I think the reason they pulled it off yesterday was because it was bricking some phones and they should fix it but im not sure yet

so has anyone that's updated yesterday done today's update?

Yeah, it showed up for me, too. I saw it was bigger and wondered what that could have added in to add 8mbs. It's just code and a few images.

Perhaps a full radio update, I believe people were saying yesterday only some parts of the radio were updating, specifically WIMAX.

i updated
i did the update...im not rooted, never was rooted. and it did not brick my phone. some of the applications changed possition in the "all apps tab" theres a new feature in the menu/settings/audio visual/image out-480/720p. the screen looks smoother overall. particularly in my home screen where the icons are theres a shadow back to the name of each the widgets making it look alot more smooth to the rest of the screen. touch control seems to be alot better when grounding...and will update on battery life since everybody has been saying its alot better aswell. theres also a option to lower the ringtone volume when moving the phone(relies on g-sensor) ill keep playing with it and post more

Fontucky - Good'ol trailer people JK.

does anyone know where the downloaded update zip files are stored?
i canceled the second 21.4MB download earlier, because im already updated and i know thats the "brick update"
i wanna find that unfinished .zip on my phone and delete it?
Anyone know where its stored??

Has anyone applied this update that previously applied yesterday's update?

Anyone? Bueller?

i just manually checked for an update and says no new updates/already updated
so i dont think you can double up on the update unless you have already downloaded it for a second time and just waiting to reinstall/brick your phone.

I also had this on my previous gs2, with my new one the update again showed and this time a camera firmware update was available.
P.s there was nothing wrong with the previous one, apart from the guy at p4u sold me there demo phone, which after a week started to grate me, so I took it back and got a new one. Sad I know, but when you pay £499 you want new ;-)

Mine says there's an update everyday but nothing shows and its really annoying.

No never had or seen it, when I first used Samsung Apps it updated the App software but that's it. Now I get this update message everyday then says no data on the screen and when I click on the New tab it just lists apps.
Oh and I never even see the 1 update available message as shown in the screenshot I just get the alert in the notifications area.

I think if you guys go to that Samsung app store, find "accuweather widget" and install it (even though you already have one, that one in the Samsung Market will say "new install", not "update").
Your update prompt will then disappear. I think this is related to a bug in how the Samsung Market links installed apps to updates.
Be warned though that new/updated widget changed a lot. But you can always roll back updates right in Samsung market app.
can anyone confirm what I described is true?

I can confirm this. I also got this update message showing, but when I clicked it, there was no update visible. Anyway, somehow I managed to install the update and it indeed seemed to be Accuweather. Only thing is that it did overwrite the stock widget with another widget. I liked the stock widget more, so I uninstalled Accuweather and the stock widget returned.

Also I looked through the apps and there's a new version of kies air so I installed that.

WIFI Calling now available

This morning I received an ota that enables wifi calling. It's about time AT&T gave us this feature. Not sure what else was in the ota but I'm sure they patched the security holes that everyone has been talking about lately. There's no information available yet but as soon as I find it I'll post it. Screenshots show ota software version and wifi calling.

AT&T cloud backup for SMS/MMS with default messaging app. It was syncing all day on my BFs G5 until I turned it off after work. He said it kept killing his battery. (I'd hate to see what the data is on his line too thankfully he was home on Wifi the majority of the day) It completely borked MMS on my S7 edge when AT&T pushed the update, had to install Google messenger to get a picture to come through or be received. It probably failed 70-80% of the time. May want to keep an eye on that if you use the default messaging app.

Has anyone figured out if you can disable this entirely unnecessary and incredibly annoying persistent notification about "mobile data not enabled" now? I didn't want to update and now I'm forced to deal with this ****. No.

New Verizon update - G950USQU1AQD9

Woke up this morning and it was ready to be installed.
Link to update details - https://www.verizonwireless.com/support/samsung-galaxy-s8-update/
The answering calls with volume up button seems weird - who was asking for that??
Also I must not have noticed but in the app switcher/multitasking there's a little button that let's you expand an app to full screen right there - was that there before? After this update a little prompt came up too tell me about it so could have been there before and not noticed it.

