So to be all clear.

I have SEE AQK7. So only i have to download and push with Odin DBT AQL5 and theb push update CRAP via adb?

It doesnt matter that i have SEE and and putting DBT?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] hugoprh:
Just give a try, if it fails, it shouldn't brick your phone, I tried on mine and it failed, the sideload ran till 40% and then it failed, but I just restarted the phone and all was fine, in the end had to use Odin to flash the latest Nougat and then applied the upgrade to Oreo and all good now :)

Hi guys im on November patch with CSC code ORX(orange slovakia)

[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] qpkqkma:
Yup, also from Slovakia and flash to German ROM, than i was a few days on ZRA5 and now CRAP ;)

Downgrade from Oreo to Nougat

Is it possible to downgrade from Oreo(non-beta user) to Nougat.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] crincron:
Hi everyone I am looking for help with something

I am using S8 G950F. I went from official OTA AQL5 to Oreo (CRAP) with no problem. I previously had status 7 when I tried this but it turns out I was trying to flash the wrong file. If anyone else is having the same problem make sure you are downloading thw right file from the original post!They are divided by your phones model number and what software you are running.

The thing I need help with is that my google play store says "uncertified" when I check the settings in the app store. Ndorid pay is still working and I can download apps fine..so is it a big deal? I tried to wipe cahce/date, disable then enable but didnt work. I went nuclear with a factory reset (partially cuz I like to set up fresh with new software) but still says its uncertified. My phone status is official so not sure why its saying uncertified. Is this something I need to worry about? Will it affect me in any way.

Also thank you to original poster, Oreo is awesome! NO more checking software update 20 times a day.!
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] qpkqkma:
Uff, dont remember exactly, but I´ll just do backup and do a factory reset....

No issues at all :good::good::good:
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] vemakohe:
Ok but latest software versiom from german DBT is AQL5 not this ZRA5 so?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] mrbenbiz:
German DBT can be update via OTA, since few hours ago, CRAP FW is live, so hit the Download updates manually from Software Update and your will be OTA updated.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] hickup:
Went from aql5 directly to crap (in OP). All data was kept, but because of a major uodate I did a factory reset afterwards.

---------- Post added at 11:42 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:40 AM ----------

[MENTION=5408577]Humayuncool[/MENTION] received it this morning and wasn't in beta program.

The problem is that i have a ITV CSC. I didn't find a way to change csc to DBT in my S8. Is there a method without root or not?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] ace-user:
Followed the instructions and everything was smooth flashing ZRA5 from AQL5, but from ZRA5 when I try to 'Install Update from ADB' , the recovery keeps rebooting instead of letting me actually flash and go through the installation process. Does anyone know what could be the problem?

I have an S8+ SM-G955FD, would appreciate if you guys could help me out.

p/s: I don't have an SD card.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] mrbenbiz:
Maybe this video will help you to change your CSC, but i think that with this method you have to insert a SIM of the region you want to switch, like example German SIM.

Guide Installation OREO Official Samsung Galaxy S8 G950F (Knox 0x0) - THX to Cyberon

1. Do not consider the Word file in the compressed folder because it is a first version of this Guide;

2. Before starting: 1) check that the battery is charged (at least 60%); b) delete the cellular cache going to settings / maintenance device / storage memory / and click on "clean now";

3. Download the files to proceed from this link: https://mega.nz/#!mF0w3ITK!TFMFlEsnJcxAPYxBaR_WTfDyw1FqNCpsbKXsEzHiLvQ (link created by me);

4. Switch off your S8;

5. from off, press the Bixby key, the power key and the volume down key (vol-) simultaneously. Your smartphone will switch back on in Download mode and click on volume (vol +);

6. Now connect your smartphone to the PC using the cable supplied and launch Odin on the PC and check that it is correctly connected in Download mode (you must see written COM - and the number of the assigned port - in the IDCOM square);

7. In Odin, click on the BL button and access the directory "1" containing the Odin firmware files, and select the file that starts with BL (the firmware is the English BTU Original);

8. Do the same for AP, CP and CSC too (the file will start with HOME_CSC - it will not delete anything on your phone);

9. Click on the Odin start button;

10. The flash process will start, after which the smartphone will restart;

11. Once restarted, copy the update.zip file (located in the "2" directory) to the sdcard;

12. Switch off your smartphone again and switch it on again, this time in Recovery mode, by simultaneously pressing the Bixby button, the power button and the volume up (vol +) button;

13. From the smartphone's Recovery mode menu, move to the "Apply update from SD card" item using the volume keys and select it using the power button;

14. Find the "update.zip" file with the volume keys and select it using the power button;

15. Make it work and wait for it to restart itself;

16. Enjoy !!!

N.B. By following this procedure you not lose Knox warranty 0x0;

NB.2. This installation does not involve the cancellation of anything (No Wipe);

N.B.3. I do not take responsibility for any blockages or other;

N.B.4. Procedure tested and functioning by myself.

By Ciccio80
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Ker21:
Only we with 8+ having that problem, and if I understand correctly that happened because we didn't do full wipe. Also GPlay see device as uncertified but everything works perfectly. I'm getting sd card today and I'm gonna try with that metod. If that doesn't work I will wait for odin crap.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Shaamaan:
It worked for me. The system's updated and I've got Oreo. :D

That said, if I check for updates manually, I get a service error. I HOPE this is because I updated early and not because something broke. :|

EDIT: NVM to the above. Must have been a temporary fluke. Either that, or the update has gone live in my region as well.

I had to re-flash a German (DBT) AQL5 (choosing CSC and not HOME_CSC in Odin, wipes phone data!!) and install ZRA5 and then ultimately CRAP. And it worked.

If you think its worth the hassle, since Oreo OTA is rolling out now in EU for non-beta testers :D:D, go for it.

Also I have downloaded the German OREO version but it gives me error Set Partition on ODIN 3.12.10 if I put CSC Wipe. If I put CSC no wipe flasha instead the files in 5 seconds but does not update. Reading a discussion on an Italian site that reports "Due to a new compression format of image files adopted by Samsung (lz4), it would seem that the current known versions of Odin are not able to" read "the various firmware packages causing the installation procedure to stop. ". So who can find Odin flashing the lz4 files? We hope that we find a solution among all of us.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] neflictus:
I was sure it was Odin. Guess we'll have to wait and see if a new version appears.

[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] firefds:

[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] redbullman:
I'm sorry this is a lie. It has been pulled by Samfirmware because Odin can't read the new compression in the firmware file. Nobody can install it.
