Be patient. These updates don't reach everyone's phone at the same time. Most of the time they always state the entire rollout can be from a day to up to 7-10 days to complete a maintenance update/upgrade.

It is. I just manually did an update check and it did the update. It was about 40MB.

Well I live in Miami Fla I just got off the phone with a sprint tech and this is what he told me that the new update is a random thing that the main manufactures send but they have been a lot of calls about place getting it but has been messing up there phone so he said most likely to get the update go to a sprint crop store and they can put the update for me cause he said they might have stopped sending updates out because of all the complaints but I don't know how much of this is true so just a little info for u just in case u didn't get update

I don't want to update if it is not with it. When I had my galaxy s2, the updates made the phone worst so now I am cautious.
 
Just got the update. Choose to install later. Before I install. Are there any known issues? Will this reset my Google search bar? (I downloaded the apk on here so I could get my functionality back, so well I lose it?)
 
Yes you'll have to reinstall. Some are getting worse battery life. Keyboard is improved but I'm not getting predictive menu when inserting text within existing text. This means all my 'I's are capital letters unless I pad spaces around text I'm inserting. Only then does predictive menu appear again.

I have had no issues so far. My phone operates just as good as it did on day 1 (battery life, performance, etc.) I am assuming that the update just tweaked some stuff in the background and did some security updates.

The main thing I noticed is you can now adjust brightness from your notification bar (below). But yeah.. No complaints here :)

Only problem I have noticed since the update is that when the phone is on vibrate. I am not receiving notifications of txt msgs. In settings it shows that the messages are muted instead of just on vibrate. It used to vibrate for me now I have to leave the sound on to get notifications of texts.

That is weird. Mine doesn't do this. The phone operates just like normal. Try disabling the vibrate / re enabling it and then reboot