Verizon Galaxy S8 software update pushing through 4/21
Verizon S8 software update from NRD90M.G950USQU1AQC8 to NRD90M.G950USQU1AQD9
Changes:
- Apps optimized for infinity display
- Answer calls without touching screen - use volume up key
- Camera App Icon has new look
- Notification badges are same color across the device
- Latest Security Updates for 7.0
I'm postponing my update until further notice

Anyone take this yet?

It disables Bixby remapping.

I took it, everything seems the same to me.

Im waiting just in case, I know from past experiences I dont want any early updates just in case of a bootloader unlock that gets patched.

Not taking any chances on updates for a long time.

Any chance this update screws over the 1% chance this phone gets root?

It does not. I use the latest update and keep getting DQA keeps closing. I have my bibxy button remapped on this update.

Lucky you. Since I've taken the update, I have no DQA problems, but I now have to use one of those special bixby remapping apps because the update has removed my ability to intercept the bixby button signal.

I think there must be some sort of app conflict on the devices getting the DQA force closing issues. I have never seen it a single time on my device.

I've updated the DQA app and haven't had any issue yet. It only popped up for me once and I just disabled it but re enabled it to get the update.

does anyone know if there is a U firmware without bloatware,same like with the s7 ans s7E... i have the verizon one and i like the U firmware for the s7 that i also have and now is just an unlocked s7 no bloatware no garbage lol thanks in advance,,,

If it is an app conflict I am pretty sure it is with a stock app. I applied the update right out of the box (before installing anything else) and was rewarded with the DQA issue. I didn't do much research on the problem as I took it back/exchanged it because it had the red/pink screen issue referenced here. It seems that the update was hastily thrown out to address the tint issue and they may have overlooked some things during testing considering the wide number reporting the DQA issue.

Yup. I had the Bixby button remapped to work as the back key.
After the update, all in one gestures doesn't work for me anymore. Now when I press the Bixby button nothing happens (which is still better than launching the useless Bixby app).
~John

Not only that, but none of the Bixby button remap apps work for me either.
I have tried 2 different apps & the button still does absolutely nothing (which is STILL better than accidentally opening the useless Bixby every time I meant to lower the volume LOL)

i need to flash this from my G950U1 firmware. I have Bixby voice, I wonder if this has more?

thank you for the update

FYI - I'm running T-mobile on the unlocked S8+. Didn't think that I would get tmo updates, but it actually worked (had to manual check for the update). Mine just finished installing the OTA.

Downloaded this last night. Was trying to use the camera and kept getting a "system UI" crash notice. Phone started overheating really bad, to the point it was hot to the touch. I immediately shut it off, and left it on the ground for awhile, in case it decided to pull a Note 7. Turned it back on after 30 min, and camera works, but the phone started heating up again. Turned it back off for awhile. Started it up again, closed all apps, and so far it's okay. If you download, please keep an eye on it.

try taking out the sd-card and try the camera again using the internal sd... then try putting the sd-card in again to see what happens..
I would hate to say, maybe u have to do a factory reset, and see if that helps.. last resort...

I took the update last night,no overheating or issues,think root for our device is a long ways away as well....so who is getting the note 8?hopefully that comes with the ability to root

Heads up. Bixby button mappers are blocked from working with this update.

The update broke the built in Digits app. Support had me download and install the Digits app from the Play Store and said that it is now required. Anyone else?
Edit: It was not the OTA that broke built in Digits support. Wiping cache and loging out and then back in to my account fixed the issue. It appears that timing of the OTA and me noticing that Digits was not working was coincidence..

That's not cool, I don't like the digit app. You will end up having 2 notifications for each text or call you get.

I edited my post above. Turns out that it was not the OTA that broke Digits.

This update has wrecked my battery life. Android System is consistently beating out screen by a factor of 2x for the amount of battery utilization , even after several reboots. Disappointing that an official OTA has made me go from singing this phone's praises to hating it within a couple of days. And no, I don't want to do a factory reset and then spend hours setting everything back up, those days were supposed to be gone the moment they prevented us from rooting and installing custom roms.

Update: The issue I had was happening in any app, whenever I'd turn the phone to landscape mode. I did some research, and found someone in the Sprint S8 forum had the issue as well, and was able to fix it by simply changing the navigation button order, then switching it right back. Haven't had any issues with overheating since Saturday, but battery has been meh since the update.
