If you're in Canada then yes, it's been mentioned XD If you're buddy is US AT&T though this is definitely news!!!
And what's that...?
Like I said, I have no and I'm trying to figure out what it could be as well. It installed and now its on the screen "Android is upgrading" and is going through all the apps or whatever..

Adresses the horrendous lag
We're in Wisconsin on ATT
Then it sounds like the OTA has finally arrived! Maybe they will unlock the bootloader with it bahahahah
According to most sources this update has zero affect on that part of the system. This is supposed to be strictly performance.
Okay so how do we know if it is safe to apply this update? I would like to fix some lag but in no way harm my chances of unlocking the bootloader.
Can someone pull the update file and examine it?

There's no way to know until someone like Adam or Dan start looking it over. Gonna have to give them at least a day or two too get the update and dissect it.
Ultimately only Dan is gonna be able to tell us for sure, which I'm sure he will in the coming days, in the mean time just chill, the OTA isn't gonna go anywhere XD
Well, update went through. Lag seems less significant. A few hiccups here and there, but it seems to be better. Less hiccups than before, at least.
Facebook and IGN apps scroll more smoothly as well. Opening and closing is a bit snappier. Been trying to open and minimize a bunch of apps to induce a hiccup, it's not doing it. Swiftkey is also opening more smoothly (well, instantaneously). Overall seems better. I'm content.

It also seems that the camera "lag" is gone or is less dramatic too.

EDIT: okay thank god it didn't install the update... just downloaded it.... phew...

Does anyone know which app I need to clear data on to reset the time window for the OTA checker? I checked yesterday afternoon before this update dropped and it's making me wait...

5Re-rooted... Works fine...
Don't spread rumors until you've done it for yourself.....
All rooted apps, like seeder and root explorer on mine has been confirmed after OTA5As many have discovered through testing, the new kernel does not restrict root access..I took a quick look at the ARM code and saw no remnants. For now, ATT is playing nice with the kernel. This will all be moot once we have the BL unlocked and custom kernels. My S4 should be here tomorrow4I lost root with the update, but I got it back using the motochopper method, no problems.3I would not up-date the OTA ...
Although I'm in Canada, using an S4 with an unlocked bootloader, I would highly recommend that my friends with an AT&T device NOT install the OTA.
Dan Rosenberg made it very clear when he discovered how to unlock the AT&T bootloader. He said not to do any OTAs until his method is made public later this month following release of the Verizon S4.
His unlocking method may be negated by any OTAs. In the end it may not be a problem but, then again, it could end up being a nightmare for some folks.

I used Voodoo OTA RootKeeper to protect root and then restored it no problem after the update.
