I see that other variants have gotten their MM updates and was wondering if anyone with the H950 has the MM update yet. I've been checking for updates but it keeps saying that the phone is up to date.
Yeah it looks like we're kind of screwed :/
Stupid AT&T
They keep giving dumb responses @Ahmed_Tar Hi, Ahmed! ATT is actively working on software updates. Please stay tuned here: https://t.co/a38MAnO9G1 ^GregH

They told me this twice and ignored me twice :/
I just started getting a notification on my H950(5.1.1) yesterday that I have a software update ready to install. It said its 111MB~ but I am rooted so it keeps failing to install because my phone is "Suspected in rooting..." I'm trying to figure out how to get back to stock so I can install the OTA Update.
Edit: Nevermind, reading some of the other threads it looks like it not MM but some sort of security update.
My H950 wont even find the 5.1.1 update (OTA or Suite, doesnt matter)
I have a feeling that we wont have much luck..

Are you on AT&T? I had to put a prepaid AT&T sim in my H950 and call AT&T to push the 5.1.1 update to my phone before I got it OTA. I am on Straight Talk now but it still notified me of the new security update. You might have to get that first update through AT&T.

I bought this phone on ebay, from a korean vendor. Also, I live in Portugal, so that option wouldnt work for me.
Well, I just flashed the H950PR 5.1.1, and the changes are really noticeable.
And yes, it used to be AT&T

Hi, I have a serious question. I recently bought my LG G3 D850 AT&T version and I'm loving it. I rooted it and removed AT&T bloatware. I was wondering will I still get OTA update of lollipop? One more thing I don't live in the States, would I get the OTA through Google or AT&T or do I have to manually install it ? . Thanks

Yes you will still get lollipop, if you use ota you will lose root and the bloat will come back, also the ota will come through att on your phone, if you want lollipop now i recommend installing CM12, i did and i love it

Thanks so it really doesn't matter if I live in states or in Asia ? Still will get the OTA update through AT&T? I dont have AT&T contract I think this phone was unlocked when I bought it. CM 12 is stable ? can you pls give me the direct link for it ? Or should I wait for the OTA from AT&T (which is still hard to believe that will get the update from them since I live in Asia not the USA). Thanks

Its got some bugs, id wait until theyre sorted out, and since you live in Asia id recommend flashing Cloudy G3 as its based off the international rom, and soon he should update it to lollipop, also i wouldnt flash the ota from ATT as you could lose root and most important Bump,
Hello all, so lollipop is finally released from the atnt website
is it possible for someone to catch it and make it available for a manual update like the previous 20c - 20y update. Most people use other sim cards on the device.

That would be great, I also use the D800 without an At&t sim card. I believe last time I used a TOT file and flashed it using LG FLash tool
yeah, but the tot file is definately not out
Yep, I just saw it today on the AT&T website and was about to come here and post the Lollipop news, but you beat me. Here's a link:
http://www.att.com/esupport/softwareUpdateArticle.jsp?sid=KB423381&cv=820
It would be super great if someone could extract the kernel from this official AT&T Lollipop. That way, T-Mobile users like me can flash the official T-Mobile Lollipop, then flash the AT&T Lollipop kernel, and lastly reboot. Hopefully, that will result in a D800 running official Lollipop with WiFi calling!

Question. Both my wife and I have LG G2s. Never rooted. I got the update to lollipop notification and updated. She didn't It doesn't even show up when she checks for updates. What gives?
Wondering if any Canadian Users have received an update yet? I'm with Telus, build number 7SQ8-UD80.
I'm running one I bought from Koodo. I'm on that same 7SQ8-UD80 build. Wondering if Alcatel pushes the updates, or if it'd need to go through carrier testing first.
If it needs to go through carrier testing, might take a while to get an update...that's if that carrier decides to bother putting money into testing an at all. Kind of early to know for sure though.
Might not hurt to ask Alcatel or your carrier via Twitter.
Any Canadians have update yet? I still haven't!
Just picked up one from Bell yesterday for my wife.
It didn't download any system updates. I didn't check the version number but she did experience that lag issue when clearing recent apps and wasn't too impressed with the camera quality. Hoping the update comes soon and at least fixes the camera quality. She also experienced a couple of FC's when trying to change the default notification sounds... Reboot fixed that.
I'm fairly certain the device is unlocked so I'm hoping the update can come directly from Alcatel and not have to go through the carrier.

