Thanks Xdanilva but will just stay on CRA9. It works good and just too much problem to get to CRAD. Stay here until AT&T has the OTA of Oreo out for us and Flash back to 2BQL1 so will get the OTA to Oreo. What is the date and time in the U2CRAD Build? Thanks again.

[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Guides, News, & Discussion] tailgunner9:
2ZRAE Now that is one I have not heard of. What is the Date and Time of these recent builds 2ZRAE & 2CRAD from someone who has them installed already. Please let us know.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Dudash:
I posted about ZRAE a page or so back as being the latest build but as far as we know, it hasn't been released publicly or on ATT servers. CRAD was the latest build a few days ago and we just now got access to it.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Guides, News, & Discussion] tailgunner9:
Sorry Dudash I missed that page on ZRAE. Do you know the Build date of it and time???
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Dudash:
I may be wrong but I don't think it's possible to know without actually having a copy of the update. The site doesn't have times or dates but it was just changed today so the build date must be either today or yesterday.

The build date on CRAD is 1-17 though so that should give us a pretty good idea of when ZRAE was built.

Thanks for helping out with OREO 2 links. The AQGL link says XAS, is that an unlocked firmware with no bloatware? or will it include any Sprint/T-mobile bloat?
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Reechings:
Anyone figured out a way to get rid of battery icon in status bar but keep percentage? System UI tuner could do this on Nougat but now removes both as one item. Changing the battery icon would be cool but I'm sure it's not possible.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Guides, News, & Discussion] cam30era:
This Oreo is a beta (test) OS. Those users who are part of the official Samsung test program will receive OTA updates from Samsung. Those of us who flashed this zip from the OP, have taken a back door approach to update to Oreo. We will not receive OTA updates until we revert back to "official" Nougat. Hence my use of the term "stock". Sorry if I wasn't clear....
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Guides, News, & Discussion] dmezh:
We currently don't have an unlocked-firmware Oreo CSC. This combo will install some bloat (only two apps from T-Mobile for me) from whichever carrier your currently-inserted SIM card is from.

I went from beta 1 to QGL last night and didn't have any issues. Used odin 3.12.7 I believe.

How is beta 1? Should I wait? I had signed up. But never got update. Was wondering if its because I'm on unlocked firmware

can i add the file to my sdcard?
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Guides, News, & Discussion] rizzo269:
Beta 2 has been eating more battery up for me than beta 1. The Samsung keyboard crashes on beta 2 as well. I'll stick it out since I don't feel like rolling back to QGL to flash beta 1. Lol. The only difference I noticed is the settings on my Verizon model is now like the unlocked version on beta 2.

I was getting pretty solid battery life on beta 1. Oreo seems to have some advantages there for sure.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Guides, News, & Discussion] cam30era:
Several users have done that, but I have not personally used. So it sounds like you have a driver issue with Windows 10. Follow the steps in the OP of this thread if you want to install the correct drivers > https://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s8+/how-to/snap-guide-flashing-standard-fw-carrier-t3627255

I never let it boot up all the way, I have secure boot enabled so whenever it asked for my pin to boot up before booting Android I just powered down and booted back into recovery to sideload the next update.

ive been flashing these builds since the beginning, but just hit a snag trying to go to CRAD. Odind back to BQL1 and applied the first update to 2ZQKS. applied successfully and phone rebooted, now stuck at the Black Samsung bootscreen. If i press Vol Down and Power i can reboot it but i cant get back to recovery. Any way to fully power off the phone so I can get back to recovery?

Even when i force reboot it and get the keys pressed for recovery i can hold them forever and never move past the boot screen.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Guides, News, & Discussion] hmltnjrmy7:
I had this happen once. I was able to get around it by holding the sequence buttons to get into download mode. Before it boots up, I immediately then I hold recovery sequence buttons and was able to get into recovery. if this makes sense.Might work for you?
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Guides, News, & Discussion] sfld:
Try holding vol down + bixby + power, see if you can get into adb mode. If you can you might have to just do a adb reboot recovery command to get back there.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Guides, News, & Discussion] 94tbird:
I was able to get into download mode, but unable to get into recovery from there at all. I reflashed through Odin, and when it rebooted it told me my storage was corrupted and asked me to reset it. I let it reset, now i am back in recovery and applying the first update again.

Thanks guys, will report back on how it turns out.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Guides, News, & Discussion] sfld:
You should be good to go if you got to that step. The corrupted part happened a few times in the past and it updated with no problem.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Guides, News, & Discussion] hmltnjrmy7:
Mine did the same, storage corrupt, blah, blah must do factory reset. I did not have to reset. I was able to get to recovery by what I mentioned. Nothing had to be wipe. If you run across this again, try this, it works.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Guides, News, & Discussion] 94tbird:
I got updated all the way to CRAD this time but the first boot after successfully updating told me it was corrupt again. I just let it reset this time again. I can restore anything i need.

Morons.... It's always gonna say data corrupt if you try to boot into nougat after being on Oreo. You gotta immediately boot into recovery and flash Oreo update. It's not rocket science. It's been said literally hundreds of times. I don't feel sorry for anyone that is completely ignorant
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Guides, News, & Discussion] 94tbird:
I didn't boot into nougat. I odined to BQL1, and when it finished I applied the first oreo update. It got stuck and said encryption data corruption error or something similar after I was all done. I never once booted into Nougat.

The first half of that entire article is misleading. They come across like it's an OTA, even with a picture of a device checking for updates, but then later name their source, which is where I first read about this earlier, where they state that it only happens when you hook your phone up to the computer and use Smart Switch.

You should've just shared the original SamMobile article.
