This 9.0 beta??? :)
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Cloud Strife 48:
Yes. For Note 8 Snapdragon only.

Server is still offline since yesterday
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] duh_steven:
If the server is back up will i be able to update this on the s8 or it's only exclusive for the Note 8?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] dj_iiml:
Server offline and can't understand if it is CRK1

Can someone upload a different mirror link?

Plus this is my current baseband and software version.

Can I update to DRL7 via adb sideload or Sd card update?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Cloud Strife 48:
Exclusive for Note 8 Snapdragon only.

---------- Post added at 07:19 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:44 AM ----------

No. This is only for Note 8 Snapdragon.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] SixArmedPriest:
Once the server is back up and running here is the link for the S8:

https://firmware.science/download?url=48927/1488/SS-G950USQS5CRL1-to-U5DRL7-UP
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Giebnatious:
So if I flash the beta from the link will I lose OTA without flashing back down to current Oreo? I got slightly confused reading through everything.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] dj_iiml:
[MENTION=6176106]Cronus[/MENTION] can answer that.

[MENTION=8310685]RSLPride[/MENTION] also can elaborate
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Steve One:
Let me ask this.

If I'm on the DRL5 and don't have a p.c. to get back to CRK1.

Can I just try and find a laptop or PC I can put Odin on and then flash the stock pie version once it is released? I'm on Verizon.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] FilipinoPride:
Yes you will lose OTAs. (Or we assume, since we haven't gotten any of the newer beta versions.) You'll have to flash CRK1 to continue receiving OTAs. It's unfortunate but inevitable. When you flash back make sure to download from Samsung's official firmware site otherwise you'll void warranty.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] duh_steven:
Thanks. Unfortunately, server is still down atm, but would it be best to flash back to CRK1 and download DRL7 (if available) or wait for the official beta.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] FilipinoPride:
Tbh considering the official, stable, issueless release is coming next month, I would say flash back to CRK1 and wait for the stable release. But if you want you can just wait for the official beta.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] SixArmedPriest:
I've asked the same. I'd say it would be best to flash back to CRK1 and wait for official build. I know that OTAs will be unavailable with these leaked builds because they are only using one partition of the system. OTAs require both partitions since Android 6.0. Since these leaked builds are not using both it is impossible to receive OTAs.

---------- Post added at 01:54 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:50 AM ----------

More than likely not due to the Key_Fingerprint that the Pie Stable will be looking for will be from CRK1 or CRL1, not DRL5 or DRL7. These builds are not using both partitions and therefore they are impossible to upgrade from. If you need more information in regards to this, research Android OTAs and it explains it pretty simply.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] FilipinoPride:
Question. This screenshot comes from the Official Samsung One UI Beta Program FAQ. Any idea if this would work on us closed beta users?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] dj_iiml:
IMO if you have updated via samsung members/ samsung plus this should definitely work.

Can't say about update via zip / flash.

Someone can try and clarify
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] saulc1981:

Method to roll back to oreo for OTA updates post one ui beta

Although won't work with people who have flashed/ updated via sideload I think
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] FilipinoPride:
firmware.science is back up! Since an entirely new server was made and loaded from a backup though, I'd say more than half the OTAs are missing. Max Weinbach says they'll be up soon on the SamCentral discord, so I guess we just wait for those to all be uploaded.

Yeah. I just checked reddit. According to a user Smart Switch will just tell you your device is up to date. Guess flashing is the only way :(
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] FilipinoPride:
Okay so slight problem. I just headed to samsung-updates.com to download the stock CRK1 files and found an issue. The mirrors it provides for downloading the file don't allow more than 2 gigs to be downloaded on free accounts, so there's no way to get the firmware without paying :laugh: I'm gonna see if I can find some other sites that host unmodified firmware and pray I don't lose warranty.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] edan1979:
you can just download at fw.updato.com

i always download my files there.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] duh_steven:
Okay, so I'm trying to download DRL7 on my device, which means I have to flash back to CRK1 with modded odin again. I've installed both update.zipfiles, but the CRK1 Odin Files are taking too long to download and was wondering if anyone wants to send me their files
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] FilipinoPride:
Sorry, I don't have either. I'll start downloading CRK1 tomorrow so you'll probably have it by then. Do you have Samsung Warranty? I've got Premium Care and can't lose that. After you've flashed back tell me if Knox was tripped or anything like that. I think after I flash back I'm definitely waiting for the official beta or release. Hope to never have to dip back into flashing because I know the pain of bricked devices. I was also wondering, (see screenshot below) Samsung Smart Switch PC has an option to restore, and then an emergency restore. Any chance that might work as an alternative to flashing? I'm unknowledgeable in Smart Switch and restoring with it.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] duh_steven:
Unfortunately, I don't have warranty on my device, and I'm afraid of getting my device brick as well. I might pull off on this one and wait until someone can officially confirm if it does trip Knox or not. Sorry to say bro, but I'm also unknowledgable with Smartswitch and flashing as I don't have much experience personally.

