Help OTA Firmware URIs Found - Work still needed

[Nu11u5]

Thanks to chadmd23 for helping with ideas!

**Updated mistyped path: correct is /data/data/com.wssyncmldm
**Organized Links, removed redundancies
**Added firmware file link (see bottom)

In case visitors are wondering, this won't get your phone updated. It may help find a method later, though

Binary cache files were found in /data/data/com.wssyncmldm that specify various URIs related to T-Mobile's management system and firmware OTA updates. There is also a file 'fota_delta_dp' (~40MB) which I assume is the update file. I haven't had a chance to analyze it yet but it is not a zip file.

The URIs can only be accessed from within T-Mobile's wireless network.

If you are checking out the files to analyze them, make sure your phone is not using Wifi. It must be using the data connection to find the server.

It is possible that the websites are IMEI filtered and preventing you from accessing them. I will be posting the update file in the OP when I can.

This link... https://fota.t-mobile.com:443/agents/10475/1001/delta_T939UVIJ6Plus_to_T939UVJA3 ..is the only one that appears to be the firmware update. Until we know what to do with it its not useful though.

When I check on my phone I wasn't using wifi. I was on 3G and it didn't work.

I was able to load the Update "Page", but it was a binary encoded file that Dolphin tried to display. So I can get it, but can't do anything with it.

I haven't been able to download it with a browser either. You will probably need to use something like 'wget' from a console. Busybox supposedly has it implemented.

Trying this now.

when I entered that link in my phones browser I started to see those red and blue bars people were talking about and it would not let me use my phones internet what so ever I was rally hoping I was about to receive the update but nothing at all man I wish never heard about this update cause there seems to be little hope

 

[Nu11u5]

any luck?

Nope. I haven't found an implementation of wget or something similar that supports the SSL connection

If someone can find a downloader that supports SSL then it should work.

I did copy the update file once I found it on the device. Unfortunately I left it on my other computer and won't be able to upload it until tomorrow.

If anyone thinks they can beat me to it go ahead.

Just downloading the file won't do much. We still haven't figured out how to force it to install.

 

[mmandros]

I was wondering. Like most on these forums I run a task killer. Could there be a process that we are killing, inadvertently, that is looking for the download? Is this OTA updated pushed to our phones or does our phone go looking for it?

Maybe a dumb question but maybe not....

Thoughts?

a lot of ppl dont think task killers on a reg behold 2 does any good they just come right back. The ota gets pushed to your phone

The update software in the settings? I bet it looks for the files and initiates the install.

 

[paul89]

the only file i was able to download was 12121Kb big!

I am not done downloading it yet though
I can't seem to get past the 57% mark, it says bad socket when it stops

Some of the links just go to status pages, others download files. I'm also making the assumption that all downloads from these links will be the same firmware - that would need to be tested.

I can summarize Behold 2 Update like below according all related posts.

[What to be updated]


Known issues solved:

• Bluetooth error: Unable to Pair or Unable to connect device
• Battery indicator may display more charge than the phone has
• Holding menu opens keypad, but does not respond, now goes to contacts
• Phone constantly vibrates
• Memory card un-mounts and re-mounts intermittently
• Music plays automatically when accessing the music player
• Incoming emails do not show the return email address
• Corporate emails stop syncing

New additions:

• Evernote application added
• Where&#8217;s Waldo game added
• Midnight Bowl 2 game added
• Music Player auto-play upon launch corrected
• &#8220;About&#8221; phone menu added to Settings, Quick List>Settings>About Phone
• Boot screen animation change (now Samsung logo)
• Delay reduction for proximity sensor while on a call
• Battery icon status in notification bar now matches screen lock battery status

[Version before update]
Baseband version T939UVIJ6
Kernel version 2.6.27 behold@sep-01 #1
Build number 76XXCSDCBALUM6375
FTA SW VERSION: T939.006 (by pressing #9999#, this may be applied to all samsung phones)

[Version after update]
Baseband: T939UVJA3
Kernel: 2.6.27 root@sep-26 #1 Sat Jan 16 21:15:14 KST 2010
Build Number: 76XXCSDCBALUM6375
FTA SW VERSION: T939.006 (by pressing #9999#, this may be applied to all samsung phones)

[Update method]
- Not using Android System Update according to above post
- Above urls are related OMA FUMO (Firmware Update Management Object) over OMA DM (Device Management) protocol
- If the url below is valid for all phones, you can download the update file but it may be different from update.zip which is used by Android system update. In conclusion you cannot install the update file if you cannot find the the method. Speaking again Behold 2 may not use Android system update which is used on almost android phones.
https://fota.t-mobile.com:443/agents/10475/1001/delta_T939UVIJ6Plus_to_T939UVJA3
- You can find the difference UI while doing update.

Finally I wonder why you cannot wait for update notification. I think it is because the operator does not inform detail information. In general the DM server sends bulk notification by IMEI range. The ordering policy will be determined by the operator or server administrator.

Can you try *#*#2432546#*#* (*#*#checkin#*#*)

This should query the server for pending updates. You should receive a 'checkin result success' notification if the check suceeded.

Just did. Twice. No notification came up in the first few minutes. How long is it supposed to take?

i posted this earlier, and it never worked for me and the others!

 

[kam187]

ahh ok

I think it only works if its built into android source AND you have a pending update.

Can someone download these files and host them somewhere? I'll check them out!

 

[tritran18518]

maybe this guy has the file

i tried downloading one of them, the 12mb one, and at the end once the download was done it said Unsuccessful!

 

[kam187]

I assume it didnt save the file?

 

[kkarlin]

@KAM187, is there a way to get an https download from any of the tools in busybox?
I tried wget, but that didn't work.

 

[kam187]

wget needs to be compiled with openssl. If it is, it should handle it itself.

You can try wget --help and look for this options:

--secure-protocol

if its not there, there's no support.
