I'm with you. Not going to apply it. Can't seem to get rid of the "software update is available" notification.... Any tricks for this?
Update....
Seems it attempted to install itself last night when plugged in. It failed, said I was rooted *gasp* and now the notification is gone Hurrah!

The only thing that I know of is that it will not update if the battery is low. LOL. Other than that, I do not know how to stop it as I understand updates are forced after denying them 3 times. I could be wrong.

Got the notification this morning and denied it. Froze the OTA in Titanium Backup so it didn't try and apply the update later.
I tried to update, but I got an error saying my phone was suspected of being Rooted.
has anyone un-rooted and then installed the update and then rooted it again?
*********ALSO********** Could someone upload the new APN Settings ? either in this thread or a new one?
I'm rooted but stock and took the update fine and keep the root... Luck maybe?
Same here @yuckycool. It auto updated, but root persisted.
Auto update and kept root as well. Towelroot method everything else stock.

sdcard error. had that with my lg g2. get a new sim card and factory reset it should be fine after. sucks but thats the only way i found to fix it
Hey all,
Thought I'd let those of you that have an AT&T Tab S 8.4 know that Lollipop has been released today. Happened to be on the AT&T Software update page here: http://www.att.com/esupport/softwareUpdateArticle.jsp?sid=KB425812&cv=820 and noticed it listed the update.
Manually checked for updates on my tablet, it's downloading now. My 8.4 on AT&T is totally stock.
Downloading now... 1.1GB
manually checking shows nothing for me
Mine wasn't too laggy after the upgrade. But as I know from places like XDA usually a very good idea to do a full system wipe which I did.
What I am most thankful for is there is now an option to remove that Samsung screen that has those Samsung widgets that go full page. Can't recall what it is called. Yeah I know could have got rid of that using a 3rd party launcher in 4.4 but so happy Samsung put option there to disable it finally. To get rid of it, long press blank space like you were going to add a widget, then click Home Screen Settings, then uncheck "Content Home Screen".
Has anyone who rooted with kingroot updated? I'm assuming it'll kill root, just curious if I need to unroot prior, or if the update will still install. I'll post the answer tomorrow after I update.
I've had some Samsung devices which will update while rooted, and some that will not.

Maybe try to adapt the method given by ashyx here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-tab-s/general/guide-how-to-root-tripping-knox-kitkat-t3129484
It worked successfully for me on the T800

I'm rooted with Kingroot and it's currently downloading the update. If you load Xposed Framework and Wanam Xposed, under Security hacks there's a setting for Fake System Status that allows you to set it to Original.
I'll follow up when the download finishes.
Update: The download completed but the install failed and then got stuck in a boot loop. Ended up having to go to the Samsung place at Best Buy to have them re-flash KitKat. Now the tab is telling me I have to wait 24 hours to check for updates. I'm sure everything will be good now that I'm back on a factory image.

Turn off automatic date and time and manually advance it by a day, and try again.
When they re-flashed KitKat did it wipe your tablet? The OTA failed me when rooted, failed me after un-installing adaway and un-rooting and removing KingUser. I cannot do a firmware upgrade via Kies 3 as it's not available. I cannot do an emergency firmware recover via Kies 3 as it's not soft bricked. I can't find either the KitKat or the Lollipop firmwares online anywhere... Currently I have a tablet, works fine, I did a factory reset (in the back of my mind knew this wouldn't work) that has a custom status and won't take the OTA.
If anyone knows where I can find the KitKat firmware, or the OTA, please let me know.
Or maybe someone could grab the OTA off their tablet after downloading prior to updating and share the wealth with the community???
Has any kingroot user tried triangle away, unroot via kinguser, and take the OTA?
Also just realized that if I can fail the OTA, I can obviously download it... Where do I grab it from if I wanted to flash it with odin or sideload?

OTA came down successfully while not rooted. The reflash at Best Buy didn't wipe it.
As far as I know, the factory images for the AT&T versions aren't available anywhere, or at least I've been unable to find them. They obviously exist because I'm pretty sure the guy at Best Buy used Kies to flash with an image that's available to him from Samsung.
I re-rooted last night in the attempt of using triangle away to clear customs status, then un-rooting. This was odd because device status still shows custom but download mode shows official and Knox is 0.
While I was briefly rooted again I downloaded the OTA in the hopes of copying it to my PC and updating via ADB Sideload... Couldn't find it. If anyone knows where Samsung puts these I'll grab it and post it to share.
im not rooted, performed a factory reset, and my device still doesn't see any updates. Can somebody provide a link to the ROM?
Same situation here - no root, no mods, no available update

The OTA gets downloaded to /cache. If you are rooted you can see it. But the OTA is not a complete ROM, just a differential to the ROM you have.