Update: finished downloading the files, but still contemplating if i want to flash it now or maybe another day.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] FilipinoPride:
Did you decide to flash now or do it another day?

I'm going to wait for the official Pie Beta to release, and if it doesn't give me the option to update to it directly from DRL5 then I'll flash back.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] duh_steven:
I just flashed mine to build DRL7 right now and I could reassure you it is safe to install. Had difficulties flashing it in the beginning when I used CSC, where I got stuck in a bootloop. It would bootup and then go through the "updating apps" cycle then reboot immediately. It was so frustrsting, that I had no choice to factory reset my device through recovery mode. Thankfully, I backed up everything on smart switch before I flashed Odin. Then, I installed the update.zips file and finally got it working.

Starting up the device I still noticed the lockscreen pull down lag, but I did get the scene optimizer toggle and January 2019 security patch.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] dj_iiml:
Scene optimizer is finally here!

Any more additions from note9 features?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] FilipinoPride:
Thanks for reassuring me dude! It makes me a lot less stressed about flashing this. That whole bootloop thing was a bit concerning though. I'll do a Smart Switch and app data backup tomorrow and begin downloading the files. Sucks the lockscreen lag is still there, one of the most noticeable bugs in my opinion. Since you had to factory reset did you not end up getting to see if there was data loss? A user said using Home_CSC or whatever eliminates data loss. So the entire flashing back procedure was just as the video explains? I don't think I'll be going back into the closed beta again. I read there's some kind of flash counter that I'm not willing to put above 1. And just to get everything straight, you didn't trip Knox right?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] duh_steven:
Aside from the scene optimizer "toggle" in the camera setting (doesn't fully function in app) I haven't noticed any other new features. We did get intelligent scan from DRL6, but again also there for display. Really, the updated build didn't add much stated from Max Weinbach post.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] duh_steven:
No problem dude! Please do make a backup because I'm uncertain myself if data was wiped as I couldn't get pass the startup screen. To answer the explanation of the video, I did exactly what he said and used CSC and not HOME_CSC, however, I got stuck instead of data loss. Maybe flashing back is different, but i'm not knowledgable with using odin. I'm not sure if there are other ways to check if Knox was tripped, but booting to download mode the Warranty Void: 0X0 or 1X1 something like that wasn't visible at all.

I recommend you sticking with DRL6, if you're afraid it might trip knox and besides there isn't any major change with this particular build.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Cloud Strife 48:

I'm on sm-n950u1 CRK1 can I flash the DRL7 Update zip via sd card?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] SixArmedPriest:
Yes. Just make sure that you get the S8 DRL7 zip. You should be g2g!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] FilipinoPride:
It's good to know there isn't much change right now, but I'll still need to flash back just so I can get the official update eventually. If you ever want to check just search Knox status on the play store and download "Knox Status Samsung" by Bryan C. It just shows you what the state of Knox is.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] duh_steven:
Yes, it is a stock font!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] duh_steven:
Good news. It does not trip Knox, so it's safe for you to flash back.

I hope someone can advise me below -

Note8 OneUI - Installation Question about ODIN

I have never used ODIN.

https://www.xda-developers.com/samsung-galaxy-note-8-install-one-ui-android-pie-beta/

I downloaded the CRK1 > DRL7 update and I have it named "update.zip" on my SD card.

Do I have to use Odin through my PC still?

Can I apply the update to my Snapdragon Verizon Note8 by just restarting the phone into update mode, and "apply update from .zip on SD card" option like I do for monthly updates to get them earlier than Verizon releases them?

Thanks for clarification.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] z0ove:
Nop is not necessary. If you're in CRK1 just put updade.zip file in youre SD Card. Reboot into recovery mode and flash that zip file.

Does the DRL7 update fix AR Emoji? Also I have intelligence scan working on DRL5 without update to DRL7.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] z0ove:
No ARe in DRL7, sorry
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] FilipinoPride:
As [MENTION=4827164]z0ove[/MENTION] said, you must be on the correct firmware to update. Odin is used to get to the required firmware in order to update. So, if your firmware version is already N950USQS5CRK1 then you can just install the update. But if that isn't your current firmware version, you'll need to use Odin to flash CRK1.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] vonDubenshire:
I got it to work just great. Perfect update.

