I am unable to receive OTA updates AT&T updates as I moved from US to India. - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5

I have moved to India from US and since then I haven't received any updates to android system software. I am still using KitKat when all discussions are about Marshmallow. I am unable to figure out a way to find offline copies of the updates. Could some body help me out here.

Since you still on KitKat you could root. If you don't care about that, there is a thread on here about updating from .zip file.

you could also flash 5.1.1 using Odin and the files from this thread

Downloaded. Wouldn't install. Now not showing as available or on the phone at all. Great!!
Android 5.0 system update downloading too
Hey Mick,
Im in the UK too and had the system update available pop up and are now downloading the 479.5mb file.
My Nexus was also purchased sim free and is running stock rom with root courtesy of cf autoroot.
Now to decide if to install it straight away or not. I need to read the other posts regarding losing root and how to maintain phone and app data.
Received it lastnight and updated immediately. Very happy with it apart from the lockscreen music widget removed by Google.
My wife's N5 OTA just arrived this evening and has completed its update.
I've Sideloaded mine on day one.[emoji12]

We already have a thread about receiving the OTA: http://forum.xda-developers.com/google-nexus-5/general/recieved-ota-t2939041
As OTA rollouts aren't location specific, I don't see the need for another thread.

Nexus 6 5.1 OTA Update Start?

Has the 5.1 update been pushed out to phones yet? I know we can manually download and install but it seems like this update is taking longer than usual to be sent out to phones for those of us too lazy to manually update.

Help with Motorola razr i xt890 please
Hello everyone,
I am on this forum because my phone (I have a Motorola razr i xt890) stopped working and I am trying to find a way to fix it.
I unlocked the bootloader hoping to be able to reinstall the OS but so far I have failed to do it.
Could someone here please help me to reinstall the OS?
I have download the Blur_Version.91.2.26001.XT890.Retail.en.EU.zip ota files but I don't know how to out them on the phone..
I tried loading them via rsd lite 6.1.6 and got the following error message:
Please check the input file. Either XML format is wrong or image files associated with it are missing
Thank you all in advance
First of all, that file is not a firmware file. It is an upgrade file. That file is useless for what you want.
Before your problem were you on 4.4.2 kitkat? Or 4.1.2 jellybean?
You need to download the firmware that is the same or newer than what you were using.

Help with Motorola razr i xt890 please
Hi there,
Thank you for your reply. I had 4.4.2 kitkat which did make everything go really slow before eventually killed the phone.
The upgrade was done automatically..
So I can I restore my phone?
I don't mind having another version on Android as the phone is no longer under waranty
Currently there is no official 4.4.2 full image leaked currently. There are 3 options.
1) Wait till an official 4.4.2 image is leaked. It may never happen.
2) Hope some kind soul who has 4.4.2 will be able to backup the stock partitions into a flashable image. I don't have 4.4.2 installed, so I can't. Again may never happen if nobody steps up to do it.
3) Risk it and flash a 4.1.2 image and then upgrade to 4.4.2 again. But this one is risky, it could brick the phone if you downgrade... we don't know if anyone has tried it yet.

Is there a Retail.en.GB version anywhere?
I can not update mine with the OTA as it fails on Installing.
It get to 1/4 to a 3rd then Android Bot has a Red sign on it.
Motorola have been useless and want me to pay to have it sent to them to look at it?
Sometimes it's hard to get an image-ROM.
Here I've found the original OTA Update for XT890 EU (4.1.2 to 4.4.2):
Blur_Version.91.2.26001.XT890.Retail.en.EU.zip
download
Please, if you found an suitable 4.1.2 base ROM and told it to me, I would be very happy. Mostly the links you'll find won't work anymore. It's an old Phone...
I crashed my phone using the RazRi_JB_X-2014-Nov-BFQ-v7r6_F.zip from this threat
Here is a bunch of firmwares for our phone:

