How to update from K50a40_S327_160517_ROW? - K3 Note Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
Some time ago I flashed my K50-t5 with the K50a40 ROM, mostly to have access to Google Play without root and to receive regular, official firmware updates. After the flash the device automatically updated several times, but for a while now no new updates are available. My current firmware version is K50a40_S327_160517_ROW, but I've seen newer versions popping up on needrom.com, etc.
Why doesn't my device download these updates automatically? How do I upgrade my firmware without root?

[Q] Flashing CWM Recovery - can't see my phone model

Hello all! Hopefully, I put this thread in correct section. If not, please move it.
Anyway, here is my question.
I installed ROM Manager because I want to try some other ROMs on my SGS i9000 and when I want to flash the CWM Recovery, the only option I get is Google Nexus S. Is this normal? Should it show my model? Can there be any problems if I choose Google Nexus S option?

Thank you!
What ROM are you currently on ? if its a custom ROM you may have the Nexus Drivers, and that could be why it is only showing you that option.
there are many other ways of flashing a custom ROM so dont give up if ROM Manager starts acting up.
i personally prefer a flash with ODIN and all update Flashes through CWM
I recently upgraded from 2.2.1 to 2.3.3. Here you can see more info:
As far as i know, this is not a custom ROM, just leaked one. Or am I wrong? I upgraded it with ODIN too and it wasn't hard, I just think it would be even easier, if i didn't have to use the computer and could download ROMs directly on the phone.

And finally Failed.
i tried again & again but failed. please post solution. but not third party like use customize rom or recovery.
You can flash the official ST ROMs with the stock recovery. Download an official ROM, place it in the root of your SD Card (the file must be named update.zip if I remember correctly) and then boot into recovery and flash the update.
Download links for the official ROMs can be found on hackerpower's Index Thread.
NAR
Or you could try this...
Check which version you have (ex: VIBEUI_V2.8_15xx_x.xxx.x_ST_K50-T5_xxxx) from Settings/About).
Once done, check which update you need from the link below, download it and flash using the SPF tool.

Bootloader version in the newest ota update

I'm using Indian XT1068 and I finally got the notification for this update:

I had already updated the bootloader to version 0x4667 grabbing it from latin america's update.
Which bootloader version does this update contain? I'm worried to update because I know any conflict with the bootloader can ruin the device.

If anybody needs to know, I updated and the bootloader version is 48.87 only.

please if any one can help me i'll be so greatfull. the only info i can get now for my phone is:
IC: 6369A EVA-L09

What do you mean by local update method?
Also do you remember which build number the phone was on before you tried the update to nougat? The build number is something like EVA-L09CxxxBxxx (E.g mine is EVA-L093C432B386)
Are you refering to this image below:

Help! Wonda mobile Rog 2 without OTA

Hi everyone.
So I bought the Rog 2 from wonda mobile and at the time it was sold as Chinese version flashed with global rom WITH OTA updates.
I just checked the item page at Wonda and now they have amended the description/Q+A to now say that NO OTA and that updates have to be done on computer.
I assume that the bootloader was unlocked on this mobile before they flashed to global WW ROM, I have attached screenshot from devicehw - PLEASE CONFIRM IF MY BOOTLOADER IS UNLOCKED.

}
If my bootloader is already unlocked, and I already have global WW ROM installed 1908. 12_0, what is the process for me to install the latest WW update?
And finally, if I install the latest updates can I keep all my data and settings? Or do I have to backup/restore every single time?
All help is appreciated, thanks in advance :good:
Anybody?
You need to change your fingerprint to be WW following the guide in the Guides channel. No OTA updates for you. To update, you have to place the update file in the root directory of the phone and the system will pick it up and flash without you losing your data. This is covered in the guides section.
