Good night guys,
I just bought a S10+ unlocked but originally from AT&T the problem is that the phone is out of the Network and I can't get the FOTA updates (It has 1 Feb. Security patch) :crying:.
And I want to know another option to update the phone to the latest security patch.
Any help is really appreciated,
Thanks in advance.
Here you go.

Just download it,unzip it run the exe type in the phone model and the ATT and click downloaded.
If you want to receive OTA updates on your phone you either need to flash the carrier free U1 firmware (in which case you will receive OTA updates from Samsung) or flash firmware for your carrier. AT&T doesn't send updates to phones when there is AT&T firmware but no AT&T SIM.
You could also manually flash updates that you download from Frija but if you don't have AT&T service you should get rid of their firmware. It's designed to make you regret switching from AT&T and can cause an assortment of problems when used with a different carrier's SIM card.

Frija is crap. It has NEVER found firmware for me.
Go to updato.com or Sammobile and download the G975U1 firmware.(https://www.sammobile.com/samsung/g...SM-G975U1/ATT/download/G975U1UES2BSI4/291515/) (It's the unlocked, bloat free firmware. You'll lose text/call over wifi) Flash it with the newest modded Odin (https://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=4446947&d=1521037501) and flash away. You'll always stay up to date then

They're not ROMs. They're stock firmwares.
Do you want carrier bloat? Download G975U firmware. You won't find att firmware but it's all inclusive. Download VZW firmware and it'll instal carrier bloat based on installed firmware.
If you want no bloat, go with G975U1 firmware. XAA is true carrier free (but on the U1 it doesn't matter which code you use)

Probably not if you have AT&T firmware. Smart Switch downloads firmware from Samsung's servers but AT&T is the only carrier who does not allow it's firmware on Samsung servers. AT&T updates are only stored on AT&T's own servers.

If you mix and match firmware like you suggest then you need to manually flash all future updates because you will not receive any OTA updates ever. That's fine if you like flashing firmware but isn't a good idea if you don't.
Not sure who told you that but I've been bouncing between various firmwares and models through the years and never had to continually manually flash.
The only way that would happen to you is if you dirty flash one over another without factory resetting. Which everyone knows you shouldn't be doing for reasons like that.

If you flash a build number different from what is officially offered by your carrier or via U1 then you stop getting OTA updates because you are running an unnoficial build that the OTA server doesn't recognize . The US carriers are often on slightly different build numbers and the U1 build numbers are rarely the same as the carrier builds. If you mix and match S10+ firmware odds are you won't get automatic OTA updates again until you flash complete firmware that matches the exact build offered by your carrier or U1.
That's common knowledge and has been discussed thoroughly in the firmware threads and also on the Frija thread.

Then why has every phone I've had (S6, S7E+, s8, s8+, s9+, S10+) received ota updates if I flash U1 firmware on them? It would even receive them fine going from U1 to U...
I'll specify cause maybe you're confused. If I'd flash over my current fw without wiping data and using the Home CSC I wouldn't get OTAs. But that's just dumb to do...
If I flash with Odin, non-home CSC then wipe data/factory reset on recovery it would.
Yet, you're saying it shouldn't have?

Thanks helped a lot.
1. Use Updato.com, MUCH faster
2. Good luck finding att fw anywhere unless someone has posted it here like in the link.
3. I'd just run the unlocked XAA FW if I were you. If you're not in att why run their fw with all their bloat?

All of the US models (U &U1) are still stuck on July.... No August updates yet. You really are on the most current version for U1.
I suspect the carriers will push out the August patch in the next few weeks (and most likely plugging the recently published root exploit and updating the bootloader), with the U1 following a few weeks after that, as that's how it's gone so far.
It has now AQH3.
The most recent is August 30
What is the difference between U and U1?
It's QH3.
Updato.com is where I always search for firmware. They're pretty up to date and have good download times.

