Hey all. This is my situation. I have a GT-5110N wifi only tablet that I purchased 2 years ago in Canada. The motherboard recently crashed and the repair place put in a SIM enabled motherboard Model SGH-I467 with Android Jelly bean 4.1.2 I wan't to upgrade to 4.4.2 as I had with my previous motherboard. With extensive searching I found out that this is an AT&T tablet. I try to use the OTA update on the tablet but it says I have the latest version. The AT&T website says there was a OTA update to 4.4.2 in October 2014. I've called both AT&T and Samsung for help. No dice. What can I do?? I checked on sammobile and they only have the 4.1.2 version. However, the SGH-I467M through Telus contains 4.4.2 Can I download that?? I'm new to rooting etc. Do I need to unlock device?? Please help.
Thanks
Unfortunately, there is no firmware available for the sgh-i467 4.4.2
I recently got my 4.4.2 rom rooted and extracted the rom components - but I am trying to find someone who knows what to do with all the stuff to create an odin flashable rom.... but we are not there yet... hoping someone can help out.
If you keep watching here on the forums, it may happen at some point.

Weird as the AT&T website says there is.
I can't post the link yet but its there. I'll cut and paste

If customers download the software update over the live mobile broadband network, the update does count against the customers data plan.
How to verify the update
From the home screen, tap Settings > About device.

Also, the same model but Canadian version has the update SGH-I467M
Yes... there is a firmware available via ota... fota is firmware over the air update...
The only way to get it is to be on att cellular network. It is not available to download any other way as far as I know. If you find a way to do so, please report back to us where to get it.
Also, the i467M is the Canadian model and it has different firmware... it is not the same as i467.

oh ok. Now I understand. Thanks man. I tried to get AT&T to help me out. If I had a US IP address, would the wifi update work?? Or am I required to have an AT&T sim card installed?? I guess you kinda stated that already.
I had to have an active att sim card to get it to work on my device... wouldn't work any other way for me.
Thanks
Thanks dandroid. I guess the next time I travel to the US I'll see if I can get a hold of and active SIM card. Let me know if you hear of any other solutions. Thanks again.

Dandroid: If I request AT&T to unlock the device, will that help me?? Another question, would the firmware upgrade file from sammobile for the equivalent Telus device work then if I unlocked it from AT&T and then used odin??
Att will only sim unlock, which makes the device useable with other brand sim cards... mine was already Sim unlocked by att before I tried to update to 4.4.2, but in still needed an active att sim to update it.
Trying to flash any firmware other than sgh-i467 will brick your device - doesn't matter if it is unlocked or not.
Thanks again

Thanks dandroid. I guess I either wait and update on my next trip to the US (who knows when) or try the AT&T gophone option. $5 sim card and $20 refill. Activate it and hopefully it recognizes it then lets me do upgrade via wifi or Kies. That should work right?
That sounds like the easiest option to try... if you can get a cheap Sim card it might be worth a try.
I love this tablet, but I hate this locked bootloader bs...
I decided to try the latest U-firmware on my G930V. I had issues with previous G930U builds having SMS/MMS issues. I gave PL2 a shot yesterday and I've been really happy with it. The phone is very snappy and everything works as designed. Verizon visual voicemail can't be used, but it's not a huge deal. VoLTE works well. You can download My Verizon from the Play Store. I'd highly recommend this firmware compared to the previous builds. Make sure to enable the Verizon APN in APN settings after install.
I'd like to note that my phone is completely stock at this point, NOT ROOTED, so I didn't need to apply any fixes to make things work. You should be able to root without issue if that's your thing.
Downloading the firmware from Sammobile takes FOREVER, so I uploaded it to my AFH account to cut down on that download time for you guys.
G930UUEU4APL2
Backup using Smart Switch, then use Odin and flash ALL 4 files. Do yourself a favor and don't use HOME_CSC. It'll make things much smoother if you don't.
Let me know if anyone runs into any issues. I know in the past, some have had great experience with the U-firmware and others had issues with no reception. I want to see if the same holds true for this build.
Is this update in January?
Update: Yup, I took it last month and everything was OK. I am on Verizon Rom now just expecting it receives Nougat earlier than U furmware, which updates quarterly.

