Unlocked phones usually have a problem with updates as they don't look in the proper place for the update, one of the problem with unlocked phones.

Hi @AimeryIMat
I’d be happy to help with your software update!
Have you tried updating via Samsung Kies? If you download and install Samsung Kies 3 to your computer, you can update your device directly from that software. Once installed simply connect your device to your computer via USB and if an update is available, you will see a “Firmware Upgrade” button. By clicking this button, the update will be downloaded and applied to your device.
Alternatively, Samsung offer a support booth called Samsung Experience at select BestBuy locations which can update your device for you to the correct and latest firmware. To find the nearest Samsung Experience, please click here.
I hope this helps!
Thanks,
Charise

You might have lucked-out afterall.
Android 5.0 Lolipop has very negatively affected the phone for most AT&T Note 3 folks I know (including me).
Idle RAM use by OS went up 30-40% while battery life went down about the same.
Needless to say many folks are extremely disappointed.
If you can find 4.4.4 out there it's your best bet. It was very stable, BUT you have to put up with Uber and other apps being forced on your phone (that you can't delete).

have you cleared your cache? have you done a factory reset?
In the case of this person since they are not on the ATT they will not get updates.

The downside to someone not being able to download and install updates is that they will eventually find that they're limited on apps that will work on their phone's older OS. As time passes, their expensive phone will become progressively more limited. That doesn't sound very lucky to me.
