Thanks; but I'm divorced from AT&T, so can't get FOTA's. I'm having to do it the unofficial way.

---------- Post added at 06:27 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:18 AM ----------

Looking further; I found the Official AT&T Odin CRE1 files. So; I'm guessing that's the one I want to use to downgrade before upgrading?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discuss] Venom0642:
Correct , Then you can upgrade from N950USQUS4CRE1 to 4CRF3
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discuss] vin_001:
The OTA for 4CRF3 must be for just ATT at the moment. Unlocked XAA still shows CRE1 as latest
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discuss] gregcapps:
I've been using the samfirm tool to download Odin firmware packages lately. When I checked last night, I was still seeing CRE1 though
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discuss] Venom0642:
Takes a few days to a week for new ones to appear.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discuss] gregcapps:
I must have gotten lucky because when CRE1 came out, I downloaded it the same day.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discuss] ShrekOpher:
***Nevermind the below tried a different cord and a different USB port and it went through. Thanks>

Hey guys was trying to flash back to CRE1 to take the OTA and I am getting an error in ODIN (All threads complete. (Succeed 0 /Failed 1) Any ideas

I am using the firmware posted in the thread for CRE1 can't figure out why it won't push it through.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discuss] bboii86:
It might be the odin you're using. Try this one.

DOWNLOAD for ODIN:

Little off topic

I noticed with latest builds on tmobile package disabler pro not working anymore
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discuss] kangi26:
I've heard that too. No fix that I've seen as of yet
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discuss] Venom0642:
Are you talking about this one https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.powermanager.batteryaddon

cause works on my Note 8 latest build and works on my S9 Plus as well.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discuss] EzEddie:
This just showed up for me also on the latest build. It was never there for me until now on CRF3. I checked before and after update.

Another thing since updating to CRF3 yesterday is the wifi and LTE icon are both showing at the same time. Is this happening to anyone else?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discuss] Venom0642:
No doesn't happen to me.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discuss] ipodhacked86:
Happens to me once in a while
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discuss] Venom0642:

Has anyone noticed your messages not getting sent?

Lately I've noticed not all my messages go through to whoever I'm texting. I had recently updated the Samsung messages so I'm thinking perhaps that could be the problem? It wasn't happening prior to that update...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discuss] Venom0642:
Works fine on My AT&T Note 8 since day one when that S9 Plus mms came out.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discuss] eshipp31:
Older versions

Looks like they killed all of the older versions and only new versions worked I didn't have any problems with older versions
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discuss] ShrekOpher:
Are you running a Substratum theme on this?

Do they have that up and running for the note 8 on Android 8.0 now?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discuss] Venom0642:
What do you mean Package Disabler Pro has nothing to do with Substratum, So don't understand your question.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discuss] stek-kravari:
Here is the latest official build N950USQU4CRF3

Download link: https://drive.google.com/uc?id=1f5OO5ev0jCMfU1fCJIIUtoAy537brB5Q&export=download

1.) Hold down Volume Up + Home + Power until you see a little Android guy. It will say Applying System Update or something like that possibly, and just let it do it's thing until a menu comes up.

2.) Select "Apply update from ADB". You can scroll using the volume buttons and select using the power button.

3.)Put the firmware in the ADB folder. You can rename it to anything easy to remember like "FIRMWARE".

4.) In the ADB folder, hold SHIFT + right mouse click and choose "Open command window here". Then type the command "adb sideload FIRMWARE" (where FIRMWARE is how you named your file).

5.) Wait patiently.

6.) The phone will reboot and will hang at AT&T logo. This can take another 10 minutes, just wait until it's done.

How long does it take the unlocked XAA models to receive the latest security patch? I'm still on CRE1
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discuss] mammothjojo88:
I think he was meaning two separate things. I also got the update for package disabler. Oh BTW venom I added you on Hangouts. I wanted to PM you a question. I think you might have the answer :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discuss] Venom0642:
I don't use Hangouts no longer for years , I'm on Telegram.

