Can't update after taking an early Nougat Beta - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers

When the nougat beta was available via a downloaded .apk, I was able to update to it. Now that the version I'm on is several iterations old, attempting to update the system says 'no updates available', and the samsung members app says my device isn't registered for the beta, and won't let me do anything.
I'm using a MacBook Pro...how can I get the latest stock firmware back?

You're on the latest Nougat build for Verizon. They stopped updates after this build. Sprint and T-Mobile were the only carriers who continued to allow updates to beta testers. Now we just have to wait for Verizon to push the final Nougat build OTA.

If you want to go back to marshmallow you should be able to use smartswitch for Mac. Check for an update on it and it should say an update is available. That will take you to the newest version marshmallow build(not nougat though)

Looking for US Version BTV-W09C1289BXXX Full Rom or Stock Recovery.img

I am unlocked, TWRPed, and rooted but would like to restore stock everything. It appears that restoring stock recovery will be the most difficult as Huawei has not released the full firmware image that includes recovery.img. Can someone with stock recovery extract this and post it?
*Title should say BTW-W09C128BXXX*
I'm looking for the same thing if anyone has any incite as to where to find it or a link to it. I have tried the firmware finder tool posted on XDA and the one in the play store. They both only show update. I'm in need of full install. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!
I am trying to back my stock US version up right now. Currently unlocked and trying to figure out how to back up stock rom and recovery. If anyone has any ideas please let me know.
Have you tried Firmware Finder app?
You can find it in Playstore.
I used this app to upgrade to Android N (international version).

I think you should install the full package update... Try it.. It happened with me and now all 100% perfect
I had this too with my C636 version when trying to swap from standard to developer version. Just selected standard full version and it was fine. Would still like to get on the developer versions if anyone kno9ws how using firmware finder and Hisuit?

How do you know which one is a developer firmware?

There is no such firmware for P10 Plus yet??
Firmware finder, using the proxy DNS and connected by USB to HI Suite. Once you get HI Suite to see the full firmware on your PC, there is an option to switch to 'other firmware' and on that page you can see older versions or the developer version of B151 as well as the B131 and B124 versions if you wanted to go back. However every time I tried to switch to the developer version it fails. But it must be there and available or HI Suite would not see it or allow you to download it. So it wont be long before this is active and hopefully this will allow you to get the intermediate updates as I used to on earlier Huawei models.

[Discussion] OTAs on Rooted Huawei/Honor phones- Confirmed

Saw many post from new users and senior members as well and most of the time there are lot of confusion on the OTA part, especially for the rooted phone. Few says it gets (I am one of them) and few says it doesn’t as rooting capabilities modifies the system boot.img and also we have unlocked bootloader so device wont get the OTAs. I have been using the Huawei/Honor phones for 2 years now and have been getting all the OTAs on rooted phone and confirmed the same many time but still there are lot of confusion and users thinks they wont get OTA on rooted phone.
Just confirming here that you will receive OTAs on rooted phone without any issues. This is 2nd update on my phone since rooted in past 2 months.

Note- I am not using any firmware finder or other things for this as I dont trust on FF as it messed my Honor 5C in February and I given up on it.
Instructions-
If you are rooted but then rolled back to stock recovery, just download the OTA and update.
If you are rooted with TWRP recovery, flash the stock recovery first and then download the OTA to update. (TWRP wont be able to update OTA)

I don't know which ROM to install for my phone, because CSC and Baseband and PDA are different. It cannot be updated by OTA in settings. My android right now is 8.0.

My Phone Cannot fetch new updates

Hello,
I have Samsung Galaxy S10+ unlocked which I purchased in March-2019.
It is not able to update to latest version of software. The last update it got was in April-2019.
After that it does not get any new updates. I downloaded SmartSwitch App, in hopes that it will update the software, but it also says the software update is current.
I contacted Samsung Customer care, they told me Factory Reset the phone. Which i don't want to do.
Is there any other way i Can force my phone to get the latest update?
Here are the screenshots of the phone.

You can use Frija and odin to manually update without root or wipe. You should find the threads located in discussion forum on the S10plus.
Did you ever do a manual software update or have software done at an official samsung authorized store or repair center?

Thank You Darkat. I used your method and was able to update it to the latest version.
I have one question, will it in future receive updates from Samsung or no?
Thanks

I assume that it would, my update came from my carrier, not Samsung. I did the initial jump in December to Android 10, i received Jan update, my Dec Build was the same as what my carrier released.
