Got the updated voice mail yesterday on the Note2. You can have a black background again! Now I see slacker updated to the ugly white background. Yuck! And they uglified the heck out of it.

I should be able to update this while rooted right?

[gr8nuguy]

I should note that this update kills the option to write prl from ##data# menu (least that's what I read)

Here is the easy way to update to MA6 if rooted.

Go to http://goo.im/devs/f..._LJ7_to_MA6.zip and download the file.

Put the zip on your EXTERNAL SD CARD!

Make sure you have the latest CWM on your phone. If you DO NOT know what i'm talking about than DO NOT attempt this up date with this process. Lastest CWM is v6.0.1.2.

1.Flash the SPH-L710_LJ7_to_MA6.zip in CWM.

2.Go to Wipe cache directory.

3.Go to Advanced and wipe the dalvik cache.

After the process has finished scroll to Reboot Phone.

CWM is going to ask you two questions.

1.CWM will say that stock recovery has been chosen, do you want to ignore that change, keeping CWM. Select YES

2.CWM will then say that root might be removed, do you want to fix this? Select YES

After the phone reboots it will show updating andriod. Let it finish its thing and you know should have MA6 and still be rooted.

If for any reason you do not understand these directions or do not have any idea what CWM is or how to install it DO NOT ATTEMPT this. I am not responsable if you brick your phone.

Robert or a MOD please feel free to remove this if you think it should not be here.

Just trying to give some help.

This is what you should have after you done with the update.

i followed the directions above and it worked on my stock rooted s3.

 

an easy way to update CWM is to download ROM manager from the play store.

I got the update this morning... and yes, damnit, it seems to have removed or relocated the prl write ability.

 

Digiblur, any idea if this feature is hidden elsewhere now or if a code on the dialer maybe exists to force it? I am mildly familiar with the non samsung method but not nearly as fond

I ended up having to do a factory wipe. Stupid update corrupted somewhere.

I will have an update soon like I have done for the Note2 that removes the code prompt 100% when pressing ##DEBUG#. Thinking of changing mine to #9# to make it easy

[aerxx]

reverted to a backup and updated successfully the second time. Always keep a backup kiddos.

FInally got the ota update this morning. Been checking every day.

 

Edit: Had a second update after the first one finished. Screen said this one was 3.0 MB. Not sure on the first one.

[mc_gusto]

My phone seems a little laggier with the 2 new updates. Might be an app slowing it down now. Anyone else have lag issues?

I also havnt received either updates but dont care since I lose the prl write function

[avb]

Is there any way to make the update message go away? I received the update, but don't want to lose the prl writing ability. It's annoying to get the update message so many times during the day.

[gr8nuguy]

do a build.prop edit

Obnoxious, ain't it? It was driving me bonkers too until I activated my new Optimus G this evening.

I'm pretty sure if I root the phone it'll be no big deal - I'm just too lazy. Let me know your impressions of the Optimus G after a few days.

Well, I got the 4.1.2 update yesterday, lost my root. But I don't see any difference so far.

The major update was the Exynos exploit that was patched.

The Sprint GS3 doesn't have the Exynos chip.

If anyone wants me to do a ROM for the S3 like I did for the Note2 please chime in. I might be able to do it in the blind without the device but if anyone has one I could borrow for a couple of weeks it would help out quite a bit. Or maybe even purchase if the price was right. We could call it the S4GRU S3 ROM
