Still waiting sm-g935f
Read it got delayed due to a few bugs.
I'm in the Uk with a Sim Free S7 edge SM-G935F awaiting patiently.
Still waiting too
How come you guys don't want to flash through Odin?
I've read a few posts where performing actions to circumvent the natural Over The Air Nougat Update has caused various issues.
My s7 edge is stable on Marshmallow so I'm not prepared to affect that.
Oh, I did last night, everything's running great on my end
Nothing here in Brazil yet, although I'm using a custom ROM with Nougat btu version.
I do not have hopes in Brazilian Nougat for this month yet.

A friend of mine from Switzerland has received Nougat 7.0 on his S7 Edge.
He was not in the beta program before so i think all people will receive this.
I will post more pics from him as soon as i will receive them.
:good:
Due to the nature of test version, unexpected errors can occur.
so i think it might be a test release....
Screenshot seems very..... off
EDIT: Okay, I know why the screenshots look so shady. Googled the build number only to find out that they're from the Nougat Beta, and not an official release.
Check this out: http://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_gal...ugat_beta_is_now_live_in_korea-news-21542.php
Look at the first screenshot.
Either you're an attention seeker, or your friend is trolling you.
Do the updates for android come for each country at different time? Like do some countriey get it faster than other?

Welcome to the world of Android updates.
The company releases the update in waves to unlocked phones.
If your devices is carrier specific it goes through your carrier first and then it becomes available for your device.
Well i jiat got it from repair. And before it was carrier specific but now they installed some poland firmware on it so i think its not carrier specifix anymore. Does that mean faster update?
Fake or?
I Am on btu CSC

Probably yes. It always depends on the carrier.
US carriers for example take way to long to update their devices.
That is Nougat BETA firmware. You or your friend are telling porkies so the fat lady can sing
And that text is not Chinese but Korean. So, Nougat is here and Hong Kong is now in Korea.
This dude again? Don't feed It, please...
I'm in Hong Kong but haven't got the update yet
So it's not his first rodeo

No Nougat for my SM-G935FD unlocked international version with dual sim here in Dubai
this morning received nougat !!
For those who started getting the Nougat Update please also clarify if you were participating in the Beta Program or not.
I think I am downloading it now. The screenshot above was the same as the update I am downloading. I was not on the beta program and I am from the UK. Will update further once installed. Mine is unlocked international version.
Sammobile has confirmed Nougat launch in countries which had been part of the Beta program
Source: https://www.sammobile.com/2017/01/17/nougat-rollout-begins-galaxy-s7-galaxy-s7-edge-china-uk/
I did not participate to the beta program.
Currently I'm Slovakia after reading this thread I manually checked for updates and it is currently downloading a big update. (1291.19MB)
Since I'm not allowed to post in Flashing/ROMS I'm posting this here.
There has been quite a bit of questioning if the ATT S7 Flat and Edge can be downgraded back to Marshmallow from Nougat, And i have tested with USA Unlocked firmware and I can say that it works perfectly.
It originally started with me having issues with battery life and performance on ATT firmware on Nougat so I flashed the USA Unlocked version of Nougat and performance wise it ran MUCH better, However the battery life still wasn't there.
So I did some research where people were on the fence, some said yes while some said no. So I took the chance and downloaded the 6.0.1 firmware for SM-G935U and flashed it onto my phone with PrinceComsy Odin and 5 Minutes later it booted up fine.
Service is just as good as it is on ATT Firmware without the bloat, better battery life (by far) and MUCH better performance.
If I could post up the links, I would but I'm not allowed because I don't have enough posts.
I'm actually really pleased to see that this is possible. I do hope to see some links in the near future!
Anybody has any idea when Galaxy S8 & S8+ SM-G950U1/G955U1 will receive OREO update?
SM-G950F and SM-G950FD got OREO a month ago.
Seriously SAMSUNG, what are you smoking?

