Firmware update

I got a Firmware update for my S4 this evening, well it came during the afternoon but I was at work when I was notified. It was 384mb (or there abouts) I've no idea what this was.

I have to assume it was this one.

There are a few different threads about it, if it's the same one. "VRUAME7" would a good thing to search on.

Looks like the OP is in the UK and not on VZW.


Did the update say what firmware it's downloading or asking you to install??

Good point, well OK then, it's a different update - feel free to ignore my previous message.

I am in the UK using S4 Sim Free and it has just uploaded as well being about 384Mb. Which is the firmware numbering? Baseband version or Android version 4.2.2?

I can't recall it mentioning any name before agreeing the install.

I've not noticed any differences, yet

I have just had the update, and it is Android v4.2.2 and the baseband version is I9505XXUBMGA.

I see that it allows you to transfer apps to the SD card (or was that in a previous update?)

That's what I thought the last update was for too, hey ho, not to worry.

There has also been a problem, affecting many people, with crackling/distortion at high volume on earphones, which has been cured in this update. (At least, it has been for me.)
