Help i can't update to android 4.4.4

I tried 3 ways.
cellphone: Samsung Galaxy s3 gt-i9305 android 4.3
1) Kies3, kies to connect the computer recognizes that there is a upgrade and follow the steps. do the backup, press on with the update and after spending hours downloading files from the update tells me it does not recognize the device even re-installing the drivers. (That and I have done several times and always wasting time waiting hours while kies download again and again the firmware).
2-) OTA, is the upgrade for the phone right? Good tells me there is a new update android 4.4.4 OS weighing 592MB, unfortunately I have no wifi so I tried to update it with my telephone mbs plan. But there comes a time when the download is falling and losing 64% mbs.
3) Odin online there are many tutorials and I've tried several times also, the version I've used is the v3.09, the tutorial says it must recognize the disposito yellow leaves me but I like light blue. Similarly I follow the process but always remains in "odin get pit for mapping" after a few minutes out failed.
Well I tried these 3 ways to upgrade and I could not, now I have several problems with the phone the greater is that sometimes get calls and sometimes not.
please help.

Flashing stock firmware using Odin/Smar Switch - does not work

Hi all,
I'm having an odd issue. No matter whether I used Odin or Smart Switch I can simply not flash a stock firmware. Regardless of the method, the following always happens.
Downloads firmware to device
Reboots
Shows Android dude with "Installing update"
Stops half way through
Shows Android dude with "Erasing"
Disappears after few seconds
Reboots
Nothing is changed. Same as before the whole process...
EDIT: I actually got somewhere. I flashed an older firmware than the one on my device and it did change the firmware and baseband, but it didn't erase all the data... Is this the normal procedure when you flash a firmware using Odin?

Is it possible Android stops the software update if it sees the battery life is not high enough?
EDIT: nope. Charged to 100%, tried again in Odin. Same story...

Try changing usb cables or ports on your computer..make sure you are using a usb 2.0 port on your computer.

I actually got somewhere. I flashed an older firmware than the one on my device and it did change the firmware and baseband, but it didn't erase all the data... Is this the normal procedure when you flash a firmware using Odin? I was sure it would completely wipe the device. Is there a setting I'm missing?

Stock firmware not correct work...
Good morning guys,
I have a problem installing a new firmware with Odin often you accept it as an update of the same non-erasing the data partition and then of course creates problems of battery drain absurd.
Other times aa deletion is successful but the phone has an abnormal battery consumption by approximately 6% per hour, in first place in consumption are the Android operating system entries and operating system that have a 40% higher consumption .. .
I also tried setting then further OTA but the situation does not change.
Can someone help me?

Have you rooted the phone previously? Rooting causes battery drain issues on the Note 5 which are fixed by installing the latest version of SuperSU.

Hi krazykirk thank you for your interest, I no longer want to root the device as I'd like to sell it. Anyway by the time here I install supersu with twrp o auto-root the battery drain disappears.

L31C432B370 OTA UPDATE Thanks to Prem222

This was posted just now in my thread and is currently downloading an OTA update. I think it deserves its own thread and thanks.
"how to
In Europe, try this :
Open Hicare, update Hicare, agree to terms of system update, download and update to b370 or b 371."
Its a 1.99GB file so presumably complete with data as well

Is your phone a single sim or dual sim? Exact version of firmware?

My phone is twin sim and was C432B160. Can confirm that download complete, reboot and after about 10 seconds of 0% and verify has moved to 62% and verifies again, holds for about 45 seconds and says installing but stays on 62% till it jumps to 98% and then report success. Now rebooted and optimising. More to follow

Confirm success and no data loss. Just going through apps to check. Cannot give enough credit to Prem222 for finding this method.
Dual sim still active

Good! Is the firmware version B370 or B371?

I installed this update without problems, but now bluetooth does not work anymore, I can't even activate it. Does anyone else have this issue?

Its 370

Bluetooth is working.

No updates available.

