I see another Software Update OTA on my unlocked 850M.
IF this update is 850MUBU1BOB2 I want it !
IF this update is Lollipop I do NOT want it !
How can I tell before I enable Download ?
I downgraded back to KK after LP automatically updated. I can't remember which KK file I downgraded to, but it was different than the original one. Finally figured out the original one and downgraded to that.
If both of our SM-G850M came with the same software version--and I'm betting they did--my guess is that you won't like the newer KK version either. It's not as, "artistic" as the original.

Okay I'm wanting to unroot my S3 since I never actually use any root features and I'd much prefer to receive OTA updates when they're finally pushed than have to Odin flash the latest version each time it's released. My problem is I can't for the life of me figure out what the latest firmware is. My phone is on 4.1.2 XXELLA which I thought was the latest since my cousins unrooted phone is also on that but now I've read that XXELLB and XXELLC are later versions. Can someone just tell me what the latest version is?

Thanks for that. Just plugged it into Kies and it shows the same software version as being available. It's willing to upgrade my phone despite it being modified. Is this recommended or should I avoid doing it?
Its fine to do it.
I had my M8 rooted and decided to go back to good ole stock. I got it back to stock, S-on, stock recovery and everything is dandy. I went to run updates and the phone ran a new update. Now it says I'm on software 4.4.2 software 1.58 and that there are no more updates available.
Now I heard 4.4.4 got pulled, but why won't it go to 4.4.3?
Thanks for any help!
I'm reading around and it sounds like 4.4.2 is actually the latest software for the ATT M8.
Can someone else confirm that this is in fact true...
It's true. 4.4.2 is latest official version. AT&T pulled the 4.4.3 update due to reported battery drain issues. You can flash the RUU for 4.4.3, which does NOT have any battery issues here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/att...-2-23-502-3-bootable-ruu-pc-required-t2860486
Thanks so much. Crazy! Oh well. Looks like I'm fine. Waiting for lollipop update in a bit!
Thanks!
With how AT&T has been handling updates with this phone . You might be better off flashing the developers version of the software . Sorry but more and more M8's on other carriers have made it to 4.4.4 and soon to be 5.0 . Yet AT&T , is unable to do what their competition is capable of ? Yes Im aware that HTC needs to make the updates but its usually the carriers screwing around with the update that drags it out if it gets released at all .
I bought htc one m8 from e-bay (at&t unlocked) when I was USA. That at&t apps are really annoying and I didnt get the lollipop update. I wanted to update the rom by myself and delete the at&t apps. And now I rooted + unlocked bootloader and installed android revoulation 5.0.1 lollipop rom. I can't use wifi + I cant reboot the phone (it stucks at white HTC screen). I didn't flash firmware because s-on still. So I need really simple and detailed information about what to do. Can anyone pm me about it or explain in comments?
There is not Lollipop update for AT&T yet.
And if you aren't on AT&T's network you won't get any OTAs either. AT&T is fairly unique in this regard, other versions will update regardless of what carrier you are connected to.
For most Lollipop ROMs, you will find your WiFi is broken due to wrong (old) firmware. Your options:
1) A couple Lollipop Sense ROMs (LeeDroid?) seem to work with 4.4.4 firmware. But if your firmware is older than 4.4.4, I don't think any Lollipop Sense ROMs will work.
2) Revert to a ROM version that supports your firmware. For instance, if you are still on 4.4.4 firmware, install a stock or custom 4.4.4 Sense ROM.
3) S-off and update your firmware "manually".
I have a T-Mobile S5 that I got for a really great price that is unlocked and currently running on the ATT network. I cant update it from either carrier and I would like to know how to update it to the latest lollipop update available. I have been looking for awhile and cannot find any definitive answer to which firmware I should use. Android 4.4.2 baseband version G900TUVU1ANCH

Hello, and thank you for using XDA Assist!
If Knox got tripped, that would prevent you from getting OTA. Not sure if being on a different carrier would do it for that phone as well.
At any rate, I am connecting this thread to the forum your device experts can be found:

If you are rooted and want to keep root, update via Muniz_Ri's rooted stock ROM. I would however, advise you to wait a little while. The current Rooted stock rom is based on firmware version OG6, Android version 5.1.1, and it's pretty buggy.
Soon Muniz_ri will update his rooted stock ROM to the latest firmware, OJ4, which is much more stable.
If you don't care about rooting, just download the OJ4 firmware and install using ODIN.
