Ok, charge your phone to 100% than unplug it. Go to phone dialer and input *#0228# than QUICK START button on the bottom will appear , tap on it ,the warning massage will pop up , so , don't worry ,nothing bad will happen ,press ok. Then the screen will turn off wait ten seconds and turn it on , or it may turn on by itself , i don't remember . Then, after this operation your charge may became lower, it is ok , if not also ok . Than restart your phone, after it turned on plug the charger . Charge it completely , than again unplug and plug and charge for some time . Than repeat 2 or more cycles of discharging, by usual usage, and recharging in off state, until the problem is resolved .

P.s. i don't think that all the steps are important BUT many people who had that issue resolved it by this method . I don't really remember , i tried this method , but i am not sure if it resolved the problem or the method i comment before . Try it . I thought my battery was hopeless( my phone would turn off in couple of minutes on 20-25% of battery , but after two weeks it was like the problem was resolved by itself .

Dont wait for an update.zip from beta 4... just flash official pie through odin
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] respond2ajju:
Sorry brother. There's no such update.zip file for beta4 to final in the first page. I have seen so many people report issues regarding bootloop when they do the Odin flash. I have Odin flash before but seeing all these reports I am reluctant to do it. That's why preferring update.zip.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Scorpionea:
My apologies, I got confused between two threads . There is update.zip.but in another thread with official dsba tag but for that u have to be on Oreo first.

U really don't have a choice atm ,stay on beta forever or install official files with Odin. About bootloot if u get it just hold combo button to enter recovery and make factory reset .

Or try downgrade back to Oreo and then flash pie officially via Odin or by ota .

Hello everyone, I have two questions.

I updated my Galaxy S8 SM-G955FD (Brazil) to Android Pie out of curiosity but a lot of things are actually worse for me (namely notifications, game performance and battery).

1. Can I disable Heads Up Notifications via ADB like in Android Oreo? (I'm trying to use the command but it has no effect whatsoever)

2. Can I return back to Oreo safely? I don't have root and my bootloader is locked.

Thanks in advance.

Last time I had made such major update on my S5 things got much worse in terms of performance, with no interesting improvements so i would like to check with you guys first.

also, will I have to hard reset?

1. Downloaded September Patch firmware from Sammobile.

2. Used Odin to flash it.

After flashing it my device was updated successfully to September Patch but device status became "Custom".

After flashing, my device automagically received 'December' update then 'January' update then finally the 'Pie' update. After this device status automagically became "Official"

If anyone is facing this issue, I hope this helps.

If you mean the S8 dual sim (950FD), then yes you can flash a G950F firmware.

Okay. So i can flash G950F firmware on 950FD. Will my dual sim work? And what about csc (as my csc is inu)?

Hi

I have stock Dsba

First I use your zip from dsba to dsc2 then this one.

But how do I use the zip? I mean Odin or recovery?

I am non rooted stock user. Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] VIP1961:
These update.zip are for stock recovery.

Brief Instruction :

- Put update.zip on your SD card (it's needed here) - Reboot the phone to recovery mode - switch the phone off, press Vol+ + Bixby + Power, release power when you see the splash screen but keep holding the rest. Blue screen will appear, when you see an Android on it's side and a warning sign hold Vol- button for a few seconds, you will see recovery screen with a few options.

- Using volume buttons select "Apply update from SD Card" and press Power to select option

- Select update.zip you placed on the card and press Power

- Wait until the phone completes the update. It will reboot automatically.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] bL0oD1anGeL:
Also can be done using Odin. I'm saying this cause I tried updating using this method but was not able to (error 21).

[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] gReinholds:
missing update

Hiya,

I really hope this topic will work for the issue I've faced.

I bought my s8 in Gibraltar and my Samsung acc is from Latvia. I waited all march to get the Pie update, but never happened. As I contacted support via Samsung Members app I was told by Latvian support that device's IMEI belongs to Italy (Brand TIM) and I should look for help there. Talked to them, they confirmed Pie is available for TIM and suggested to use Smart Switch via PC - no success. 2nd attempt they told me to contact Latvian support and ask to change account's country to Italy (to connect to servers properly), but apparently, this is not possible.

I also find confusing that when googling PDA and CSC I find some results about German S8, but apart from what Samsung told me I see no signs about Italy.

So I'm looking for a potential cause why I'm not getting the Pie update and what should I do. I was thinking about trying to update it myself, but not sure about the versions to start with, etc. as I read you can't update to Pie from any version + I read somewhere that I have to download Pie update exactly for my CSC etc.

I've added 2 screenshots from phoneINFO below.

It would be amazing if someone could assist with advice here.

Thanks,

Reinholds
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] bL0oD1anGeL:
I found a firmware on sammobile with your "PDA" and "CSC" number and "Firmware CSC Code".

My S8 also did not update automatically.

I flashed to next month's firmware using Odin and after that my phone updated automatically to pie after that.

Hi, can anyone please let me know where I can download update.zip for 950FD (dual-sim)?

I want the update.zip for Android Pie, to flash it through TWRP.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] gReinholds:
Thank you very much for your reply.

So i should download the next version (one above), update my phone and try to update it from settings further, right?

Also, when I click on the version from your screenshot or the one above, it shows Ireland/UK, is this fine? Or should I look for Italy (as per the IMEI)?

My apologies for silly questions.

Thanks,

Reinholds
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] bL0oD1anGeL:
Yes, I checked Italy(TIM) but the versions don't match so I can't recommend flashing that.

In your screenshots your Firmware CSC Code is "XEU", which points to UK/Ireland.

You mentioned that the phone was bought in Gibraltar, Wikipedia says that it is a "British Overseas Territory". Maybe that's why all the versions match up.

I'm not an expert in any of this. So please do your research before attempting this. I don't want anyone to "blow up" their phone because of me.

---------- Post added at 07:41 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:39 PM ----------

I flashed the next version and after that OTA updates came on their own.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] gReinholds:
I have flashed the next version now, successfully, however still not receiving OTA updates.

Maybe one can suggest if those should become available immediately or some time has to pass, to get them through?

Also, now when I am one version higher (screenshots below), can I download from Sammobile and flash the newest one immediately or I have to go through all 4 above mine? I know in the first post in this thread, it is said that you have to do the updates one by one, but not sure if this refers only to BETA version (as this was BETA thread before) or to any updates performed.

Thanks,

Reinholds
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] bL0oD1anGeL:
Congrats man.

OTA was available a couple minutes after rebooting.

If it's not coming then I think you should it one by one, even though it takes ages to download.
