Hi this is my first post here I'm trying to find the right firmware to unbrand my phone. I'm in London and I bought an unlocked AT&T phone a guy from Gumtree.
1. After connecting my Gear VR it says that software update is needed
2. Then it checks with AT&T for software update but it says it already the latest software. Is it because I'm in Europe it doesn't allow me to see the update?
3. Now it says to wait 24 hours before next check(ridiculous! What kind of rubbish servers they have???)
How to:
Remove branding and get pure Samsung soft without this AT&T rubbish overlay
What processor is in this phone? I think it's Snapdragon but still I'm not sure and I don't want to brick this phone
More about the phone:
Model: SM-N910A
Android: 4.4.4
Baseband: N910AUCU1ANIE
Device name: My little pony
Kernel version: 3.10.0-2771708 [email protected] #1
Build number: KTU84P
Security enhancement(I guess something to block you from unblocking): SEPF_SAMSUNG-SM-N910A_4.4.4_A019
MOD EDIT: Please read forum rules. There is no selling/trading/buying on XDA. Use swappa.com
Can't unbrand because the att note 4 is boot loader locked and unrootable at this time, but you can flash the stock update manually through Odin.

It didn't work. After changing software to the version from the post it gear vr again says it needs an update and then AT&T again says it up to date. So ****ing frustrating! This is my first experience with AT&T company and I can only say it's ****.

I couldn't find that file. Where have you seen it? I ordered another Galaxy Note 4. Lol first I bought was counterfeit and still waiting for a refund, second AT&T being useless ATM (I only care about gear VR), third from a company on amazon with 1 review, hopefully this time I'll be lucky.

Hello!
I am a developer in New Zealand with a USA AT&T Samsung Note 4 sent to me by Oculus in 2014.
Sorry for being a noob with this stuff!
The phone has been unlocked to work on the New Zealand Vodafone network - for this reason (from what I understand) the AT&T Android updates do not work "Your device is up to date!".
A 360 VR video plugin I need to use requires Android 5.1+ but my phone is 4.4.4.
Is there a simple guide somewhere that I can follow to update my AT&T Note 4?
I do not care if it wipes any AT&T stuff - or are the different provider's versions of this phone actually different hardware-wise?
I've tried searching but lacking some of the terminology needed to get it done. It all seems needlessly complex just to update the OS...
I contacted Oculus support who forwarded me to Samsung support who told me to try "Smart Switch" PC software, which said my phone was up to date. Contacted them again and they told me to take the phone to a Samsung service center in Albany 30 minutes drive away. I'll try this if I have to.
Thanks!

Thanks @norbarb.
Which files would I need though?
My AT&T Note 4 model number is SM-N910A.
Android version 4.4.4
Build number KTU84P.N910AUCU1BNK3.
I am not sure what the "S2EPK4 to S2EPK5" etc numbers are.

You need odin to EPH5 then use file by file to ADB sideload all the way to EQD1. Numbers are last 4 numbers of build
Hi. I have the AT&T LTE version of the tab s4, SM-T837A. I read that the android 10, One UI 2.1 update for my device went live a month ago, but I'm not receiving any updates. I'm on android 9, One UI 1.1. It says I'm up to date. Any ideas how I can get this update? Does anyone know a safe place I can download it from and do it manually? Sammobile doesn't seem to have it... At least, I can't find it.
If it matters, I don't have a SIM card currently installed on the tablet.
Thanks for your help.
-Dave
because your info is wrong. only the samsung stock versions got the update. all carriers are lagging behind as usual. still waiting for my Tmobile variant also. you can look on sammobile.com and browse the firmware database to confirm what i'm talking about. T837A didn't get the update yet. it;s still on 9
Yes I have the same question. I found only the wifi model is updated to Android 10. Has anyone on a carrier device flashed the wifi version?

