Thank's for sharing this! I'm on the newest stock fw for Verizon, were you on the same?
Edit: Nevermind should have read their full post lol
Just go to updato and get the Sprint xas version does not require paid download like that OP's link.

I'm on the S8+ so luckily I didn't have to use the paid links. Will try this after I backup my phone. Would you say it's good enough to use as my daily driver?
I am not having any issues that I can see. Battery life is a complaint but I have not had that issue either. If you flash beta 2 for the S8+ be prepared to do a factory reset.

Alright will do, was hoping I could avoid that but I backed everything up with Smart Switch to be safe. May actually wait til after the gym to try this, would hate to not have my music.

You have to be on the listed firmware. Cannot be on anything but what they posted. I downloaded mine from updato just use Sprint XAS. It will reinstall Verizon bloat on first boot. Also install nougat and before rebooting it will take you to recover just install the Oreo beta then before setting up the device.
Does this by chance have wifi tethering unlocked in beta??
I wonder if there is a way to root the beta yet
Just to be clear, this has been tested on the Verizon G950U? Very cautious when dealing with Verizon Samsung devices that don't have unlocked bootloaders... Thanks in advance.
Yes I personally did beta 1 on my own device and successfully flashed back when I was done testing.
Beta 4 is now available. Buttery smooth and good battery life. Only glitch I am seeing if fast charging is hit or miss.

You have Orea beta 4 on Verizon? What is the build number? How did you do it? With the latest update I am now on bootloader 2 so I don't think you can do it like originally posted.
I believe you can still get to it. What update are you on with your phone? I was on I believe Verizon's latest and still flashed back to the OP then to AJC and then ZQKM.

The latest firmware is a 2 bootloader so I don't think you can go back--2BQK5
Go into download mode and look at the bootloader line if it says B2. We might have to look into a different method.

Thanks for posting this! I was unable to update to Lollipop over Wifi/OTA. AT&T was of no help, the Samsung rep at Best Buy just looked confused when I asked if they could flash my phone (He said he'd download the latest version, but didn't think 5.x would be available yet). I had ever used Odin before, but installation was easy, and my phone seems much faster. Battery life seems a little worse tho.

Did you use Titanium to restore your stuff? or just started from scratch both times?
Where did you get files to downgrade from? Many people wanting this update and mine was forced. Hate it. My phone is now sluggish, battery life severely affected and the modem is crap. I can't even send a text message from my house. All these issues were non existent before upgrade.

KingsRoot will give you "TEMP" root on 4.4.4 which is the "ONLY" method available at this time.
This thread is an extension to that where it removes kingsroot and applies SuperSU

Yup. Something like that.
In order to fix mine and bring back alive.
1. Download the latest FW for the ZE551 from the Zenfone 2 support page of Asus India.
2. Install TWRP
3. Format /system and /data via TWRP
4. Flash the latest firmware .20 downloaded above.
Back in business. Bootloader still unlocked. I will try to update to .22 later. Hope everything goes well or else back to square one.
I found the update summary on asus Chinese site. Translating it into English:
1. The United States and Canada software get new security feature Kill switch
2. Improve India's 3G signal data Capability
3. Fix Thailand Provider True SIM1 not able to make call

Hey guys thought I could start this any news on Oreo coming to T-Mobile Note 8?? Post all news here thanks guys
I asked tmobile and samsung mobile I was redirected to support page for os Nougat on tmobile website.. Nothing else new.
Samsung announced that the Note 8 will get Oreo, the time line has not been said.
Oreo Beta

Been running this since yesterday. Only issue I've come across is that I can't allow unknown sources. Other than that it's ok so far. Truly nothing groundbreaking about it compared to the latest official update.

Some Substratum theme options weren't yet working. A few random force closes. Security Log agent messages from some apps. Lag in the notification shade when playing Spotify (so possibly any media). It's not like Oreo is a big upgrade, so I'm not in a rush to get it.

I just got this phone two days ago and have been away from the forums for over 2 years. Root is available for BQJA if I read correctly. Is that right? I just want root for substratum. Downloaded it from the Play Store and it's offering me to buy an add on for "supported Samsung"

You don't need root for Substratum. The $1.99 add-on does work and is probably required.

You can, but only by using the built in "my files" app.. Also go to settings>apps then tap the dots in the top right and tap special access and look at the bottom of the list. Do you see install unknown apps?
I hope they fix the theming issues, half of the icons get the stupid white border/frame. even when you turn off icon frames its stays. its the biggest reason why I switched back. This Beta is really stale this year. I have it on my s8 to and I'm not really impressed

It probably didn't work due to the following:

Well, I mean these are beta versions, getting bugs & glitches is kind of expected lol As of right now in this version, I've experienced very minimal problems. It runs very smooth, it's one of the best beta versions yet. I do experience some lag after a week or so, but that's expected. If for whatever reason, you run into problems, you want to or need to go back to stock, I do have the ODIN files to flash back to stock, if needed. Just let me know.
Unfortunately, as of right now, there's no method or version to avoid your device from being wiped. You can back up your data with smart switch.

It just updates it all of your stuff should stay intact but I would still recommend that you make a backup and save whatever you really want because some times things just go wrong.

Thanks for the heads up. It worked great. No major issues so far. A little glitch when pulling settings down when locked. But besides that it is amazing. Alot snappier everywhere else.
I have a TMO running the unlocked firmware N950U1UE5CRK1. Can I flash the TMO update.zip on top? Or flash the TMO US5CRK1 first? Thanks!
nevermind, can not be done, switching firmware to US5CRK1
If you are already in US5CRK1 you just need download UPDATE.ZIP and put it in your phone SD Card. Then boot up in Recovery Mode and install update.zip from there. Enjoy

I have N950USQU5DRL6 and already on Pie, how do I get DRL7? I downloaded the update.zip CRK1 to DRL7.
Reason I ask is because last time I was on DRL5 and just flashed the update.zip which brought me to DRL6.

i did that too with DRL5 TO DRL6 but it didn't work with DRL6 TO DRL7. So I downgrade to CRK1 and flash DRL7

I keep getting Failed in Odin.

You have to use Odin patched version

I'm using v3.13.1 Patched.
So far no issues with DRL7, love the UI improvement and no audio issues like others had been having.

Check Netflix. When you watch a movie, does the picture show, or do you get a black screen and audio only?

Unfortunately I do not have Netflix. I use Plex and Amazon prime video. No issues with either.

Prime video works? I can't remember if it was broken in DRL6 or not. Netflix for sure was.

Checking right now.
Edit: nope it's not working but Plex plays just fine. Might be a security permission for prime and netflix
I noticed Samsung pay works now.