T-mobil MRA68K to MRA68X

I have a Nexus 6 bought directly from Motorola but with a T-mobil sim from my
last phone. I'm running the MRA68K factory image of 6.0., and have never been
offered an OTA update.
Let me tell you what I THINK I know.
Although MRA68K does include the T-mobile band 12 and wifi calling feature,
for some reason T-mobil was not happy with it due to some bug revealed
in testing. MRA68X is the release they are happy with, and is what T-mobil
users running 5.1.1 are getting OTA. This OTA is not usable for phones running
any of the 6.0 release. There currently is no factory image for MRA68X.
Here is what I don't know:
- Will MRA68X be eventually released as a factory image.? Usually that comes
before not after the OTA. If not it would seem the need to flash a 5.1.1 image
to be able to take the MRA68X OTA.
- Is the T-mobil specific release a one time thing, or will there be a sequence of
T-mobil specific releases as in 5.X?
- I presume that when the phone checks for an update it bases it on the carrier's
SIM. Just curious, is it Google downloading the update but subject to the carrier's
instructions?

I have run all the MRA builds (K, N, R) on T-Mobile and they all support and have fully functioning WiFi calling, Band 12 support, and VoLTE. Not sure what's specific about X but I decided to switch to it just because it's "official".

How did you switch? Did you flash a 5.1.1 factory image and then take the OTA?

For X I flashed the factory ProFi 5.1.1 then sideloaded the 48I to 58X OTA.
T-Mobile and ProFi will both use X.

Looks like if you are on K you will get the X updated OTA

According to the T-mobile document
https://support.t-mobile.com/docs/DOC-18109
It's only the L* releases that can be updated with the OTA.

I don't see where it says *only* L releases get the update but it may just be a matter of semantics.
"To be able to update to the current software version, the below requirements must be met:"
^^^ I take this to mean that you must have at least L to get the update. If you are on M already then you still meet that requirement. That's just my thoughts though. Dez is always in the know and that's what he said. Guess we'll just have to wait and see.
i am completely unable to install mra58x no matter how i try to sideload the update from 5.1.1

It confused me.

I noticed that your signature says "Nexus 6 rooted". If that is in fact the case, you will not be able to install any OTA. Neither via sideloading nor "over the air". The installer looks at the system file, and if there is ANY change from stock (including being rooted), it will abort the install. I've had it fail, even with a couple of apps frozen.
It looks like the document
https://support.t-mobile.com/docs/DOC-18109
has been updated. It now list MRA68K as eligible for the OTA to MRA68X. Earlier
it just listed the L* releases.

yeah tried on a clean flash without root, still not luck
i installed mra58k clean rom from the andriod dev page until someone makes an X rom
Wow
And for those with MRA58N currently, there was a hint that TMO would OTA push MRA58X as well.
I am starting to think that was Des speaking before he had the details

Wishing it was Marshmallow
But its Just a Security update with Feb Android Security Patch
Android version: 5.1.1
Baseband version: G900AUCU4CPA2
Kernel version: 3.4.0-5869384
Build number: LMY47X.G900AUCS4CPA2

do you have the update.zip file that you can share? by default it is a .cfg file but if we rename it to .zip we can do the update via recovery

My active updated today, May Force.
I updated my s5 active yesterday morning.
Can someone on PA1 (or OI5) PLEASE try to locate the update URL so we can snag the file directly from AT&T? You don't need root to get the URL, but your phone needs to be connected to a computer BEFORE you download the OTA file. It basically involves checking logs to find the proper link.
There's several articles out there for finding the Update URL. This would be a tremendous help to forum members overseas who just want stock updates.
Read on another forum that this is the April 2016 security patch FYI.

Just got it on my AT&T GS5 here in the Kansas City area. Got all excited... For about 1/2 a second. Until I read that it is a security update. Sigh. Oh marshmallow, you are awesome on my (significantly) older Nexus 7 tablet. When will you arrive for my S5??
