Latest Samsung Ativ S firmware updates

[Boris NevermorE]

Hello everyone, i'm new from Italy. As most of you, i have the Ativ-s waiting for Cortana Alpha.
At this time i have:
CSC Ato, SO 8.10.14203.306, Firmware 2424.14.9.3, Tim operator and smartphone works perfectly.
I know for sure that someone, reading in italian Samsung forum, have the Ativ S with running Cortana Apha and i hope share this info in this thread help us to find a solution for all of us cause I suspect, Samsung (or Microsoft) do not.
The working Cortana Apha Ativ S have : SO 8.10.14219.341, firmware 2424.13.11.2, operator and brand H3g, unfortunately i don't know CSC, the update was made with preview for developers activated... could this help us?

Yes it could, for Italian users. But try to find out from that guy on which CSC he is. The more information, the better

I don't know if this is the thread you are following/reading but I do follow Plaffo forums too. Anyway they report the OS version and firmware version you mentioned (please notice the lower firmware version, that is the firmware before Update 1 and Update 1 went live, in production, a bunch of weeks before the Cortana update), yet they also say that Microsoft has removed the update. For the ones who didn't update from the start (fearing the loop bug) the update simply disappeared, without changing CSC or anything else. They lastly say that Microsoft started working on this issue to release the update for Ativ-S only in mid January (unconfirmed source I as far as I read).

Strangely, in the last 10 days I got 2 updates of the apn system app. Maybe SAMSUNG are working on a new firmware? LoL

Hello Boris,

I also got APN update from Samsung but have not installed it due to bad previous experience with firmware updates.

Have you installed the update yet?

I have the Ativ S T899 running DP 8.1 with update 1 and don't see this apn system app you guys talk about. Is that something you downloaded?

 

[RoyalX]

No, it was a system update which pushed automatically.
But you can search it in the store with keyword "APN"

 

[Boris NevermorE]

Apn I was talking about is in the Samsung Zone, so its a Samsung sys app for ativ s probably and its for devices with 8.1. I did install it and its working on my ATIV S with 8.1.1. I did post screenshots few posts above.

 

[RoyalX]

Be careful with saying it is for WP8.1
In the app store it says for WP8 and WP8.1
And on both OS the update were pushed.
But it only works in WP8.1
It crashes in WP8.0, before it worked fine, just like the screens of Boris shows.

Samsung messed it up once again!!!

I know, that's why I said its for wp8.1 only, cuz I see reports saying it doesn't work on wp8

Mary Beth, if you can't see it than you probably don't need it. Just in case, here are the links for APN (WP US Store and CA Store):
apn | Windows Phone Apps+Games Store (United States)
Here is in the Canadian WP store:
apn | Windows Phone Apps+Games Store (Canada)

Yes I did, and it's working perfectly for me

So, Boris, you were right

Microsoft and Samsung reach settlement over royalties dispute | Windows Central


I guess we can now hope for more 8.1.1 updates and of course, W10 update.

I am not putting W10 TP on my ATIV S, I just love it too much with the WP8.1.1 on it now.
Can't put it on my Lumia 930 either (cuz it's a work phone, duhh, LOL)
But I might try it on my super cute neon green Lumia 630. But then I can't report here on my favorite thread, have to go in Lumia threads

Just one question: I really like wp Experience (and Windows 8.1 top, i'm a surface pro happy owner), but I really want to know if with wp10 I'd allowed to attached pdf (or other) files via outlook...
Do you know that? And , if you'll try wp10 on Nokia 630, can you try this for me and give me an answer? I really appreciate that
