Nope, my themes are working just fine. Actually just downloaded a couple new ones after the update.
Downgrade possible?
Download link
Can somebody give download link to g930a bq6
Just upgraded. I was hoping the volume control would be fixed in this version of Android but it is just as dumb as the last one. Volume buttons only adjust ringtone but not notifications. Media volume gets turned down with headphone or Bluetooth connect. To turn up the volume I have to click OK, WTF... I have been blasted with loud music when numerous times in my car when switching sourves because the volume on the phone is lowered automatically.

QA6 IS the same version we had a week or so ago. Same revision number. QA4 was the one before that and the one you may be referring too but we got QA6 beforehand also. If you have QA6 ready to go, it's the same thing.
Is there any reason for a phone not to get the upgrade. Everyone around me as gotten the upgrade but my phone still says software is up to date.

A little more info about your phone would make it easier for people to help you. What firmware are you on, have you froze any apps in the past, are they still frozen, have you rooted, if yes then what method did you use to unroot.

Yea i would reenable them since APK1 is the latest firmware not APG1. At least it is in the S7 flat. You have the edge it looks like.
I enabled all apps and set my date ahead to check again still says I am on the latest.

Find the APK1 firmware for the edge and use Odin to flash it (will erase data on phone), wait 24 hours ad check again. Or download the nougat QA6 file and sideload it (also will erase data on phone) . That's what i suggest. Or after you reenabled the apps you can reboot your phone into recovery and wipe cache.
I downgraded to PK1 and bam! On QA6 via OTA. This also resolved the issue with AMEX not registering on Sammy Pay.
Problem with my phone
I have the same issue everyone around me got nougat and I still don't. I've tried everything even side loading and I got a signature verification error when I tried 3 different times

QA6 went on mine fine with PK1 on my phone. I used QA6 on a new SD Card method, so was only thing on SD card when I booted phone into Recovery to install QA6 from the SD card.

I'm a new guy here so if this needs to be directed somewhere else please let me know.
I have an AT&T HTC One M7 and it is apparently not receiving updates. I am still on 4.3 and my phone never received the update to 4.4.2 back in February when it released in the US. Now that Sense 6 is officially out I haven't received that yet either but it just came out yesterday. When I go to AT&T Software Update it immediately says there's no updates available and will check again in 48 hours. I've tried the trick of changing the date on my phone which didn't work either. I spoke with AT&T and they claim they have no way to push the update to my phone and that I should get it replaced. I chose not to because I had HTC fix the camera sensor(pink hue issue) and the phone is now rock solid. I've been searching on this forum on how to update my phone using the OTA update because I like the stock firmware with Sense and want to keep it but it's information overload here. Threads with over 100 pages of replies with no real clear walkthroughs. Does anyone know how to somehow force the update to show up on my phone? If not, can someone direct me to where I can download the OTA update?
Any help would be appreciated.
Never mind! Figured out it was my Sim card. Put my wife's card in and it downloaded immediately.

My wife's is doing the same thing, except the SIM card swap didn't work either. I tried to load it through stock recovery, but that didn't work either. AT&T doesn't have any answers, and I've reset the phone three times with no success. It did the same thing with 4.4, but I figured it was a system wide issue due to others not being able to receive it.

Has anyone received this ota update or even Kies? Kies doesn't have it and ota manual check is a no go. I guess I might unroot if it becomes available soon altho I will lose the "unlockedness" and I won't be able to use metro pcs on it. I think the mega is ready for a smoother and more efficient OS. Can't wait to see how it runs on it.

I got the DL OTA- takes about an hr. to download and must be over wifi. Over 500 mb. If you are rooted, it will not install. I unrooted with OTA rootkeeper Voodoo and it failed at 25%. Then I left it rooted. It failed at 28%. The 3rd time I unrooted with supersu. Crossed my fingers, let voodoo keep my root backup, and it did install.
Voodoo won't work on anything over 4.3, so it won't restore my root. Kingo won't work either. So you will lose root till someone figures out how to root without a flashable zip.
I wonder if you have to be on AT&T's network to get the update even if you're useing a different carrier.

