[Resolved] Updating Samsung galaxy s5 active Help - General Questions and Answers

Hi I have not really a problem but a question I recently bought a ATT sim card and put money on it so I can update my s5 active because I have cricket but it went from 4.4.4 to 5.1.1 and it keeps getting updates basically it is downloading and installing 3 years worth of security patches and marshmallow and I’ve got it from 4.4.4 to 5.1.1 pb1 and it is currently been like an hour still downloading a software update and I’m wondering if I can download them at once?

Actually you can do it by flashing the whole system again with the newest version through odin but this will cause a factory reset

Problem with Galaxy S4-I9505 not accessing Network

Hi there,
First of all my galaxy S4 international version suddenly stopped reading or accessing the cellular network after updating from 4.2.2 to 4.3.
Note that: I bought my mobile from Kuwait and i am currently relocated to Egypt.
I heard about the Regional locking samsung did but i don't know if this is the issue or what?
So if you could help me to revert/downgrade back to 4.2.2 to get rid of this new feature samsung added to the new 4.3?!
btw I am currently on cyanogenmod 10.2
please any help would be appreciated.
Thank you,
Mohamed

The ragional locking should be mentioned on device's original box.
Are you unable to make/receive calls, or getting 'network unavailable' message?
If true- try to flash stock rom available for your country in sammobile etc.
If not- try to reconfigure your APN settings depending on your carrier,
Or try to find appropriate flashable modem in I9505 thread

Nope, as of now there are no de-bloated firmwares available for the US versions.

I do have a G930P and I did flash it with a G930U FW which doesn´t have any company bloatware, phone works better than before, mine was unlocked since I bought it and I'm using it with a Mexico SIM with no problems.
Please check this post in the S7 AT&T section:

Help!!! How to root SM-N915A running on Marshmallow 6.0.1

XDA, would it be possible to look into rooting a Samsung Note Edge (SM-N915A) with Marshmallow 6.0.1. I've tried different things, but there doesn't seem to be a process for this phone with that OS.
2nded!
Is there a way to root the 915T already updated to 6.0.1 dpj2 (October update)?
Root SM-N915A? Please?
I have discovered that the bootloader on my SM-N915A (ATT) Note Edge is locked up tight. I am very eager to root this phone, as I have had it since release and I have yet to use it to its full potential. Perhaps a bounty (like Verizon's Note Edge)? Is anyone interested in cracking open this bootloader?

Verizon S6 running G920VVRS4CPL3

I recently switched my S6 from Verizon to T-Mobile. Can I flash the T-Mobile firmware on this phone?

In short no. The closest to what your thinking is like having a s7edge and instead of running your providers firmware, in your case (T-Mobile) but you got a Verizon phone, you could download and run the "unlocked firmware" for the phone. In this example it'd be SM-G935U if say you had a SM-G935R4(U.S. Cellular), I know you can also flash other providers to the s7edge like verizon to a us cellular phone. Don't think it flys with the s6 like that though.
That's what I kind of figured. Verizon has their phones extremely locked down but figured I would ask before I tried and bricked it. Thanks for the imput and help.
