hi everybody
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 ??
and dose AT&T will posh the update soon ??
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 bought a 9305 locked to EE in the UK, and unlocked it. I've been using giffgaff for the last couple of months.
I've yet to see an OTA update for 4.1.2. Has anyone with a locked EE phone seen an OTA update yet?
I'm curious as to whether the fact that I'm not running on EE anymore is the reason I'm not seeing the OTA update.
I couldnt get an OTA update so plugged it in via Kies and it updated. Try that

I bet you can still update as normal with kies. I haven't unlocked and still couldn't update through ota. I did it with kies and it was fine.
Also will be unlocking the phone officially via ee as I don't want to mess around with them. All.mobile companies are finding excuses to void warranties and leave you be once they hook you up with their contracts
Updated with kies last night. I would be nice if OTA worked, I can't stand kies.
Just realised when I unlocked i could do OTA updates.... just checked and no update for me. will try Kies tonight
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 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.

Hi, I hope this isnt a dumb question but I've searched and can find an answer. I have an unlocked att s5 running on tmobile network and want to know how I can update from 4.4.2 to 4.4.4 i have checked the software update on the phone and it says Up to date. I have also tried Kies3 and it says the same. My question is how do I update to 4.4.4. do i need a att sim card?

I believe this thread will be helpful. http://forum.xda-developers.com/att...to-root-g900aucu2aoa1-4-4-4-2-3-2015-t3021120
I am staying on 4.4.2 until 5.0 comes out but I would assume since its still the g900A you will always have to keep up with the AT&T updates like this since you can't take an OTA.
I purchased the carrier unlocked n8 from Best buy and using it in Verizon network. After realizing wifi calling and a few of the other features I wanted wouldn't work on the stock Samsung firmware I flashed to the Verizon AQ15 firmware using princecomsy modified odin. Now I'm receiving an OTA update and not sure if I should update OTA or going through odin?

You shoud be OK with this OTA update. It shouldn't update something that's not for firmware you are currently on.
Backup first and flash OTA, if something goes wrong (always have backup if you are doing anything else except stock official upgrade). That's the rule !
