I know this my come as a stupid question but do the RETAIL and the DEVELOPER version of the Verizon Note 4 have the same mode numbers and baseband update numbers? i just got this phone 2 days ago and i desperatly want to root it because the battery life is AWFULLLLLLLL for my usages. I'm just not sure if this is the developer version or retail.
My baseband update file name is: N910VVRU1ANJ5
I show a couple of roms on the forum i would to download but i want to make sure i wont brick my new phone.

They have different model numbers. Where did you buy the phone. If you didn't buy it directly from Samsung (not Verizon) or from someone selling it as a Developer Edition then it is a Retail model. If you received the update you mention and are running NJ5 then you have a retail model. The Developer Edition does not receive updates OTA from Verizion or Samsung. The base for the Developer Edition is NI1

Hi this is my first post here I'm trying to find the right firmware to unbrand my phone. I'm in London and I bought an unlocked AT&T phone a guy from Gumtree.
1. After connecting my Gear VR it says that software update is needed
2. Then it checks with AT&T for software update but it says it already the latest software. Is it because I'm in Europe it doesn't allow me to see the update?
3. Now it says to wait 24 hours before next check(ridiculous! What kind of rubbish servers they have???)
How to:
Remove branding and get pure Samsung soft without this AT&T rubbish overlay
What processor is in this phone? I think it's Snapdragon but still I'm not sure and I don't want to brick this phone
More about the phone:
Model: SM-N910A
Android: 4.4.4
Baseband: N910AUCU1ANIE
Device name: My little pony
Kernel version: 3.10.0-2771708 [email protected] #1
Build number: KTU84P
Security enhancement(I guess something to block you from unblocking): SEPF_SAMSUNG-SM-N910A_4.4.4_A019
MOD EDIT: Please read forum rules. There is no selling/trading/buying on XDA. Use swappa.com
Can't unbrand because the att note 4 is boot loader locked and unrootable at this time, but you can flash the stock update manually through Odin.

Debloater, Lets remove all that Bloatware..
It didn't work. After changing software to the version from the post it gear vr again says it needs an update and then AT&T again says it up to date. So ****ing frustrating! This is my first experience with AT&T company and I can only say it's ****.

No button to update. After choosing firmware upgrade and initialization

I couldn't find that file. Where have you seen it? I ordered another Galaxy Note 4. Lol first I bought was counterfeit and still waiting for a refund, second AT&T being useless ATM (I only care about gear VR), third from a company on amazon with 1 review, hopefully this time I'll be lucky.
Just bought an at&t 64gb note 5 here in the UK, lovely phone, just reading that at&t won't be updating to Android 7, but the Asian Australian etc versions will be getting it early in the new year. Have I got this all wrong or can I flash another rom...cheers

Sadly, No
AT&T use locked bootloader which means you can only flash official AT&T signed firmware
Also there's currently no way to flash custom ROM on the AT&T Note 5 so you (we) are at the mercy of AT&T
The only hope is one of the senior XDA developers finds a way to unlock the bootloader then we will be able to flash custom ROMs and get Nougat 7.x that way
Thanks for the reply, I'm happy to wait, I know the Asian versions of the note 5 are getting the android 7 nougat update this December, my question is Will the at&t ever get the update
Hello!
I am a developer in New Zealand with a USA AT&T Samsung Note 4 sent to me by Oculus in 2014.
Sorry for being a noob with this stuff!
The phone has been unlocked to work on the New Zealand Vodafone network - for this reason (from what I understand) the AT&T Android updates do not work "Your device is up to date!".
A 360 VR video plugin I need to use requires Android 5.1+ but my phone is 4.4.4.
Is there a simple guide somewhere that I can follow to update my AT&T Note 4?
I do not care if it wipes any AT&T stuff - or are the different provider's versions of this phone actually different hardware-wise?
I've tried searching but lacking some of the terminology needed to get it done. It all seems needlessly complex just to update the OS...
I contacted Oculus support who forwarded me to Samsung support who told me to try "Smart Switch" PC software, which said my phone was up to date. Contacted them again and they told me to take the phone to a Samsung service center in Albany 30 minutes drive away. I'll try this if I have to.
Thanks!

Edit: My model number is SM-N910A

Thanks @norbarb.
Which files would I need though?
My AT&T Note 4 model number is SM-N910A.
Android version 4.4.4
Build number KTU84P.N910AUCU1BNK3.
I am not sure what the "S2EPK4 to S2EPK5" etc numbers are.

You need odin to EPH5 then use file by file to ADB sideload all the way to EQD1. Numbers are last 4 numbers of build
So please forgive me if this has been answered before, but I have not been able to zero in on an answer to my problem by searching the forums.
I recently bought an international SM-N975F/DS that I bought through a reseller in Canada. The home region is Vietnam. I am using SIMs from Telus and Roger's. This is my first international version of a phone that I have owned.
I would like to upgrade to the latest firmware but the phone is telling me that I am up to date. I'm happy to wait for the the regional update, but i am not sure it will be triggered while I use the phone in Canada.
I am open to flashing another version of the firmware in order to get the update, but I am confused as to what version to use. Since the dual sim version of the phone was never released in Canada, I'm not sure what version of the firmware I should download.
Also, if I am able to switch the region to one where Samsung Pay will work in Canada, I would love to do that. I'm not sure which country version will work here.
And my final question.... if I do flash a different region will it update manually or will I have to download and flash each new software update and security patch?
Thanks for any help you can offer.
I believe you need to figure out which sm-n975F receives the fastest updates and then flash to that specific region .
I'm sure it's been asked already but I can't find any threads on it.
Seems like every carrier is getting Android 12 on the S20 line EXCEPT T-mobile.
I have an s20+ that is still under contract and carrier locked.
Is there any way to use the VZW firmware on it? Co-worker has same phone on VZW and has same FW version base (G986USQS2).
His full version is G986USQS2EVA4 which is android 12. My current firmware is G986USQS2DUJ7 which is obviously android 11.
Can I download and flash the files from VZW from samfw.com? Would I need to change CSC?
Or could I just pop in a VZW Sim (even though it's locked to TMO) and it would just download the FW?
Thanks for any help.. It's REALLY frustrating that even Xfinity and comcast are getting it already but not Tmobile............
There is a REASON I bought a flagship from a major carrier.. Updates... But seems like tmobile is in last place to get it figured out.
