Galaxy S5 Verizon September Update.

Just got an update on my Verizon Galaxy S5. Any idea what it is?

Interesting, did you get the update in June/July?

I did. I am 4.4.4 now. And I have already noticed interface changes.

Being a Verizon customer, I always assume updates are up to no good, so I've disabled them. Last time I allowed one, it cost me features that I need and use.

Anyone know if the boot loader has changed

I have tested everything. Other than some interface changes, nothing else different. What does 4.4.4 bring that 4.4.3 didn't?

Kind of a paranoid way to look at it but OK.

I am assuming it may have something to do with VOLTE as well. Who knows.

You were on 4.4.3 before? I'm on Verizon and the version prior to this update was still 4.4.2 for me. I'll download this latest one next time I'm on WiFi and see what's up.

I believe I was on 4.4.3 but all I know is the update gave me 4.4.4

Gotcha. Well I just installed it, definitely on 4.4.4 now. I think 4.4.3 and 4.4.4 are primarily just bug fixes for 4.4.2. I wouldn't expect any major updates until Android L is released. What interface changes have you noticed? I haven't had much time to play around with the phone.

no update here

What are the interface changes?

 

[emanwis]

Just updated mine. While I haven't had a chance to see what, if anything, is different, I can confirm that I did not receive the "VZWAVSSERVICE" error message when it started back up.

Verizon only had 4.4.2 , they never released a 4.4.3

The only upgrade they have released up to before today, IMO was a bad thing. It removed a lot of features that I used and now I can't get them back. I am thinking of going back to the original release version.

I won't let the update occur on 4.4.4 until a lot of folks have used it. In the past, VZW has always locked my phone up tighter, not made it better.