U are the carrier version models
U1 are the unlocked models.
You can flash U1 fw with Odin and have smoother, no bloat firmware but you lose volte and wifi calling.
I have U1 and have VOLTE on Verizon. Just have to enable it on your account online... Then the option shows up in settings after a reboot.
Sent from my SM-G950U1 using XDA-Developers Legacy app
Please Reply!
And since my dumbass deleted the account I used BEFORE resetting my U1 im trying to figure out how to get past FRP since google wouldnt help! And hoping i can still root and try other roms but i seriously just want to get back to samsung stock s8 U1 firmware and not brick it
Can anyone point me to a relevant thread or share your experience, pm me if need be, i understand the stigma of this situation.
Hello all,
My problem is as follows:
I have the SM-G950U USA Galaxy s8, Unbranded and unlocked. I flashed the Samsung UI beta firmware back in January which put me on T-Mobile firmware. I have been trying to flash back to the unbranded unlocked firmware, but have not found it available anywhere online.
I would like to revert back to my original unbranded firmware because now I do not receive any software updates, as when I go to software update in settings I get the message, "Your current software version is not supported. Visit a service center." I therefore can only update by flashing releases through Odin. I flashed the March security patch update from Tmobile recently, so that is what I am currently running.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Just check the bootloader version and flash U1 fw in odin. You may need patched odin. Updato or samfirm should be able to get the u1 fw no issue.

So I flashed XAA firmware off of Sam mobile. The files did not have the "userdata" file - after flashing my phone has Sprint userdata and has two Sprint system applications. Is there anyway to get rid of Sprint entirely and completely revert to unbranded? Flashing the G950U1 XAA got me back to receiving automatic updates, but has not gotten rid of the phone being branded...

You can't get to One UI 2 beta on the AT&T firmware because that's Android 10 beta and AT&T didn't opt into the Samsung beta program. You'll have to wait until the final OTA update release OR flash the unlocked U1 firmware or the T-mobile firmware. I think you can it that way.

Your best bet is www.Sammoble.com. It is a slow download unless you have paid account, but it works.
I have the ATT version, but I cannot receive updates via FOTA, because I live abroad and I am not connected to the ATT network, some way or way to receive updates without having to use ODIN.
The last question.
I can Flash U1 having the N975U ATT Version, is there any risk to do this?

I need the BSI6 AT&T firmware ODIN file, but it doesn't seem to exist. Not even on Samsung's firmware site.
The beta can be flashed on the U1 ATT BSI4 version correct?

Just the one that comes with the rom you download. It will set up right by your sim card.
The latest rom I have is BSIV before I started receiving Beta FOTA's which are now up to ZSK9. I used the noname rom and it setup for me as VZW/VZW/VZW. Even if it sets up as XXX/XXX/ATT it will work great.
Beta 4 G975USQU2ZSK9 came out today. Its on firmware.science Login in first.

So have to root/unlock flash custom recovery first? If so I haven't found instructions for the US AT&T model.
Any advice much appreciated.
Tried two firmwares with odin 3.13.1, 3.13.3, 3.14.1 patched
G975USQS3CTB6_G975UOYN3CTB6_TMB
G975USQU1ASBA_G975UOYN1ASBA_USC
Always either SH256 SW and/or SW REV CHECK FAIL.
Tried another couple firmwares with odin 3.13.1, 3.13.3, 3.14.1 patched....
G975USQS3CTB6_G975UOYN3CTB6_TMB
still Always either SH256 SW and/or SW REV CHECK FAIL.
also always abl.elf, xbl.elf fail in Odin.
Should I use mount the Userdata? I think i've tried both ways and they fail. Ugh, losing track of what I've tried now.
I did this a year ago when I first got my S10+ Verizon and flashed the unlocked rom on it.
I believe that there's a modded version of oden here. Find it and download the latest original unlocked firmwear and you should be good.
No root and nothing

Downloaded the most recent through Frija for CSC "USC" and "TMO"
Tried flashing with Odin modded and regular. abd 3.14.4 now.
Still keep getting SW REV CHECK FAIL " [ab1]Fuzed 4 > Binary 3"
Also, the I've noticed sometimes HOME CSC is used or included when other times regular CSC is.
USERDATA is sometimes not used, what's up with that?
Thanks again for any more leads. I keep flashing and wishing lol

Both from Frija
Is that 1 in the middle correct?
Which version number of Odin is for S10+ Android 10 i guess would help narrow down my problem too?
Besides the firnware Odin has to match too right? Or can you just use the most recent version for any earlier firmwares too?
Added screenshots from Phone Info SAM
It comes down to confirming exactly which firmware is needed, version of Odin (modded or not), which CSC to put in(CSC or HOME) and is USERDATA necessary too?
Thanks again all!!!

Most of your questions can be answered here. https://forum.xda-developers.com/s10-plus/how-to/sm-g975u-firmware-downloads-tmo-spr-att-t3908657
You can flash any Rom (V, ATT, or anty other American Rom) you want as long as you don't go backwards on your bootloader version. The version # is the 5th from the last digit on your baseband #. I flashed a U1 rom on Verizon bought S10+ and now get updates straight from Samsung with no vendor apps at all.
