Latest ota update, anyone updated?
NO. didn't get it yet. when we getting Android 7.1.1 Nougat update ?
Mine stuck at September security patch. But there is no reason to update because of the bootloader locked up. So no downgrade to early firmware build. So let's be root!
Off topic - I've buy G735F and the battery gave me 1.5 hour more sot. Of course smaller display size and similar performance. The real upgrade is the waterproofing. No reason for me to keep it up. Sd slot isn't usable for me.

Hi guys.
A few days ago I made the update to version MMB29V, but I now constantly receive a new march update available warning (which It can't be done because I'm rooted and bootloader unlocked).
Followed Heinsenberg tutorial. I've done the previous update the same way and all went well.
That's because there's a newer build after MMB28V the 6.0.1 (MHC19I) build.
Really? Why did they came out almost at the same time?
The latest is actually angler-mhc19i-factory-fb2128bf which came out a few days after the march update. It makes the phone's performance much better, so you want it.
agreed. you definitely wanna update to the newest version. much better

They didn't come out at the same time, the MHC19I update came out a day or two later. MMB29V is just a security patch update, MHC19I contains much more.
Thanks guys!
Did the update yesterday night. :good:
Bought an unlocked S8 from Samsung I use AT&T for service. I wouldn't be opposed to flashing/odin'ing AT&T firmware. Currently on build NRD90M.G950U1UEU1AQH3 and the August 1st security patch. I'm unsure of the best path to get to an AT&T firmware.
Go to the att section. Find the qf7 firmware and flash it with Odin.
Go to the adb update from server thread. Download all the firmwares (starting with qf7 to whatever it is) and put them on your external storage. While on qf7 reboot into recovery and select install update from storage. Flash each one, after the last one wipe data/factory reset and reboot.
So to be clear, flash AQF7 in Odin. This will get me onto an AT&T specific SM-G950U (<-- Not U1) ROM that I can then sideload the updates onto? Is sideloading the ADB updates just to speed things up vs waiting for OTAs once I'm on the correct ROM?
I flashed my at&t version to AHQ3 thinking I would be getting faster support. I am also surprised that the Unlocked AHQ3 is still on the August security patch. I really expected this version to get patched much faster or am I missing something?

The US unlocked version is the red headed stepchild of the S8 world, it really is slower for updates.
I am running AQK3 on an ATT version, think I got it from sammobile, just got one I think it was the VZW version but don't remember, didn't change the AT&T bloatware... since I did not pawn/root it in my current setup. Patch level is oct not nov...
You should have received the November security patch update last night or should be getting it sooner than later. If anything try running the manual software update on WiFi when you get a chance.
I've been using the m3 for around 6 months now and so far the stock rom is still on nougat 7.0 with may security update, which for my model, btv dl09 c100, dates back to 15 6 2017 according to firmware finder. I've searched for btv w09 c233 on firmware finder and it seems this variant has gotten updates monthly pretty much for a full year. Does anyone have a variant of this tablet that still gets updated? Are the updates I see for the w09 233 variant using newer security patches and bug fixes?
Same here. May. I really like the M3 but I was annoyed when I acquired it last month and found there was no OTA to 7.0.
Fine, you can use firmware finder but it leaves me feeling I have a grey market device.

I am having the same issue, not sure how to update, each time I check ... it says its up to date.
You have to wait for it to become available. Actually my roommate and I both have 950U's. His loaded automatically months ago. I had to look around and then it was in my updates. Have Samsung experience level 9.0, which supposedly is as good as Oreo 8.1. That's good, because I can't find a way to get the real 8.1. If you run the latest patch/system update from April 1st, you have installed a level 3 bootloader and are the proud owner of one of the few phones that cannot be rooted! Congratulations! Maybe someday. My build number has changed to R16NW.G950USQS3CRE2

Maybe because the Sprint Oreo will be using BLv6 so its 2 numbers behind everyone else? lol ... anyone have any thoughts about what the BL-version could possibly be for the Sprint Oreo? ... could they or would they use a BLv4 like everyone else?
that was the Sprint answer

If anything, they would change it to v7. Maybe they are waiting for a merger, which could happen next week
I checked for update today and got 1627.64mb g930pvpu6cre7 Samsung experience 9.0 with oreo.
I haven't gotten an update from Sprint on my S7 since December 2016. I am still on some random Nougat beta version.
I thought a brand new firmware update to Oreo would reset whatever bug was in there causing this, but it looks like one person in my house got the Oreo update and mine is still saying I am up to date when I check manually.
Is there no longer an ODIN for macOS? I thought there was one, but I used it on another Mac maybe 4 years ago when I was on my S3 and rooting it. Doesn't seem to exist anymore.
Just received oreo on my s7 for boost. So far I'm not impressed. I was really hoping for Dolby on this but guess not. The build number is SMG930PVPU6CRE7

On Mac you can use Heimdall to flash the latest Nougat firmware then update through OTA to Oreo. Because there isn't any firmware file yet on Updato or Sammobile.
i manfully updated @ 4:15. they sent it @ 1627.64 mb. still downloading. when I got my att update I tried all the batch root methods for my 935a. saving magisk for last bc I didn't have the boot.img for the cre4 update.
I I only had the "att beta" update from March. long story short it won't boot with the nougat eng.boot. I gave it an hour. I cleared the cache, factory reset, tried to add flash all of the earlier img files I had for oreo, nothing worked. had to flash it back to nougat bra1. I immediately requested the update again. they approved. the next day I attempted to flash magisk 16.4. w/ the modified odin 3.1.3 version. it wouldn't flash. with the cre4 boot.tar in hand, I tried every method on gods green earth to gain some sort of r/w access. it was late, I was tired, I flashed the eng boot. once again it was stuck at the Samsung boot logo. it wouldn't allow me into recovery to push the cre4 update zip. once again I'm back to bra1 nougat. I booted into recovery & updated it from the sd card. when it booted I noticed it wasn't anywhere as clean & polished as the ota I had twice. I've flashed back to brd1 ten times, & requested the ota. after smart switch, I used all the avail windows software I could acquire & kept trying, they won't send it. but they did provide me with a new picture for my samsung account. I'll post it later. gotta check out this 930p oreo.

I don't think Heimdall works on High Sierra or even Sierra anymore.
I'm wanting to move to a SM-930U version of stock android on my 930P. But in struggling to do so for the past couple of weeks I finally figured out that sprint as updated the bootloader to version 5 and most of the firmware images for 930U are version 4 (android 7 nugut). (PU4 vs PU5) which results in a Odin fuse error.
The phone is currently nagging me to go from PU5BQL1 to BU6BRD2. If I understand the nameing convention that would move me to version 6 of the bootloader.
What are the odds I can move to oreo for 930U and avoid the bootloader fuse issue? I think I also understand that as of this posting date a 930U oreo firmware has not been released?

almost zero... asuming that Oreo for "U" Variants step up with BL on this month maybe next one, is something pausible but stepping up two versions in any short time is questionable... but who knows. The best you can do is wait this or the next month for BL update on U variants.
To be clear I'm still on version 5. I will continue to put off the upgrade to 6.
