version should end in MK7. This is what broke the Exchange email notifications for many, or all, of us in the USA. Hopefully they update the Gear software and this phone software, as I heard both must happen to get Exchange back and working.
Did anyone notice that the GM had a new date today and yestersay but it looks like the same version. Can someone verify? Still no updated US firmware

AT&T hasn't said crap about it..You'll just have to wait if you want it. KNOXRAID is one if not the only KK custom ROM that works flawlessly.
wait til 4

if all of us hold or breath while signing the petition then they will have to listen. it must have worked with t-mo http://www.tmonews.com/2014/03/andr...wnload/?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=twitter
It'll come out when it comes out. Just like everything else smartphone related. When it does, I'll be right here saying "I told you so."
:good:
Hope the GPS issue is fixed.

I have been pestering at&t customer service about it as frequently as I can. Maybe once a week.
The chat guys are really nice but they admit they dont know anything about the update. They admit it has been released over 3 months ago (by samsung to at&t) and that they have to sanction it first. They also say "i dont konw, might be never".
I got a chat guy for AT&T to admit that 4.4.2 for S4 was released 2/26/2014
So if it was this recently, note 3's update is probably coming soon.
Has anyone else received a small software update? I am currently in baseband nb4.

I'm on NB4 and haven't received any updates since but they say KitKat is coming soon.

The title really should be changed.
1: it is misleading and makes people think it has been released
2: it has not been released so this "discussion" is exactly the same as the rest all over the forums.
3: it is a question in the OP asking for an ETA. Not really allowed and nothing has been said or heard on when it comes out. It gets released when it gets released. And since it is a question, it belongs in the QA section.

It was 37MB and then my wife had one on her S4 that was 300+MB that failed. Is it common to not be able to update over the air? I've always had to use kies to upgrade.

She got kitkat. We haven't yet. On her phone the entire system has to be bone stock to update. At least that's what I'd do just to be sure. Make sure she has a good wifi connection.

if at&t follows their usual update patterns, i expect it will be released in late april or early may (when the s5 is coming out). im assuming they're just waiting for the s5 to come out before releasing kitkat so people will buy the s5 instead of the s4 since it will be their only kitkat phone. just an educated guess

AT&T already officially released the 4.4.2 KitKat update for the S4 about 2 weeks ago.
Anyone get this yet? I just did. Anyone notice anything new?

Very small, only about 30 MB. It basically contained a few updates to AT&T and Samsung apps and "carrier billing enhancements" whatever the hell that means. Basically, a totally useless update.
