When will the Official kitkat for At&T be released ?

It's out on other carriers. Anyone know when AT&T are going to release it? I'm running the leak which works fine...

It's unknown. Att could be trying to fix the gps issue but for all anyone knows they just don't feel like releasing yet.

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.

Root with tool?

Anyone know about this: http://forum.gsmhosting.com/vbb/f66...g-added-root-flashing-samsung-s5-etc-1820546/
Says it supports the SM-G900A. $150 box to buy though.

It's probably either a scam that MAY work for some devices with similar exploits or actually works similarly to the way OEM's would flash a device. Not sure about everyone else, but I'm definitely leaning more towards the first option seeing as no one has root yet...

Definitely bs!!! If root had been achieved for our device you would read about it on every forum and every tech website example being android authority and def xda!!

Idk man. I downloaded the software for free. Anything is worth a try. What if the software actually worked? It's worth a try, right?

I think it does not work that way. We must have the box or dongle to run the software, you may have a payment system for unlocking attempts.
Is a slot machine to unlock.
I do not like dongles.

Who knows it may work? But the device itself costs $115-$135. So who's going to be the guinea pig?

Hmmm .. this does look interesting and I have no issues with purchasing one once confirmed - Claims it supports root on AT&T by flash ... I have a few guys at work that have Verizon S5's - they might want to get in and buy one - maybe we can be test

Last time I checked, I was a computer networker and run anti-virus, anti-malware,anti-spyware, and anti-adware. I know quite a bit about computers man but it may be worth a try with the dongle. I'm sure my system would automatically tell me if any of those were present. Just saying. Why would we be here on a developers site if we didn't know what a virus is?

Seems a little risky though, it says "Root by flash" whereas that could mean what I believe was done on an older version of the S4's firmware, where a temporary recovery was flashed in order to root. For the S5 and newer S4 firmware on AT&T and VZN, this would be impossible with the lockdown.

The software will only work with the dongle. It's not flashable to the phone itself.

Port lollipop to 910t

Hello so it looks like germany is recieving lollipop to the 910f can any dev please try to port it over to our device?.

Why? If snapdragon version receives update in Germany, US version shouldn't be far away. Let developer use their resources for something else.

Coming from a Nexus 5 I am not all that excited about 5.0.
In my opinion you lose more than you gain. Google took a step back with lollipop.

T-Mobile S6 Already has Update Out

http://www.sammobile.com/2015/03/28/t-mobile-releases-galaxy-s6-s6-edge-update/

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

Bootloader unlock discussion for Galaxy S6 Edge Device

So, according to drakon.us, Samsung has provided factory bootloader unlocker in the Samsung App store.
Search for "CROM Service", You can see the process here:

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!
