Check your system and be sure the baseband and build are mj5. Maybe your external sd update didn't take. I didn't have any issues. I have used the mj5 restore a dozen times though.
Found out what my issue was. I had to clear the cache settings in the AT&T software update. Once I did that and then moved the date one day forward the update started to download immediately.

Its really weird how that works for some and not others. Didn't work for me on the last update and its not working for this one. Last time I had to restore to stock to get the update. Looks like I will have to do that this time as well. I will just wait for Kitkat before I go through all that. What a pain!

Pause doesnt work when dialling

After the upgrade, the 'Pause' function (when dialling) doesnt seem to work. I use this to dial in to teleconferences and I have the phone number and conference code saved as a contact. I insert a comma between the phone number and the code. This saves me a lot of time when dialling in. Ever since the upgrade, this feature doesnt seem to work. Does anyone else have the same problem?

I will have to do some research to see if something other than a comma would work to insert a pause.

No matter what I do I can't get this thing to install past 31%. I've tried defrosting EVERYTHING, disabling SuperSU and enabling Survival Mode yet nothing works. I tried deactivating all Xposed modules as well and wiping the cache, yet that didn't help. I'm starting to think that once I get this sorted out it'll be my last Samsung phone for a VERY LONG time.

Same here. After doing all that, I did a factory reset and it still failed

Had to restore completely back to stock MJ5 and the update finally took. Rooted with Kingo 1.1.8. Hopefully SuperSu survival mode will work on the KitKat update whenever that comes.

I think someone mentioned this before, but I just experienced the camera failing on NB4. I was using it on and off for an hour, and it was working fine, then I saw another shot I had to get, tried to open the camera, and it said the camera failed. Tried clearing data in the camera, but ultimately had to reboot to get it working again. Personally I'm not positive if it is just NB4 because I've only had this phone for 13 days
