What's up with the latest update for AT&T variant? - Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I got an update yesterday (09/28/2015) and I have no clue what is it about. Is there any way to know the changelogs for AT&T updates? They won't give any details on the download.

Are you referring to the OI6 update? If so, it was just a small update preparing the device for Samsung Pay.

The update is killing my battery life. Since Aug 29th I've been averaging about 3.5% per hour with between 3 and 4 hours of SOT. Today I'm at over 7.5% so far with only about 1 hour of SOT!!!
Damn! Battery performance was something I was really happy about....

OTA update pushed back a bit

Verizon had been telling me that the OTA update for the Bionic would be available in mid-November. But I just saw elsewhere that a mod on the Motorola support forums posted on 11/1 that the update would be available in 30 to 60 days. So I guess we still have a little while to wait.

We all think that's a stock statement. The consensus, pronounced guess, is still next week.

a NEW 4.2 version? OTA Updates suck

I rec'd my Nexus 7 Tab a couple of weeks ago. Immediately there was a flurry of updates landing me at 4.2. Today I rec'd notice there a new update had been downloaded and was ready to install! The new version? 4.2.
After reading some of the woes others have experienced with 4.2, I'm wondering if I have a "different" version of 4.2 (that works just fine.)
The constant stream of OTA updates is a pain in the arse. Can we get on a 3 month release cycle?

December bug fix they had to release before December started hence the update, it isnt usually that frequent.

Sign up with Verizon. You will be lucky to ever get another Android update.
Is this a serious thread? You're actually complaining about updates?
You do realise that these updates improve your device (new features & bugfixes). Are they really that much of an inconvenience for you?
10 whole minutes of downtime. The horror!
Yeah buy any android device that doesn't have "nexus" in the name and you won't have to worry about android updates anymore...

How many of these threads do we need?
locking this. There are plenty of OTA threads to post in guys...

Software Update (Stock) Galaxy Note 4 N910F

Hello guys,
Many of you allready have the Note 4 rooted, but I do not. I'm from Portugal and have a N910F model.
Last Sunday or Monday I just installed the recent software update that my Note 4 was asking for me to install it. All Stock.
The problem is that after the update, I'm having a poor battery life for example at night. Before I could have just 2% drop at night, now I have like 10/12%. I'm having wakelocks from time to time, without touching the phone.
Anyone knows how to report this to the developers? Because this was a poor update..
Thank you guys!

That's surprising for a budget device. Then again I was surprised when my Tab A 2015 got 2 upgrades.

You tried a factory reset?.....Mines 2 yrs old battery is still %100, do you use the Optimiser daily? also did you upgrade Oreo if so? do it fresh factory.

I think its because I've dropped it or maybe water damage because it does'nt seem like a software issue and it still happens after trying those. And yes I do run the optimiser daily and I'm on oreo
I got upgrade to 9.0 two days ago for 330F, upgrading fails for 3 times. Battery above 30%, no low-memory notification.

Flash via odin.I recommend rooting and installing NFS-Injector and Universal GMS Doze because this device is incapable of Stock Pie.

T-mobile Note 9 Pie Update Status

As the title suggests, I'm on the T-mobile Note 9. I was looking around online for a Pie update and found this page. I thought I'd share for those who hadn't seen it.
https://support.t-mobile.com/docs/DOC-39346
Apparently, there are three different statuses: Development, Testing and Complete.
As of yesterday, the Note 9 was still in Development. Today, it is in the Testing mode. Lets hope we're getting pretty close to the release!
EDIT 3/2/2019
According to the above link, the device is still in TESTING. In this document, Android 9 Pie HAS BEEN released as of 3/1/2019, but only to a limited audience. Not sure if this is a test group or what's going on.
EDIT 3/3/2019
Hi everyone. Please keep this on topic. The reason I made this thread is to provide a reference (T-mobile users) on the status of the update. If you need assistance getting back on the OTA track, please create your own topic. Furthermore, this thread is meant for users on the T-mobile SM-N960U, "probably not" the SM-N960U1 , which I know nothing about. Thanks!
EDIT: 3/4/2019
According to the document I originally posted, the phase of the update has now changed to COMPLETE. Hopefully, I'll have it by the end of the week, but we shall see how long actual deployment takes. The document provided in the 3/2/2019 update of this thread does not detail any further updates past 3/1/2019.
I just checked for updates. A security level patch level February 1, 2019 is now downloading. Size 1867.41 MB. Versions: N960USQU1CSB3 / N960UOYN1CSB3.
EDIT: 3/5/2019
I'm now on Android Version 9 / N960USQU1CSB3.
First Impression: I do not like the fact that the time clock is moved to the left side. They should've kept it where it was. I'll be looking for a way to change it.
I'm hoping it comes out next week. Att already has it, so I dont know what's taking them soo long to release it for tmobile
My wife's S9+ got the update today from TMobile. I'm surprised that S9+ got it first before Note 9.
Today it shows its moved to testing, hoping to get it soon now.

Been like that all week.
My guess you won't see any updated to the Note 9 till long after the S10 is in stores. T-mobile is a crap company and this is how they do business. They will hold the update till we have had many weeks to look at the S10. T-mobile want you to spend the money on the upgrade. It's the 25th of February this update has been available on unlocked devices for nearly a month. AT&T has had it on their Note 9 for a few weeks already.

If any part of what you said was even remotely true, then they wouldn't have pushed the update to their S9/+. Note 9 owners aren't the target audience for the S10/+
Imo keep Oreo untill the next Pie update at least. It has bugs and if you just got the device there may be things you want but aren't on Pie.
Updates are fine but OS version changes I let others be the guinea pigs...

Just talked to a Tom rep, they stated they were sorry about removing the note o update and that they were in process of approving a new update that would release in March but that he was not sure. Smh

Assuming similar as the U1 update not dropping until March as well
This is depressing
However, I did update mine manually using the OTA that is posted. Could wait for T-Mobile.
Went fairly smooth. Couple minor issues, one with Google Home. Home would crashed every time I opened it. In the end, a factory reset brought everything in line.
I would recommend this upgrade to anyone and I would also recommend just side-loading it like I did.
Pie is ugly and slow

Ugly can be changed with a theme but then again ugly is subjective.
As far as speed .. it actually behaves faster on my 9 then Android 8.x did. Not sure what you are running on yours that would slow it down so much.
Been on Pie now for a week. Love it. Better battery life, faster in almost every aspect. Didn't wanna wait for TMO to push it so went the firmware science route.
Haven't experienced any issues that have been reported, quite the opposite for me. I personally prefer pie over Oreo, but that's just me. Now if only, they fix the Swift installer app to work with Pie (unrooted) now.
Saw this on Droid Life just now...

I'm on CSAA will it be able to OTA to the least tmobile on release?
I am currently on Tmobile with the version N960U1UEU1ARL1, would i have to wipe my device if I download the update manually? In any case, I can't seem to find my version on the Firmware Science form so do i just have to wait for the unlocked version of the update or am I eligible for TMOBILE's
I am confused, on the official T-Mobile update page, it lists N960U1UEU1CSB3 as the build number for the update. I thought N960U1UE specifies it's for the unlocked N960U1, where as carrier builds for the N960U are N960USQ?
