I bought a Verizon G8 on ebay and I'm using it on Xfinity mobile which is Verizon MVNO. I'm trying to update to the latest security update, but when I click on update, the system is not detecting new firmware. In the past, I remember you don't have to have Verizon service to get the updates. Is there anyway to update the security patch manually?

Yeah woops I forgot there was October
I can't seem to make my phone to see the October update. Any recommendations. I heard doing a reset and check without sim.

So it turns out all you have to do is put a Verizon sim in, and OTA took right away. It won't update with a Xfinity Mobile sim card in. Wish we get the Android 10 update soon. Sprint already got it.

"When verifying the update, the software version should now be LRX21T.G900VVRU2BOG5. The update is only 904 MB."
This is the update to Verizon Galaxy S5 for Lollipop 5.0 from July 21, 2015.
One of those copy cat articles. Multiple people post the same thing to try to pass themselves off as experts. Half the time the article barely makes sense. Google Verizon note 4 5.1.1 and you'll see once you go through a few links.

The writer is an idiot. He's writing the GS5 update as the Note 4 update. That update was for the Verizon GS5. There is no 5.1.1 update for the note 4 yet.

I think Sprint Note 4 got their update over a month ago, will we ever get our 5.1.1?
Patiently waiting for the update...

I think that Verizon will release the update in october. Most other carriers are doing so, therefore I assume Verizon will follow suit.

Hi,
I've been waiting for the MM update but for some reason the OTA is not pushing through. I noticed that the build number is an old build (ending AO16) back in November. Is there a reason why my phone is not getting any updates at all?
Thanks
Also not rooted and never have on this phone...

Do you have an att sim and are you in the US? If not, that's the issue.

Have you tried a factory reset? If that doesn't solve it I would say a new SIM card.
The pe6 Odin file is available in a thread over in the general section so you could always go that route too.

Go to this link and flash pe6 to your device using Odin, then you can receive OTA's.
The easiest solution is to call AT&T and ask them to push the missing updates to your phone.
Okay, thanks guys!

I'm also Sprint. Maybe you're jumping straight to Nougat. I am in San Antonio area and always get slow updates. Indicated 09/01 security and bug fixes. I miss my Nexus 5....

Is it sprint or LG? Seems like LG is kind of strict for rooting their phones. Sucks..
Not sure...sucks that the european version got an official unlock

Hi All:
After I updated to Android 10, I noticed an icon for Network Unlock in my app drawer, but it went away soon after the apps were "optimized." It still shows up in my apps settings under "all", but I cannot access it.
I have a AT&T branded N975U running BSL7. Anyone have any idea what this app is or how to access it?
Thanks in advance!
On my T-mobile version it is under network settings under more connection settings

Same here. It let me permanently unlock my phone.
Did you have it for longer than 40 days? It says my device is ineligible to be unlocked. I paid it off already but only had it a few weeks.

I've had it since prerelease, but it's financed, so I'm a bit surprised.
Interesting. Maybe it must cares about being in use for 40+ days on postpaid T-mobile account

lol for sim unlocking.. just as the name suggests.. theres reference to it in some init files.. theres also some properties that reference it such as ssu.status and ssu.support.. i think theres only 3 carriers that use it from what I saw with TMB and VZW being two of them

tmo has the option in settings.. it uses the unlock app.. before tmb used to have their own app but newer devices its integrated..
it will let u unlock given your device is eligible.. vzw devices however dont have the option since according to vzw after so many days it will be automatically unlocked so no need to include it in settings like tmb does

im sure theres a time requirement.. most carriers have them.. i would check online for tmb device unlock policies if u want specifics.. every carrier has their unlock policies online.. its the best way to fibd out since most the time ppl on the internet will just tell u wat they believe it is and even reps half the time make stuff up to get you off the phone n dont actually look up the policies.. this is coming from a quality rep for a major carrier lol
Sent from my SM-N976V using Tapatalk
Thanks, yeah I checked in their site and it says device must be fully paid off and active for 40 days for it to be eligible for network unlock.
Also they only let you unlock 2 phones in a year or line of service. What I find interesting is someone was able to unlock One plus 7 pro McLaren within a week of buying it.... Such inconsistencies and mysteries we may never know the answer for[emoji3]
Were you a ROM developer in the past? I recall your username from some guide posted on XDA or ROM for older galaxy phone [emoji846]
