THREAD PENDING DELETION, FILES MOVED HERE: http://forum.xda-developers.com/att-galaxy-s5/general/g870a-updates-ph4-t3494717
Update files for G870A (S5 Active AT&T) to install via recovery.
Boot into recovery (google how)
Select file that updates your version
Flash, wait, boot into OS, pull battery
Repeat until you have the latest one installed (Verified until PH3)
https://www.mediafire.com/folder/i6zfchyp92zb2/G870A
There are some update paths that can skip certain updates. Check out the AT&T device page for which paths are possible:
https://www.att.com/devicehowto/tut...126238?make=Samsung&model=GalaxyS5ActiveG870A
For example: You can skip updating OF3 > OJ3 by updating OF3 > PB1 with the provided file.
The files here are all that I could retrieve by manipulating the download URLs like this:
Code:
https://xdmd.sl.attcompute.com/agents/42998/1488/SS-<OLDVERSION>-to-<LASTSIX-OF-NEWVERSION>-UP
Code:
https://xdmd.sl.attcompute.com/agents/42998/1488/SS-G870AUCS2DPH3-to-S2DPH4-UP
If you can retrieve any files for the device that I haven't added please drop me a PM with a link for the file and I will upload it too.
Enjoy your rugged phones!

[Guide] How to capture an OTA link for the Oneplus3/T
Step 0: You will need to have adb/fastboot tools setup on your computer. If you don't know how to use these tools, I suggest first learning about how to do so.
Step 1: Make sure you're running the latest version of OxygenOS, just before the update. For example, if you want to capture the OTA link for the 4.5.0 update, then make sure that you're running on the 4.1.7 build.
Step 2: Enable the Developer Options settings. Enable USB debugging. Connect your phone to the computer. In the terminal, type in adb devices. Accept the prompt that appears on your phone, and make sure that the device name shows up on the computer.
Step 3: If your phone has already received the option to OTA update (if you live in Germany, for example), proceed to step 4. If when you click on "update software", you do not see any update, then download a VPN app like Opera from the Play Store, and set the location to Germany.
Step 4:
a. To capture a partial OTA link (under 500mb)
Proceed to step 5.
b. To capture the OTA link of a full update
Your phone needs to be rooted. It is very important to note that just having a custom recovery installed, or having SuperSU installed will not trigger the OTA for a full download. That is because SuperSU roots your phone in a systemless manner. Having a custom kernel installed did not work for me either. Finally, I used phh's SuperSU, which triggered the download for the full update.
Step 5:
In the terminal, type adb logcat > OTA.txt. You can replace OTA.txt with any file name you like. On your phone, go to settings, and click on update software. You will be prompted with an OTA update download based on what you did in step 4. Click start download, and then click pause download. On the computer terminal, type control+C, which will stop the logcat.
Step 6: Now in the folder that you have adb set up, you'll see a text document called OTA.txt. Open this file. Using the search function, search for ".zip", and when you search around that text, you will find a download link, that allows you to manually download the OTA update.
In this manner, you will be able to capture the OTA download link, and download the update zip manually. Hopefully this helps more people capture OTA links in the future, so we have OTA links coming up on XDA faster. If you have any questions, feel free to ask in the comments.
I did not find a thread with the direct OTA link, so I went ahead and captured the OTA link myself. Enjoy
Great guide brother! Salute.
Or you can do another thing.... When your phone completed downloading full zip.. Then it ask you to update and reboot.. The just before reboot (after 100% download finish) don't touch on button that says update and reboot.. Come to home screen then go to file manager.. Go in file manager setting.. Enable Show Hidden folders... Come back to root directory... Then check a folder in root direvtory named ". OTA" (Dot OTA... Yes a Dot is mentioned before OTA).. Open it and take Backup of that 1.5 GB zip... Or if it you download OTA then you also get that one too...

I tested it. 100 for 100 on :cyclops:
It is necessary to return or to be emu 4. (MM).
Have the unlock code. (Bootloader).
Have downloaded the full firmware (2 files) Full-ota-mf-pv that twrp can install.
And have downloaded the firmware update, full full-ota-mf (no pv). (3 files).
pc+ winzip+ twrp (chinois), carteSD,
regard
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oTBvz71l4s0&t=1s
So on the pc, with winzip. Because with winrar for me it does not want to transfer large volumes. :
_ Downloaded a firmware emui 5. Full-ota-mf-pv for your device (it's a firmware in two files, which twrp for MM can install).
_______ update.zip and datafull hw-eu.zip
Uploaded emui update 5. Full-ota-mf not written pv and that does not share ota. But we want it. : (this is a firmware in three files).
________update.zip, public file and data hw-eu.zip
_ Open the update file of the pv version and delete the update.app, then open the update of the no pv version, and transfer update.app in the pv version.
Do the same thing with the datafull file hw-eu and data hw-eu.
In the public zip, there is a data folder with the product and system files.
In the zip data hw-eu, there is a data folder with the cust and version.
We can also transfer them.
In the zip data full hw-eu to data / hw_init :cyclops:
_copy your two new .zip files onto the SD card.
_start the phone in recovery twrp MM.
_ Go to wipe, advanced wipe, check all except well-sure sd card, and wipe to wipe.
_allez to install, installed both zip, it will show you two errors ignore them.
_allez to reboot, reboot system.
Hello

with this method, I can even install p10 lite.
can be checked, the update.app that is the good you place in the update.zip
go to wipe before installing update.zip edit this seems important.

If I am rooted and I have TWRP, can I install the update?
I installed update without come back in mm and without reset phone by this steps:
1)flash Hassan twrp recovery
2)download the 3 update file
3)extract update.app from update.zip and from update_full_VNS-L11_hw_eu.zip.
4)With Huawei update extractor extract the image file (system boot vendor cust version misc) from the two update.app and flash It with recovery. The product Image is not falshable, you have to extract this with ext4imageview
5)do a wipe cache and davilk and flash magisk zip to root. Install magisk manager (with the new update b391 i have some problem with supersu)
6)copy the file extract from product Image and data file extract from update_full_VNS-L11_hw_eu.zip and data_full_pubblic.zip in /data and in /product partition with solid Explorer with root permission.
Reboot
It's ok

We are not able ti flash product with this recovery, we can try to ask information to Hassan. The solution is to extract product.img with Android ICS JB EXT4 imagefile unpacker and copy the folder in /product with solid Explorer and root permission. It replace the file with the correct attribute. You have to use this metod to copy data folder

I've already asked him to hassan and he added to install twrp product image, but its not working.
I tried to copy pasted already with a file explorer, but every time, things break. (either with force close parameters, or force close camera, or boot-animation disappears and becomes android).
there is always something wrong.
Yes, we leave from MM everything is ok, clean.
You have to use solid Explorer It works!! With this procedure In five minutes I upgrade to last version
Managed to update to b382.
Seems stable and somehow, the battery is much better o^o
go
time to download, c432b390.
And to transfer everything in the b370 zip, then to go back to c432b160, I installed it correctly.
so this version is emu 5.0.1, patch September 1, version kernel 25 aug and baseband 286.
as you can see.
Updated to b382 vns-l21.
Problem : No notifications on Hangouts. I must go to my friend's chat in order to see the notification.
I have a question for @Chisetdel31260 or @Paolo83 or for whom I can answer it.
Is it still unclear if it is necessary or not the data_full public, which contains this .zip? And how can I add it without errors? Thanks to whoever can guide me :angel:
