T-Mobile S8+ on Sprint Network, OTA issue - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers

Hi,
I've been using my T-Mobile S8+ on Sprint,
and System updates -> Download updates manually option gives me an error all the time: "Couldn't download update. Unable to update the software. A network or server error occurred. Try again later."
To update to RH1 firmware, I had to insert T-Mobile sim card, restore back to T-Mobile version and update, then come back to Sprint version with Sprint sim card.
But this time, I need RIB firmware since Sprint now supports VoLTE.
Seems like there's no RIB ODIN file yet, and I'm not sure if I can just ODIN it with Sprint firmware, and not sure how to keep my data with ODIN.
Any idea?

Since you aren't on Verizon's network you can't take OTA updates. But you can flash with Odin
Use the original sim if you have it.
I had the same problem because I was using a nextplus go sim card. Luckily I had my original sim that came with the phone. I just swapped it back in and updated over wifi from 5.0.1 to 5.1.1. It worked perfectly.

I don't that means but I'll figure something out...
Not really technical when it comes to cell phones.

Help lost baseband on xt1789-04 at&t

Hi the last week i update the Z2 force AT&T from 7.1.1 to Oreo. After updating I had no mobile network so I decided to flash another modem specifically Verizon but now I lost all the baseband the WiFI and mobile data doesn't works and it tells me that the baseband is unknown , i try to flash again the AT & T modem and nothing. Unlock the bootloader a while ago maybe that's useful.
WHAT CAN I DO?
The baseband says unkown because you used Verizon's firmware on an AT&T phone. I did this accidentally last week.
Now, when you said "After updating I had no mobile network" did it not recognize the SIM and have the little warning icon or did it just never connect? For the former, get a new SIM. I had this issue on a samsung with AT&T once. For the latter you might want to check your APN setting here:. https://www.att.com/support/article/wireless/KM1062162/

Help: Samsung G965U update

Hello,
I currently have a AT&T factory unlocked G965U build R16NW.G965USQU3ARG7 on T-Mobile. Yesterday I popped an activated AT&T SIM card to update the device to Pie and had no luck. Can I download the latest version PPR1.180610.011.G965USQU3CSAB and install it via ODIN or do I need to do an incremental upgrade. I tried updated to R16NW.G965USQS3ARG8 via SD card sideload and got an “error 7”, I do not care about the data on the phone. Should I only use ODIN? Thanks for your help.

Need ATT firmware for S20 Ultra SM-G988U

Can anyone assist in helping me download latest att firmware for S20 ultra? I believe it is G988USQU1ATCT. Back story: I flashed an unlocked Verizon version with the G988USQU1ATAW att firmware and have been unable to get it to update. Currently using the device with First Net. I know att firmware isn't available with frija. Any help would be appreciated.

Update: I was able to enable OTA update by first doing a factory reset but most importantly, inserting my wifes ATT sim card. Once inside, I checked software updates, and got 2 updates back to back.

was going to say all the carrier models use same firmware
So did the att sim work with the unlocked verizon firmware and you have the sm-g988u1 phone, just asking im trying to get Android 11 with one ui 3.0

Sm-g975u need help switching att to tmobile

sm-g975u unlocked att phone wanting to change to tmobile. I have a tmobile sim and had originally plugged this in. The phone works fine but I recently noticed it has no Ota updates occurring.

Last update may 2019
When I try says fully updated when I put it on samsung switch it says fully updated
Can this be done?
What firmware do you suggest?
Csc *#272imei#(may have that wrong) but is recognized and does work not sure when and what to use here, many options.
Also, not sure of the answer here, but if I run an update or csc change (the phone is unlocked) would it require me to unlock it again for any reason?
I am trying to get the phone close to a tmobile if that is possible
Thank you in advance if i need to give more info please let me know.
Download the firmware of your current network and flash you will begin to receive updates. However you can also flash the unbranded one which is G975U1 and you will still receive updates too
Can you give directions on how to get the firmware for the current network and how to flash the phone? I have an SM-G975U that is on SPR that I need to get to ATT so it will get updates from cricket. I have found a lot of materials on the internet and not a single one shows all of the steps clear enough for me to risk blowing up my phone. I have found the SPR files and TMK, and USA, and TMB, but no ATT.
