Downloaded update automatically, restarted and updated, and booted up...All just fine and normal...Can't tell any difference really...

In order to get mine to finally update, I had to download the Surface Pro 3 Platform installer, found here. I used the MSI.
Then, I used Windows update and it took the firmware update fine.

I'm now having network connectivity issues like from 2014. Have to disable and re-enable wireless again for it to find WiFi networks. Balls.

Does anyone use their docking stations to charge their phones? After the firmware update, my phone wont charge unless the surface is on.

Bummer.

never mind. Seemed to have been a one off incident.

I have seen a 5/14 update but no 5/19, are these the same?

Windows 10 users received the Firmware update earlier than Windows 8.1 users....

I ran in the same problem. 6 Surface Pro 3 on AD-Domain. finding the firmware-update and downloading it. After the urgend message popping up to reboot the SP3in order to install the firmware it does its reboot but without installing any firmware updates.
And even after downloading them manually from the link provided earlier by dajogjr (https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=38826) I randomly have the windows update telling my to update my firmware to 5/19/15. That is so weird. And also I do suspect the issue mentioned in this post: http://www.surfaceforums.net/threads/dockingstation-issues.10514/page-2 is increasing with this firmware.

Confirmed and downloading it now

• Surface Pro 3 UEFI update (v3.11.850.0) includes changes needed for compatibility with the updated graphics driver.
• HD Graphics Family driver update (v10.18.14.4170) improves graphics performance and includes better Miracast (wireless display) support.
• Display Audio driver update (v6.16.00.3172) improves audio experience and supports compatibility with the updated graphics driver.

I found. My widi only support 720p, it's getting worse, before I can get 1080p, what's wrong with that.
