Can't update AT&T Note 3 SM-N900A to 4.4.4 ? Here is why !

Mine started to update but didn't finish. Then when I checked later it said no update available............
I checked with AT&T tech support online and at the local store, even at the Samsung tech support at BestBuys..
They were no help and one said it was because of apps or that it was rooted.. I went back to stock three times trying to get it to update, to no avail..
Then on to more searches on the internet........Lo and behold I find this stuck away in one of their official post....Nice how all of the people didn't even know about it !

Interesting. .i do notice after the NJ5 4.4.4 update, my gps signal deteriorate big time. It would literally take minutes to get a lock and frequently loses gps signal when navigating. The gps service mode fix helped it out a bit but it is still not the same as before.
Good info

Manually update baseband to come current?

Ok so I just acquired an S6 (AT&T, OEM/not rooted) and I know that 7.0 is rolling out for it and after some investigating it seems that the only way I'll be able to update it to 7.0 from 6.0.1 is if my baseband is at a certain version, which it is not. There are 3 listed updates for this phone on the At&T site that I don't seem to have (SPL Nov 1, SPL Dec 1 & SPL Jan 1) and I'm wondering how I can apply these updates and at least have my phone up to date. I've tried checking OTA updates and also installing SmartSwitch and it says that my phone is currently updated and doesn't offer any patches. Any help is appreciated!
Here's a screenshot of where I'm at now-

No OTA updates if it's not on the AT&T network, sadly. I have an AT&T S6 on Cricket and I get my updates by going to a Best Buy with a Samsung Experience Center inside. They can update it for you. If that's an option based on where you live you can wait a couple weeks, they didn't have the Nougat update yet when I checked yesterday. Otherwise, since it's a new phone and presumably you don't have any data on it to lose, you can update manually. See this thread to start:

Thanks for the tips. I'm on cricket actually so going into a Best buy might be the best option when they get it. Do you have to pay them to do it? Will i get my phone back right away or do I need to leave it with them for a while ? Side question for you - do you use the hotspot on the s6? That's something else I'm trying to get working/enabled.
It's free. I've done it three times and it's been a breeze. You don't leave your phone, you just wait around for the updates to install. Depending on how many updates you are behind it can take a while, but there are plenty of ways to kill time at Best Buy. You can check online which ones have the Samsung Experience Center inside.
As for hotspot, I never use it.

anyone lose faceunlock after latest ATT update today?

I can see it's there but all of a sudden I can't choose it as an option.
I only use it for Samsung Pay. It's working for that. I took update yesterday.

Huawei P30 Pro - VOG-L29 - No OTA updates since May 2022

I have a P30 Pro, VOG-L29, bought in Singapore and the region is Singapore. CUST region shows spcseas. The last OTA update I got is from May 2022, EMUI 12.0.0.134 with the May 2022 security patches.
But I keep reading that others have gotten quarterly updates since then, and that the latest update is supposedly from February 2023.
But mine refuse to get any updates, I checked the "My Huawei" app as well but nothing there either.
Does anyone know if it's possible at all to "force" the latest OTA update? Or manually install it somehow?
This is still a great phone, but it worries me a bit that it's now lagging behind a year with no security updates.
