If I switch to T-Mobile with my sim unlocked AT&T Atrix HD will it still be possible to get OTA updates -- such as to 4.2 or 5.0 -- when they are available? It appears to me that these updates are only pushed by the original provider.
I'm on T-Mobile and I get nagged about updates all the time.
Sure you can get the update. It will show the upgrade msg only if you are currently on ICS and will update it to jelly bean. Be sure to do it when you have more that 50% battery and WiFi is a safer option. Note that you can't downgrade!!!!!
And you must unroot your device if you are rooted. Otherwise upgrade will not complete but won't make your phone dead either.

Hello I Purchased A HTC One AT&T Unlocked Online, But I Don't Live In The US I Don't Use AT&T Sim I Try To Update My Firmware From Android 4.1.2 to Android 4.3 I Am In Need OF This Update Can Someone Please Help Me.
It Isn't Bootloaded
It Isn't Rooted
I Have Never Received A Update (From Either HTC or AT&T)
Please Help.
How did you try to update it?
Not being on AT&T won't prevent the update, you just need internet access. Maybe you can download the OTA and stick it in the right place , if there's a link somewhere. Is AT&T even up to 4.3 yet? 4.2.2 was skipped.

For The Past 3 Days I Have Tried Several Ways, No Help When i Try It Says No Update Available.
An When I Use The AT&T Update The Box Dissapears.
What's the AT&T update? Anyway, have you confirmed there even is an update? I understand HTC wanted US carriers on 4.3 by some date, but don't recall which or whether it happened.
same problem here..

Its The Software That Comes With AT&T Phones That Allows Them To Update Android Firmware, I Was Wondering If There Was A Way To Remove At&t An Run Stock HTC Sense On The Phone.

i have an N900A and this is my first time with AT&T phones
i'm not in the US and i unlocked my phone already
the question is do i still enable to get the OTA update ??

If the phone is rooted u won't get OTA updates. Have to find the files and update with ODIN. If isn't root it will get OTA updates

I have an international galaxy s4 that I bought from dubai. I was wondering about the same question. After searching I found out that the phone will only update if it is in the same country that the phone purchased from. I can't confirm that but you might look it up.

Just use Samsung Kies if you want official updates.
Yep
If you've the unlock through the carrier and your device isn't rooted, you'll receive the update regardless of your location.
I recently bought a factory unlocked at&t s4 active. Will i still get updates from samsung even though its unlocked from at&t carrier. Mine is struck at 4.2.2 . When I try to update it in About device>Software update it says "Software update interrupted. No updates available. Plz try after 24 hours".
Will be happy if someone has answers for this.
The OTA update comes from AT&T servers, not Samsung, I believe that you have to be an AT&T customer to use the update function on phone.

I have the Pure Edition with a T-Mobile SIM card, however, I have not yet activated it with T-Mobile.
Will OTA updates work while I am connected to Wifi? It keeps telling me that I am up-to-date, so it seems like It is checking. However, it has never told me there is an update available while I was on KitKat. I had to manually upgrade to Lollipop (22.11.6)
Thanks.
I have an HTC M7, Running Android 4.1.2, (on AT&T Network). I bought it "unlocked" (used), and have been trying to update it to 4.3 or higher. The Update function inside the settings supposedly downloaded an update (271MB) and informed me the phone was up to date after a lengthy download and install. But I didn't notice a change in anything. It still says 4.1.2 (#1.26.504.12). Someone help me please. The HTC website says this phone is supposed to be updated to lollipop.

at&t phones must be connected to the at&t network to update. The best solution imo, is to S-OFF the phone and convert it to another version.
This phone is connected to AT&T Network... It updated once.
