Will I receive an OTA lollipop upgrade? - Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have a SM-N910F, bought it from Clove back in November just after my old nexus 5 got lolipop, and not received an OTA lollipop upgrade yet. It's a european version as far as I know.
I don't want to get into flashing etc. Should I expect to get an OTA upgrade at any time? Or will I be stuck on KK until I bite the bullet and flash it?

You'll receive it. Not yet released for your particular build.

Not receiving OTA's

Hi there
I've had my nexus 6p pretty much from launch here in the uk.
I have never received a OTA to the point i flashed MDB08L around a few week back. Did me flashing MDB08L break my OTA? I'm still on stock everything and flash the stock image from the google site. Or am i in the same boat as everyone else?
Thanks.
If you flashed the full OEM and have not rooted then you should get OTA's. They do get rolled out over time, not everyone gets them at exactly the same time. No idea if M (November patch) should be with everyone yet though.
Flashing the factory image did not hamper your ability to get OTA updates.
Rooting does NOT impact receiving OTA updates, it only prevents them from installing (until you restore the system /boot/recovery partitions).
It is believed that only phones in Korea will receive MDB08M. Everyone else is still on L.

Unsure about updates.

Hey guys i have question. I am currently on 24.11.18.lux.reteu.reteu.en.En reteu. I flashed this with a link that was posted on here before the update for 6.0 came to my country. The update that came OTA was 24.41.33 (with the januari patch). I never received this and am wondering if i will still get updates in the future or if I have to keep doing this myself. I am not rooted or anything. I just updated with the link that was posted here. http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x-play/help/marshmallow-ota-uk-t3277756/post64971862#post64971862
So basically:
I flashed from 5.1.1 to 6.0 myself with link posted here through recovery mode.
I now have 24.11.18. (december patch)
Others in my country that just waited have 24.41.33. (januari patch)
What do I do now in order to get updates? Wait and it will come? Or do i have to keep updating myself?
Hope everything is clear. :good: Thanks in advance.

The best to do is flash the 5.1.1 factory image for your model and location. And then updating through the normal way. Not manually
Thanks. I'm not sure how to go about doing that. So updates wont come to my phone anymore OTA? I've read on here that the 6.0.1 update should arrive soon. I'm new to all this and don't want to risk breaking my phone. Maybe it's better to wait? I'm from the Netherlands too btw.

You should have the january security patch, if you dont and dont have an update you need to flash the factory image. If you don't want to brick your phone you shouldnt flash updates manually in the first place.
You can also try this: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24421527759884307 which is the flashable zip for the dutch 6.0 firmware (but you need twrp and unlocked bootloader for that.
But you probably need to download and flash this: https://www.google.com/url?q=https:...sntz=1&usg=AFQjCNGTQx60cH6emtbDNwtOZh-3m7Mdww
And follow this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/2015-moto-g/general/guide-fastboot-flashing-factory-t3187750
(doesn't need an unlocked bootoader
Thanks. I think I'll just wait until 6.0.1 arrives here in NL and see if it let's me update too before i try and do all this.

Looking for comprehensive stock firmware list for S7Edge

Hey all. I am in the US but bought international S7Edge when it came out. I dont know what firmware it had I think it was some italian one maybe. Then i rooted and started using custom roms. Then when nougat officially came out for S7Edge i un-rooted and went back to 100% stock using i think Vodafone 7.0 firmware. I think because i rooted i have a negative test response from Knox which i think stops me from getting OTA updates. It shows in software info that my OS version has security patch only from January 2017 so I am clearly not on latest firmware even though OTA says I am on latest.
Is there a site with a database of all firmwares out for the S7Edge international variant So i can find the latest and flash it to my phone since OTA wont get the latest.
samsmobile has the latest.
Yoiu still have an issue with your kernal as phone still thinks you have custom rom. Tripped knox on stock firmware will not stop OTA from downloading.

Just flashed the Nougat update. Will I need to install EVERY update to get to latest?

I just bought an unlocked AT&T Galaxy S7 to use on another carrier. Because I'm not on AT&T, I don't get OTA updates. I sideloaded the QA6 update which brought the device up to Android 7.0. However, I noticed there are like 8 OTA updates that at&t pushed out. I would like to be able to get onto the latest update which was released a couple weeks back, but the idea of sideloading that many updates is discouraging. Are there some updates I can skip? Thank you.

Generally when you root your phone you trip your Knox. There is no fix for a tripped Knox. This is why you will not get OTA updates anymore..
If you want updates you can check on sammobile or updato and flash via Odin. Another way would be to use smartswich to check for updates. Also have a look at this as another means to update

Are you on BTU? This firmware for September has not released yet. DBT may your best chance to get the I5 update.
