This worked with Philz recovery but it will probably install with TWRP just fine as well.

** Please note, TWRP through v2.8.0.1 is still not working dependably for making backups and restores but it works fine for everything else.

No changelog yet as far as I know.
The only really obvious change I noted is WiFi Calling does not appear to be included.

The only thing I can find is it is an SSL security update, and that is the only change mentioned. I don't believe there is much visually in this which is why I am pleasantly surprised anyone bothered working on it. L is supposed to be out in late November, December.

what's new got any pics?

Download links or just someone saying Samsung is testing them?

 

[evo3d6]

Are we able to reverse flash firmware or are we stuck after updating?

This is just like a regular rom. The only thing I noticed after flashing back to a backup of ne5, the phone did a hands free activation and then checked for an updated prl.

The phone's internal and micro USB storage doesn't seem to be mounting when it is connected to the PC.
