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.

Hello all,
I purchased Galaxy S8 G950FD 5 months ago from the UAE. Since that time I have not received any update even security update.
I asked Samsung and they said that this version will not receive any update in the Netherlands.
Do you know any way to get the wifi update?
On the other hand, I tried to flash the new software rom by Odin, but I am facing a problem with Odin, it stops at SET PARTITION and does not go on.
Ant solution?

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.
I got the update this morning on my S8+ So check your Software Update.
https://9to5google.com/2019/03/29/a...s8-note-8-android-pie-update-rolling-out-now/
Got the new one UI pie update on my S8+ this morning. Finally happening and sooner than I thought AT&T would push the update. Now onto learning some new settings.
I am not seeing any OTA update, I think its because I am on beta version of android pie. Can any one point me how to get back to regular updates from beta ??
I have the SM-G955U, I'm with cricket but its an At&t phone. I don;t think I'm going to get the update.
i live out of usa and have s8 plus g955u att unlocked on oreo - how can i update cuz i cant get it ota ? can anybody help?
Nope
I still haven't gotten the update on my AT&T S8+. I'm not sure what's going on but every time I go to check for the update it just says, "Current software is up to date". I even went as far as backing up my data and doing a complete factory restore and checking for the update and got the same thing. I know there have been some posts on here regarding using ODIN and using the Sprint or T-Mobile versions to update. Is this still the best option and are there any known issues by doing this?
Thanks guys!
I still haven't got the update on my ATT Samsung S8+ Unlocked. I am from the PH. Is there any way to force update the software?
UPDATE:
I need an urgent help however.. I changed my csc to SPRINT from ATnT, using *#272*IMEI number# method. I kept changing to T mobile, and all, until I got stuck with SPRINT.
Now I tried the *#272*IMEI number# method and it won't let me do it with SPRINT CSC.
HELP please ( I just want to go back to ATnT or T mobile again..
Hi guys,
I just gave me iphone xs max to my wife since her iphone 7 is already too buggy and slow. Now that I moved to s10+, I love it and but the customization option is overwhelming me. Happy though that its customizable.
Then I realize 1 critical thing. I bought a snapdragon USA version of AT&T from local importer. I am located in Asia. When I looked at the software version, its only at "G975USQU1ASD3" with security patch, March 2019. I tried for 2 days now to get the OTA update and it just wont come. Saying that I already got the latest update.
Naturally I checked google and found so many updates, and one of them, night mode in camera, I really want. Now I am a newbie in all of these. My question is.. how do I get the non OTA update? I don't have a PC, but I might be able to use my work PC. I do have an micro SD card.
In summary:
1. Where to find the update files? the non OTA version
2. Is it doable without PC?
3. Can I just jump to the latest firmware update, or do I have to do it manually one by one?
4. Will it wipe my phone, because I spent hours customizing it before checking the problem.
Thank you very much if there's anyone willing to help me figuring things out.
regards,

1.You can download firmwares on sammobile.com for your model
2.You can use work PC but need get small software named Odin and samsung drivers for correct work
3.You not need install one by one you can flash directly to latest one but must use HOME_CSC and make backup with samsung app named smart switch which is already on phone if not you can get it on Google Play Store

To try and force a change of the csc power down your phone, remove the SIM card and boot up your phone without any SIM inserted. After the phone has completely booted up insert your SIM and you should get a message that the network settings are being updated.
I purchased an unlocked AT&T S10+ as well to use on T-Mobile. Since you don't actually have AT&T service I would very strongly recommend that you flash the U1 (unlocked) firmware. There are instructions for doing this in another XDA thread.
AT&T firmware is modded specifically for their messaging, network and WiFi services. Since I'm not an AT&T customer I got no OTA updates until I flashed the U1 firmware. Immediately after flashing the U1 firmware and booting up OTA updates were available to download and I receive OTA updates when they are available so there's no further need to manually flash updates using a computer.
The current U1 firmware has night mode for the camera and was just updated this week to the August security patch (which is good for Samsung).

Hi thank you very much for your help. I appreaciate it. However, as you can see from my opening post, I kinda did a mistake and locked myself out of AT&T now.. I am stuck with Sprint after changing CSC 3x feeling safe.. then Spint removed my ability to change CSC via *#272*IMEI#
:crying::crying::crying:
You shouldn't need to change the CSC using the dial code. If you cold start your phone without a SIM card then insert the sim after your phone has fully booted up you should get a message about your network settings updating.
I would also still recommend flashing the U1 unlocked firmware.

Hi thanks again for replying to me. I tried many times doing this but as soon as my SIM card got in, SPRINT OMADM took over.. I can't even get rid of the notification.. sigh..
This might help:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/sp...-to-remove-sprint-omadm-notification-t3636264
That's apparently something annoying that's specific to Sprint.
To get rid of any US carrier stuff on your phone I would still suggest using the modified Odin (which can be found in the XDA firmware flashing threads for the S10+) and flash the U1 firmware version which is carrier free.
hi guys
I have At&t samsung s10 plus wont do any updates from Canada, im stuck with android 9 the o.s it came with,every time i try to update it tells me its up to date.
Smart Switch is no help it tells me phone is up to date also
any way around this?
I had updated at&t s7 and s8 in past in Canada and recently update Verizon s10 5g to andriod 10 in Canada.
you can try update on different wifi network or clear catche and try a update, else you can do it by Odin easily.

Maybe it hasn't been pushed to your device yet, there are plenty of people out there that haven't received the update yet.
If you don't have the patience to wait, then I suggest using Odin to update it manually.

You do understand that it can take several weeks to receive an update once released? Every company does a rolling update so it only hits so many devices at a time just in case there are reports of severe issues, they can pull it. You don't know which server your device for an update is sitting on with AT&T.
Patience is the key where updates are concerned, and it's better to sit back and see what the issues are over having to get the latest and greatest buggy software on your device instantly.

It wiped everything that AT&T had placed on the phone, the apps that are on my phone now are standard google apps
its as if the phone came from Samsung, no affiliation with any cellphone company.

I think what he is asking if it cleared all your apps that you already had installed and all your data.... Not the kind of apps you now you have.
XSP update isn't available yet for 10, it was then it disappeared which tells me it was pulled by Samsung most likely due to some issues.
