If its not bypassed then I'm sure its a prep for the L update. We all know that often there is an update before the next big os jump. But idk. We shall see. Maybe its an update long overdue anyway. Lol

and that security patch may very well break root.

If you have TWRP don't take the OTA.

If you're not rooted, but think you want to root, don't take the OTA until we find out if it's been patched to prevent current root methods.

If you are rooted with stock recovery, don't take the OTA until we find out if it breaks root.

Lameooo... I first found out about the Sprint LS990ZV5 update on November 6. It is now the 19... almost two weeks... Sprint Reps tell me they haven't heard of it... REALLY?
I have a possibly awesome phone without a working compass... that sucks! Of course, the update may NOT even have a compass fix. Who knows?!

ZV5 isn't coming our way but ZV6 RDF is out and source has dropped.
I give it 24-48 hours before it is announced. Maybe sooner before someone finds the file and posts it.
Now, the million dollar question... does it break root?
Im downloading the source now and plan on finding out. Thanks for letting me know it was out! :) And thanks to @engine95 for pointing me to this post.

UPDATE: I won't have the time to mess with it too much tonight but it still uses Android source 4.4.2_r2 so no Lollipop yet.
