it may fail, but chances are it will work if you already have a carrier version. Rarely, the carriers differ in layout.
Reason for no OTA is, currently only Vodafone and TMobile are releasing MM for A3, and as i've noticed, strictly Europe so far.

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.
I never recieved an update to oreo o.t.a having an unlocked s7 edge. I spoke to vodafone who is my network provider who was first to roll out the update and told me the update has been pulled due to there being so many issues with the update. Bit annoyed now as some people seem to have updated with no problems at all and it looks like some of us may not see oreo at all on our devices.

This really looks ridiculous for me, to be honest. My dad has A5 2017 and he received Oreo last week. It's really a shame that flagship S7/S7 edge is facing this poor software update policy. I also saw that Note 8 users still haven't received Oreo. On Samsung Turkey webiste Oreo is listed in testing phase and date of release is set for May 18. I wouldn't be surprised if they delay it again.
They test Oreo on cheaper devices to get less complains. And less financial risk if the update goes wrong.
Also, usually the people that buy flagship devices usually "upgrade" selling those to second hand market. That's why the manufacturers don't update those devices so quickly - to push the "high rollers" to buy the new phones that have the newest bells and whistles.
Yes its been pulled back from the server for now. Can't say how much more delay is there for the worldwide rollout, but chances are near the end of may it will start rolling out again alongwith may security patch globally.
Sent from my S7 Edge using XDA Labs
I myself received the android 8.0 update (sm gt935f - brazil) and honestly i regreted that i did the update.
Now im having a lot of lag and drop in internet connection, both wifi and 4g connection. A lot of times my facebook, instagram and whatsapp are too slow. Youtube also lags a lot while trying to watch videos.
Reallt dont know what to do
And now it will be delayed again,shamesung what happen in the world,from april to mid april,then may to mid may,and now what? From may to forever waiting? Sad life
Thats so weird.Ive updated to oreo through ota almost 2 weeks ago and I had zero problems so far.The phone is smoother faster and I really enjoy the samsung experience ui.Battery life seems to be the same aa nougat though
Could i asked where you are based? Also what network carrier are you on?
on many video, s7 oreo make s7 fly like a unicorn, maybe they purposely delay so u might in the end fall into the trap of buying new phone? LOL

You said that you receveid that, but the G935FXXU2ERD5 is the Oreo from UK: https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/galaxy-s7-edge/SM-G935F/BTU/download/G935FXXU2ERD5/217550/
You probably had an earlier UK ROM installed to had receveid this new G935FXXU2ERD5.
I thought you were the first to receveid the unbranded Oreo ROM for S7 here in Brazil .

Maybe thats why im having those connections drops/lag? Or they are not related?
Thats what i though really odd. Im from BR, my mobile is G935FXXU2ERD5, and when i enter sammobile, there is NO RELEASE of android 8.0 for Brazil. So i guess i received this UK???

Yes, you received the ROM from UK.
It is expected that you have no problem, except the VOLTE that is specified region (you have to have a CSC from the region where the phone will be used).
There is no CSC from Brazil on 8.x yet and I do not know if previous CSC are compatible.

man are you using android 8.0 ? if so, which version
Hello guys,
I bought my Galaxy S8 last year from BestBuy New York, and I need your help to figure out my issues:
- Is there a different between SM-G950U and SM-G950U1? My phone is SM-G950U1.
- I currently live in UK and till now I haven't received the last software update -Android Pie- that I'm supposed to get in late April! and have't received any security patches updates either!!
- Bixby voice is not working at all, it stopped working 4 months ago and I don't know why! I talked to Samsung US and Samsung UK and they have no clue, we tried many different way to fix it but we had no luck. I factory reset my device twice without any success either.
So please you're my last hope here to solve my issues. I'm ready to answer any questions that you might have in mind regarding my phone.
Thanks,
Yusuf.

There's almost no chance you're going to find out why you're not getting updates. If your phone isn't updating automatically you can either download the entire latest firmware and flash it with Odin or go to firmware.science and download the individual OTA files then flash them in recovery manually one by one.

More than likely you don't have that original carrier sim in it. My Verizon phone won't get updated on my daughter's TracFone sim. But when i pop in the Verizon sim it updates

I know that if I come back to U.S and insert any SIM from any major mobile company it'll be updated immediately, however, when I was in Saudi Arabia - my home country - lat year, it updated to Oreo back then, so why I got the update while I'm in Saudi and not in UK?

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.