You have to have an att sim in or you will get an error message- something like update check interrupted. Found this out cause I would have a ptel sim in it and the software check for update would fail with that message. At least that's how OTA works.

You don't have to have an AT&T sim in to get the update. Best bet, unroot with SuperSU and remove both the SIM and the SD card, power on and try the update.
My S4 Active upgraded to KitKat last week with a Net10 SIM in it, no problem.
I think you do on this phone I kept getting update interrupted with my t mobile sim card and 64gb memory card in. I did as you said and removed and im still getting that.
Try this...
Try to backup your phone via Kies. Once that is done, remove root permanently from superSU-settings then do a factory reset with the SIM and SD out. Once complete, connect to your wifi, download and install the update. Worked on mine.

That may have worked with your s4. This is a Mega. When I had my ptel sim in it I would get update check interupted. When I put in my att sim, The check would go though all the way. Then say I was on the latest available.
Is Net 10 an att mvno?? I know ptel is a t-mo mvno.
To save myself time, I just put in my att sim to grab the 4.4.2 update. You have to have a wifi connection or it won't DL. You can't be rooted or it won't install. I'm talking strictly OTA.
When I plugged into my Kies, it wanted to update to a newer kies version. That installed, then said it is not compatible with my Mega!! Offered to install Kies3. So I did. That works with the Mega. I don't know if it will work with my Note 8 tab.

I wasn't referring to my S4a, rather my Mega. I'm already working on an ODIN image and I'm currently dumping the PIT file so we can unlock the bootloader. Much easier in KitKat, I think

I wonder why Kies dosent have the update. What a bummer.

Now to have to re-install all my apps and sign in to alllllllllllll my accounts all over again...I hate factory resetting.

Because the update was released by ATT, not by Samsung. The only way to d/l is by WiFi through ATT's updater.

Ok, finally figured it out.
1) Unroot device
2) Factory reset ( take out sim and sd)
3) after factory reset and you are back into your phone insert an active at&t sim and wait for it to activate. (you might have to restart)
4) Check for an update and BAM!
P.S if you have a hard time because every time you check for an update it makes you wait 24 hours befor you can check again, just set you date one day ahead in the settings and try again.

Oops! ?
I know, shame on me. I should never attempt to install an update that shouldn't have anything whatsoever to do with my boot loader being locked or unlocked.
Actually, I should probably start paying Google to collect my personal data and ask them each time I install apps as well.
Care to explain exactly in detail why a OTA would failed on a unlocked boot loader? And why it would affect a factory boot loader at that? And why the 5.0 update didn't give a damn (as it should) about if the boot loader was locked or not?

Is anyone able to grab the OTA link and post it?
If someone is running the 5.1 GPE on their ZU-gpe, can you share the build.prop from it please?
I received my update today too. So far so good.
You can do the :
- App Settings -> Clear Data (on Google Framework services)
- Dial *#*#2432546#*#*
- Settings - > About -> System Update
It may even prompt you to download again before you get to the System Update screen.

i don't know for sure but probably not. I have had the phone for two years now and the bootloader was never locked previously
I wish I had that link about an hour ago, but figured out how to use the SamFirm Tool posted in another thread. Happy Flashing everyone
Also. First boot is taking ages
I'm so excited! AH. I need to get Odin now -.-
How does everyone like it so far?
Also, does anyone know if it would be a good idea for me to flash back to the stock Lollipop rom and then flash the update via Odin? I'm on a custom rom right now and I don't know if that will mess things up.
I was rooted on FOL1, flashed the marshmallow update via odin. Make sure you factory reset to set the binary status as offical, because I'm having booting issues

