Buddy it's for original google play edition or u are using carrier edition means verizon or tmobile etc..??

Even if you receive the update don't do it. It will rewrite your kernel and i9505 does not fare well with i9505g kernel.

Buddy i am using i9500. I am just asking bcz there are many news to get 5.1 or 5.1.1, and whatever update will 1st came to mr. GPE.

Can't use SamFirm to actually check for firmware because I9505G does not receive its firmware through Kies.
We'll have to wait for the source code or OTA package to be posted so somebody can make use of it.

Yup.

Someone caught the OTA http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2449400

This maybe improves chances for regulars s4 to get 5.1

So long as the region is fine, it doesn't affect Sim-Lock - I'd just hang tight and let KIES do it's thang man, safer that way
Too bad then. Since I'm in Asia and that firmware belongs to Poland.

Either ODIN or you download the update.zip file from the closed thread about it. It wouldn't be able to connect to the American apn/AT&T update as far as I know.

The 4.4 leak is out now but when the official update comes you just have to wait for someone to upload the update.zip file and you can flash it through the stock recovery.

It's been out for a while now. Look at all the NB1 threads in the general section.

I would settle for 4.3 instead of the 4.2.2 that I have.
The baseband Version is I9505GUEUAMFD
Build Number is JDQ39.I9505GUEUAMFD
ThankFor all your Help But I fixed the bug with OTA and now its Updating.

what changes are they?
The only change I've noticed is that my Back soft button no longer works after the the GOK2 update. Not too happy about them hosing my phone OTA.
My bad. I have a i337m and hoped that there was a complete collection for the i337.
