S8 G950 Oreo Update OTA this morning! - Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers

Hi since this morning the OREO update is available for over the air flashing and it was easy. It took about twenty minutes then it was done.
It flashed the crap Firmware (this is the actual version)
I can't say much to the functions. I have it for 1 or 2 hours.
It's the german DBT firmware, my S8 was not branded and root free. I life in Germany.
Great - the real rollout is there!

2.2 Update approved by Three in the UK

According to their blog on the Galaxy S, the 3 network in the UK have approved Froyo and are waiting for Samsung to upload it for distribution through Kies.
Woohoo if you're with 3 in the UK!
cant wait for this to come to the US!!!!

Why?
because then we will have an official froyo for our phones lol...if a galaxy s official version comes out for hte US, it means captivate isnt too far behind
just tried and no luck yet
I would quite like to flash the official one for my Galaxy S on 3...currently running JPM with Voodoo pre6 flashed via ODIN. How would I go about getting back the stock firmware so that I can update via KIES?
I was speaking to my brother today, we both have Galaxy's on T-Mobile but he lost his and had to claim another through insurance. He got it about 4 days ago and he has said his is running JP2 Froyo, this is how the phone was released from T-Mobile so Froyo can't be that far behind for us all now

I hate to burst your bubble but froyo is not that good. I upgraded to it and could only use it for 4 hours then downgraded back to eclair. I can;t stand my phone lagging and stuttering.

It is more likely that you missed a step or two. So far, everyone seems to report improved performance varying from marginal to great. Try doing factory reset...as that seems to be standard procedure to go through after flashing a new firmware.
anyone had this yet
Nope , Still waiting for it ...

Not really, i had 3 goes before i decided to give up and followed the guides to the letter (inlcuding a factory reset before and after)
It is just that comparing to JM9 with voodoo, JPO is not that efficient.
The best results I got was with Doc's JPO Rom with ext4 lag fix, but battery performance was not that good (0.6% per hour idle vs 0.1% per hour on JM9) so I reverted back to JM9
I do have about 120 apps though so this may be affecting performance.
just phoned 3 uk and there sending me a direct download because i carnt see it in kies and its showing up on the three site as avaivable now. so lets see then if it arrives and i can use it. lol
cant see anything on the 3 website.do you have the link ?

If you could remember i was on this Dummy update so i decided to go back to xxkf3 this morning . Immediately after installing through odin i checked for update via OTA and i got this
Nothing here,i run KE7 2.3.3
Has anyone else got it ?
Somehow you have ended up with a test phone i reckon .

You mean the phone i bought from very.co.uk for 600pounds with my own money should be a test phone.

You are lucky, on the Sensation forums there was a guy who bought a Sensation and got by accident an eng off, rooted phone whilst the rest of the world was stuck with a locked bootloader.
I guess for devs your phone could be worth more than what you paid for it
Well maybe am lucky. I was wondering really why i get the update before everybody. The last time was xxkh5 which samsung manage to change to a dummy update. But this time i have learnt my leason .
what provider you you have? csc?

Do a system dump of the firmware!!!!

We think that these updates are only meant for Samsung staff and some how your phone got added to the list of test phones -- it explains why you and nobody else gets them.
My guess this happen because you installed a leaked firmware from samfirmware.com. Remember these leaked firmware could be test builds for internal staff use only. May be something happened on this leaked firmware that got your phone added to the list of staff test phones.
Are there any new great and wonderful features you can see in this update? (It could be months and months before they release any updates for the rest of us!)
Tweet from Samfirmware.com: First roms with Android 2.3.5 for Galaxy S II will be online this month.
Robbielicious has got the leaked firmware, but it's not yet ready for release: "in my possesiosn but in my believe not worthy o releasing just yet"
Darky's crew are now working with Samfirmware.com (i9000 version released about an hour ago) so I imagine the i9100 version will be released as soon as it is ready.
The ki1 update
The update is quiet good. The new goodies on the update are something
1. on the top where the 3g is , we have h+ and R . It really helps me a lot because formally when i visit our basement at my working place i normally lost connection. after i have to reboot my phone but in this case no more rebooting. The batterie life is very amaizing. Internet super fast.
Thanks samsung for the great work done.
What a joke dude!

propably just a new version of the 2.3.6
have you just bought the note?
where is the note from and what android version did u have installed.. kk4? la4?
you are right. i have a LA4 version now
Where do you live?
Ffs, i think I'm at the end of the world ... Still on KK5 and no OTA update for me ):
i am in canada
how do i find out where my phone is coming from? please advice.
after LA4 update. everything seems so much faster.!!! i am very happy with this update
I'm also on KK5 and no update for me.
No OTA update for me. German Note (DBT CSS) and I am on LA4 now (since a few weeks ago). So we're on the same page