I can't get Intelligent Scan to work but a lot of users around are saying it does work on their S8 and Note8

I don't have the option to turn it on. Only "preferred" biometric.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] FilipinoPride:
Does super slow mo work? I realized it isn't an option right when I updated, but I don't have another device to compare the beta slow motion to. My brother has a few Note 9s so I'll have to check it out tomorrow.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] duh_steven:
Surprisingly, it's not included in this build. I heard Snapdragon user didn't get this feature when it was supposedly released on the September Security Patch 2018 update.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] SixArmedPriest:
That is correct. I received AR Emoji but never received super slow motion on my S8+ Snapdragon.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] FilipinoPride:
I got it. It's unfortunate I've lost it :( Hopefully it'll return in the official build.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] FilipinoPride:

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Giebnatious:
Anyone in the US get the official beta? I keep checking Samsung + but haven't seen anything yet. I really want Pie but don't think it's worth side loading the beta when you have to downgrade to get official updates.. I really wish Samsung was better about including their so called "premium" handsets with more updates and features for longer.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] FilipinoPride:
Make sure Samsung+ is fully up to date. Keep in mind not everyone has gotten it yet and some carriers (such as AT&T) don't support the beta. P.S it's just registration. The beta hasn't been given to the people who registered yet.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] duh_steven:
I got v.16.2.14.15 on my S8. The app icon and design stayed the same still.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Cloud Strife 48:

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Steve One:
Will you gentlemen please let me know how flashing back to crk1 goes.

I've got everything I believe I need to accomplish this but have never used Odin and am quite scared to mess something up.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] duh_steven:
Don't fret man, I was scared at first, but after watching Max Weinbach video I got a sense on how to flash back, but please be aware you might lose data, or perhaps get into a bootloop, so I advise you to back up your device through smart switch on your pc/mac.

Flashing back is similar how you first flashed your device by using modded odin and the odin files provided. Once it's done downloading, turn off your device and boot to download(odin) mode. Power + Volume + Bixby. Then, connect your phone to your pc. Extract the odin files and open Odin and then select the corresponding odin files for solely BL, AP, CP, and *use CSC. (my device got into a bootloop, and data got erase) I'm not sure about Home CSC though, even though he said not to use it. (If you get into a bootloop, then flash to recovery mode and reset your device.)

Click start and odin will flash the firmware to your device (takes 5-10 mins). Congrats you're now on CRK1.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Steve One:
Ok gonna try in the morning.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] duh_steven:
Does it merely show up when you're on CRK1? Im still on DRL7 at the moment and couldn't find it on either Samsung+ or Samsung members. In the meantime, I might stick to DRL7 for now because I don't have the time to flash back.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Steve One:
Alright back on crk1 got into a boot loop updating apps and had to do a factory reset.

Other than that no problems setting everything back up and waiting for official update. Thank you all for your help.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Giebnatious:
I updated Samsung+ yesterday and still nothing. Not sure if that means we aren't selected or it just isn't available to us yet.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Steve One:
Well hell I don't think Verizon is doing official beta testing.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] FilipinoPride:
I'm pretty sure T-Mobile is supporting the updates considering the CRK1 file is T-Mobile specific. Because Samsung+ and Samsung Members are optimized for our Android Version, I think it will only show on Android Oreo. I don't really know. I'll update you guys if more people start registering.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] FilipinoPride:
What's all this OEM unlocking about? I never turned on that option. What does it do? I have a guess, but it doesn't really matter to me because it voids warranty as soon it's turned on.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] SixArmedPriest:
Allows for Root. That's it. Unlucky we don't have that option on the Snapdragon Variant due to locked Bootloader :crying:

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] SixArmedPriest:
That's a big negative. Checking hourly lol
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Cloud Strife 48:
So basically its function is for root, custom ROM, and custom recovery purposes only? Thus, enabling OEM unlock option isn't necessary if you want to flash an official firmware from a different country?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] FilipinoPride:
I read up and yes. Just use Odin.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] PlutoDelic:
Man, it's weird to see these questions from a person with nearly 2k posts and three times the amount of my likes :P.

No worries about flashing with Odin, it's an internal samsung tool that leaks out quickly with every update. Warranty wont be touched as long as you flash the same stuff that Samsung itself flash, in this case, official roms. very rarely you may have issues if you change the region. say OXM to non OXM CSC's, but even that goes well after reverting.
