New update for the Sprint GN2 - 2/13/2013

**Bulldog1377** · 02-13-2013, 09:24 AM

I just received an update for my Sprint GN2 this morning. Not sure what is included as far as an update and have been unable to locate information about the pack in my limted time looking. Thought I would get it out here so that others would both know that it is out there (as it did not push - I went out and checked) as well as let some of the smart guys out there inform me as to all the additions/fixes.

Also received an update. Noticed my lock screen swipe has changed.

I just checked for a firmware update and came back with no update found. Can anyone five some more info on this update?

*edit just looked on Android Central and said that the update is a security fix.

I don't know about security update but I got 4.1.2 in the update I got this morning.

Are you sure? Can you post a picture of this. Are you on Sprint?

**almath** · 02-13-2013, 11:55 AM

So, from any of you who got the update are you also rooted and if so did it affect the root? Thanks

How is your gallery app? There was a big lag in MA5.

No lag that I can see, the new gallery layout is nice.

Noticed Android Central came out saying it was a security update but I have noticed the predictive text is much more active and accurate. ..

No lag on gallery for me. Notification bar constantly shows icon that it is checking if I am looking at screen. Also, Juice Defender text is different when you swipe notification bar down.

Im rooted, & got a notification for update twice Ithought I'd broke something after constantly tweaking things lol!:-) I rejected it twice! good to kno it wasn't me..

**yankeesusa** · 02-13-2013, 10:36 PM

My question, is the update for rooted users going to require a stock rooted rom to be installed or will it just be a zip file?

The Smart Stay Icon will remain constant after this new update, similar to the Bluetooth icon when it's turned on/off.

Go to manage apps, and clear data for Google Services Framework. Go back and check for the update again. If it doesn't work, keep trying a few times. It took me three times and another person five times, but this trick seems to work to force the update to appear.

Edited to fix a name.
