No Software update since Feb 2019? - Samsung Galaxy A50 Questions & Answers

Hi everyone,
I am not sure if some of you had a similar issue, but I have not received any update for my A50 purchased in April 2019.
The phone was bought in Italy but I am based in the UK. It has never received an OTA update either over the UK network or over the ITA network. Also no update is available via Smart Switch.

I am aware that a number of updates were released this year, so I wanted to ask you guys if any of you had the same experience as me, and if there is a way to receive them on my unit.
Thanks all

This is probably because of your device's original country does not receive the updates. The only real solution is install another firmware that has got updates.

I bought the device on March 25, the day of its launch in the Czech Republic. Since then, it has received six updates, mostly with major improvements in functionality. Updating the device firmware is therefore very important! In your case, I would try to install "Smart Switch" on my computer and update my phone with it. If you are unsuccessful, please contact Samsung support in your country.

I contacted Samsung support and they told me to wait, but it's November and I've never received a single update yet. Nothing on Smart Switch either.
Shall I look for manually flash a firmware? Do you have any experience with it in terms of future OTA updates?
Thanks again

i guess you could download rom from sammobile(official rom) and flash with odin. Just be careful to download PROPER version for your samsung model..

Bnd-l21c432b101 still no update

Hi guys,
Not sure what's going on but I'm not getting any updates whatsoever. I tried checking manually but to no avail. I also tried downloading the Huawei HiSuite App, there are software updates under my model number but it's saying it's not approved. WTH's going on? Does anyone have info on this?
Thanks,

Its random it seems. I just got it yesterday. Someone else on this forum said they got it last week but their wife didnt get it until this week even though they bought their phones at the same time and live in the same location. So there is no pattern it seems when it comes to the rollout.

I did a little research and B101 builds are not getting anything at all. Our security patch is still Oct 2017. And other builds, though not getting updates at the same time, still managed to get something. I don't wanna root and go to that route but after Q1 and still no updates, I'll probably do it.
B102 same situation.. I think moderators should get all this topics in the same.. because they are everywhere in the forum
I have L24 US version of Honor 7X. It was stuck at firmware B101. Always said "No update". Customer support could not help. I had a ATT Mexico SIM in it. As soon as I changed the SIM to T-Mobile US, it found updates B130 and B140. So update depends on SIM.
I also bought another Honor 7X that had already B130 and put in Movistar Mexico SIM and it found right away update B140. So it may be that only B101 needs a US Sim to update.
I hope this helps other people who are still stuck at original firmware B101.
Same here....
Just Nitty grittyy...
bought my device from Alie Express, In the back of the phone it is written BND-AL10
But in the settings it says BND-L21
I updated to BND-L21xxxxB102XXX
but no updates after that...
in hisuite & firmware finder both app, there are updates for the device but it says not authorized for installation.
Any Idea?
Hi,
I have the same problem. My Phonemodel is BND-21. Also on the back. I bought my device from Amazon.de. The huawei- support says, that the phone is from Spain. I'm in Austria. Next week I will talk to the support again and ask why I don't get updates.
If I have some time I'll make a factory reset and check for updates.

Always Delayed Software Updates

Hi guys, is it just me or is there something wrong with my unit?
This phone was bought from Dubai and now brought it here in the Philippines. I was wondering how samsung pushes it's monthly regional updates because right now I am currently stuck at BRE6 update with May 1st of security patch.
I am seeing lots of posts that they got the new update already while Im still clueless when will the update for me would come. Im starting to think of, maybe it is because the phone was moved from Dubai to Philippines? If not, please enlighten me.
Right now, what Im doing is go manual flashing all the time when an update is out. But downloading from sammobile is really sick because it limits my download speed really hard...
How about you? Do you manually flash updates through odin too or you get the update through OTA?
Regards.

Whatever you read about Samsung's monthly updates just isn't going to happen. I read that article that stated that they were committed to monthly updates but they haven't followed up on that. I've been getting my updates through OTA but have only had one since I purchased the phone and it's the June 1 2018 update.
I get USA OTA updates and mine is currently on August 1 security patch. I wish we would get more timely Android updates -- still on 8.0.0.
I received one OTA on Canadian firmware (g960w) but I quickly switched to 960u firmware since it's much faster for security.

Why no updates for Note 10+ since September 2019

Hi,
Since 21st of October I am the owner of a Note 10+ an awsome phone and again better than all previous Notes I had since Note 2
But the weird thing is that my Note 10+ is not updating. Bought in the Netherlands with Baseband N975FXXU1ASI1
and Sw version
SAOMC_SM-N(&%F_OXM_XEF_PP_0009
RF8M90BY7SD
XEF/XEF_XEF/VD2
I do understand that this phone was produced for the French market?
After unboxing the update which is still the "up to date one" is the 1 September security update
After this update I learned that Samsung send 3 more updates the security updates October, November and a service update end of October. regarding the Fingerprint scanner
Who knows how I can get the proper updates even when OTA is not working
Thansk in advance for your help :good:

Had the same problem with my DTM Firmware, to solve it i flashed the (in my case) DBT CSC with the newest firmware and now I get every update.
Some sellers imported the phone from other markets, countries. So they can buy the phone cheaper and make more profit. It's legal. But as it comes to update, your phone gets them when the country where they are imported from and not as they release in your own country. You can see the worldwide schedule at www.sammobile.com But if something is wrong, you won't have Samsung guarantee. Only the sellers guarantee.
I ordered my Note10+ directly from Samsung in The Netherlands, and updates are fine. This month I have already received 2 updates. You could indeed try to change the CSC.

SM-T837A not updating to android 10

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?

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...

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.

Question S901U OTA updates not received

Hello everyone
I bought an S22 with model number S901U (carrier locked T-mobile) from overseas in Dubai that I received unlocled in someway but was stuck on October 2022 security patch and android 12. It says it is up to date and refuses to find newer versions (no updates detected or pushed).
I manually updated the software to the february security patch and android 13 using sam mobile site and odin.
(I used the CSC that matched the device that was TMB/XAA)
After the update, the software version became ASR/XAA,XAA/XAA.
So the first question, what does this ASR stand for, I couldn't find it in any CSC abbreviations.
Secondly, the TMB is not shown, so does this mean that I will start receiving OTA updates directly from samsung?
(From what I understood, the phone is not receiving updates because it is the carrier locked version that has no connection/relation to the carrier, so will this software version change affect this).
After the update, I didn't detect any faults or problems so far, the device is still carrier unlocked and works fine till now.
Any help in explaining the situation will be much appreciated.
