Galaxy S7 Edge Noutgat 7.0 Beta!

http://www.sammobile.com/2016/11/04/samsung-starts-android-nougat-beta-test-galaxy-s7-edge-uk/
Get ready, you know the drill (assuming is the same as last year for the S6) stock BTU ROM and Beta application installed, get ready to register your device and we should hace the beta soon (hopefully)

"Server error, please try again later" when accessing the "Registration" menu item from the Galaxy Beta Program...
Edit: You probably need a BTU (aka UK unbranded) ROM. I am too lazy to install one right now, but good luck to those who will. Please don't forget to report on battery life and AOD 3rd party notifications support

Same. Though ill flash the first official update after the beta for sure.

@developers: Would it be feasible to create a flashable ROM from this beta firmware? Thanks
Judging by how stable and snappy all the current Note 7 port ROMs are, I'm pretty sure this beta will be awesome

Samsung haven't started it yet, that's why people can't register yet

Do we flash BTU with ODIN?

I was using XEU last year with the S6 edge. Worked like a charm with marshmallow.

No luck with xsg

I get this message when opening the app. Hopefully we see servers up this coming week

So...just flash BTU and install the apk?

Basically yes, and then register your Samsung account in the beta program, but still, that's not a guarantee that you will be selected for the beta

Last year i use the same method for install Beta on my S6 and it isn't for a close number of people, i remember

UAE XSG S8 - Samsung Pay?

I bought a S8 that has XSG csc from UAE. With my S7 I was able to reflash the csc/rom to make Samsung Pay work in United States.
Is this possible with S8?
When I open Samsung Pay it gives advertisement "Samsung Pay is only available in the UAE"
My service is AT&T

Download the Samsung Pay 2.7.03 apk.

Doesn't work on my S8.
I have the Panama version, TPA and using it in US with AT&T sim card.
The app will launch now, YAY!!!
I scan in a credit card with the camera, enter in the CVC code, expiration and zip code and then it tries to verify card and I get the "connection to server failed" message.
I thought this post was too good to be true.
Oh well back to the drawing board.

Having played with CSCs and Samsung Pay for my S8 and S7 Edge there are options but with compromises.
BTU firmware fast updates no white pages.
XSG firmware no white pages at least on my edge phones moderately quick updates but Ramadan shows up in the calendar.
XSA firmware slow updates white pages works Samsung pay updates through the play store and MST function works.

I have the same issue, and tried to download the 2.7.0.3 framework APK, but get a "The package appears to be corrupt" error when trying to install it.
I'm guessing this is because I already have a newer version installed. When looking into the version installed, there's no "Uninstall" button to either remove the app, or even just remove some updates.
Any suggestion please ?
Thanks in advance !

its not framework. only the Samsung Pay app should be 2.7.03. Framework must be left stock. if you modified the framework you must wipe phone and start over

S8+ Oreo beta - XEU [SOLVED]

I've searched through all the threads but none answered my question. I have an S8+ with XEU/XEU/VOD and have applied for the beta.
Am I even eligible for the update/will I get it?
In recovery and the samsung info app it says that my CSC is XEU, but there is still the VOD at the end...
SOLVED: If you are not getting the Oreo update but you have registered for beta, CLEAN flash either August or September firmware (through ODIN, no KNOX tripping, both available on sammobile) and the Oreo 8.0 update will be waiting for you straight away!

I don't know then, that's what happened to me anyway as you can see from the screen shot in post 2 xeu/xeu/h3g and that was after flashing xeu firmware and the csc (not the home_csc)

The 3rd line of the csc will stay the same unless you have another sim afaik.

You cannot change the last value. That's a hardware that can only be changed with root

Well damn. Thanks for the help guys, appreciate it.
Will wait for someone to drop the update file so I can flash it through ODIN. Do you think anyone has it yet? Cheers.

Interesting, you're on the September security patch. I'm on October.
Someone was also saying to downgrade and then try to update to oreo. I already have it downloaded so once I get home I'll clean flash the September FW and try to download the beta. Cheers mate!

Where'd you manage to find the september FW? I'm struggling to find a link. This is my plan too. I'm on the latest BTU Firmware at the moment, registered for the beta but no update has come through and it's been over 24 hours. If you could link me I'd be very grateful!

Legend! Thank you.

Could it be that the 5000 UK registrations have ended and that's why no download is presented?

Samsung s7 edge sm G935T firmware update?

Hi,
I have recently bought Samsung s7 edge T mobile unlocked , but it not showing update. The last updated was android 6.0.1 on November 1st, 2016. I have also tried to connected with smart switch pc app but it's not showing any update either. I want to update my device with official firmware so that it will update automatically and regularly. I'm in Pakistan.
I have seen on Sam mobile to update via Odin. I want to know is this official update? I have not rooted and don't want to get rooted , I want to keep it official.
Thank you

WEIRD is knox tripped ?

Could be that the unlock was not done officially by the carrier, and it tripped KNOX or the OTA security bit.

I've been looking for a reputable download for the SM-G935T G935TUVS4BQJ2 firmware. For some reason T-Mobile does not have a download link now.

Phone is alive again! Rooted, mildly debloated BQJ2 firmware (by mildly I mean, some sammy apps, LookOut, and T-mobile app removed)
Of note, Substratum made my phone lag for some reason, even with the governors set correctly and whatnot. Will try clearing cache on the app and then clear cache in recovery and see if it works better. The whole reason I had to reflash is that for some reason when I accidentally changed the GPU governor in Kernel Adiutor, it broke Play store.

Can anyone help with this. After updating to QBJ2, it won't detect network anymore, keeps searching!
Anyone got a fix please?

I have virus
What I have to do?

One Beta official US release Live!!

1. Install samsung+ app from play store and register your note 8 device. You should then see a Galaxy Note 8 device in your account or homepage of the app
2. Go to play store again and on the Samsung + app page scroll down to join beta program for the app
3. Update the app to beta version (11.5.0.1)
4. Restart phone or clear app data and open the Samsung + app again. This time the app will look visually different because it's the beta version of the app
5. The banner should appear just on the homepage below the your note8 model info. Register using that link.
6. After about 5 mins or so. Go to settings- software update and check for updates. You should have the one ui beta update pushed to your device. About 1.5 gigs.
No issues with samsung gear, spay, or Netflix. Confirmed that night mode and Dolby are present

Just to add you need to be on unlocked us firmware n950u

never mind

In the google play store look for Samsung plus. Scroll down the in the app description and sign up to become a beta tester of the samsung plus app. It will then you give you the option to download the updated version of samsung +. Once down you should have access. That or you can do a search for the apk 11.5.0.1

It's still only giving me the 10.21.2.0 from Sept 2018 to download, anyone else experience this after joining beta?

I had the same issue until I flashed the csc file in Odin (not mome_csc). That's if you flashed the unlocked firmware to try to get the beta. After that I unregistered then re-registered for the beta and the download appeared.

Hello and thank you for this nugget of information. I have a 950U purchased from Samsung and on T-Mobile. To confirm, if I was to reflash CRK1 via Odin, for the CSC field, I would need to select the CSC_OYN_N950UOYN5CRK1 file correct and not the 'HOME_CSC_OYN....' file?
Thank you!

I think its just for the unlock model 950u1 not the 950u
edit: we can flash 950u1 firmware on our 950u done and running last update. also got rid of that annoying tmobile boot screen

I ended up reverting to CRK1 and it shows me the updated version of Samsung+ available now so I suspected this was the issue. Running through the steps now to get the beta installed.

EDIT: No luck as I suspected since I'd have to be on CRL2 for it to work, I'm just going to do a fresh install of the DRL7 for now.