Turns out there is a imei problem with the tablet that is preventing the download. My imei number is paired with a IPhone 4. Anyway will take a few day to fix then the upgrade should work.
I get the same. I wiped my device hoping for a different outcome, and still no update.
I found this in the thread below.
It is an old tread but I'll comment anyway. SM-T807 is the 3G version while SM-T805 is the LTE version. Both Hardware (CPU/GPU) and comms modules are different. So 805 LTE (which has Lollipop) firmware won't work for 807 (no Lollipop is currently available nor Samsung plans to release soon).

John.
After not being able to take the OTA after rooting, even after un rooting, not being able to find the OTA and sideload (not in /cache), and not able use Kies or Odin I finally took it to the Samsung kiosk at my bestbuy.
They reflashed 4.4.2, didn't wipe anything, and immediately downloaded and successfully installed the lollipop update after getting home and on WiFi.
Just don't mention that you rooted ;')
Im having issues with my gear live. Samsung is NO HELP. this is my second one.
it is stuck on LWX48P and will not do any OTA. I would really like to get the updates as i believe the 5.0.1 is the root of my issues. I am familiar with flashing on my Galaxy phone but have never done the watch.
Can anyone direct me on how to get this stupid piece of junk to update? from this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/Samsung_Gear_Live#Official I cannot see how to go from the version I am on.

Brendo, thank you. I finally got the tool running on my PC with the drivers and all. it reset my watch to KMV78y. the watch is currently downloading an update.
EDIT,
after download the system updates said (public) KMV78y to KNX01Q. but would not do anything. it seems the watch wanted to reboot just before it finished downloading.
EDit 2. Finally. it said update ready and installed. then each other OTA went smoothly and the watch is now on the latest and greatest LCA43. Lets hope this solves all my issues.

I'm stuck in the same place you were after your first edit, it downloads the update from KMV78Y to KNX01Q, but then nothing happens. If I go back to update it just shows the text [Public] KMV78Y ->KNX01Q. Resetting does not help, but it allowed me to download the same update again, with the same result.
How did you get it to go on and actually install the update?

I believe it was just time IIRC.. it has been some time and the watch has performed perfectly ever since.

It seems it just needed to think things over for a while. After waiting 10 minutes it told me that it had an update for me and asked to install. Now I'm going thru the upgrade chain and hoping thing will work out nicely.
I guess I was just too impatient

HAHAHA!.. yea it took forever to get over that hump but it does go. Glad to hear it is working for you.
I figured out how to fix this problem with debug user 5.0.1 not taking OTA'S! also not coming up with ADB Sideload recovery not showing up in computer or error device not found! this method works in fastboot mode unlocked bootloader! PM ME, cant upload right now! have to work in morning! need someone to host! I can get you 6.0.1!
Hi I have a problem from going to 5.1.1 from 5.0.2. I have tried clearing cache,
I have 9gb free,
made sure everything is up to date and enabled,
and have factory reset my phone.
Still doesn't work.
Says something about "dm- verity verification fail" if I go into that developer screen when you hold power, home and volume up right after it tries to update again while loading.
Never has been rooted and have had it for a few months now. Also I was wondering if I could root this phone and just manually update it with custom firmware and forget about Ota updates anymore and be able to run the latest and greatest firmware. I have read in a few places that the new bootloader is un-cracked though and can't be rooted? Thanks.

#1 didn't show any update but I did go to the samsung kiosk in best buy. He said he has had this problem with phones on other carriers too and he flashed it! Still would like to know if anyone is working on rooting these...

Would love a root, but if the rumors are true, that a new S7 Active version will be announced in Jan and released in Mar, and the new S7 Active (still likely only an AT&T exclusive...) has noticeable improvements, perhaps a root solution for this phone may fall to the way-side.
I'm on the fence about getting an S6, kinda waiting to see if I can get any confirmed specs for a new S7.
Argh... tough...

Did someone get it to work successfully? I can't push the system to my internal storage (no space left on device) - even though I did a full factory reset before trying to push it.
I also tried installing it directly following the instructions on the official website. But booting won't work (stuck at LG-boot-screen).

I had the same problem. It starts when you have a too old of an ADB version. You need >1.0.39 that'll fix your problem.
Also it's quite an amazing OS. Way faster than WearOS who was killing my watch!
These are the drivers you need!

Thanks for your reply. I was able to fix it another way:
I booted to twrp and was then able successfully push the file to the internal storage. Then I just flashed the boot image over fastboot and everything works now.

Ive been using it for a few days and its nice. Gestures dont work for me so I have to button press to see time. My only annoyance.
i much prefer android 1 over 2 and aos. AOS2 is meant to be much better i hear.
Reviving an old thread. Did anyone ever try to reverse this? as in reverting back to wear OS from Asteroid OS? I'm having a hard time reinstalling wear OS image via ADB. I managed to get ADB working (adb devices return back a device). However, I can't get into recovery or bootloader. Sending command "adb reboot bootloader" would just cause the CMD to hang and nothing happened on the watch. Please advise, thanks!
