Canada currently getting a new 1AQEJ update - Samsung Galaxy S8+ Guides, News, & Discussion

Apparently only a security fix though it appears newer than the 1AQEB rolling out in Europe and other places. No apparent Bluetooth fix, though my very, very brief range test with the S3 Classic worked. I did not get disconnected until I was about 25-30 feet away. More testing is required of course. The patch seems light in size compared to the 1AQEB, with 1AQEJ coming in at approximately 270MB VS. 670MB for the 1AQEB. Only visible difference is that I am now on May 1st, 2017 security patch.

Interesting.

Unlocked or a carrier?
Edit: Apparently this is for Bell, for now.

You can download and flash this to any Canadian variant of S8/S8+. They are all exactly the same phones.

Received it OTA on Telus this morning.

Strange. I'm on Bell and OTA says I'm on the latest with 1AQDE.

Did you buy your device direct from Samsung, full retail, or subsidized? As for where to grab it, I suppose I could download the latest firmware for my device and upload it somewhere or alternatively you can look for somebody posting it here on XDA or Sammobile.

I received it as well this morning, I'm on Virgin Mobile

Not available on Rogers yet.

I have massive battery drain all of a sudden. Google Play Services are keeping the device awake all the time. Nothing changed since yesterday except the new update. Cleared the cache a few minutes ago. Have to see if there is any impact.

Got this OTA update on my Bell S8+ this morning. Since i got the update Im having issues on screen sensitivity, like Im texting then menu option pops up or just scrolling my chat messages and then out of the blue it's menu pop up. Using a tempered glass screen protector which has adhesive on edges, working perfect before the update. Will still monitor it and report back tomorrow.

My device got hosed after this update. I had to factory reset it. I am going to attempt a restore now from a backup but I have a feeling that I'm in for a nice new setup from scratch. The phone just went nuts this morning and progressively got worse. Play Services started draining battery like mad, Play Store stopped working, random glitches and crashes, etc. I finally decided that enough is enough. I wasted at least 2 hours troubleshooting the issues in the hope that factory reset won't be necessary. I ought to know better.

After 3 days using this update i guess it's time to do a hard reset. The glitches I'm experiencing are just annoying and there's a slight battery drain issue too.

After factory reset the device seems to be back to normal, more or less. Have to wait out the first 3-5 days for the device to settle in but all the glitches I was seeing are gone now.

Okay, got a chance to test the Bluetooth connection again. There seems to be a bit of improvement in range. This might be placebo effect. Beyond that, nothing has improved at all. I am still having trouble with Bluetooth dropping at random, connectivity and discovery issues, etc. Same as before. I don't believe that this update incorporated any of the Bluetooth fixes that were discussed for 1AQEB.

Got it today on Vidéotron, no issues so far.

Glitching and freezing?

Hello,
I just acquired another Note 3, except this time on Verizon. Everything seemed to be working fine. I got home, did a factory reset (because the CSR skipped a bunch of stuff) and got everything set up the way I like it. Installed a few of my favorite apps (Snapchat, Spotify, Clash of Clans) and turned off all the Amazon and Verizon bloat.
Until...
About an hour after I got home I had my screen freeze. There was a few static lines going across the screen and then the device rebooted and returned to normal. No biggie. Then I played Clash of Clans for a little bit and the same thing happened. Sigh. This time it didn't restart itself, so I pulled the battery and noticed the battery cover wasn't fastened completely at the store. This made me question if that was the cause, but usually stuff like that happens from software issues. I left the battery out for a few minutes and threw it back in.
There was a couple more times it happened, but really no need to go into detail. Now I'm just sitting here typing this out hoping it doesn't happen again.
Any ideas to what might be causing this? I don't use any apps not tested on Kitkat, and am not rooted etc. I'd hate to make another trip to the store to swap it out. Oh, and I also disabled WiFi scanning, and that didn't seem to fix the issue.
Help!
I had some reboots as well. I don't remember where i saw it but I read an article about done issues in kit Kat causing freezes. The article also covered the pain in the arse changes to sdcard r/w.

So I went back and exchanged the phone today for a different one and so far so good. This one came pre-installed with kitkat as well. I'm crossing my fingers.

No idea, haven't rooted mine and don't plan to. There should be a guide posted somewhere in General.
For what it's worth, haven't had a single issue with the replacement so far. Phew.

Could you keep me updated on how you went about getting it replaced? Also how long have you had it without incident? I'm looking into unrooting replacing it

It's been 24 hours so far without incident. I just took it up to the Verizon store where I purchased it and told them it was freezing and rebooting and they gave me a brand new replacement. How long have you had yours?

Android Central hmzzz don't believe everything they are saying.
They also said you loose image quality /features in the camera if you unlock the bootloader which isn't true.
Notice any differences in how it operates? No notice of any available update on my device as of yet...