I am at the end or the world: Oz!
I have not had any update since the first in late Dec when I got the phone. Still KK5
Seriously!
Yeah now why we have'nt been getting updates since last year(Dec) I don't get it :/
All UK ones are not getting it unless you do it manually! DBT ones are being pampared looks like!
how to check where my phone is coming from?
How is it some people get the update and their Note flies and others get it and it lags? My homescreens move jerkingly across as I move them over.
I'd remove it if I knew how. I hate the new keyboard too. Wish I could get the original kb back somehow.
I could type without ever messing up, now it's like any other touchscreen keyboard and I'm constantly deleting letters I didn't mean to type.
My GT-N7000 just downloaded an update to LA4. I have it on push updates, but it didn't tell me about it - only when I manually asked it to check through the settings (not Kies, but that might have worked too. I think I did this yesterday too, so it's pretty new).
It's the first update I've received since I got my phone mid-December (I've been checking quite often), unfortunately I can't remember for sure what version it was on - it was 2.3.6, I think KJ6 but am not 100% certain. The region is TGY (Hong Kong). The download was 80.63MB.
Things I've noticed:
- Phone/S Memo icons are a bit different (yeah... I'm writing things down in the order I notice them)
- S-Pen calibration seems much better. The Auto-Rotation bug is gone (where if you toggle auto-rotation it would write a good 1cm off).
- Scrolling in some ListViews is much smoother. For example, scrolling in G+ used to be really jerky, it's now smooth.
- When you scroll a list view too far the effect is a bit different
- The screen takes just as long to come on after pressing the power button.
Maybe all of this is old and everyone else has been on LA4 for ages, but I thought I'd post it anyway.

Quite simple, the note will recieve a full blown ICS update and the device does not need more updates for the Gingerbread branch, its all ready on the newest api-level.
My own insider contacts have said it will be quite soon after the SGS II ICS update that the Note will get its own.
I would bet that a ICS running version is on display at MWC in barcelona in three weeks.
yeah.. I notice those changes too.. everything run very smooth. very happy with the new update.. and excited for the ics..

Yes it is out now. Someone should capture and post the OTA package for others to flash.
Update: It's finally rolling out, got mine at 9 am EST
I was so excited to see this post, among many others, but I have a T-Mobile Samsung Note 8 and still get nothing under system updates. :/

Bull****. T-Mobile updated the version number page for the Note 8 with today's date, yet NOT A SINGLE PERSON has verified receipt of PIE on the T-Mobile forum, Reddit, or here. I doubt they've even started pushing it yet.
According to Des, the Twitter PR guy, it'll get pushed as early as today and if not, Monday. They are updating the page and preparing to push. It was certified by Tmobile today.

Just checked his twitter account. He states that it was approved today. Where did you get the info on if it doesn't push today, then it will be Monday, because Des didn't say that in his tweet.

Cool. Thanks. Nothing like announcing something on a Friday and then making people wait until Monday for it. CRUEL. That's like waiting for UPS to deliver a package to you on a Friday that you can't wait to have, and then being told there was a delay and since they don't deliver on Sat or Sun, you've gotta wait till Monday. That's the worst.
Just got mine by checking
My OTA is literally downloading right now. FINALLY!!!!!
Does anyone have N950USQU5DSC1_N950UOYN5DSC1_TMB.ZIP already downloaded on a faster
Got it at 12:01 am last night, so far I've noticed just a lot of visual changes, the clock is moved to the top left corner, and we get more options for the always on display. We finally get Bixby remapping, and it works really well. The Camera mode selections got simplified, and we even get Dolby Atmos support, Idk if anyone else reads the changelog, but apparently we dont need the Dock anymore for DeX support the Pie update allows us to use the way cheaper cable options. Overall it does kinda feel like a slight performance improvement, but let's be honest the Note 8 wasnt ever a slow phone. How is everyone enjoying Pie?
Have a T-Mo Note 8, checked Samsung Smart Switch this morning and have a 4GB update waiting. Anyone know where Smart Switch stores downloaded content? If I can find the update on my PC I'll be glad to share it.
I got mine this morning by manually checking at 8:30
Anyone know if I will have to wait longer to get the update since I have the unlocked model?
I used the app from play store samsung update checker and it took me right to the download. Downloaded full firmware in 28 minutes. 1000 times better than crappy Sammobile. Sammobile is absolute trash.
Use the Good Lock app to move the clock where you want (Left, middle, right).
Good Lock is a great companion app for Pie.
