I am in the same boat. Mine is SM-G950FD (UAE version) bought from US and using in India. I am still on October 2018 patch. I got a few updates after I bought it, then it stopped. :crying:
I saw that some people who had bought from one country (UAE in particular) had their phone sensors bricked during earlier OTAs while they were in a different country. I hope that is the reason they are delaying updates for our phones and not because they blacklisted us.

Just a thought. Did you come back to India after Feb 2019? I came back during Nov-Dec 2018. I stopped receiving updates around that time. Could it be that Samsung don't push updates if we are not in the original country?

Sorry, I am not sure. In my case, the box had the country written and there were a few UAE specific apps.

I've searched through all the threads but none answered my question. I have an S8+ with XEU/XEU/VOD and have applied for the beta.
Am I even eligible for the update/will I get it?
In recovery and the samsung info app it says that my CSC is XEU, but there is still the VOD at the end...
SOLVED: If you are not getting the Oreo update but you have registered for beta, CLEAN flash either August or September firmware (through ODIN, no KNOX tripping, both available on sammobile) and the Oreo 8.0 update will be waiting for you straight away!

I don't know then, that's what happened to me anyway as you can see from the screen shot in post 2 xeu/xeu/h3g and that was after flashing xeu firmware and the csc (not the home_csc)
The 3rd line of the csc will stay the same unless you have another sim afaik.

Interesting, you're on the September security patch. I'm on October.
Someone was also saying to downgrade and then try to update to oreo. I already have it downloaded so once I get home I'll clean flash the September FW and try to download the beta. Cheers mate!

Where'd you manage to find the september FW? I'm struggling to find a link. This is my plan too. I'm on the latest BTU Firmware at the moment, registered for the beta but no update has come through and it's been over 24 hours. If you could link me I'd be very grateful!

One of my Friend bought g950u1 from us and he is using it in India now. He has been getting all the updates samsung pushed earlier. I am sure you guys will get the oreo update also, If it ever gets released.
Waiting forever for this update.

I dont think that is true, only a few carriers have implemented checks(AT&T for sure) to make sure you are using their sim before they let you download the update. It should not matter by region at all. The updates are pushed by IMEI series and not by geolocation.
I got the update today
Got the notice on my TMO running unlocked code today as well. Has anyone installed it yet? Any issues? How's battery life?

I am using on sprint, installed the OTA yesterday. My experience with battery life has been worse than the beta version I was on.
So is there a way to stop the update? I want to let it bake a bit. I thought I could go into Dev Options and disable Auto System Update but as soon as I got home and on WiFi it started downloading Oreo.

Hi,
I purchased an S10+ from Telus today and I was wondering what firmware I can use to update it. I'm on February security level and I believe there is more recent available.
Based on a thread in the Guides section, the Muti CA. Firmware doesn't cover the TLS "region"
Thank you.

The latest firmware ends with VLU1ASBA and has a February security patch. If that's what you see. You're on the same firmware as everyone else with Telus and most likely Canada.

I'm not aware of being able to cross flash. I would suspect that if possible, it would probably be destructive to the data on the phone. Perhaps one of the more modding savvy folks can chime in and provide better instructions.

Not necessarily an original device. Download Smart Switch on your computer then plug your device, if it recognizes it then update it from there. If it doesn't, then it's a fake.

What is the current build name? Download Phone Info from the Play Store and see if its a genuine Samsung device. Have a feeling its a knock-offf, hoping its not but your firmware is too old for this model.

I have tried manual update from the phone and with PC (Smart Switch); clear cash, reset the phone...nothing => it is saying I have the last update.
I have an S10+ bought from UK but I am using it in Romania
