G950F help - Beta 4 to latest update - Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers

Hello,
I have manually installed the beta of pie on my galaxy s8. But now I want to go the latest update of pie. Only problem is. I don't get the ota update.
Is there an other way to install it? I can't find any good tutorials.
It's also important that I don't have to wipe my phone.
See the attachment for the software info

You can download latest firmware from sammobil or updato ( websites ) or use samfirm or frija ( PC program ) for your device and region.
Then use Odin to flash firmware. To keep data you would use the home_csc ( not CSC ) that comes with the firmware.
I also recommend doing a backup first just in case.

Try this from Sammobile for Telnor
If you want a Generic Norwegian version change TEN in the firmware to NEE, you will need to register to download
Download the zip, extract the md5 and flash with Odin PDA

Just flash the latest NEE rom with Odin 3.09, then boot into recovery and data factory reset and see if the NEE csc file is loaded. If its not reflash the rom again with Odin and reboot and that should do it.

- Can you show your CSC? It is important thing to check when you want to download the firmware. Check your CSC with Phone INFO ★Samsung★ app.
- You can also open this Phone INFO ★Samsung★ app > Menu > 'Firmware Browser' to download the firmware for your device.

Hi.In that page there is no update...The last update from 31.01.2017,that sammobile and samsung-updates says there is one,in updato.com no such thing!.
Try flashing another country or just wait (it might take a while ) untill appears. Or you can try using SamFirm_v0.3.6 (https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-tab-s/general/tool-samfirm-samsung-firmware-t2988647) to check on samsung servers for firmware .

¿Method for downgrade Pie to Oreo?

Hi all
I am a guy from Spain and I am using Google translator, I hope all understand all me well.
I have an S8+ updated to Android Pie and after testing it several days I did not like it.
I tried to install Oreo using Odin but it gives me an error.
Searching for information, I found I can not do downgrade because of a binary boot number.
is there another method to install stock Oreo rom? Could it by root?
I never performed root, i'm noob.
I would appreciate any help. Thanks and best regards

Do you have the newest Odin version?
Have you ever tried it on another computer?
Have you ever tried it with a 4tlg.Firmware? (Download with SamFirm)

Hi.
Yes, the latest version of Odin: Odin3-v3.13.1
Yes, 1 pc with Windows 7 and another with Windows 10.
I've never tried a 4tlg.Firmware, I do not even know what it is.
As I commented in the messenge I read that odin can not be downgrade because it changes a binary number of the boot between Pie and Oreo ¿not? (or something like that happens).
Thank you very much for the reply.

In the firmware name you download the binary number ( bootloader version ) is the fifth (5) number from the right. In your case 4 is your binary number.
Eg: G955FXXS4CRLB - 4 is the binary(bootloader) number. You can only flash version 4 or higher not 3 or lower.
Download firmware from.sammobil or.updato
Eg: G955FXXS4CSB1 ( PHE ) is Oreo Feb release.
Don't know if your on carrier firmware or not?
Unzip downloaded firmware using 7zip,WinRAR or any zip program that supports lz4 compression ratio. There will be 5 files.
Note: It is recommended to a clean install when downgrading so do a backup first.
1. In Odin from the extracted files place:
BL in BL section
CP in CP section
AP in AP section
CSC in CSC section - use the CSC file not the Home CSC file. This will do a clean install same as a factory reset.Wait for Odin to load files
2. Put phone in download mode and connect to PC
3. When Odin see's the phone then hit the start button.
4. When finished phone should reboot then run through the setup and restore your backups.

It has worked! Yeah! It was as you explained.
The problem I had was that I was getting a firmware with the binary number 3 because it was the last one in SamMobile for the normal S8 + (SM-G955F), to download the one you put me in, I searched for the S8 + dual sim (SM- G955FD).
Updato has very slow downloads, three days to download the firmware.
¡I thank you very much for the help! Without you I would not have achieved it.
:good::good: :highfive:

Hello bro , I read your all posts, I also want to roll back I also know every steps, but now I want to hear from you " If all the apps working Ok ?? Like samsung pay and samsung health etc. ?? KNOX is 0*0 or 0*1 ??

Hi bro.
Yes, all apps work correctly: Samsung Pay and samsung health perfectly and all the others.
My case is with Spain PHE firmware.
The Knox is 0 * 0, using official stock firmwares the Knox never rises.
After returning to Oreo, remember to freeze the software update process so that it does not search or update again to Pie. You have to do it by adb
If you continue with doubts, you ask me
And the files downloaded from Updato and Sanmobile are stock? I have S8 and want to downgrade from Pie to Oreo, I have G950FXXS5DSF1 bootloader 5, the oreo files are with bootloader 4 (not 100%), can I do this downgrade? or it will get bricked? knox tripped?

Hello.
I'm afraid you can not download the version because it's a 5 and Oreo only has up to 4.
Maybe I can install a version of Pie 4 and then download it to Oreo 4, but I'm not sure about it.
Hi, did you make it? Did it help?

Samsung Galaxy S8 G950W (PIE Update)

I have Samsung Galaxy S8 G950W having Android 7.0 with Samsung Experience 8.1 and Baseband Version G950WVLS2ARA1. I intend to update it to 9.0. Where can I find its official update through Odin installation? I'm not in the region to find OTA.
Thanks
Use updato.com. You can use SamMobile but it takes years without a premium account. HOWEVER YOU CAN'T FLASH THE NEWEST SOFTWARE IF THE PHONE IS WAY BEHIND..... EITHER FLASH THE FIRMWARE BUT THAT ALLOWS OTA UPDATES OR FLASH EVERY FIRMWARE ONE BY ONE. I hope this helped:laugh:
I have found G950WVLU5CSD5_G950WOYA5CSD5_VMC and downloaded. But am not yet sure about the right firmware. Is there any way to get it confirmed?

As long u are searching for correct model of your phone u are good to go
U can use sammobile,updato.com, samfrew.com to download firmware for your model ( there is even samfirm pc app to download firmware at full speed)
Also u can flash pie or any other release without needing to install one by one firmware as suggested above.
Good to go. Trying...