Still no updates on mine. As for the Bell one being unlocked...it'd be best to verify it using a non Bell and non virgin sim card to test it. It'd be highly irregular for them to not lock it.
I bought mine unlocked from Amazon.com and use it on Wind mobile up here. Got the 7SQR-UER0 update OTA around a week ago.
Generally I have found it to be more responsive, scrolling lists in apps are smooth now instead of stuttering every time. Haven't really tested the camera quality though.
My DTTW is awful I hope they push the update soon!
I have emailed telus and Alcatel at PR.NA(at)alcatelonetouch.com to see if there's an ETA or update coming anytime soon
Hopefully we hear something back
Hope we hear something back to. Seems like everyone else has the update already!

In the system updates checker what firmware does it show you having? I'm asking all these questions because if it's similar to the usa firmwares then you could download the twrp backups provided of the os with all updates and flash to your device. Details on the project are here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/idol-3/general/want-to-able-to-install-ota-updates-t3163745 You'd be booting twrp and doing a restore instead of a backup but same basic process.

When it comes to emailing TELUS, you'd be better off asking their social media team..so Twitter or Facebook. Email probly won't help, or will get you a very generic answer.

I've used twrp before with root and custom ROMs but am I able to use it to flash the 6045i firmware without rooting or using twrp as the recovery?
If so has anyone else tried it?
Does Alcatel have software similar to Odin where I can load other ROMs without rooting?
So any updates yet Canadians, still nothing for me on Telus.
Still nothing on Koodo (same as Telus)
Any updates yet Canadians??
Nothing on Koodo/telus yet (not surprised)
Has anyone gotten a useful reply from their carrier yet?

Hey guys,
If anyone's interested, my P9 just received the OTA for L09C636B361. This is on an unlocked/unbranded Australian handset. Obviously, I've immediately started the download...
Time to start mashing that "Check for Updates" button if you're in Australia I guess

Still nothing, sure I'll get something eventually..
i have the l09c34b140 and i live in australia (got it from virgin mobile australia on plan). is there anyway for me to convert to yours?
I am on EVA-L09C34B140 as well, heres hoping that we will get some Nougat goodness soon. I got Android 7 running no my old S4 and cant wait till the P9 officially gets an update.
I'm on the same EVA-L09C34B140 and also nothing yet. I bought my P9 outright, but it came with an annoying Optus boot and shutdown screen that I was hoping be rid of with an update, although I'm not too sure that'll be the case.

L09C34 is the Optus version, I got mine outright as well. I dont understand why Huawei will make an Australian model for Optus, a different model for Vodaphone and a unbranded model. They should of just made one model for all of Australia and a tool for carriers to put in their own boot animations.
Chances are, we will not get an update till Optus push through an update for this model. The model the OP has (L09C636), probably has his update pushed through by Huawei directly.
Ah, figures - a familiar story. I had the same issue with my old SG Note 2 which would have been waiting ages for an AU update via Telstra, but rooting it with a Nordic ROM saved me 18 months of waiting. I guess I have to suffer the Optus boot screen post-update though.

If I could practice on someone else's Optus-tainted P9 first I'd then give it a go on mine
The process appears rather more convoluted than my previous Android ROM flashing experience. I think I might wait a bit longer.
i'm on exactly the same firmware( C636B190, which is updated from B168 through OTA) as the OP had before receiving B361..
However I had received nothing.
I bought mine outright at JB HiFi and got the OTA on Thursday night - posted to Whirlpool as well. I received notification when I checked the update entry in settings. Not an early adopter nor rooted or downloaded via the HiCare app.
As for the different firmwares blame that on the carrier not Huawei - Optus, Telstra et al are always slow - best check their websites or ask their Twitter/FB accounts for the timeframe.
Loving the updated EMUI 5.0. :laugh:
Unbranded Australian C636 here and still on B190, check for updates button nearly getting worn out!!
Got the Nougat update last night. Notification details are very hard to read. Almost white on white text. Anyone else got this, or knows how to fix it?

@Tecalote is working on the Nougat version of the NewWorld rom. Chances are, he will probably release this before Optus roll out the EMUI 5.0 update. If you really want EMUI 5.0, you can always flash L09C636B361 via the Huawei tools, then it will be a debranded AU version.

You are behind a couple of updates. For some reason mine wouldn't find updates either, heres how i fixed it. Go to https://www.att.com/devicehowto/tut...tep_KM1203359?make=Samsung&model=SamsungG955U and find which update you are on, and figure out which comes next, you have to do them in order. Then go to https://samsung.firmware.science and select your model, baseband and the baseband you need to update to, which you can find on the att site. Then just flash via recovery and adb. Beware however, that it erases everything off your phone.