I was hoping Verizon would see the official Nougat by this point. I liked the feel of the U-firmware, but reception was a problem for me on Verizon. I decided I'd give the latest U-firm a shot since waiting for official Verizon Nougat seems like a lost cause at this point. I'll stay with this until Nougat is officially released. This firmware is the December update, and since they update it quarterly, an update should be around the corner. Maybe the next U-firmware will be Nougat. I think Nougat-U would be damn near flawless lol.
I've been running it since beginning of January no Issues
What exactly are the benefits of flashing this? Do I get 7.0? How is the reception? What are the cons?
I have a pretty big problem. I attempted flashing the 4 files with Odin 3.09. After a couple of seconds the operation terminated and now my GS7 is stuck in a bootloop. Whats worse is that when i attempted to boot into recovery, now it shows a blue screen with the android logo that says "installing system update" for about 2 seconds then shuts off, then tries again. Does anyone know how to fix this, at least so I can flash stock back on it?
Update: Fixed it, was able to get into download mode and use odin to flash stock. The flash failed but it was able to trip the OS and recovery back to normal for some reason.

No carrier bloat and a very smooth OS. The reception is great. The cons are that you don't get any of the carrier features, like WiFi calling, visual voicemail, ect.

Odin 3.9 might be too old. I've used Odin 3.11 or higher on the S7 and have never had any issues.
thanks to you it works perfectly but HOME_CSC failed and caused recovery bootloop after that i tried other CSC and it was successful. I've got very upset on V firmware because they deleted a lot of features on galaxy S7. they are worst

I'm still having issues with this latest firmwire. I do get LTE but not network connection. I still have circle with a line through it indicating that I don't have service. the service will come on for a second and then cut out. Service is called "123456".
Did you choose the APN to use? If you are using a Verizon SIM card, then it should give you the option to use Verizon, but you need to select it.

So there's APN settings and Network Operators. I'm actually using a verizon MVNO called boom mobile. If I selected "verizon" network, I get a notification that says " no service - selected netweork verizon not available". The other one's that show up from the selection are ATT, T mobile, and some 310830 thing. None of them work. I use automatic network detection.
As far as APN settings, I do use Verizon and I get LTE data from that. I just don't get the phone service connection.

Hmmm. This is passed my level of experience then. I'm only familiar with setting up and using authentic Verizon service. I can't speak for other services that use Verizon's network.

Yes you can.
Thank you for sharing your experience. I was looking into flashing the U firmware for a while and I finally pulled a trigger after seeing this thread.
Everything works well on Verizon and it feels great to have a clean phone & freedom to switch. I think it's worth waiting a little more for Nougat.
p.s. Anyone has an idea on when official G930U Nougat will be released?
Will this work for my AT&T S7 on PJ4 firmware?
jOdin3
hey guys,
this is the first non-nexus phone i've used, and I am excited about flashing the U firmware to get a clean stock experience on my g930v. I was wondering what files i should input in jOdin under the PDA/Bootloader/CSC/Phone fields after I extract the zip file SM-G930U? I have searched tried to watch some insufferable youtube videos on the matter have had no luck finding an answer. Also since I'm asking, is it possible to flash this firmware with jOdin3, sorry for the newbie questions, didn't know where else to go.
Thanks in advance to any helpful replies.
Solved the above, no need for replies.
Next though is when I try and flash using Jodin3 the pit file is acquired, the phone reboots and then it stays disconnected and I am unable to start the process after the phone reboots. Any suggestions?
Solved the above by using heimdall to extact pit.
I am close to giving up and flashing anything via jOdin3 I have tried pretty much everything to flash new firmware with no success, latest error is that there is a corrupt file, need to use Odin file...
HAS ANYONE had success flashing a Verizon S7 on macOS? if so please tell me where to go.

I've got a friend who purchased an unlocked Note4 with ATT branding and software. She uses it on Tmobile. I noticed recently while googling that it looks like currently note4 on ATT is on marshmallow. However, when i try updating the phone it says its already up to date. The phone is currently on 5.1.1. Not sure why it's not updating. Could it be because it's on Tmobile as the carrier since its an ATT branded phone? How would I go about updating it?

