S8 Duos G950FD - Dual SIM + MicroSD Card Trick Blocked in Latest Update - Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers

Dears,
I just updated the firmware of my S8 OTA and the SIM+MicroSD trick is now blocked, it is not even possible to enter to Android until the card is removed.
This trick was blocked last year by Samsung on Android 9 on the S9, and now it is included in the lastest Android 9 S8's firmware update. There is a thread within the S9 forum about how to remove the restriction in a S9 but requires rooting the phone.
For the moment I will revert to the latest Android 8 version I had yesterday using Odin, but is there are any suggestions for the S8 without rooting, it will be appreciated.
Regards,

Yes you can. As long as the firmware belong to N9100 you can. If the firmware belong to other variant like N910F then you can't

Verizon hasn't released Android 7 to the S7/S7 Edge yet.
There hasn't been any official word from Verizon on when they plan on releasing Android 7, but search for any information about it, a lot of different sites seem to think it's going to be sometime in March.
As for the root / unroot question, if KNOX was tripped during the rooting process, you may not be able to install the OTA update.
You might be able too using different software, which you should be able to find by searching the forum.
A handy tool to check of the CSC and KNOX were tripped or now, install the.

If it comes back saying Warranty Valid, then you should be able to install 7 no problem.
If it comes back saying Warranty Invalid, then you will probably need to wait until it's available for manual download.

That's great. The 935t is T-mobile. We have the 935v, which is Verizon. Which is what he was asking about.

Update my sim unlocked Sprint Galaxy S7 to stock Nougat will lock it again?

Hi guys,
First i need to say my android knowledge is less coz i am a guy who coming to android from iOS backyard. I recently bought a Samsung galaxy S7 in Singapore. I bought it from a generic shop(not from official Samsung shop)
Unfortunately I got to know from Samsung, this phone is a sim unlock phone which is originally belongs to Sprint USA. Currently It's running Android 6.0.1 and I can use my local Singapore sim. When I check the IMEI number from the web it says the model is "Galaxy S7 G930P". But within the phone settings it says the model number is "SM-G930F".
My question is, If i manually update to stock Android 7 by using Odin tool, will the phone is lock again? Help is highly appreciated
Thanks

Galaxy S7 Unlock Bootloader and Pie Roms?

Hi there. I have a SM-G930A (AT&T model) running Android 8.0 Oreo with the August 22, 2019 Bootloader (G930AUCSACSH3). I'm trying to figure out if there is a root and unlock for this device so I can run Pie on it, while also being able to use Samsung Apps? My college will not let any devices on the network that are running any version of Android older that 9.0. So I am kind of stuck. I have limited data to use, and had previously used this as my daily driver. I don't have the money to go out and just pick up a new phone. Any help would be appreciated ASAP.

Downgrading Firmware?

Hello,
I have a Galaxy S8 G950W. Currently I'm on Orea, but from my understanding, in order to root this version of the phone it needs to be on Nougat. I'm in the process of downloading the Nougat firmware for my specific version/carrier for the S8. Are there any guides on how to downgrade?
Side note; I'm also interested in LineageOS. After a few quick searches I wasn't able to find if there is a version for the Galaxy S8 G950W. Does anyone know?
Thanks!
