I'm running a Straight Talk AT&T sim on a AT&T Galaxy S4. There is a 4.3 Update coming out this month (Oct/13) and I want it. It is possible to update this somehow? Is so, How?? I tried OTA and it says "Update interrupted" and also KIES and says not compatible.

I have a unlocked Verizon Galaxy Note 3, I have t-mobile cellular service, how would I get the update? My phone is not rooted, when I try to see if there are any updates, it keeps saying its not able to update.
I currently have an unlocked Galaxy S5,g900v (b), looking to update to lollipop. I use a tmobile sim so I will not be getting any OTA's from verizon. How can i update to lollipop without installing custom rom, and maybe with a tmobile instead of verizon pre loaded apps/settings.
Thank you.
I have an unlocked AT&T_ S5 with a T-Mobile SIM card. I want to update to lollipop and my phone won't update automatically through my settings so I suppose I gotta d/l and update but which update do i d/l? AT&T or T-Mobile?
The at&t s5 (SM-G900A) variant has locked bootloaders, meaning you can't flash any other ROM's besides the stock att rom, unlike the rest of the T-Mobile or other s5 variant communities do. At&t hasn't released the lollipop update yet, and they released an OTA update, still KitKat, recently. So head on over to the att section of the forum and you will see there is a safe strap method available, but I haven't personally tried it.
I have a AT&T Samsung Galaxy S4 (Unlocked) and I am currently using it on Cricket wireless. The phone is currently running on Android 4.4.3 and I would like to update the same to Lollipop. Samsung Galaxy S4 got Lollipop rolled out by AT&T recently but I was not able to get the same since I switched carriers.
Now what is the best way to update the phone. If possible I don't want to root the phone. I went to best buy local store but they were not able to do the same as they said the phone is unlocked. Please let me know how I can update my phone to the latest version. It will be really helpful if someone can point me in the right direction.
Thanks all in advance for the help.
Will putting a AT&T sim in my phone help with the OTA? In the sense if I get an AT&T sim card from someone or purchase one and put it in to my phone will that help with the OTA? I am not sure if this phone was unlocked by AT&T.
I was able to successfully install the updates on my phone. I was able to downgrade my phone by installing stock 4.4.2 using ODIN and then was able to upgrade my device to 4.4.4 first and then update to 5.0.1 via OTA. It was an easy process and the instructions in the ODIN thread was really helpful.
Similar situation
I too have an unlocked SGH-I337 that is unlocked from AT&T and I'm using it on T-Mobile. How did you perform the Lollipop update without an AT&T SIM? I took mine to the Samsung experience at Best Buy and they weren't able to do it via Kies and they believe it's because it's unlocked. Nothing else has been done to it, just the AT&T unlock so that I could switch carriers.
Thanks in advance,
Charlotte
I recently bought my s7 edge directly from the samsung website at&t version and got it unlocked to be used on the tmobile network. I tried updating the phone to nougat but at&t software update would say that I am on the latest software which was 6.0.1. I even used a working at&t sim card because I thought maybe you need to be on their network but still it gave me the same thing. Finally I just used odin to update to nougat but I wanted to know if anyone knows why I was not able to update ota?

You are on the international version if you bought it directly from Samsung. They haven't released the international N for the S7 Edge. I know this is frustrating but you aren't the only one. If you can put up with ATTs bloat then go flash the Odin files, they have been released for ATT.
