Got mine (Bell Mobility, 4.0.4) last week, but I was too new with the phone to notice anything.

I got an update over night. Message read Name = update_sch-I535_LF2_to_LG7, Code = 200, Vendor = Samsung. Assuming this is just routine bug fixes or is there anything new?

I am rooted so I checked off OTA Survival and ran the updated. After the phone rebooted it said the update failed, but when I check the version it says IMM76D.I535VRALG7 which is what the update announcement says on Verizons site and I still have root. Should I be good in regards to the update actually taking and just producing a false "Failed" output?

I curious to find out if VZW's update plugged the hole allowing the bootloader to be unlocked. That's something that they wouldn't acknowledge in their list of "improvements." Does anyone know if they messed with the bootloader in the update?

Isn't the Universal Search one of the things Apple was sueing them over? Settlement update?

Those of you using EZ Unlock, have you run into this problem after the update: I 'locked' the phone and then went ahead with the update. After going through the motions, it said the update failed, but I see that I have the new I535VRALG7. However, right after my phone updated and started up, I got an updating EZ unlock, and then went to go re-unlock my phone. When I went into the app I saw that it said unlocked, so I clicked lock again just to see if it would lock. It gives me the message that my phone was succesully locked but it still says unlocked, and all I can do in the app is click lock, which does nothing but give me the popup message saying my phone has been succesfully locked....

I updated mine last night, again I've only had my phone about a week but I noticed last night my phone was having trouble picking up Wifi altogether. Seems to be running better now after a few reboots.
