Verizon Galaxy S4 getting OTA update, includes better support for non-Samsung chargers

Having become the first carrier to roll out the Android 4.3 update, Verizon is now focusing on improving its variant of the Galaxy S4 through minor updates, one of which is ready to roll out to devices as build VRUEMK2. A noticeable point in the changelog is that the phone will now work better with non-Samsung chargers – it already works great, but likely there was some issue related to using non-Samsung chargers that we weren’t aware of, and since it’s being fixed, we’ll let the fact that the problem exists slide.

Other changes in the update include improved email connectivity and data connections when using proxy servers, and consistent data roaming in Canada and Mexico. The update should begin rolling out soon, and you’ll get a notification in the status bar once it’s available. As always, don’t forget to do a manual check from the Settings » About phone » Software updates menu, even though that doesn’t always help things.
