Hello I need to update only the boot loader as I am on Tmobile now and use safestrap. I would like to put a tmo lollipop ROM on my phone but the boot loader is 4.4.2 and my baseband is G900AUCU1ANCE . any help would be great. I no longer have att so I can't do an ota update to fix this
Thanks
Just use the muniz_ri upgrade thread. Regardless of what service you use you have an att model and is only compatible with att software, you can run other model's roms(im running a tmo lollipop rom now) just as long as it doesnt use incompatible firmware.

Hello All
I'm new with this phone and I want to update it to 4.4, currently is running 4.3 but until now I can find a way to flash the 4.4 rom, maybe my bootloader is locked because odin don't let me flash it, also i'm looking for a debranded version
Regards

Your bootloader is locked, I'm guessing you're on UBUBML3 firmware. The only way you can update (or install any other firmware for that matter) is to get official firmware for your pone that has been signed by Samsung. The AT&T 4.4.2 update will not work on your phone unfortunately, so you're going to have to get the update directly from Telcel.

Is it possible to flash stock Telcel ROM over AT&T ROM?

No
Can anyone tell me if there is a specific kernel that needs to be flashed along with custom roms when running on Mexican carrier Telcel??
I want to get rid of the AT&T updating process and their branding on the phone entirely. I am running MJ5 4.3 JB, and from what I was able to do with my S4, I can flash an international version without the branding. Is this correct with the note 3?
no you cant the boot loader is locked. youre stuck with the at&t
I currently have 920A with newest OTA 7.0.
I downloaded 920F ILO 7.0 from sammobile, but it has only one file. I'm using Odin 3.12.7 and when I put the one MD5 file in the AP section (I leave the rest of the sections blank) it fails.
What am I missing? I'm wanting to use a stock unlocked firmware to remove the ATT bloatware.

It wont work cuz the firmware you are trying to flash is not for the device you are trying to flash to. att s6 has a locked boot loader and only tethered root options available last time i checked.

Is this true across the board? I also have a 920V with verizon's bloatware on it. So I won't be able to flash to an unlocked firmware like 920F to get a 'clean' OS?
idk on the 920v. i dont have one so i have not followed the forum for that device. as far as flashing a different devices firmware to a device not meant for it. its generally a bad idea. id look for answers in that devices specific page.

Doesn't this thread prove otherwise?
https://forum.xda-developers.com/sp...m-tar-gs7e-unlocked-model-rom-update-t3412265
I realize that is for an S7 edge on Sprint network but isn't the concept the same?
its not for att. it wont work on an att s7 device. Att devices dont get love for most part. its a stock firmware from samsung that doesnt have carrier bloatware. for vzw, spr or tmo from the thread itself based off the unlocked usa model.. your device has a locked bootloader. so even finding the (6920f) firmware and flashing anything but samsung firmware for that device (6920a) is going to a. fail in odin or b. brick that phone. its your device. what you do is on you.

Hi all,
I bought the Galaxy S6 from AT&T when it came out, but switched over to T-Mobile from AT&T last year. Because of this, I have been unable to get any updates and have been stuck on Android 6.0 when the current release is android 7.0, so I've been thinking of flashing my phone. I was curious as to whether I'm able to flash my G920A with Tmobile's G920T rom? Would it work? And if so, after I flash it, would I be able to receive updates normally from T-mobile's servers, as I'm currently using a T-mobile sim, or would I have to flash every subsequent update?
Thanks
Doubtful, since AT&T has a locked bootloader. If the bootloader was unlocked you might be able to try.

You cannot flash a G920T firmware on a G920A. First off, Odin won't let you because the G920T firmware is only signed to be flashed on the G920T.
And even if you somehow rooted and used FlashFire to force the firmware onto your device, the firmware would brick the device, and without a USB jig or SD card port, the brick would be permanent.

I too am seeking answers on this as I have an SM-920A I brought over to t-mobile. Unlocked the phone, installed the t-mobile SIM and the phone works fine, except, it still has all the old ATT apps I no longer need or desire to be there AND without the T-Mobile apps installed, I cannot use their LTE Signal Booster. Is there any way I can install these t-mobile apps that would have come with the SM-920T load?

Just do this and remove the AT&T apps you don't want completely.

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 !