Have you been able to Root? Please share your experience. Can't wait really!
I'm still waiting on the update to boot.
Hmmm, after rebooting and upgrading the "google Play Services" app, Google play finds an update for Samsung Voice Recorder which won't update and crashes with an error code 505. Will try and mess with the permissions for that app.
Decided to flash the stock rooted rom and update via Kies. As of right now it is optimizing app 105/273
Update: It rebooted after optimizing the last app and now its been hanging out at the T-Mobile screen for the last four or so minutes
Update 2: FINALLY got it to boot :3 I ended up flashing the image again through Odin~
Update 3: Rooted (followed this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/tmo...sm-g900t-firmware-t3358190/page4#post66995024)
Yay~ Marshmallows
Edit: It looks like some people are having trouble with this update so I'm going to give a quick rundown of what I did and how I got everything to go smoothly. Now I'm not saying this is the correct way to things because most likely it isn't, but this is is just what I did that worked (for me, hopefully for you too).
Step 1. I flashed the stock rooted rom on my phone and unrooted it (not sure if this part is necessary) and then connected it to Kies to let it update that way (I was too lazy to mess with Odin tbh).
Step 2. After realizing I had been stuck on the T-Mobile splash screen for about 20 minutes to long I downloaded the image from the Mega link provided on this thread. Booted the phone into download mode, flashed via Odin, phone booted properly in no time.
Step 3. Installed Custom Recovery and Rooted the phone following the method in the link posted above.
MARSHMALLOW PARTY~
So I installed via Odin and as I was going through the initial setup it asks about WiFi and I turn it on and it keeps turning itself off after a few seconds.
UPDATE: Rebooted and was able to get WiFi to stay on.

What root options should we be trying? CF Auto Root?
I installed this over the top of Lollipop using Odin. all my data carried over and everything seems to be running just fine. Installed TWRP and SuperSU, roots working just fine as well.
Only issue I'm coming across is an update to the Samsung voice recorder in the Play Store keeps failing with error 505.

Just tried Dec A1 global OTA and got the attached errors. Will I be safe to reboot? Or how do I sort this?
I'm in the UK on a Google Store unlock P6
Just rebooted. Install failure was immediate so despite the warnings guessed I'd be ok. Thankfully I was
Can't figure out where I went wrong. Can anyone tell me why I got those errors?
I got essentially the same errors on my laptop, but it went fine on my desktop. Try a different cable and a different computer or a USB port that is on the motherboard.

Just tried Dec A1 global OTA and got the attached errors. Will I be safe to reboot? Or how do I sort this?
I'm in the UK on a Google Store unlock P6

sort of looks like you flashed a coreupt download... or the wrong firmware for your device

Checked the download was good.

You verified the md5 checksum after you downloaded it? The only other thing would be you flashed the wrong one for your device ... but I guess if it works, no point in continuing on right?

I got essentially the same errors on my laptop, but it went fine on my desktop. Try a different cable and a different computer or a USB port that is on the motherboard.

Might be the cable. Can't be sure if I used a different cable last time? It'll have to wait for another day now.
You try the google flash tool? If you're unlocked you could extract the factory image and fastboot update with the extracted Oriole zip

You should be using the A4 OTA file since you're in the UK

My understanding is that the A1 build is a Global build for Google Store bought unlocked phones which mine is.
Besides I tried A4 when A1 failed with the same result.
Pretty sure it's a cable issue.

That happened to me the 1st time I sideloaded the mid-nov update, it read the img but failed installing it.
Turned out that simply switching from the front left USB 2.0 to the front right USB 2.0 of my PC solved it and I was able to sideload properly. No idea how or why that would make a difference though but I guess that's technologie for you
Hoped the OTA worked come today and save me the hassle. Still not got it though in the UK. How long can it take to come through?

Rumor has it that if you sideloaded the mid-november update (037) you won't get an OTA at all.
No idea if that applies to you but if it does you should consider using the flash tool to see whichever update it shows you as Default, then sideload that one. That way future updates should be OTA again (as long as you're not rooted).

Yea V0latyle was faster lol - you need to use Chrome for that link though (or maybe Edge too), Firefox etc aren't supported.

Any threads relating to the no OTA rumours?

Check this sub forum, there are 1 or 2 that are about the December update and I'm pretty sure users in both mentioned it somewhere.
If you flash 037 update you won't get ota for December update.
But it's better to stay on November patch level.
I'm on December and have bad connection.
Can't use phone call longer then 10 sec ...
