Hey guys, I unrooted/restored my 5.0.1 stock with the unroot/restore tool - to get the 5.1.1 OTA for my ATT H950, do I need to use a SIM card or can I just use LG PC Suite without a SIM in the phone? My SIM is currently in another phone, so I am wondering if I need to switch it out to get 5.1.1.
I believe you need the att sim in to do OTA.

I have a Galaxy S6 Edge 925T Android version 5.02 and my provider is T-mobile.
Before installing custom ROM should I get a SIM card from T-mobile (mine is too big does not fit) and then upgrade my phone to Stock Android 5.11 via settings page.
OR
Skip going to t-Mobile and just install TWRP bootloader & modem to my stock 5.02. then flash my ROM (XXU2BOFJ V.2.0 Final Lollipop 5.1.1) Then bring my phone to t-Mobile and get a new SIM card.
Thank you

Why you don't cut your SIM... ? and them update to 5.1.1... with OTA or donwload your ROM from sammobile.com .... ?
I'm not sure if this is meant to be posted here, but I had the LG G Flex 2 H950 for about a week now and found out about the 5.1.1 update shortly after I bought it. Thing is, I bought it unlocked, so I'm not sure if I'm able to update it as OTA notifications do not show up and I'm not using the AT&T carrier (I'm not even sure if that matters).
Anyways, is there a way to update an unlocked H950? I have a Rogers plan in Canada that I am using currently with the phone.
If you are not using ATT and are not in USA, you will never get the OTA to update to 5.1.1
You must use a TOT or KDZ to upgrade the device to 5.1.1 Lollipop, here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/g-flex2/general/guide-lg-g-flex-2-stock-firmware-to-t3037593
You could use an att gophone sim to try and get the update. Gophones have roaming in Canada and mexico, so it should be possible.
I just purchased a Galaxy S7 SM-G930T online but I live in Canada and use the Koodo Network. I can put my Koodo sim in and it all works fine but I want to update it from 6.0.1 to Android 8, and it wont let me do it OTA if I dont have a T-Mobile sim. Can I download the stock T-Mobile Android 8 Firmware and flash it using Odin and still be able to use my Koodo sim or does flashing the stock firmware lock the phone?
Thanks

Hello, I have bought an LG Velvet ATT unlocked. I cannot update via OTA because I think it needs an ATT account and sim card for it to update via the ATT network but I live in Europe. Can I manually install the OTAs relesed by ATT (although I can't find any ATT ones) or do I have to flash another stock firmware that releses updates without a sim? Would it be possible to flash the Canadian android 11 stock firmware since it has the same model number than ATT LM-G900UM? Obviously the software version numbers are slightly different. I want to keep LGs software because I need it for the pen support.
Thanks in advance