Not only wifi version & other variants, except USA carries (verizon,t-mobile etc)

No you can't, if the device is locked to the carrier...you have to wait update from your carrier ,if it gives the upgrade of course
Att issued the update a few weeks ago, and a smaller update hit my T837a today. It contains September security update and a new radio firmware. link to imgbb if the attachment doesn't work as I'm getting an NGINX error. I been here since 2007 never seen such before...
https://ibb.co/M6Hnkvv
Still won't update
I have the AT&T version of the Tab S4 and it still shows I'm up to date, yet I'm still on the January 1, 2020 security patch does anyone know what to do?
I am in the same boat. AT&T Tab S4 will not update. Is there any way to manually flash? I don't see the update available to download
Complain to att. I pissed and moaned to online live chat support after the international version got it's update. Complained every couple of weeks until finally they asked for my imei, then a few weeks later I checked for updates and it did the 10 update.
I think this has been asked before in a different way in this section but no real response yet. I did some research in the other Samsung device forums and see that often it is possible to remove branding or switch carriers adjusting device ID and bootloader etc. But no idea how to do it for the Tab S4.
I'm sick of waiting for slow updates through T-Mobile (or any carrier) and would like to fully unlock it's potential with Android 10 rather sooner than later. I bought this device second hand network unlocked.
Any short or long answer to these questions? Can it be done? If so where to start?
Am looking to do so, with the t835 you will have full calling functionality,,,

not needing the calling function on a tablet. but steady updates are welcome... tired of waiting twice.. first for Samsung with slow update policies then another time for carriers that already got their money and cant care much a anymore...
i'd be looking for T835C since I'm in China now.

The short answer is no.
I've tried that after I found my T837V can be successfully loaded with T837R4/T837T/... firmware. I thought maybe I could flash stock firmware of other versions. But if you do that with any firmware other than T837*, you will get "secure check fail pit" error. So sadly no.

Thanks for the response! So it does mean you can freely flash T837 versions which could mean I can just wait for the first version that comes out with android 10. Any first release should work. Right?
Turkey version has it:

T837 is Turkey version and I've tried it. It can't be loaded, maybe it need to be T837x which are all US variants.
As for Android 10 update, I think this will work. I'm waiting for the first one who gives the OneUI 2.1 update. So far the Verizon version(T837V) seems to have the most active firmware updates.
In the USA, SM-T837 ARE carrier tablets.
There are the SM-T837A, V, and T; ATT, Verizon, T-Mobile. TheSe are locked to the Carrier. If you have them unlock it, OTA upgrades are over. If you know how to hack the firmware, you can write over the carrier version. The best way to go is probably custom ROM AND ROOTING. But in other nations, it will probably work to write a different Samsung ROM. The SM-T835 HAS no US version, so you can probably write any tab s4 Factory ROM to it.
The USA HAS so many cellular devices, the rules are strict. And, the carriers sell the devices pretty cheap. So, they want them to stay with their service.
T-mobile update for android 10 finally out just got it

It sounds good to me, but when I felt the impossibility of not being able to downgrade I was forced to sell it as a tmobile device, since for some strange and not logical reason, it did not register on the sprint network in any way and the only option that sprint gave me is to send it to warranty:crying:
Hi
I bought what I thought was a genuine S9 from someone and it turns out it has a Spanish ROM on it and it has got horrid apps on it. I want a UK version of the latest ROM but can't find it on SAMMOBILE or anything?
Version is: Galaxy S9
SM-G9600
Baseband: G9600ZCU1ARBE
Current Android: 8.0.0
I am wanting to flash it with ODIN which I have done before but just can not find the ROM anywhere. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Try it and see if works, should do.
Thanks, my model no is SM-G9600 though, as per OP. On Sammobile I can't see a rom for this model no that's why I was trying to understand it further?
Did you get through? The actual number which you should check for is one which you can get if you install "Phone Info" and look under the "CSC CODE" tab. The product code is the exact one for your phone. Look for this one on SamMobile and install using Odin. I'm not an expert here, but this should give you what you're looking for.
Hi. I'm really struggling to be fair. I can't fine anything for UK on this model. I can find the rom from every other country apart from UK. Total brick wall to be honest. The rom that the chap above suggested was for a completely different model so I don't want to risk it. I will try it if I know it won't break it but I'm getting nothing for this.
I think this image is better
