S4 Firmware Update Prompt - Should I Download It?

[BobR1908]

Hi all - we know sometimes updates help and well sometimes they don't lol. I have a Galaxy S4 on Telus in Canada and just received a prompt to download new firmware citing it will help with stability. Has anyone else downloaded the latest firmware and had issues? Figured I would inquire before updating lol

I updated about an hour ago on Koodo, phone seems a bit faster at the moment, no major differences.

Thanks for replying, I appreciate it.

I am noticing now it takes what feels like forever to take a photo. When I went into my camera it said "Camera Firmware Updating" and now after you take every photo a "processing" box comes up and you can't take another one until it finishes. Not impressed with that.

I'm with Rogers in Canada and was hoping that this upgrade would allow me to move apps to my sd card, thus freeing space in internal memory. Unfortunately, I could only move 3 apps. Very disappointed!!
My camera app works fine. Still too early for a proper evaluation.

Go into your cameras settings and tap reset settings. I also had this problem, but resolved it with this.
