So if I had my phone unlocked and took it to T-Mobile, in all likelihood I would not be getting updates. Sent from my Pearly White Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 EdgeHmm, thanks for this.

On Verizon, you might also be able to use the update utility to get the update On Verizon, my old s3 which was unlocked couldn't get the OTA until I popped in my Verizon sim. They were able to go to Samsung inside best buy to get the update. Unfortunately this isn't true.I know someone with an att note 4 unlocked, but couldn't get the update from att. My advice for the future is to buy a Nexus if you want the fastest OS updates. you don't have to be connected to the carrier's network to get the OS update. you could even be on WIFI and be eligible for and receive an OS update. software talks to software - the dumb pipe is irrelevant. the OS/software on the phone talks to the carrier server's software and vice versa - regardless of how you are connected to the internet. I'm reading comments on an article now where people are complaining about Verizon not seeing any updates yet.the connection type to the internet doesn't matter. So AT&T would be the one to push the update down to their customers, right? And if this is the case would you have to have a AT&T branded phone, or would the updates also go to customers using a T-Mobile S6 on their network?Īgain maybe I'm misunderstanding here, but I didn't think simply being connected to the internet would qualify me for receiving an update. Maybe I'm not understanding this correctly, but I thought the updates are pushed down by the mobile service providers.
