So yesterday I updated from Nougat (not rooted) to Oreo. After I updated I had some issues with my SIM. Basically most of the time I get "Out of service/Not registered in the Network". The SIM is working fine in other Phones. Already tried a reformat (with Stock Recovery) did not help.
So can I just use Odin v3.12 and the S8 Nougat files and flash them?
Will it brick If I do it?
The Oreo Firmware (and my phone) has no carrier. (DBT, Germany)
Same goes for the Nougat Firmware.
Thanks
Phone Info:
- SM-G950F
- Exynos variant
- DBT (unbranded)

Hi, in this case the Knox is altered? I was reading something about the new Oreo bootloader that would not allow the downgrade. Thank you and sorry for my English!

Are the firmwares for G955F and G955FD the same?
My friend has the FD version with G955FXXU1CRB7 - CSC ILO (ISRAEL), but I can't find G955FXXU1AQK7 for the FD version for CSC ILO.
Can I use the firmware for the F variant with Odin?
He is having terrible battery issues with Oreo, wiped data using stock recovery but it won't help.
Downgrade from CRAP (8.0) to AQL5 (7.0) and now I have a DRK error and it automatically starts the recovery, some help?
You can't downgrade via odin. You can only flash the same firmware or higher.

Can you downgrade SM G950U from Oreo nougat?
Greetings pals i have a really big question, i got a S7 Edge from AT&T (SM-G935A) but i cant update to nougat so i flash the unlocked (SM-G935U) firmware to get Nougat so i just wanna go back to AT&T but i cant via odin i downloaded a lot of firmwares labeled to 935A but when i try to flasg via odin it stucks at File analysis and thats it, also i tried with another (older) version of odin and it gives me a soft brick the main cause i want to go back to AT&T its because i want to try Oreo Beta but im stuck
Any help would be appreciated and if something its wrong with this let me know
Hello Everyone
I've been searching for some information regarding galaxy s7 edge at&t but i cannot find specific info related upgrading this phone from nougat 7.0 to oreo 8.0 ? My phone is unlocked so i'm using different carrier but i believe bootloader of the phone is still locked so i cannot flash custom recovery or custom roms. My intention is flashing official oreo 8.0. What is the official oreo for this model ? Actually there are some that i found on the forum but i'm a bit confused which one it is. Is it possible to flash official oreo 8.0 without unlocking bootloader via odin ( people say you cannot unlock bootloader of U.S. versions ) ? If it is possible how can i flash it ? will be appreciated for any suggestions .
Thank you
Search for androidfilehost on google enter the site and search for G935A and you could use the first file , i'm currently using it (you'll need odin if you want to flash it , if you want any help ask) Have fun!

here ya go mate
https://www.sammobile.com/samsung/galaxy-s8/firmware/SM-G950F/VOD/download/G950FXXS5DSI6/292990/
use the frija tool or samfirm to download it. takes 1/4th the time as sammobile throttles like s#it
Thanks mate, yeah it was a rite pain in the ass waiting, but I did get the correct firmware, turns out I needed the btu version, now I'd only I could get root access.
Will bookmark that.
Hey guys, I have a Samsung S8 which I was running LinageOS on but now was to revert back to the stock android ROM.
The issue I have is it appears to be a South Koera (KTC) phone, but it always has this KTMobile crap on it when I flash it. So my question is can I flash another firmware?
I need some help understanding the different components made up in the firmware and what I can and cannot deviate from (to avoid bricking).
AP
CSC
BL
CP
Which of these HAVE to be the same? Im guessing bootloader (BL) must match otherwise I will brick it.
There is also a little confusion over weather it is a SM-G950F or a SM-G950N. I have seen the phone report both.
Is there a way or a firmware I can flash without all the KTMobile crap on it, or could I just flash a New Zealand firmware as I am based in New Zealand.
The firmware I installed currently is G950NKSU5DUA2, but it is buggy and is causing crashes. Can I deviate from this G950NKSU5DUA2 and chose a different firmware?
Thanks in advance.