Some users on their forum also says that. ATT got it 2 days before and we are getting it to.
I hope they move dual window back to back button. Thats all i need.
I have a H815. So i don't think I will receive an update then
https://support.t-mobile.com/docs/DOC-22421
Pretty sure its true, but ATT's was only like 25mb
What I don't understand as an EU G4 user.
Why does T-mobile provide an update? Is it an update on their software? Or is LG involved?
Are there specific T-mobile apps on it?
I got the update this morning. To answer a couple of questions: No, no new apps. Dual window is still in the same place.
I dont notice anything right offhand different, but I havent done much with my phone yet this morning. Heres a capture of my info:

T-Mobile (as well as most carriers) ship out the updates after they've approved the changes. I would imagine this is to ensure that nothing being updated will affected their carrier's included Spam (I mean added software) or network connectivity. Last thing they want is their stores or customer service lines inundated with "help! The update broke my cellular connection!" claims.

If you do notice anything of real substance, please post it so that we can know. For now, I think I will avoid connecting to WiFi until I know what this update actually does. I've never been a fan of generic changelogs...
But then it's a little bit strange that the international version. Hasn't got the update.
So you could assume it has to do with their spam apps.
Maybe it fixes the touchscreen issue. I haven't gotten an update yet, and I've switched back to my S5 for now.

Could have to do with any number of kernel/lib/framework related items specific to carrier. Could be cellular radio related, WiFi related (wifi calling has been weird on my phone...doesn't want to seem to connect but I have awesome reception where I live, so I don't need it), etc...
Has your version had any updates in last week or two? If so, it might just be that the carriers are just now approving that update and pushing out to the devices.

That is true for certain phones. Like the Sony phones.
Sweet. Pretty quick imo. Look forward to seeing if it fixes some small issues I've been having (touch/tap misses and knock settings). I know knock settings are a longshot, but it would be nice to be able to configure them to each persons liking. I'd love to be able to turn off the "drag one finger down to quick view the clock/status"
I got my update overnight.
Phone updated without any warning or notice when I woke up this morning. CHecked the software version and it was the new one.
I havent noticed any differences as of yet.
Actually I just looked at my phone and already running version h I wonder if from the factory there were two different images

No I haven't got any updates on my version (H815).
Got the update and my phone starting shaking and jumping around on my desk. When the update was complete it turned into a Galaxy S6
Since they are already working on root and unlock I wouldn't take the ota just yet. Ive got a replacement on the way so once I get the update I'll take it on the one I'm returning and see if any changes. Ill also do a system dump on the new version too if necessary.

5.1.1. Can't make or receive phone calls anymore!

Title says it all actually!
Recently I've been having issues with my Note 4. I'll be in a perfect signal area, full signal everything firing on all cylinders...except when people call me I don't get the calls.
And attempting to call anyone back, results in my call sitting there counting down the timer until it times out and ends the call.
So I recently unlocked my Note 4 Retail bootloader (CID conversion). Rooted, and am running stock upgrade 5.1.1 which I grabbed from the Development section here for our phones.
Same deal as before.
Shame too, this phone is running so smoothly too, the best it ever has.
Have tried flashing stock FW through Odin 3.10.6, and not converting the CID or rooting, no dice.
Can't make phone calls, can't receive phone calls.
My sim card is fine as well, it was working about 4 or 5 days ago prior.
Didn't know where else to post this problem, have searched for hours (maybe in the wrong places?) and have no progress to show for it. This phone is my daily driver and I have no other, nor the cash to pay for a replacement from VZW right now.
Are there any settings I can change, or something I missed? Did I flash the wrong 5.1.1 upgrade file in Odin? I'll link to the one I used specifically.
Topic: http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4-verizon/development/firmware-firmware-kernel-modem-recovery-t2942937
FW used = N910VVRU2BPA1:

Yup, updated the modem. Not sure if I flashed the correct file or not though.
I flashed this file: N910VVRU2BPA1_Modem.tar.md5 the other day, but no noticeable changes have happened. Looks like its new phone time unfortunately...
Thanks for replying by the way!
Apologies for taking so long to respond!
Same thing just happened to me using Kyubi Note 5 port. I just wiped everything and re-flashed Paulpizz's ROM. When I say wiped everything, I mean everything including internal storage. Data and calls working normally now.

I'm not sure if Paulpizz's OP was updated but I'm using his most recent update that is posted on page 7 of the thread. ROM is stable and clean. With Xposed installed I'd have to say it is the best ROM available. His ongoing support for the ROM is amazing. Just waiting for him to port some Note 5 features.

Hate this happened to you as well, but feel a bit relieved at least one other person has dealt with this.
I'll try wiping everything completely again and see what happens. But I'm pretty sure VZW have stopped service on my Note 4 in particular...
It's a long story no one is interested in, but I actually got my Note 4 for free from a relative.
I worked out a deal where I repaired and rooted a couple phones for him, and he gave me his old Note 4...which unfortunately he lost at work, received a replacement, then the old one turned up a week later on the job site he was working at...then gave that phone to me, so if anyone is familiar with similar situations such as this, that basically means the phone was blacklisted (lost or stolen list).
Can't get a new sim card for it either, that's how I found out about all this the other day. Got 8 months use out of it though...can't complain too much.
Longer story short, ended up spending my first paycheck from the new job on a Nexus 6 today, be here in a few days probably...
The Note 4 is going to be my media player though, due to sd-card slot and all .
Thanks for the replies everyone!

