I have a T-Mobile S5 that I got for a really great price that is unlocked and currently running on the ATT network. I cant update it from either carrier and I would like to know how to update it to the latest lollipop update available. I have been looking for awhile and cannot find any definitive answer to which firmware I should use. Android 4.4.2 baseband version G900TUVU1ANCH

Hello, and thank you for using XDA Assist!
If Knox got tripped, that would prevent you from getting OTA. Not sure if being on a different carrier would do it for that phone as well.
At any rate, I am connecting this thread to the forum your device experts can be found:

If you are rooted and want to keep root, update via Muniz_Ri's rooted stock ROM. I would however, advise you to wait a little while. The current Rooted stock rom is based on firmware version OG6, Android version 5.1.1, and it's pretty buggy.
Soon Muniz_ri will update his rooted stock ROM to the latest firmware, OJ4, which is much more stable.
If you don't care about rooting, just download the OJ4 firmware and install using ODIN.

How can I download the latest stock firmware if I buy the AT&T unlocked version and use it in another country? also would I be able to use a custom firmware on it?
You probably can't use any of the custom firmware currently out for International version, the CPU/RAM configuration is different. But you could probably still update the stock firmware using Kies.
Thanks, yea I guess I will be waiting for other developers to tinker with the AT&T firmware and I have to learn how to apply it as I have never used Android before
Hey guys, live in the Bahamas and have a international s3 baseband i9300ubdli2, was wondering with all the updates to 4.1.2 which version do i really have since the new update in not available to my phone as yet. can someone clear this up for me. all help is appreciated. Thanks
It doesn't matter as long as it's an i9300 rom
If you really want, just reflash the current modem you are using after the update.
My only suggestion would be to make sure you don't use a firmware from another carrier. Otherwise you're likely to get bloatware out the wazoo.
I bought htc one m8 from e-bay (at&t unlocked) when I was USA. That at&t apps are really annoying and I didnt get the lollipop update. I wanted to update the rom by myself and delete the at&t apps. And now I rooted + unlocked bootloader and installed android revoulation 5.0.1 lollipop rom. I can't use wifi + I cant reboot the phone (it stucks at white HTC screen). I didn't flash firmware because s-on still. So I need really simple and detailed information about what to do. Can anyone pm me about it or explain in comments?
There is not Lollipop update for AT&T yet.
And if you aren't on AT&T's network you won't get any OTAs either. AT&T is fairly unique in this regard, other versions will update regardless of what carrier you are connected to.
For most Lollipop ROMs, you will find your WiFi is broken due to wrong (old) firmware. Your options:
1) A couple Lollipop Sense ROMs (LeeDroid?) seem to work with 4.4.4 firmware. But if your firmware is older than 4.4.4, I don't think any Lollipop Sense ROMs will work.
2) Revert to a ROM version that supports your firmware. For instance, if you are still on 4.4.4 firmware, install a stock or custom 4.4.4 Sense ROM.
3) S-off and update your firmware "manually".
Hey All,
I have an unlocked Galaxy S6 SM-G920W8 with build version G920W8VLU2BOJ7, which is rogers android 5.1.1.
The problem is Rogers has still not released android 6.0.1 and I am tired of waiting. Also I have switched to wind as my provider and since it's a rogers build I can't get an OTA update from wind.
From what I understand there is so such thing as a samsung stock rom for android 6.0.1
So I would like to load a rom for wind, I know that wind has released their android 6.0.1 with build number G920W8VLU3CPC5 is there any reason why I can't load that onto my phone?
Or is there a better option.
Thanks
~T
here's link for all official firmwares for rogers

The reason it says your on the latest firmware is because you are rooted. At&t firmware is hard to come by as they lock the bootloader and device down. If you are not bothered about root flash stock firmware and you can uodate OTA.
I have the same problem except that my phone is not rooted, im on stock AT&T Android 5, but it still says i have the latest firmware.
Someone told me that it has to be connected to AT&T cell towers to find the update but even that didn't work for me.

I will give it a shot but first i need to find the stock firmware because its hard to find for my device specifications, and i will let you know if it worked for me
Edit: flashing the stock firmware locks phone to only at&t network since i use different network i will not try to update it
