Force software update?

[clerk]

I have not received the software update yet. When I check it says up to date. Running an unlocked version on ATT sim. Is there any way to force the update?

I'm on March update. What's your?

I'm on March as well. Did you not get an update after first turning your phone on?

Is it available for unlocked users with AT&T SIMs?

I'm using the unlocked ultra with a ATT sim and it's telling me that no update is available. When you guys say March update do you mean where it says security patch level in my screenshot?

If I read the article correctly for now that March security patch was only pushed out by TMobile and VZW here in the states

Yes mine says March 1st.

Mine says February 1st and there was no update when I powered up. Edit - I was most interested in the camera update.

Speaking of updates, why is it that they will only download over wifi and not your data? My home internet is slow as molasses 5Mbit DSL where as I get up to 60Mbit over my data and I'm unlimited. So annoying.

Now what's the deal with getting updates on a unlocked phone using AT&T? Do the updates come from Samsung or AT&T? And is there a way to force the update over your mobile data? Downloads take forever on my landline.

Yea same here. Video filming is real bad on my phone. I want to at least try a update before I decide to send it back.

No one in the U.S has recieved the camera update. Don't worry once it's out someone will make a thread and you'll know it's out lol...

Don't know about the camera update but a bunch of us received day 1 security update which includes March security update. US unlocked model here.

But most likely not the camera update otherwise Samsung would have made a big deal about it by telling to all bloggers

 

[Emig5m]

So how do you differentiate security updates from general software feature updates?

You can't unless Samsung tells what all included in the updates. Mostly every month they push security updates and along with it some bug fixes or improvements. If there is something worth mentioning they will in the update. Like for example if there is a big camera update they will most likely mention it in the update log.