LG V20 H990DS Firmware Update V10b-Nov-25-2016

Hi,
i just received an OTA update:
V10b-Nov-25-2016
Changelog just stated that usability and functionality of the smartphone has been improved.
Has anybody else already received this? Did anybody notice changes?
Kind regards,
BrowsingMan
received, but nothing to report, works exactly as before
Just updated last night. Seems normal
Received it as well last night. There was a bit of instability for the first hour or so. Lagging etc and one automatic reboot, but I'm guessing that was just due to the OS system settling down.
This morning everything seems normal as before.
Any improvement in auto shots with the camera?

Same happened to me. I rebooted a few times which didn't fix it which got me worried, but by the morning it was fine.
I don't mean to derail the thread but is there any custom support for this phone model? I'm mainly only seeing support for the H918. I'd love to root once its available and safe but it seems like this is one of those odd models out that no one really cares about.

Can you guys check/time your fast charge using OEM cable and charger? It doesn't seem to work for me, ot at least not prior to the OTA update on every ocassion. I've had instability issues when the phone gets a little hot/warm, if left in direct sunlight for 15 minutes, etc. I'm going to thoroughly test this out before posting anjy reviews. So far, not impressed with the loudspeaker.
I also don't want to update the phone yet incase the "impending" root solution, if one comes about, happens to be software-version-specific, since we are dealing with a phone on a locked bootloader.
RoOSTA
something i have noticed since the update is a huge improvement in reception... now almost all the time it's 4-5 bars for each sim, on lte and 3g, whereas before i used to pick up my phone and see only 1-2 bars... especially at home.
i must specify that i never had a problem calling or browsing even with 1-2 bars, never lost connection during a call, cristal clear voice. so maybe before it was simply showing less bars than it really was? anyway, just my feedback

from 5% to 100% it takes about 1 hour and a quarter
Yep , received the update yesterday. No comment on the update work just like normal. ?
Hey guys.
I installed the LG PC Bridge and, among other things, I decided to check for a software update. It informed me one was available, which seemed odd, because I had checked yesterday O.T.A. and had found nothing.
Anyway, I disconnected the phone and checked again and true enough the 10b update was available (still found it weird that it said Nov. 25 though) at approx. 730MB, but I decided to reconnect and use Bridge to update.
I began the process and it said the download size was 2.9GB! That's a huge difference. O.T.A. still shows the update at 730MB. Does anyone know if there any differences??

i guess bridge is offering you the full package instead of the incremental update, but the outcome should be the same
Does anyone notice any difference?
Mine works great before and after update....
Everything looks really good...I think that the problem with keyboard is a little improved....I'm talking about next word suggestion...
Mine has just been updated to 10b as well. So far everything is working great but I've only just starting using the phone so I can't comment on what was fixed over the last release.
Phone is getting warm and battery drops quicker for me. Anyone has the same problem?
Also, please check your Data usage for Google Docs, Slides and Drive. i don't use it but it still has backgroud data running! Do u have same issue?
Just updated to v10d released December 26 Changelog says performance improvement and improvement to home. Screen but I haven't noticed any changed neither I'm speed nor in options
Did you receive the update via PC Bridge or OTA?
in SEA region, we're still stuck with V10c
I bought mine in Philippines, and since the middle of December (more or less) I am with the 10e version, and still trying to realize how many other versions LG needs to release for the phone have a good usability.
Same for the LG G5, that is in the first Nougat version and it's in the box (both).

i got it via OTA and i went straight from v10b to v10d i didnt receive any update for v10c
I received the OTA update V10F-IND-xx about a week ago. Talked about performance improvement. Post the update the battery performance has gone to hell. It would easily pump out about 6 hours SOT which has now dropped to about 4 hours. Also, have noticed slight to medium heating under the power key when using apps that access data over wifi.Unrooted. Anyone know if it's possible to roll back the update without rooting? OR any quick fix to this problem.

My family is from Missouri! I get that joke!
We all need more skepticism these days. Given the time lapse already since the India G4+ release, I'm starting to doubt it gets released at all.
Hi,
I updated my Moto G4 to Nougat last week. Everything was fine. Yesterday there was some 114 mb ota update. I downloaded it and since then I am facing two issues-
1. Whenever I lock the screen using the power/lock button on the side, the screens becomes black and white for a millisecond and then it gets locked. I haven't seen any other phone's screen becoming black and white for a tad and then lock. Is everyone experiencing the same?
2. The battery is draining just way too fast. 40% depletion since morning. I only used the phone to make two 4 minutes phonecalls. I did not install any new app or game. Any troubleshooting for this?
This is the build number etc.-