Some details:
worked for VNS-L31C432B160 > VNS-L31C432B370, (dual sim).
Took a while.
As for 1,5 hour of using everything seems to be working.
Bluetooth - calls and sending attachment ok.
Both sims ok.
Calls ok.
Camera, flash etc ok.
Huawei share works ok.
In the phone manager there is a virus scan ( by Avast).
Thanks goes to SirBeherit from forum.android.com.pl
Looks very fresh

This is not working for VNS - L21C432B336 right?

I have no keyboard (i tried to factory reset but it fail) , what should i do?
Before using this method i installed stock rom so i was unrooted and i had locked bootloader...i can't understand why it happened...
The update size was like 1.25 gb.

I have mm b161 with root and recovery twrp. What should i do to update to nougat 371?

Nope, no updates available (C432, Austria). April fool's?

When I flashed back to 161 from 360, I didn't get the OTA update as well, so I just downloaded the required files and flashed it myself via TWRP (because dload wouldn't accept the files for diff version?). Works well, better than B360.
Here are the versions:
B370 - for VNS-L31C432.
B371 - For VNS-L11C432.
If anyone wants to try flashing themselves, I could link the update and hw_eu files (I also factory reset after install, so all files and apps were gone, though the OTA may possibly not do that, have never tried an OTA).

Link me files please

L31C432...Marshmallow rooted
1.Download Hicare app from Playstore
2.Download B370 trough Hicare
3.Upgraded B370 via Hicare
4,Phone booted to twrp
5.Unpacking B370....
6.Phone booting (new boot image)
7.Optimizing system
8.Phone booted okay...

Anything for VNS-L21?

Same Firmwareupdate since Weeks

Hi,
since Weeks i am having an annoying problem:
the Same update is coming, and i tried everything:
Install the Update approx 20 times
Check in Hicare -no update
Check in Hisuite - NO update
Email Huwai - No answer
Hard Restet (!) - Same
I have read that sometimes a newer update pops up, or with hisuite theres a new update, but always the same.
Any ideas?

I didn´t have the same problem but for me it was that I never got the 9.1 update.
Changing to another operators SIM-card triggered the update, and then after updating to the most recent version I switched back to my default sim.
Maybe it´s the solution to your problem as well, might be worth a shot at least.

This i tried also when the 9.1 update didnt come. Did not work for me. But i will give it again a try

Did not work, also via erecovery (official) , get an error

I had that problem when I did update via moded HiSuite from 9.0.0.286 to 9.1.0.325... I downgraded again to 2.0.0.286 and then I updated first to 9.1.0.311 (no problem), and after that to 9.1.0.328
So try if you want, but I'm not responsible if something goes wrong...
Link for procedure...

Can someone help me, im getting crazy.
I´ve tried it on 3 different pc´s, at home, in my company... Always the same.
Changed hosts file
installed hisuite and copied the modified files
opened ff on my p20 pro, approved .328 update
does not work, error.
Am i doing something wrong still?
I can download the update in ff, is there a risk to install it this way?

Have you changed the DNS in your wifi connection? Check out the box for IPV6, disconnect the internet, connect again and make sure that your mobile and Laptop are connected with the same network, you just need to change the DNS in your host file, nothing more, good luck.

Aaaah, i finally made it, wlan router with the dns settings did the trick, this was not mentioned in the manual i think?
Happy now
Thanks

Software interrupted Note 5 SM-N920A

I am running Android 7.0. I noticed that there has not been a security patch since 2017. I check for software update and there is one available that's almost half of a gig. I go through the steps to update. During restart, the progress indicator stops at 35% and phone starts up with the message that the update failed as it was interrupted. I have tried several times with same result even after factory reset. Also tried in Safe mode. Also connected to PC and SmartSwitch and says software is up to date. Phone works fine but it should be able to take the update. Any help would be appreciated. Considered a root but apparently AT&T version can't be rooted.
