Holy crap you guys!! Pie for the s9 just dropped! Samsung experience 10.0 baby! I just wanted to make this thread for general discussion of Android Pie on the s9, the update features, and links to the firmware if available. There are some builds up on samsung.firmware.science for the s9 and s9+.

FOR ANYONE NOT SURE, THESE BUILDS LISTED ARE FOR THE G960U AND G9650U ONLY

unless stated otherwise

Official builds of pie (one ui) are being released among US carriers through OTA updates.

All builds can be found on firmware.science (just to keep the post from getting too cluttered)

If you see a build missing, just check firmware.science for it. I was probably just to lazy to put it here.

Here's a thread of what doesn't work in these builds. (Constantly updated):

https://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s9-plus/how-to/broken-features-current-android-pie-t3845763

TO INSTALL:

1. Download the update file to your sd card or PC

2. Make sure you are on the right oreo build before you flash to specified pie build (ex. ARG8 to flash CRI7)

(if you're not, then download the firmware from an external source and Odin Flash to it, then proceed)

3. Boot into recovery mode (power off your phone, then hold volume up + power + Bixby button until you see a blue screen with a bug droid on it)

4. Select "apply update via sd". Navigate to the file, and select it. If you don't have an sd, select "apply update via adb".

Here's an article on how to adb sideload

https://www.theandroidsoul.com/how-to-install-ota-updates-manually-using-recovery-and-adb-sideload/

5 .enjoy your fresh slice of pie (or not, I don't care).