Could anyone get the latest Samsung Experience Home to go into landscape mode? Apparently we could now, but I'm still missing the setting... Can someone help me?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discuss] gregcapps:
Works for me on my Verizon Note8
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discuss] vin_001:
What software version though? Cuz im still stuck on CRE1 if that matters
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discuss] gregcapps:
I'm on CRF3. Why are you still on CRE1?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discuss] vin_001:
Because the Unlocked XAA firmware is still only on CRE1 :silly:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discuss] gregcapps:
Sorry....I don't keep track of the unlocked firmware updates.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discuss] vin_001:
No it's okay :good: They usually wait until each carrier receives the update first before they push it out to the unlocked folks
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discuss] jack man:
That's interesting. I'm on the latest OTA release which is 4CRF3, and the version of Samsung Experience Home is earlier than yours. And for those asking about homescreen rotation, I do not have the setting in my home screen settings. Probably another feature blocked by AT&T for absolutely no reason at all.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discuss] gregcapps:
It only got added to the most current release of the launcher.

It was only added to 9.0.10.76 make sure you download the latest version. Not the one linked.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discuss] jack man:
Is there really any significant difference in the latest version other than landscape capability compared to the one I'm on (that I posted a pic of earlier)?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discuss] gregcapps:
It dosen't seem to have noticable changes other than that. I could be wrong. I prefer to update to the newer versions when they are available, just my preference though.

Don't forget once you flash this you will not be able to go back this has the new bootloader v5, I am not Responsible if you flash this.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discuss] gregcapps:
Ummmm.....@#$%& No.....not again without the Odin base.

Thanks, but no thanks.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discuss] jmdomini:
What's up with all the bootloader updates on the North America version? I believe the international version has been on V3 for quite some time if I'm not mistaken.

Think I will leave well enough alone seeing that there's a CRF9 and CRG1 in the pipeline on FOTA Test. No doubt they will require flashing back to CRF1 to update which we can't do.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discuss] Koizuma:
I'm on 4CRD2, is there any non-OTA update for this? On the Samsung firmware link the lowest F/W they have listed that semi-matches is 4CRD5.

Or can I just go from 4CRD2 right to 4CRD7? Or whatever the latest is.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discuss] iteam:
So it seems the bootloader 5 is a contender for the next OTA
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discuss] bboii86:
Already showing another possible update CRG1

http://fota-cloud-dn.ospserver.net/firmware/ATT/SM-N950U/version.test.xml

This is why I don't like updating to a new bl version. As soon as they release an update, they have another one in the works lol good thing I didn't update.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discuss] Venom0642:
Doesn't matter at least to me since i also have S9 Plus, And no matter what next OTA will be with bootloader v5 , so really not stuck on 5CRF6 , Which i also think it will be the OTA, since flashing , Safetynet and Playstore is certified.

---------- Post added at 02:20 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:19 PM ----------

Also 5CRF6 is actually running a bit better than 4CRF3.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discuss] bboii86:
I'm waiting for CRG1 or whatever build they decide to release to be official and playstore certified. Then I'll update. CRF6 is a bit early :silly:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discuss] Venom0642:
Really doesn't bother me lol since i use the S9 Plus more and hsve few more of theses phones. Lol

Anyone testing newer versions also have the LED View case? Ever since updating to 4CRF3, notification functionality has been broken on the case and I'm curious if anyone has seen differently on newer releases.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discuss] Lavman72:
Quick question..currently on N950USQU3CRC2. And just to get there, I had to install via ODIN. My phone has never received an OTA from AT&T (I did purchase it directly from Samsung)

Can I update directly to N950USQUS4CRE1 using the link in the OP, or do I need to update to 4CRD7 first, then to 4CRE1?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discuss] bboii86:
You can just flash directly to CRE1.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discuss] kangi26:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discuss] vin_001:
Is it just me or is unlocked XAA still on CRE1? Shouldn't we get new patches before carriers or after?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discuss] jmdomini:
Yes, XAA is still on CRE1. Samsung does not update the unlocked version until all of the carrier versions have been updated. For some reason that has not yet happened with the June patch (i.e. US Cellular and Sprint). I don't know what their logic is, but that's how it works.

