If you use a smartphone IMEI, the cheapest plan available is $30, but that doesn't matter because you aren't going to fund it. On the activation page, choose GoPhone and go through the process of entering the SIM ID, IMEI, zipcode and email address when prompted.Ĭhoose any plan when prompted. Put the SIM in the phone and go to the activation page at. Then I can activate it online but not have to pay for a plan? How does that actually work? Thanks!! I think the Samsung Rep in Bestbuy really didn't care about updating my phone. Thank you Yeswap! This is the info I was looking for.
The update servers will only let you download one update every 24 hours but you can set the phone's clock ahead by a day after each update if you don't want to wait. You will need to update multiple times to get to the latest version.
If you activate the SIM without adding funds it will be good for 30 days. If your Best Buy won't do the update, the easiest inexpensive way is to update it is to obtain an AT&T SIM and activate it on the GoPhone 25¢/minute plan. Most Best Buys have Samsung Experience representative who should have been able to update the phone to the latest release. Source: Software update for the Samsung Galaxy Note Edge (N915A) - AT&T. As Lahoot said above, the most recent of which is N915AUCS2DQE1 released on May 22, 2017. AT&T updated that model to Android 6.01 in September, 2016 and is still issuing monthly security updates. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using Tapatalk that phone is so old AT&T stopped updates long ago, certainly not 6.0 ! it took a year after 6.0 was out for AT&T to release a version for my Note 4 Best buy will only have updates if they have been released by AT&T.
