I have the notification, too. I see your version "T889UVALL4" isn't mentioned on the official T-Mobile Note 2 update page - weird. The latest version is supposed to be "T889UVALK8".
I'm trying to see what it is before I install - T-Mobile's site does not mention the software update, so I figured it was a minor update for an app or for the Exynos Abuse exploit, or something... Noticed anything different, yet?

Same here, I just got the update, seems nothings added on the phone, I just clicked the start button and it rebooted. Hope somebody with better knowledge can chime in to explain whats the update all about.

The update is from Samsung patching the exploit and a few bug fixes!

 

[rgrande]

Yep, the update patched a few things all right, I've lost my "Exynos Abuse" root access.

I knew I shouldn't have clicked that install button!

I am updating through Kies and intercepted the file (around 1.2GB).
Enabled Root Keeper and see what's next.

update:
As I expected, root has been removed, but I regained it.

Was your GN2 "modified"

Thanks for the info. I was wondering before you updated, when checking for updates on your GN2, did it give you the message

"Your device has been modified. Software updates are not available"

because you had been rooted? Therefore you did the update via Kies?

Looks like Tmonews came up this article based on information from this post.

I've noticed that these 'news' sites increasingly grab comments off device forums and monetize it as their content.

Anyone able to grab this? When I try to update all I get is 'Access to the software update service is provided to users in the order ........'

Same here, looks like lots of users are trying to update at the same time.

ExynosAbuse 1.40 thinks that this is still exploitable. Weird.

Hastily spouted for your befuddlement

 

[mingkee]

I am using hjsplit to split the ROM file into 5 pieces and uploading them. Please be patient.
Requires Odin to load.
100% Kies stock and root will be removed upon installation.

sammobile.com has posted it, no need to do. I was just hoping someone would upload the 8 meg update instead of the whole 870+ meg file.
