Galaxy tab 10.1 LTE, using a WIFI only, how to get update?

[streetstrip01]

I have a GT 4G VZW LTE, and I am using it as a WiFi only device (No sim, no additional bill).

If need be, I can tether it to my rooted thunderbolt.

Anywho, since I can't figure out how to load new ROMs without doing whatever ODIN is, and this and that, it is rooted (I think), but factory in all other ways. Swapping ROMs is sooo much easier with the TB. I have hung around the XDA forums, but getting them to talk normal talk is out of the question. It's like me trying to explain pharmacy to a newborn in 5 minutes, then expecting them to manufacture narcs afterward.

How do I get the update without being on the 4G network? Will it work if I just check updates on WiFi?

Yes, I'm 99% sure it'll work if you're just on wifi. If you go to the "Check for Updates" menu and hit "Check Now", it should update the time every time you click it. That should mean it's checking even on wifi.

Cool. I'll give it a shot when I get home.

You would think they would want you to do it on WiFi, to save VZW's servers. lol

Yea...nothing.

Me neither and I'm on their network. The update is slowly rolling out. It'll get to you eventually.

Very slowly rolling out.
