Signal update coming down the pike. Not JB, but a step in the right direction.

Despite the other similar and double info thread not even having a link, I have not received the update yet but I just turned it on.
Monitoring closely.

I wonder if they will cripple the search with this OTA

Same here, I also wonder if this is the same kind of update the Verizon one saw that modified the display of signal strength to show better signal then the phone was actually getting. I'm going on lunch in a little bit so I'll stop the Sprint store here next to work and ask then what's up.

Okay, I *had* local search before this update. It appears to be gone now.

My friend has an unrooted Nexus S4G and I literally saw the update pop up on his phone. He is now on Jellybean. The NS4G??? Seriously?

**tuxpower** · 07-26-2012, 11:43 AM

oh well, that just means that when I spent the $40 on my google wallet from sprint I'm moving to cm9 until cm10 is stable

I got the update this morning on my gnex but there doesn't appear to be any sprint tv support. Has anyone gotten sprint tv from somewhere yet? It shows as incompatible on the play store.

Day 1, 6pm EST. I have not yet received the OTA update.

I believe he's referring to the particular folder the actual update file sits in after it downloads.

hmm I'm not sure about that then. It downloaded sometime and this morning when I checked it had the box up saying a update was ready to install.

On the issue of sprint tv I got ahold of technical support and he said while the update says there's sprint tv support the only way to get it is to download the apk and install it. After that it should update itself just fine (least thats what it does on his nexus s). So I'll give that a try and see what happens.

If my phone is unlocked do I still get the sprint update?

**Destoration** · 07-26-2012, 07:40 PM

I can't for the life of me get sprint tv to work. Best case it comes to a update screen so I'm not sure what sprint has been smoking but this confusing crap it not fun

Honestly I'm not sure, but I would relock the bootloader and make sure your on official software before accepting any official OTA. better safe than sorry.

No the tech support guy actually told me to go find a apk and install it. I'm going to call back and ask what exactly this is supposed to mean. It supports sprint tv but it doesn't support it? Makes no sense at all.

I'll hold ...I was asking because I don't want the update.

I had an idea and installed the sprint tv apk on the nexus that did not receive the update yet. It loads up fast and works correctly but gives me the error "your subscription does not include this" crap. On the phone with the update the program will partially load after 10mins and lag out / not work very well. Somehow sprint managed to break it and make it work all at once!
