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'm using an AT&T Note 3 for T-Mobile. I believe when 4.4 first came out I did not want to update so I froze the AT&T Software Update, however I now want to update OTA from 4.3 to 4.4.4. How do I re-enable the software update OTA? I tried doing a factory reset thinking it would recover it however it didn't. Whenever I go to Settings>General>About Device and tap Software Update nothing happens. I also tried using Samsung Kies 3 to update however it says I'm not the latest firmware, 4.3. Which I believe is not???
Any help is appreciated to update from 4.3 to latest android.
Thank you!
Found the answer to my question.
Use Odin.

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 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 have a S5 on AT&T but its unlocked and I went to a different carrier, and since it still has the A&T ROM it can only get the software update from an AT&T SIM which I don't have access to. Kies says my firmware's up to date, but I'm still in 4.4.4. Any help getting updated to Marshmallow through Odin?
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.

So, what can be done -- if anything--to solve this issue?
