Samsung​ has just released the new firmware update for US network unlocked galaxy note 8- N950U1, I want to preserve the root option at a later time so I decide not to update the software to BQK1 but the update icon bothers me too much, is there any way to get rid off that update icon indicator?

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.

Can i get the ota update simply or will it brick my rooted phone
Secondly if i delete all the unnecessary apps and unroot my phone then can ota update the phone and new Android version will be there without bloatware
Ps when can i expect 6.0 update

If you are rooted right now you will not be able to get ota updates. The only way to update is to go through odin and update or flash a rom with the newest update or unroot your device and then update.
I'd like to answer your second question but I would like some clarification on the question.
And the update to 6.0 could be from a couple of weeks to a couple of months or even longer. It depends on you carrier and samsung of course.
The phone is the international variant 920c dual sim
I have not rooted yet but will love to do it.
If marshmalow is near them i will wait
No rooted phones of Samsung will receive OTA updates. Unroot by flashing the stock rom with ODIN and look for OTA. Or else, download latest stock firmware from samobile or similar websites and update with ODIN. Then re-root if you want.
Yesterday (July 20) I got an OTA update on my factory unlocked S6 that updated me from PF1 to PG2. I suppose a similar update will come to T-Mobile models soon. According to Sammobile the last update (PF1) came out on the unlocked 920T 8 days before the T-Mobile version. My phone is still 6.0.1. The only change I noticed so far is vibration on the stock keyboard no longer works when power saving mode is on. Anyone else notice changes? I think part of this update is to allow Samsung Pay to work with the Gear S2.
I saw the forum posting saying that the android O update is rolling out in australia and new zealand. this got me concerned because i dont believe my phone can get OTA updates. I rooted and flashed roms and went back to stock, however my bootloader says the phone is modified and google play says the phone is uncertified. is there anyway i can go back to true retail stock to guarantee that i can receive the OTA update when it rolls out in the states?
If you have flashed the correct firmware according to the country where u live u will definately get OTA updates. Many times I flashed Oct security patch updates and after booting I get notification to update my phone. It doesn't matter if bootloader is locked or unlocked , modified or official . Even if you're rooted then also you will receive notification to update but if try to update it may crash. Just make sure it's a clean unrooted official firmware.
I still have the july security patch how do i get the october one?
Hey guys. Got an unlocked AT&T Note 9 here with model number N960U. Haven't received a single ota update since I got the phone. Had to manually download a firmware just to get me to Pie and One UI.
Haven't got any ota since then either. Stuck on January 1 security patch. What do I do? Don't mind flashing a firmware, but don't know which to flash.
Pls find my current software detail attached.
PS - I don't use AT&T. Matter of fact, I'm not in the US
