Another update?

[Stefan Holder]

I currently have a Samsung Ativ S with the developer preview update installed. I see now another update is available. Not sure what this is though.

No updates found for me.

EDIT: So do you have 8.1?

We have ATIV S T899M (Canadian versions, one from Bell one from Rogers) and they got an update today. They were on the dev preview and the update only included Samsung updates. It FINALLY enabled Data Sense. The last update from Samsung enabled it but it would only be added to your app list on initial startup so it would require a hard reset to be put in. We didn't want to hard reset them so we didn't get Data Sense until this update which adds it into your app list if it isn't there yet due to a hard reset.

And the other BIG thing is it FINALLY FIXED BLUETOOTH. The T899M (at least both the ones we had) had broken bluetooth. It sounded like crap and would disconnect from the headset within a minute most of the time. That was with any bluetooth device, we tried 4 in total. That's stopped. About time, Samsung!

What Firmware version is it, my i8750 is on 2424.13.10.1?

What I mean is if you go into settings > about what does "Firmware version:" say?

I have Ativ S i8750 and I am from Croatia with Tele2 mobile operator, and I checking updates 2 times on one day and I don't see updates last month. When I'll see?

 

[Stefan Holder]

Ok finished the update and Firmware version: 2424.13.10.1

Not seeing anything different. Maybe just bug fixes.

From what I can gather it fixes the nasty black screen bug when using the GDR3 preview 😉

I also have one update available, but i think is Samsung stuff. I will not update it, if I do it I will lose the interop unlock .
I have GDR3, (8.0.10521.155 ; Firmware 2424.13.5.1) installed through developer account.

The only difference I can see: There is now a close "X" in the task manager for open apps.

That's part of GDR3 not the Samsung Firmware.

Fair enough, just don't do a factory reset though.

Yes, I heard that there some problems with GDR3. In fact I did it once but under GDR2, but everything went well.

Well, yeah but it wasn't available on my Ativ S before (even not after a full reset). That and DRIVING MODE are the only differences I see after the update.

 

[Stefan Holder]

Those are part of GDR3 and not a Samsung specific update. I have that since dev preview.. Counting down for 8.1
