Upgrade Galaxy S8 Active G892A from BRC4 to BRD4 - Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers

Hi guys,
I saw on AT&T site, that the new (latest) FW G892AUCS2BRD4, require previous FW "BRC5". But my current FW is G892AUCU2BRC4.
Need help to upgrade to the current version from my current. Possible or i need another (complete) FW for upgrade from BRC4?
Best regards

I got a S8 Active also and it is G892AUCS2BRE3
Just an FYI, fwiw.

Please forgive me for tagging on your post but here with an S8 Active and want to use a DeX station. My understanding is that it does not have the necessary function as part of its ROM. Is there any ports from a standard S8 or S8+ which may enable DeX functions on an S8 Active?
Thank You!

It just works out of the box or are you using a custom rom of some sort? I am about to buy the Dex Station but if the pad works I will buy that instead! Also - newer as in there is 2 different releases of the dex pad??
THanks again!

Thanks again! Got my DexPad and sadly the current rom I have loaded does not pop up with the Dex options. Could you please post a link to where you got the rom you mentioned above?
Thanks

I am not running a ROM, it just works. It wouldn't make much sense if the hardware had to work with specific ROMs. So what Baseband version do you have??

My current baseband is G892USQS1AQL1 but I am about to load G892USQS3BRH2, hopefully that will work... I had simply read that the S8 Active firmware did not come preloaded with the Dex 'bits' and had seen suggestion to use system app mover to add it from S8 or S8+.

[Q] SM-T330 vs SM-T330NU - firmware

Are the firmwares for the tablets in subject interchangeable? the NU is the North American version and I'm wondering if I could flash a European version of the T330 to support mode languages. I want to add that sammobile has the firmwares listed under different codes.
Anybody knows if it is possible to flash an LTE firmware on the WIFI version of the same tablet? Thanks

I dont know, but I highly advise not install LTE on WiFi only tab, since there are hardware differences and you most likely will brick your tab

Hi,
do you've already got any further information on this? For I have the same problem: in the US we purchased a tab for my mom, but she isn't doing too well with the english UI (though she already got used to it - it's still android, after all ).
Anyway: there's also a WiFi-Version (SM-T330NZWADBT) of this tablet. Is there anywhere a firmware available for download for this particular model? And: is the firmware interchangeable in this case, as it's wifi-to-wifi straight?

So can I install firmware from sm-t230 on sm-t230NU cause I want Polish language. or it's hidden and hidden languages are achievable with morelocale2?
"Locale More" did the job for me, all it requires is to run one adb command and it works well without root.

Ok mate Here is the Solution that worked for me... (if you want your native Language)
1.Install Offical Firmware from sammobile.com of Canada with Product Code : XAC
2.Root your device.
3.Download Language Enabler from the Play Store
And Walla.... Work perfectly for me.

Thank you for asking the stupid question I was too afraid to ask but needed the answer too. I just successfully rooted my SM-T530NU, next I was looking for a custom recovery. Does anyone know if recoveries that say they're for the SM-T530 will work for the NU version? Specifically, I was thinking about using the TWRP in this thread but I'm nervous about using a custom recovery with a different model number. If the only difference is in fact the IR blaster then I'm inclined to believe the custom recovery is safe, I just was hoping someone could give me some feedback so I wasn't going blind. Thanks in advance, any input is greatly appreciated
hi,
just a thought about compatibility, i'm working on a rom build for the sm-t531 which i run on my sm-t530nu [it runs on both]
the sm-t53xx are largely the same as well as nearly the same as the sm-t33xx's, it's likely that as long as you keep
your kenel and modules sorted, the roms can like be used interchangeably.
Further the same rom i'm working on boots on my sm-t330nu albeit with screen glitches.
goto gsmarena andmcompare the specs between the galaxy tab 4 10.1 and 4 8.0 and youll see what i mean.
so if one variants firmware or new firmware get a new feature it's probably highly and easily portable.

Thanks for the help I was more stuck on installing a custom recovery but I gave it a try and TWRP installed successfully. Now it's time to start playing around with some ROM(s). If you just give me another day to get acclimated to this tablet and learn my way around it, I'd be happy to start testing your rom or any others, if and when they are ready to be tested
So then what is different between the t530nu and T530NZWAXAR model? I have found both and am confused. I am looking at purchasing larger screened tablet. We currently own several smaller tablets and I wish to stick with Samsung as it has been the best manufactured one for are use, but am unclear if there is a difference.

I tend to agree. I've got two of these and after a year they're both dogs. Terrible battery life, random reboots ànd both have random restarts and freezes.

Thank you for your help, but my device is the Galaxy J3 Luna Pro SM-327VL so i think that there might be a difference in GSM as opposed to CDMA as you model number is SM-337TL, so it is failing for me when I try to flash through ODIN.
Any thoughts?
Thanks,
Tyler

You definitely don't want to flash the wrong firmware. You might search around XDA and the web and see if you can find the firmware for your specific model. It's on the same site mine originated from - https://firmware.gem-flash.com/index.php?a=browse&b=category&id=8204 . What i shared here i bought since it was a clients phone and i needed it. They do deliver and you wont get ripped off. I would only use this as your last choice if you cant find it anywhere else.
Good luck

J5 2016 (J510F) and Dexcom integration

Hello
I need to use my Galaxy J510F with the Dexcom G5 Mobile app (it's for connecting diabetic sensors via Bluetooth).
The problem is that Dexcom only supports Samsung J5 [SM-A530 Model Only] (Android 8.1.0)...
I can install the app on my phone but I get a message that it cannot run because it's not supported in this phone model.
https://www.dexcom.com/dexcom-international-compatibility
I want to ask if there is something to do, to fool the app that this is the compatible model, or maybe flash it to another version...
thanks in advance...:good:
