Latest Samsung Ativ S firmware updates

[mjb666]

Warning, warning -- I have just joined the windows insider and chose fast ring hoping to get update 2 and the phone found an update so downloaded it & installed it & now my phone is continually rebooting, anyone seen this yet & suggestions?

 

[grozaman]

I think you didn't install the latest firmware from Samsung (2424.15.3.2).

Just installed the latest build! Amazing news! Partition Stiching is automatically activated! Now you can simply update your phone by pretending Lumia. I will attach screenshots later.

Waiting for a guide! I enabled fast ring updates, it installed me a configuration update but after that no other updates were found

Update 2 on T899M with Windows Insider.
The camera issue seemed to be fixed at first, but it returned after I restarted my phone

No configuration needed to upgrade to Update 2! Any Canadian phone can update.

GDR2 fixes the camera on the T889M which never got an official Samsung firmware update.
No need to wait for Samsung's firmware fix!

Been waiting for nearly a year for the camera issues to be resolved.
I'm so happy I would dance if I knew how.

That s GDR1 update with european Cortana, not GDR2

hi, update for Ativ S owners!

back to gdr3 with grozaman's method, than go through to wp8.1 update 1! the registry keys which i used are in 8.1.1:

"phoneManufacturerModelName = " RM-976_1161 "
"PhoneFirmwareRevision" = " 02040.00019.14484.24002 "
PhoneMobileOperatorName" = " 000-PL " " Lumia 630 CV POLAND "

enable "fast ring" and go to settings-phone update. thats it!

Yes, instruction is very easy.

1. Flash CMJ1 ATO with official CSC-file (or unofficial, it's not important).
2. Simply update to WP8.1 with the latest 15.3.2 firmware.
3. Optionally you can do hard reset after update.
5. By using CustomPFD (or other registry editor) pretend Lumia (I pretend RM-1040_1021).
4. Go to the Windows Insider and choose fast ring.
5. Update phone to the Windows 10.
6. IT'S NECESSARY to do hard reset.

Hi. Today i received update notification about Windows Phone 8.1 (8.10.14219.341). I'm on PFD and my versions are: OS version is 8.10.14203.306 and FW 2424.13.11.2. Can i install it? Camera bug is still there

only issue: cant sign in my microsoft account.. do u have the same problem, or just i forgot something?!

ps. running well after hard reset

edit: now i can, so working well after 2 days. except the "camera" app, but the camera (hardver) is working with 6tag and any other camera app so its not painfull, battery is better than 8.1 for me at least...the xbox music app is crap(and freeze the touches while im using) so i use perfect music, and the live tile is working well.

Actually i didn't install it yet. I'm afraid to get reboot loop

[Dusan Randj]

I changed rm-value and fw revision to what bence and grozaman suggested, enrkolled fast ring but I 'm getting only 8.10.14219 lol
Maaan. I'm going to reflash it and start from beggining.

You should have DNI3 and ATO.

 

[anon(8022058)]

[stipetic]

Can someone please clarify how to edit the registry?

Thanks.

Hi! I also got the 14219.341 update prompt. I have FW 2424.15.3.2 (CSC ATO, from a few weeks ago).

Can anybody confirm that unlike in december, this pfd update will not cause a boot loop brick as the very same version did with the previous firmware (ATO with 8.1 camera fix, I believe it was 2424.14.9.3) ? I'm not installing anything until then because having to flash it was so annoying...

 

[romo11]

I can confirm it. I did the update. Now I have 8.10.14219.341 with FW 2424.15.3.2. My CSC is ATO.

 

[lukas_ita]

2424.15.3.2 fw don t have bootloop issue, if yoy have this version you can update to .341 and above

Guys, please, just read my simple instruction and do not ask stupid questions!

1. Flash CMJ1 ATO with official CSC-file (or unofficial, it's not important).
2. Simply update to WP8.1 with the latest 15.3.2 firmware.
3. Optionally you can do hard reset after update.

5. Update phone to the Windows 10.
6. IT'S NECESSARY to do hard reset.

СMJ1 is version of GDR3 firmware, you can download it in my archive.
ATO is CSC of Austria (I could be wrong, but it does not matter). This is CSC gets all updated almost always at first.

With CMJ1+ATO you will get ALL latest updates for our phone, specifically 8.10.14157 and f/w 2424.15.3.2. It's firmware solved ALL problems and bugs! ALL! Boot loops, camera bug, Bluetooth bug, etc.
