system update 2/13/2013

maverick101 · Feb 13, 2013

I received a system update this morning. Tried to Google search what features were updated or fixes. To no avail.
Can anyone tell me what was updated? I have to go to work so, I have no time to play with the phone.

I did too, I haven't applied it yet. Haven't found any details on it.

Yeah.I just updated without research. I came here first to see a discussion. And nobody has posted anything yet.was hoping to see a list of fixes/changes. All I see is I'm running 4.1.2 now. Off to work. I'll check back later

Ma5 is 4.1.2 but you probably only have the baseband as ma5 ....

MA7 is 4.1.2 and contains the Exynos exploit patch as well as a new bootloader.
Not sure what the bootloader change is about.

Do you loose root, custom recovery or any saved settings if you perform the update? I wanna update but scared to loose bc eeverything works so well.

You have to be unrooted and on a stock Ljc rom

Rockin it from my macknote2

Do you know if you needed to be on that due it to show you the update? I checked and i do not have it yet but was thinking maybe it won't show me?

I'm stock rooted on MA5 and did not receive the notif, nor did I get an available download when I tried a manual update through Settings. Not surprised... I would presume they'll only update those who are still not "Modified" or tripped their flash counter. Makes sense to me. If I was on CM or another custom ROM, and Samsung pushed an update to me, I'd be a bit (fill in the blank).

The MA7 update has officially been posted in the Sprint Community.

Was stock rooted then flashed Macks newest Rom after setting up phone i got the software update....so not sure if being rooted on stock matters or not whether you get the update. Havent applied it to phone yet just waiting to see if it changes root status on other phones.

Evo_Shift · Feb 13, 2013

Wouldn't OTA rootkeeper prevent you from losing root? Seems like a good way to be safe.

My wife has a Note 2 and I am nervous to even touch it but a security update like this makes me want to update for her. I don't want to lose her data or anything though. Just a quick update to her mostly stock rooted phone is all I want. ( I did change or remove some of the system camera sounds for her though which is why I hesitate to even try)

Macks ROM appears to be LJC. Maybe it's the build number then? Anybody on LK8 or MA5 get the notification?

MA7 allows you to change the quick settings toggles. (Found out in dev thread)
