I got this new edge N915F, its on Kitkat and after checking update OTA, its not getting any lollipop update. So is there anyway to update it manually and is it worth it?
You should search on other topic instead starting new thread.

I did and all I got was Beta build. I'm looking a way to flash a final release since I'm not getting any OTA whereas my friend with 915G got one OTA.
I found this official firmware on sammobile but it's for Uae baseband N915FXXU1BOD2, on the other hand my baseband is N915FXXU1ANK4. Can I flash it?

Yeah, I meant 4.2.2 Sorry had a long day. Spent 12h at university. Can you point me to a clean update? I am sick of all the specific-network apps

Xmmmm....go to www.sammobile.com and download the firmware according to your country and flash it via odin
Reg is required if you want to download a firmware
Good Luck

It's not released in my country yet. I just wanted a version of the firmware that is not assosciated with any network.

Then just download firmware for another country
I think it won't be associated with network.Good Luck
So my assumption was that when I downloaded one of the GPE roms and switched to the T-Mobile version since I'm using T-Mobile on the Verizon variant I wouldn't get official updates.
Right now I got this and I'm wondering if it will brick my device if I install it. It probably thinks I'm using the T-Mobile variant when I'm using the Verizon variant with a lollipop rom on kit-kat firmware (I'm also not sure how to update to lollipop firmware).

Hell no.But first check rom thread if there is an ota update for this variant.If not,not don't download it
TO check or update firmware.
Go to this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2723159.Check it how to do it.
Then go to bootloader & check your current firmware to makesure whether you have KK or Lp firmware

There are two ota updates from early/mid march but I haven't got to downloading them yet.
Check with your ROM creator, but generally no, 5.1 isn't stable yet. We may need to wait for RUU before it can be adopted.
RUU is the stock ROM right?

Yeah, basically the manufacturer's (HTC) packaged update including firmware and radios.
i've just got my opo back after a long time not using it because of broken screen.
i need to update it to MM rom and i want to know what is the most recent firmware available.\
i found a firmware zip from the 01/02/2016, is the a newer one?
Tnx ahead!
Here is the latest official Rom for the OPO.
https://cyngn.com/support
It is still Lollipop, there is no update to Marshmallow yet.
If you still want to have Marshmallow you have to unlock the bootloader and flash a custom rom.

Hey guys hope you are having a good day, I read online that some variants of galaxy s7 won't receive the nougat update, is that true ? Or did all the variants receive it ?
Thank you in advance.
After reading too myself, It was found to be a bug. If that is indeed the case, there is no reason to worry as you can easily use ODIN to flash the latest version of Nougat.

Thank you that's reassuring, so I won't have to worry no matter what variant I get ?
Yup, don't worry, the cases you have been reading are isolated cases.

Do the MM update by downloading from Sammobile.
Don't screw around with OTA updates. . . . too much chance of an error.

That I couldn't say.
Why not a custom ROM with root?

It seems your phone is a little different due to the bootloader.
I did find this though:

Do a little research on the web and on this board.
You'll probably find some good answers.
