Hey everyone. I just got an OTA update for my Note 8.0 LTE (AT&T). It's a small update (16.3MB). The new firmware build is I467UCAMF2. This is probably just a bugfix update but OTAs are almost always a good thing.

Yeah got it this morning... was hoping it would fix the screen from becoming unresponsive. Did not fix it

OK so allow me to translate that into English:
"Because we're A, T and f***ing T, we decided to make Samsung replace Google's normal Android setup app with our own called AT&T Ready2Go. The problem is, again because we're A, T and f***ing T, our app sucks. If you have two-step verification enabled on your Google account, you won't be able to sign into your Google account during setup with AT&T Ready2Go. I guess we underestimated how many people actually have it turned on, so oops! Our bad. Here, it's enabled. Happy now?"
I manually updated a couple of hours ago. After playing around with the Note 8 with the update for about an hour I no longer experience the screen stutter/freeze/pause/etc. issue. I hope this in fact is fixed, but so far so good.

I'm still getting the unresponsive screen issue post-update. I've thought about doing a reset, but haven't actually done it yet.
Would be nice if someone had the OTA zip, as it is possible a root could be made from it if the right images are included.

A little of both. The bootloader is encrypted and locked on the AT&T model, but also, very few of us on XDA actually have one. Let's be real. People around here thumb their noses at tablets with an LTE connection a lot of times. They just have no hipster cred in the Android geek community. The in crowd just buys a WiFi-only tablet and tethers it to their phone. It's the geekier thing to do, even if it's a pain in the @$$. You can talk about why LTE tablets are useful until you're blue in the face but it falls on deaf ears more often than not.
Unfortunately, I'm not very optimistic that we'll ever see root unless there comes a time where the WiFi-only root method works on the AT&T model.

Is it encrypted? I got this tablet 2nd hand and I may never even put service on it. If I can't root it, I'll probably trade it for a wifi version. I know AT&T and Verizon pushed an OTA to the S4's that prevented root. Luckily I was rooted/rom'ed prior to that. My GN8 doesn't have the latest OTA. I'm still hopeful for root and unlock/simunlock so I can grab a pre-paid card for this tab.

First, plug phone into computer, and install updater software from the phone that is on the device in 'Installer Mode'. Take the download on the PC, then follow directions below, and you can still have root after.

Hi again,
I installed the upgrade assistant in installer mode but for some reason it is not picking up the new NE9 update on my computer. See attached print screen. Very strange.. It sees the update on my phone to download though.:cyclops: Do you know why this is and how I can get it to see the update on the upgrade assistant as you mentioned?
Kind Regards
Can you explain why you want the update so bad? You do realize that rooting and accepting official otas is completely contradictory, correct? OTAs are generally what fix things like what towelroot exploits. If you accept official OTA, you will likely lose root.
But can't I just re root after the ota? I guess the reason I want the Ota because I heard of camera enhancements and stability fixes

No. OTA have patches for known security flaws as well. The flaw that towelroot relies on is closed after the new OTA. Meaning, no more root.
edit: in this case I believe folks have figured out a work around for keeping root with the update. In general though, if you value root and what it provides you do not accept official releases.

@ks3rv3rg I believe the links mentioned above provide a workaround for the Root to be kept after updating.

Thank you both for your perspectives.. Plus, I can always just wait for a ROM that currently has the update installed.

According to a Mod on Z-Community there should be an update being pushed out shortly. If anyone gets the update can provide the change log that would be appreciated. And if you do the update please let us know if the UI has changed. Still waiting on my axon 7, hopefully it ships tomorrow.
We need someone to capture this update before it's installed.
Always thank those who are helpful...and just ignore those who aren't.

It should be possible to patch most everything -- however, if any of the partition hashes don't match, those partitions couldn't be patched. That would make minemeat out of the partition if you forced it, since they are updating blocks, and not direct files.

No, the bootloader unlocking process changes more than just the recovery. It changes boot, system, and fastboot as well. So even if you reflash a stock recovery, if the OTA tries to patch any of those other partitions, it'll fail. This is why people have been clamouring ZTE to post full system images, so people who unlocked their BL can roll back to full stock in order to get OTAs.
Plus, we don't know if ZTE will use the IMEIs of people who officially submitted a bootloader unlock as exceptions to the OTA rollout.

They have to be using a list like that. Otherwise they wouldn't be able to roll out the bootloader unlock OTA to the right phones.
Which of course, is still silly -- they should have used the method others use where it's just baked into the OS and you have to request the appropriate code to provide during unlock. Then everyone would be on the same software load.
I am on my new stock phone I just picked up from Best Buy yesterday. I check the updates screen and it shows MiFavor 4.0 and my current version of B20. I haven't hit next yet but how would I capture the OTA?

I guess by soon they didn't mean within a few days...Usually when companies say soon it's within 24 hrs.
According to the official forums, the MR2 update has been pushed back to next week.