Been that way since S7 Edge, since then unlocked are the last to get any type of OTA, All carriers has been always first.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discuss] kangi26:
Not update, you have to go to 4CRD7 first, then you can go to 4CRE1.

You can Odin to 4CRE1, all of the links are on post 2

[General Questions and Answers] ndandanov:
Dear Community,

I have been using a Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge for the past two years without any significant issues, apart from a defective screen which got replaced and is now pink-ish near the bottom, and a noisy camera when focusing. Generally I like the device quite a bit, despite it being not officially supported under Android 8 Oreo. The only relatively significant drawback for me is the lack of a microSD card slot - my version is the 32GB one and is almost always out of enough (3-5GB) free space (this, of course, is largely my fault :)).

I got a new Huawei Mate 10 lite as a present past week. The 64GB version with 4GB of RAM.

I am now in doubt whether I should upgrade to the newer (but cheaper and bigger) phone or stick with the SGS6 Edge I already like and feel as enough for my current and future (1-3 year) needs. Unfortunately I am afraid that I would have to choose only one of those devices, so any opinions, questions and advice are welcome. :)

This is the GSMarena comparison of the phones, and the photo quality comparison.

Thanks in advance!

Kind regards,

Nikolay

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rstern@bcaafc.com:
Hya folks,

I work at a small non-profit and we've got a Nexus 6P that was factory reset without removing the Google account, so it became FRP locked. Unfortunately the phone is not responding to the original Google account (or any others that have been on the phone). We've spoken with Google (who pointed to the manufacturer) and we've spoken to the manufacturer (who pointed to Google) and I'm just plain exhausted trying to sort this out with them. Right now we're looking at selling the phone for scrap, but I thought I'd check in here first just in case because I hate to throw away a perfectly good device. We are the legitimate owners and can provide the original proof of purchase, so there's no issue of legality. We just would like to be able to use this phone again.

If anyone has any suggestions I'm all ears. I'm comfortable working with Android development tools, albeit I am an amateur, but at this point I'm not sure the risk of bricking the device is really a concern since the next step is calling local stores to see if anyone wants the phone for parts.

Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions & Answers] dsteinschneider:
I lost root on my G4 after the first bootloop repair so I'm looking to confirm that I can root a VZW S8 if I purchase now (Feb 2018).

I can purchase the S7 for $480 or the S8 for $552 directly from VZW spread over 24 payments. I definitely won't be changing carrier (I do a lot of support while on my mobile and need the most reliable connection which is vzw). Is there a way to get the phones for less? I used to go to Amazon and save about $100 but it appears that is no longer offered.

Thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions & Answers] baune7:
no root for VZW S8.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions & Answers] Smithfolk4:
You can root as long as you have a bootloader version 2 or below which I think is the highest they have gone yet. You cannot unlock the bootloader and install TWRP, etc. Look in the S8 and S8 plus ROM forums. Partcyborg has a rooted ROM. Also in the S8 plus Verizon forum there is a rooted ROM by JRKruse.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions & Answers] dsteinschneider:
Hi Smithfolk, thank you for the great reply. Will check out the S8 ROM forum.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions & Answers] TheMadScientist:
Yes you can root the process is a little weird there is no twrp..due to locked bl and the battery only charges to 80% a eng kernel thing....But dont be discouraged the dev for root on snapdragon is a Verizon customer And the newest release is awesome you will get better batt life at 80% than stock to 100
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions & Answers] rossbeck:
Why would it be so much better with just a custom ROM? Are there custom kernels as well?

The 80% limitation is because root has to be used with engineering kernel? Just wanted to get it all straight in my head. My S8 arrives next week. :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions & Answers] TheMadScientist:
Yes. It's the eng Kern. Lol that's our custom kernel. The pc rom. Is the only one but with many tweaks to make batt better
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions & Answers] rossbeck:
Ok, so the only 2 kernels for Verizon S8 are the stock and the engineering stock. I was curious if anyone was able to actually tweak the kernel itself.

Seems like it'd be hard to tweak battery life very much without access to the kernel source. Oh, well! Looking forward to getting my S8... they were so cheap at Samsung last week I couldn't resist.
