Apparently everyone else in the entire world has updated to 4.2.2 officially. Has anyone from the United States specifically T Mobile customers gotten the latest update yet?

It will be months till tmobile gets it,they only released it a week or two ago, who knows they may skip it to 4.3 but there's no way if they were gonna update this fast they would have released with it,just flash it through the flashtool root not needed

I was hesitated about flashing and rooting my Z, but I just did everything and I am running 4.2.2 and rooted with my t-mobile Z. You can search hear to see how to flash and root.
Root is quite easy. Change some settings on your phone, plug, click and ready to be rooted. Flashing is bit more work to be done but they are also easy such as install drivers for your Z in flash mode (like DFU mode in iOS) to make Flash software to work.

I have the Tmobile 6606 and I tried flashing both German and French 422 updates and couldn't get lte to work no mater which way I flashed with or without baseband and the exact apn settings with lte preferred click. Just won't work for me.
Flashing stock firmwares on this phone is not much different than doing the same on Samsung and HTC phones. A few things to download and that's it. If you've ever used Odin with a Samsung phone before, it's a very simaler process.

You have to keep stock t-mobile baseband to make it works.

First of all he said he tried it that way,second I have updated to the 423,then 244 and both times did full flashes with the baseband never excluded and it's been fine I have full lte with no problems you do not need the 6606 baseband for it to work,but again he said he tried both ways

That's strange. 6603 and 6602 don't have LTE_BC4 for at least t-mobile LTE. I haven't tried flashing their baseband, but 6506 baseband doesn't work for me.

You definitely still have t-mobile Z baseband.
Your stock baseband hasn't changed.
Here is my stock and 6506 baseband. I just flash baseband only.
With 6506 baseband, I don't get t-mobile LTE even though it has LTE_BC4

You just remind me imei number, thanks.
.. and I'm using Bell Mobility SIM. In order to receive the recent firmware upgrade, should I have a Rogers /Fido SIM card installed? I'm under the impression that the updates came in batches via the imei's...

Apparently the Rogers update is in motion, however i have not seen the update but my phone yet. Anyone in a similar situation?

OTA updates have nothing to do with your phone being unlocked, as long as you're running the stock factory ROM. As long as your software is stock, you will receive the OTA whenever they roll it out in batches, irrespective of SIM lock/unlock.

Ok, yes I have the stock firmware in place.
And just to be clear, it does not matter which simcard is inside the phone?

Nope doesn't matter. The only requirement is that your software be what it shipped with.

AT&T S6 Root on OF3
Just got my new Samsung Galaxy S6 with AT&T. Tried PingPong root, to no avail. Here's my info:
SAMSUNG-SM-G920A
Android 5.0.2
G920AUCU2AOF3
Kernel 3.10.61-4823236
Jun 18 2015
Can anyone give me a hand rooting this thing? I saw some posts saying the -OF3 variant isn't rootable, and to downgrade or rebuild the kernel to a previous date.
You have to wait. No root method yet for OF3 or OF4. You can't downgrade either.

Anyone already on 5.1.1 without root? try some common root methods. Pingpong, etc. To see if anything works.
Hey you never know if an older exploit makes its way back into newer releases. It's happened before.
Please post your results and what methods you've tried.

So, I wonder how long it will be before we have Flashfire files for OI2; rooted or otherwise? I'm not expecting current root methods to work, and am absolutely FINE waiting however long it takes for root. Meanwhile, I'm reading that 5.1.1 brings us an overall performance improvement, and just for that reason, I am soooooo excited we're FINALLY getting it!!!

What the purpose of this thread or at least my intention was to have people attempt current root methods on OI2. Also to obtain the tar for 5.1.1 since I have all of my OTA services disabled. I could enable them but if someone had the tar already that would be better.
Additionally, I'd like to work towards a root method with other devs and enthusiast's for 5.1.1. Not that this release will be any easier than OF3/4 But you never know.
Thanks.

I would settle for the OTA file to sideload with ADB just to get the update but the .tar would be fantastic. I read that the edge guys sideloaded the OTA and retained root from 5.0.2.

I'm not sure that's been confirmed successful yet. I've been actively keeping track of the ATT S6 Edge forums since I got the phone in April. Many users (including me) have yet to update from OE2 (5.0.2) because that's the last update where we were able to keep root. I know that there are threads here on the regular S6 forum where people upgraded from OE2 to OF3 and OF4 while retaining root, but I haven't seen that happen on the Edge yet. (SOMEONE PLEASE HELP US EDGE USERS!)
In regards to the OI2 upgrade for the Edge, I saw 1 post for someone that "said" they upgraded from OE2 (5.0.2) to OI2 (5.1.1) and kept root, but no one else has had any luck with that yet.
Has anyone got the OTA file for the standard S6 yet?
All the roms are now based on a build that's not official at least in the T-Mobile website we still have 5.0.1 aka COD6. My question is if I update my device to the new Android version. Will T-Mobile not notice that ? Im going to jump to a new device soon. But will like to try out the new 5.1.1 see how smooth it is.

I've been with tmobile for about 8 years. My experience has been the people at the tmobile stores could care less if your phone has a custom ROM. Ive wiped my phone front of them the phone goes into a custom recovery. Either they are oblivious or don't care. As long as the phone turns on, the glass is not cracked and there is no sign of water damage, your safe