I was in the same situation, and discovered an XDA thread that allowed me how to update my note4.
It's as simple as downloading the official at&t updates onto your sdcard and apply onto your phone.
It's a long thread, but well worth the read:

I really appreciate the hint. i just recently got a new note4 (obvioulsy im not in the U.S) and cant get updates like you. Im very new to samsung (mod,flashed the shaiza out of my m8 and nexus 7, but this is new territory)
when i saw the link you shared it has the following
EPH5 to EPH7.
DOI9-to-EPH5
DOI7 to EPH5
DOI6-to-EPH5
i dont see DOI2.
can you please help me out with a few more hints as to what you did to get the latest update available... (i know about placing the files on sd and bootlader, select update etc)
but do i have to manually install every update to reach the last one?

I performed every step one-at-a-time.
Another option is to utilize ODIN (software) to jump steps, but it requires windows.
I don't do windows
Remove the back cover (so the phone doesn't overheat), and take your time...it will take a while

Another way to update AT&T devices on that aren't on AT&T is to get an AT&T SIM (99ยข on the AT&T GoPhone site), activate it on GoPhone but don't add any funds. The unfunded SIM won't let you make calls, send texts or use AT&T data but it will let you get OTA updates on WiFi.
Dear XDA developers.
I'm not an expert in this and i need someone to help or guide me through please to update my Note 10 + AT&T (N975USQU1ASGO) to Andriod 10. the last Security patch i got is July 2019. I tried:
1- Update the software... nothing works
2- Use Smart switch update, it does not provide any updates, always says I'm up to date.
3- Talked to AT&T customer service, they don't know anything. Same with Samsung guys.
It's noted that I unlocked the Phone to work on my T-mobile sim card. Is this a reason why I'm not getting any updates?
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Mido

Could be that you need an active AT&T SIM Card installed before you can receive the updates.
Some say this is no longer necessary with AT&T devices, but, if you know of someone who can lend you their AT&T SIM Card, at least you can rule it out one way or the other.
Odin... Don't wait for ATT to give updates. If it's unlocked just bypass them... Unless you need wifi calling voLTE...
All you need is samfirm or the other one, the current CSC that has the updated Android os, and Odin
No root required.
Use the home_csc to keep all user data. I'm willing to help if needed

As long as it's active, yes.
Again, I'd borrow one from someone, if you can.
Its been a couple years since I last had an unlocked AT&T phone, I bit the bullet and bought a prepaid AT&T Card (with phone/data) for this very reason & was able to immediately download any pending updates.
No guarantees that this will work, as some state that this isn't necessary any more.
IDK if you bought the phone new direct from AT&T, but, if you got it anywhere else, someone may have altered the original firmware/software, & perhaps that, if it's the case, could be the culprit.
My 1st stop would be calling AT&T Tech support, that's where I found out about needing an AT&T SIM Card for d/l updates. Again, this was a couple/few years ago, but, that would be my first move.
bro pudiste solucionarlo, tengo el mismo problema
Translation: Bro you could solve it, I have the same problem.
Go to a Samsung Experience at a Best Buy. They can flash it with latest AT&T firmware.
Not sure why you want it though as Pie is a better OS. I keep AT&T updates package blocked at all times.
No issues. Up until a year ago was still running on Kitkat.
The scope storage issue with Q looks real ugly and has to impact performance.
Android is just an Apple coming out of the closet...
I have a ATT N976U note 10+5g which i'm using on verizon , it works great but each time att releases an update for it i cannot get it over ota and verizon only has updates for the N976V version.

Years ago, I had the same issue with a Note 2,an AT&T version, but using it on another network (T-Mobile).
I had to go so far as to getting a month's worth of service w/pre-paid AT&T to connect to their servers to pull the update. Same a bit later with an LG device.
Fast forward to a year or two ago & some state this isn't necessary, but, it sounds like the same is holding true for you.
My suggestion is to find someone with an active AT&T SIMCard, see if you can borrow it to pull the update.
Another suggestion is to use Samsung's desktop PC tool Smart Switch, see if that works.
Otherwise, I'm stumped, unless you're familiar with Odin & someone here can locate the latest firmware to flash.
This should help with why your encountering difficulty finding (and a way to obtain) AT&T firmware.
