So I decided to check the LG Mobile Support Tool - Verizon LG G2

It said that there was a software update available and then it said this

I would assume its for knock code.....since the at&t version is getting an update.

I hope so, but I don't know why the update is being delayed if it's ready?

It's rather do without knock code, no more simple double tap.

Could have been posted to go out to testers.
Or they are going to with hold it because knock code is a major selling feature for the g3 and they are going to take pre orders soon.

Double tap > Lockscreen is fine. But Knock Code > Desktop would be nice.
Might be a gimmick but a welcome feature to try. It is also an added security without really increasing much effort. Patterns and codes are too much work for me.
Although that Firmware is 24A which is what we already have.

Confirmed: Sprint 4.3 released and discussion thread

http://www.androidpolice.com/2013/1...or-the-galaxy-s4-s4-active-s-iii-and-note-ii/
AP is usually pretty accurate. Dates are always subject to change based on carrier, but the current target date for Sprint S4 4.3 update appears to be 10/30
Edit: according to the article, the Verizon update was expected to be released today, and it did - http://www.androidpolice.com/2013/1...now-lists-android-4-3-ota-update-i545vruemj7/
2 days to go for 10/30 - woohoo!
Edit 2: http://www.androidpolice.com/2013/1...sprints-galaxy-s4-is-ready-right-on-schedule/
Now, waiting for "I got it" threads, and for "4.3 flashable, rooted available here"
I'm looking forward to a TW rom with 4.3, but I'm really wanting the AOSP 4.4 Rom
What's new for 4.4? I'm mostly looking forward to 4.3 to utilize the NotificationListener service.

If we are just getting 4.3 on Halloween then chances are we won't see KitKat until December-January, possibly even February! :/

Man I can't believe no one has got this leak yet? Usually someone has it before it comes out OTA.
Here is Phonedog's article...

Only if smart ones would try to flash international leaks on Sprint or flash unrooted on a rooted phone.
Sent from my SPH-L720 using Tapatalk
Seems like with this phone, by the time the full tar.md5 is discovered, there's already a flash for root and hotspot. The hard part is to find the strength to wait past the update zip and tar and go for the full flash. With this phone, and decades of pc updates with Windows, the best and most thorough experience is had with waiting for the full flash, not update, to surface. Yes the updates work but my opinion is held that a full install is better than just a patch update. Your mileage may vary.

It has only been "announced" in the sense that Google revealed the name and version number in an online post. They haven't actually held a traditional announcement in which they give release info and go over the new features that are included. We don't know when it's coming out or what all it includes yet.

That announcement will be made when announce the new Nexus devices since they will be offered with 4.4 out of the box in all likelihood.

Sammobile listing leaked 4.3 builds for AT&T phones. Sounds like they have kept a tight grip on the 4.3 release. I would have expected at least one early release to be leaked before the OTA is available.
I wouldn't be too happy about an update given that there is basically a 100% chance that it will include a Knox-equipped bootloader.

They will. AT&T just released it for thiers a couple days ago being the 1st US carrier to do so. Verizon is usually the last to get us updates and we probably won't get it till the G3 is available, which is around July 17.

T-Mobile S6 Already has Update Out

T-Mobile just stomping all over every other carrier at this moment for this device.
Meanwhile, AT&T hasn't even sorted out their system's issue with my pre-order yet because nothing moves outside of M-F -_-
Nice. Tmobile is acting like the best carrier should act!

Doubt it, but does anyone know if that update is safe to take and still be able to root?
I think the auto root method has been updated to work with the new update. You should Check that thread out to be sure

So, according to drakon.us, Samsung has provided factory bootloader unlocker in the Samsung App store.

I'd be interested to see if we could get our hands on that app. I've got some friends from Taiwan and Mainland that I could reach out to... Maybe one of them can grab it for us. Anyway, hope I'm not posting **** information here; definitely not my intent. What we do know however, that there is a factory unlocker out there. Whether it can work with our region is an unknown but, it might be worth a look.
I don't have much faith in the Verizon varient getting root. Going to take some getting used to cuz I've come from rooted phones since I entered the smartphone world.

This is definitely good info. I might try and get on chat with Samsung to see if they'd have a download link...probably a long shot, but worth it.
I won't hold my breath, but I'm interested in hearing how this goes as well. The lack of root on the Note 4 after being out since last year is keeping me from swapping out my s5 for a s6 edge.
This would be great, but alas I am sure Verizon has made steps to ensure that it wont be that easy for us!

So after update to LP Tasker is not working. I had it set up to turn off 4g and background data when screen would time out then reconnect when screen wakes up. Suggestions?

Can't be done without root on Lollipop. Found that out after updating today too. So frustrating being locked out of so much
You can't do it even with root I use Llama on Droid Maxx running cm12.1 and it doesn't work. They changed something in the code that doesn't allow it anymore. It sucks my battery life is taking a hit.

It can't be done automatically. The quickest way I've found is to use the two-finger swipe from the top to get to the quick settings menu then hit the cell signal icon. If anyone finds a way to do it automatically, please don't hesitate to say something! I get horrible reception at work so I now have to manually tell it to turn off mobile data every day. Kinda sucks.
Drew, I'm In the same position. Weak 4g signal that's why I have always used Tasker, paid version, to control it.

Has anyone tried using AutoInput and Tasker to leverage the toggles in the pulldown as a workaround?
