I think mine was the Polish version, and the update finally came through last night - through the phones updater.
thanks for the reply! c",)
did you have the EURO (unbranded) version or the PLUS (polish network) version?
I rooted mine, then put on a custom 2.3.6 ROM (Sheep ROM 1.2)
OTA. Unbranded unit
Initially update wouldn't go through so i went ahead and flashed back to stock from rooted status and applied the update and then root it again

I received mine from Handtec on November 30, got the OTA update the next day, and it installed fine. Have rooted since then, without difficulty.
It was in Polish when I started it up, but I have no idea what "Plus" version is.
My update is ready, but Im not updating till ICS, or the 1.5 4g lte working on t-mobile.

I think Plus is the name of the polish carrier these were branded for.
its DEC 5 and still no OTA update for my unbranded polish ver galaxy note from handtec. :-(
just wanna update to 2.3.6 for the battery usage issue with 2.3.5.
quick questions to the GURUS:
* can i just flash the HONG KONG ROM ZSKK1 (2.3.6) on mine?
* do i need ROOT for that?
would really appreciate the hand-holding! ;-)

I used Odin and a copy of the stock ROM to do just that. I was stuck in a mode where kies kept reporting that my phone wasnt supported for upgrades and changing my code to DBT made my phone find tge upgrade, but refuse to install it. I rooted at first and bricked it during a failed upgrade, so I used Odin to drop the HK ROM on it with success.

Yeah Im using the t-mobile hotspot right now, until I can figure something out.
'Edit' thinking of cancelling or lowering the internet package on my phone and just use the hotspot for now.
My hotspot plan is 2gb for $39.99
and my phone data plan is 2gb for $20.00

I got mine from Handtec yesterday (Dec 6th). Polish version unbranded. I was able to update via OTA. The update notification came through as soon as I connected to wifi.
I rooted my N900A with Root de la Vega and running MI1 but do not have the AT&T Software Update (OTA Update) app installed and don't have it backed up in tibu. Is there a way to reinstall the OTA Update? Would like to get the MJ5 since you can keep root. The Software update in device settings does not do anything when I press it. Thanks!
Just found out if I used Root de la Vega and somehow update to MJ5, I will brick my phone. Also, I tried downloading Kies 3 and it says "Your device's current firmware version is not supported to update firmware via Kies." Current firmware version: PDA:MI1 / PHONE:MI1 / CSC:MI1 (ATT)
Is it worth upgrading to MJ5? Any post on the benefits of the MJ5 update? I don't have any audio problems that I can hear.
Yes, I'm waiting as well. Thanks

You have to be on MI9 in order to get the MJ5 OTA update.
I wouldn't upgrade to MJ5 until there is an MJ5 restore oneclick/odin.

I see, so how did people who used the Root de la Vega get MI9? Or is it just me? I don't remember if I deleted all the AT&T without backing up

Before the RDLV thread was locked, it was updated with the MI9 oneclick (that's how I got MI9).

Check this thread out for MI9 odin files. It was originally posted to help people downgrade... but since you are on MI1 you might be able to use it to upgrade.

Thanks but I thought doing this will trigger the KNOX counter? Think it's a little early to trip it when its been only a month since I got this phone :/

I guess your last resort could be to march over to an AT&T store (Device Support Center) and get them to flash MI9 for you.

Do you think I need to unroot my phone before taking it to the AT&T store?
Yes.

I'm 100%, but I think MI9 will unroot you regardless since it has to be flashed.

Do a search for the original torrent file that DesignGears posted that contains everything you will need for updating to MI9 and rooting MI9.(it's on the internet trust me). My server is still seeding MI9 and it won't be stopping anytime soon!
I don't recommend going up to MJ5 just yet because there's still a lot of issues with it when it comes to receiving calls and there is currently no solid way to ODIN it over again is you muck something up.
I have AT&T and just wanted to make sure, the newest firmware that came out I am able to use towelroot again right?
So if I wanted to update to the new firmware with the fingerprint scanner improvements etc
I would have to unroot my phone, try to do the OTA? Is there any other way I can do this? I remember I renamed some files to try and stop updates but don't remember exactly where.
Is there an alternative way of doing it? can someone explain the steps I need to do? and what if I do a nandroid backup through safestrap, can I use this same back up with the new firmware or would I have to start over from scratch?
I can't live without root, I like using on screen buttons on my S5
What firmware version are you currently on? Both the original ANCE and the AND3 OTA can be rooted. Haven't seen anything yet about something newer than AND3.

Build number KOT49H. G900AUC2AND3
so it's safe to update with the newer firmware from AT&T?

You already have the newest firmware available from AT&T and yes you can root that. If you start getting update notifications then I would hold off on those until someone can verify if root is achievable. So far AT&T has pushed out an update newer than what you already have.
If they have pushed out a newer update what's the numbers on it. I haven't been on xda since rooting my S5 and was wondering if we can safely update and keep root.

AT&T hasn't released it yet
Hello there was a new firmware update posted on Sam Mobile for the SM-9208 Taiwan today (N9208ZZT2AOK2). Has anyone updated to it yet? If so do you notice any difference and if are you still rooted.
Yeah, just noticed this update on Samobile but have not flashed yet. It is new firmware dated at 09/11. Wonder what are the changes.......

Just got the update pushed to me, didn't even look what was new, sorry.
are any of you who took the new SM-N9208 update rooted? or were you able to root after the update? thanks for taking time to respond to my question.

If you're rooted it won't update OTA. I used ODIN to upgrade to K2 and I've experienced no problems.

Agreed. That's the plan. I meant to ask if you're able to re-root after taking the update, using one of the root kernels. (Was posting my question in a hurry as I was going through TSA Checkpoint).

Just finished flashing and restoring. So far so good. Anyone have a changelog for this update?
I'm currently on PD6. Can I flash this on top of that via odin or are there incremental updates I need to do prior to this? Thanks for the guidance!

I flashed PF1 over PD6 on my G920AZ. Should be fine.
Question about updating
Hi, first post on xda.
My phone is an AT&T version but I live in AU, and I want to update it to marshmallow from what it is currently on (5.1.1), and it won't update since I'm not in the U.S.
It's currently on AUCU3BO12.
Can I flash this PG1 without upgrading to anything else first? Can it go from 5.1.1 to 6.0.1 directly from BO12? (According to AT&T's website, BO12 is a bit down the line in terms of updates, there have been a number since).
Edit: Also, which .tar file do I use out of the 4?
Thanks!
Does anyone know the answer to the above?
Finally unbricked my G920 Samsung Galaxy S6 with this
Thank you so much for this. I bricked my phone by stupidly flashing a 5.1 firmware and i've been scrambling to fix it for about a week now. And I couldn't find these files anywhere. Thank you so much

So your phone was on 5.1 and you went straight to 6.0.1 with this? No intermediate updates?

Flashed on mine (BOI2, 5.1.1) and it's stuck in the samsung galaxy s6 powered by android screen.
Already restarted to recovery and wiped cache partition and factory reset from there. Still stuck in boot screen...
Any help?
EDIT: Flashed all 4 files this time and it worked. Only flashed the AP file the first time (which people all over the internet say you only need to do) but I had to flash all 4 and now it works. Thank you!

You just need to load all 4 files up in Odin (AP, BL etc.) and click start.
Make sure your phone is in download mode.
