I just updated to the ota i747uclh9... when I was checking out what was changed I saw that when I select a new wallpaper it has 2 rectangles on either as if I could make the wallpaper scrolling or panoramic but it will not allow me to stretch the wallpaper out. Has anyone figured out what the rectangles are for? Thanks!!

For those that were asking for just the modem. Here's the latest Modem from the latest AT&T OTA Update

UCLH9 Modem

Download HERE
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] mailstop7:
Apparently the update fails (doesn't like the modded nfc.apk that the Google wallet mod uses.) I am going to put the original files back and try it again, if I can find them.

Edit: renamed the ota to update.zip then used mobile odin pro to flash, allowing to skip checks on system files. Wallet appears to still work: it opens and lets me put a pin in...I havent tested at the store yet though. I really like mobile odin right now. Saved me hours...

Edit2: tried at store, didnt work, so for those who must use wallet - might want to wait. I think it may be as easy as reflashing the mod again...but dont know yet.

Hmm downloaded it the first time and when I rebooted, phone went to TWRP recovery and I couldn't figure out how to update from there. I cleared the cache on the AT&T software app and got it to download again, but I can't find the file. It does not seem to be /cache/fota. Does anybody know where I can find it?

--------------------------------------------------------

Never mind, I couldn't find it because I had temporarily un-rooted my phone and the browser didn't have root, so it couldn't browse that directory. Another question: do I need to restore frozen AT&T apps before updating?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] bkai:
Seems to boot quicker (maybe it's just me). Also the Google Play Books and Movies can be disabled now... before they would come back (re-enable) after a reboot. The VPN Client does not support PPTP: you still have to use the old VPN method if you have a PPTP VPN server.

Was the VPN client written by Nvidia? Or is the icon just oddly similar?

I can use this when I'm on LH1 right? My issue is I've got modded system files for both Wallet and Google Now so not sure this update will work. I think I'll have to wait for the full ROM to be released instead of patches and a CWM zip to be ready.

Btw, any feedback on modem? Guessing I can run LH9 baseband with LH1 rom

EDIT: i.e. will there be something flashable (in the near future) through CWM? Or do we definitely need to revert to stock recovery, unroot, then update and redo (restore root) it all? I'm not clear on how to revert to stock recovery or I'd probably be trying that now.

Update the Firmware for the Samsung Galaxy S III (i747)

Advisory:

AT&T and Samsung have released a software update for the Samsung Galaxy S III. The software update provides device improvements and ISIS certification, and will be delivered to the device as firmware over the air (FOTA) via Wi-Fi.

If the Baseband version is not I747UCLH9, the software should be updated.

This should answer many questions.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] waiters:
Yeah isis hasn't even stated the beta test yet In whatever market they wanted to test in.... For now I'm loyal to Google wallet...

I just hope that when isis is released, I won't have to chose between the two.

I had a rooted SGH-I747, with rom manager, CWM, backups etc... installed this OTA upgrade. Promptly lost everything, no more rooted, ROM manager and CWM denied access by Superuser, and of course cannot restore backup which was before this update.

I can Odin again with a stock rom but the stock rom would be old and not have this upgrade so I have to wait until MrRobinson come out with a new rooted stock ROM.

Yay!!!!!!

No luck updating with TWRP recovery (seems to have the same problem as CWM). I restored all my frozen apps and temporarily removed root, but the update fails. Also failed when I tried installing it by renaming to "update.zip" and flashing directly in TWRP. Looks like the only way to do it is to reflash stock, apply update, etc.

A few changes that I noticed... not sure if they've been mentioned yet...

Task Manager - Top menu bar auto-slides similar to the notification toggles

Stock Email Client saw a small but much appreciated update:

- "Load More" button is no longer at the bottom of the email - it has been relocated to float at the bottom left of the screen, regardless of scroll position.

- Load More status is remembered when you return to an email that was previously fully loaded. (If only it would remember by sender like Gmail)

- New "Top" button has been added - floats at bottom right when scroll is not at top.

Also just noticed the Gallery app runs in full screen. (why???)

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] J M L:
This is what I did to go from stock, rooted LG1 with the Ktoonsez Sammy kernel and CWM to LH9.

Make a backup!

Install the stock kernel

I used CWM to install a file I have called UCALG1-kernel.zip. I'm not sure where it came from, so I've attached it here. It's 3.0.8-704434-user se.infra@SEP-72 #1. Then I booted with the stock kernel.

Install stock recovery

I grabbed the Odin installable I-717 (sic) stock recovery image from from galaxys3root.com/. Odin is too much of a pain to use, so I unzipped the recovery.img file (attached) and ran dd if=stock-recovery.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p18, and then rebooted into recovery, just to make sure that it took. You should see a blue text that says "Android system recovery <3e>". Then I selected reboot from that menu.

Backup superuser

I used Voodoo OTA RootKeeper to backup su, and un-root.

Apply update

Once that was done, I just accepted the prompt to apply the update. You should see the death star logo, and it will take 4-5 minutes to apply the update. It will then reboot and optimize apps for another few minutes. Now I have baseband version I747UCLH9, kernel version 3.0.8-985684 se.infra@SEP-103 #1, build number IMM76D.I747UCALH9.

Re-root

Go back into OTA RootKeeper and restore root.

Re-install CWM

I used ROM Manager to re-install CWM recovery.

Disable stock-recovery installation.

Reboot to recovery, and then select "reboot". It will ask if you want to disable installing stock recovery. Select to do this. CWM will now stick.

I suppose at this point I could install the Ktoonsez's kernel, but I'll let it run on the stock kernel for a while to see how well it works. I used Titanium Backup to uninstall Ktweaker. I didn't bother to enable applications which I'd disabled using the Application manager. It didn't seem to matter.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] ikjadoon:
Also, it seems as if it the Exchange Global Address List support has been added in the "To" box in replying/composing an email (or maybe it wasn't working for me before).

Keep root before update...

1. Make TB backau all of your apps to external card.

2.Using Kies restore phone to LG1

3.By Odin flash this : http://d-h.st/u2B

4.Install VooDoo OTA RootKeeper from Play Store

5.In VooDoo click on Temp. un-root ( keeps buckup)

6.Do OTA update.

7.Go to VooDoo and restore root.

8.Install TB from Play Store and restore backups apps.

Works perfect for me.

I've read through this thread but I can't seem to find a clear answer to this:

If I have a rooted phone but no custom ROMs or mods or anything like that, is there anything to be concerned about with updating? I have the update downloaded and ready to update, but I'm not sure if the fact that I'm rooted is going to screw anything up... or if that's going to affect my ability to update.

I'd recommend using Voodoo OTA Rootkeeper from the play store to backup your root, then disable it. Take the OTA and then re-root. Instructions are a page or two back (I think) in this thread on how to do it.

I tried this many a times.

After the update:

Slept when the battery was 100% charged, woke up after 8 hours of sleep, Wi-Fi, the battery was a whooping 96% :angel:

I'll wait a little longer. Maybe someone out there is already working on getting this OTA into a CWM flashable .zip that would work with an AT&T S3 with rooted UCALG1 and CMW 5.8.4.5 installed following the instruction on this thread. Just wondering because the previous OTA that installed UCALG1 over UCALEM was made into CMW flashable zip file that also preserved root and the Universal Search function.