Due to a few last minute software optimizations, the update will be pushed until mid to late next week.

I'm still on stock. How would I go about capturing the OTA when it's released next week?
Also, it looks like the bootloader unlock request form on the ZTE site is no longer available, but instead says: "The form AXON 7/Pro Bootloader Unlock Request is no longer accepting responses. Try contacting the owner of the form if you think this is a mistake."
That could mean something significant (free bootloader unlocks for everyone with no voiding of warranty!) or it could mean that they borked something on the backend (I think it was a Google form, so any number of things could have changed that caused the form to disappear).

If you are running and adb logcat on your computer (or your phone) when you check for and/or download the OTA, the full link for the OTA should be in there somewhere. Or, to just save the file, after you download it but before you apply it, you can copy it off of the internal sd card partition. Getting the download location is better though, then people can download it directly for themselves.

This is Coming from a ZTE-Employee which many of us know him from ZTE-Community
sshasan Employee 13 minutes ago
ZTE has not changed their opinion on unlocking the bootloader. The bootloader will still be unlockable.
I have temporarily stopped the form from accepting new requests for good reason.
1.) The process for unlocking the bootloader will be changing if all goes well with testing. (This includes stock image)
2.) There is a software update coming next week - Since stock images have not yet been released, instead of adding more customers to the mix of those who will not be able to update, I've decided to not let this happen.

It appears to be a boot.img update. Flashfire rejected it as a safe OTA and I proceeded to freeze System Updates with Titanium Backup to eliminate future notifications. A bootloader update for sure.
Hopefully someone can tell if it's locking the bootloader down to prevent downgrading or the bootloader unlock method. Is there a way to freeze the update prompts if I'm not rooted yet? Just got the phone and haven't had a chance to unlock and root this bad boy.

buy package disabler. it is well worth the $1 price tag
Use Debloater, then freeze SDM.apk.

No, it does not break Foxfi.

I'm relatively new here, with regard to uploads. I am on a vzw Note 4, running Jasminerom 7.0, with an unlocked bootloader. I don't even have an SDM, as it wasn't present on the ROM, however I found a post for shutting off Samsung updates that required shutting off two system update modules, and one or two other software and security modules. I'm beginning to think Samsung is in collusion with the carriers to make our phones obsolete, and prevent further mods. If you let me know how and where to upload to you, I can send you the file, if you still want it.

I plan on building AOSP for this, but I would REALLY prefer to match the exact version.
And I can't just run the update on my tablet, it's rooted and unlocked and I don't think I know the procedure to relock it.
Never mind, it said 7.0.0-r1.

Just an FYI you don't need to relock your tablet to update. Just follow this guide :

Yeah, same goes for the AT&T version (v520), no root, no twrp, not even barely any discussions.. Smh, if AT&T didn't give it to me for free i'd probably have just gotten a Nexus lol.. At least you can have fun with those..

I am pretty sure AT&T just released the Android 7 update. Mine is still downloading so i am not really sure if it is indeed Android 7 but it's a 1.2GB update. I was going to post a new thread to let everyone know who has the AT&T version but i can't as i am a new user
Edit- Yup. Mine is now running Android 7.0 with a December 1st security patch

Hmm, weird cuz mine keeps saying "your device is up to date" and it was last updated on January 10th.. But I'm still on 6.0.1..
EDIT: Also wanna add, I downloaded LG Bridge via a recommendation from another site that stated that was the only way the new update would be accepted, and that didn't work either.. When i click "Software Update" it says, "Cannot check the software version, Try again.", so I guess I'm s.o.l. for now..
I deactivated from AT&T when I switched to Verizon last month, but I still use it on WiFi and it works fine so I'm not sure why it's not working..

That is really strange. My guess would be is it hasn't been pushed out to every device yet. I happen to have checked for updates on the day AT&T pushed it out. Their website wasn't even updated yet when i got it. I wouldn't think deactivating it would cause it to lose the ability to update but i am kind of new to android so i am not 100% sure. I would just keep checking for updates or maybe contact AT&T and see if they could give you an answer. They do have a section in the Device Support to display information about software updates. I tried attaching a link to it but i can't as i have less than 10 posts. You can search on google AT&T software updates and it should be the top link. You'll then enter your device and scroll down to software updates. They do have a Troubleshoot and Resolve software updates page you could check out
Sweet. My fido v522 just completed its Nougat update. No more sluggish keyboard......for now. Lol

Thanks, it actually worked. The only difficulty I had was locating the SD card number. In the video the dude first says type sm lists-disk, however, when you actually look at the video later, he typed sm list-disks. That made all the difference.

Your Welcome ^_^
I notice Wi-Fi issues on my Fido V522 after the nougat update. It would get horrible wifi speeds with a AC 4X4 (1900) network and frequent network drops compared to Marshmallow.