I am waiting for update also for the G955U1.
G955U already has oreo G955USQU2CRB9
me too bro
Did anyone get it yet?
You shouldn't worry a lot about oreo. I've installed it on s7e. Nothing new. I would mich better appreciate samsung to stop smoking and unlock bootloaders rather than bringing same os just with higher number.
me too,waiting...
Oreo
I recive oreo today in my galaxy s8 plus SM-G955U1
Now with cream filling....
Just downloaded Oreo and installed. I had it set to automatically download but it didn't. I decided to check just 30 minutes ago on a whim before this post and it was there.
Yeap, downloaded and here we are. Let's see how it goes.
Do not update android Oreo on SM-G950U1!!
I'm not sure if I am the only one that happens this but after installing the last update on my Samsung Galaxy S8 SM-G950U1 the phone stop working and falls into an infinite bootlooping.
I had to enter into recovery screen to be able to turn off the device.
Then I tried to fix this flashing the phone with the last firmware (the same one of the last update) because I thought that there might be a problem when I was downloading the update and the phone didn't turn on, it continues with the bootloop.
The only solution I found is to download a previous version (I installed the one released on December 2017) and flash the phone with that firmware and the phone works perfect!
It is embarazing that Samsung has released another OTA that briks the phones!
Regards!
On the S8 Oreo (and prior OS) every time I update apps, which is all the time, the updating moves all app data from the SD card back to phone memory. I tested this with Samsung on the phone and they took over my phone and saw my Kindle data (400mb) was on the SD card, then updated the Kindle app and rechecked and the data had all been moved back to internal phone memory. They said an update resets all apps to default and that is normal. Uh, no spending hours a month moving data around is not normal. What is the point of having an SD card if what you put on it doesn't stay on it?
is the SM-950U unlocked for any carrier?
I have a Galaxy S8 SM-950U and using it on T-Mobile.
I tried a foreign SIM card and it said that my device can be unlocked remotely .
1) how do I unlock it?
2) How do I check the lock and unlock the bootloader
3) how I install a ROM (such as Galaxy S9 ROM (with the funny interractive avatars) ?
I got the update in mid feburary i guess
I'd rather have Nougat back, Oreo feels like a concentration camp, not very exciting one.
I never recieved an update to oreo o.t.a having an unlocked s7 edge. I spoke to vodafone who is my network provider who was first to roll out the update and told me the update has been pulled due to there being so many issues with the update. Bit annoyed now as some people seem to have updated with no problems at all and it looks like some of us may not see oreo at all on our devices.

This really looks ridiculous for me, to be honest. My dad has A5 2017 and he received Oreo last week. It's really a shame that flagship S7/S7 edge is facing this poor software update policy. I also saw that Note 8 users still haven't received Oreo. On Samsung Turkey webiste Oreo is listed in testing phase and date of release is set for May 18. I wouldn't be surprised if they delay it again.
They test Oreo on cheaper devices to get less complains. And less financial risk if the update goes wrong.
Also, usually the people that buy flagship devices usually "upgrade" selling those to second hand market. That's why the manufacturers don't update those devices so quickly - to push the "high rollers" to buy the new phones that have the newest bells and whistles.
Yes its been pulled back from the server for now. Can't say how much more delay is there for the worldwide rollout, but chances are near the end of may it will start rolling out again alongwith may security patch globally.

You said that you receveid that, but the G935FXXU2ERD5 is the Oreo from UK: https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/galaxy-s7-edge/SM-G935F/BTU/download/G935FXXU2ERD5/217550/
You probably had an earlier UK ROM installed to had receveid this new G935FXXU2ERD5.
I thought you were the first to receveid the unbranded Oreo ROM for S7 here in Brazil .

Maybe thats why im having those connections drops/lag? Or they are not related?
Thats what i though really odd. Im from BR, my mobile is G935FXXU2ERD5, and when i enter sammobile, there is NO RELEASE of android 8.0 for Brazil. So i guess i received this UK???

Yes, you received the ROM from UK.
It is expected that you have no problem, except the VOLTE that is specified region (you have to have a CSC from the region where the phone will be used).
There is no CSC from Brazil on 8.x yet and I do not know if previous CSC are compatible.

Anyone get official Oreo 8.0 for SM-G935U Unlocked variants? I mean it seems every other carrier is pushing their Oreo already, even the Exynos model ones got Oreo, was there no love for us with USA unlocked models?
I'm waiting for the official update too. Btw have you tried flashing the G935T Oreo firmware? I've tried the G935A firmware and scrolling and overall performance feels unrefined compared to nougat.

I contacted Samsung support and they said there were issues with it, so the developers are going to fix them all before Oreo is released to the SM 935U.

Finally a update . I was beginning to wonder since the S8+s [g955u1] already had 3 unlocked firmware's with Oreo and the S9+s [g965u1] having one. Now the next is to find out what Binary version the unlocked Oreo firmware's will have since Sprints stock Oreo Firmware [g935p] has a Binary 6.
I got one this evening! Still downloading...
I updated my unbranded SM-G935U yesterday, and it has permanently disabled my WiFi! Nothing fixes it, Samsung support refer me to a service center. Tired of Samsung problems tbh. Definately getting Pixel3 when it comes out! Just gotta chug along until then without WiFi -.-

I got the update two days ago. No issues at all.
Flashed the t mobile oreo firmware on july 4th when it came out and then flashed the g935u firmware as soon as it came out. Gotta say I love oreo on this device. it makes the phone so much faster and adds so many great features! ?
Does anyone think it will receive the android 9.0 update as well?

Yes. When I first factory reset it, I did it from inside Android. That did not resolve the WiFi issue. My next step was to reboot into recovery and factory reset the phone that way (format data/chache). Still did not work.
I re-installed Nougat through ODIN, and my WiFi works perfectly. I set my updates to manual this time, and will not update to Oreo. I only have to get by until October, then I can get my Pixel 3.
Thank you for your suggestion.
I had a problem after I installed the oreo. Maybe just a coincidence but after about 30 mins of installing the update, I got the grey lines on the screen. Saw some people had same problems even before the oreo. I tried going back to nougat and it is still there.
