The T is T-Mobile, right? I don't think TMo pulls the stunt of requiring connection to the carrier to receive the update, so as far as I know you should get it.

T mobile. Yes. And thanks for answering.

T-mobiles unlocked phone do get the update when everyone else does. They are slow at releasing the updates though. Don't count on it being soon

This is as close as you will ever get to an answer. Click on the Note 4 on this page.

Currently says "manufacturer development", which means T-Mo isn't even claiming they have it in their hands yet.

These web pages are notoriously unhelpful, unfortunately, until the software is actually released. A week after the update is installed for everyone, the web page will probably update to "Completed!".

Given that the only US carriers to have it (Sprint, Verizon, US Cellular) are all CDMA, I suspect there is some issue holding it back from GSM (AT&T, T-Mobile, Straight Talk) implementation. This might also explain why Sprint had it before even the unlocked (GSM) version.

Yeah all ready have been to that page. Another question tho. If I take my phone to at&t or tmobile store sprint. Etc. Can or will they update my phone. Even fora fee?

After they've released the update, they'd probably update it for you for free even if you no longer have service directly through them.

Or if you know of someone with a carrier SIM, ask to borrow it for an hour once the update is out.
