Come on guys, give'em a break. It's a 300+ page thread, info is not that quick to find. I even read we could expect a new update from beta4 to release anytime now. But it does take a while to read through it, even using search.

Nevermind! Got it. I was on Beta 3 (worked fine, so I wasn't in a rush to update to 4), got a Bixby update yesterday and nothing happened, so I moved on to Beta 4 hoping for it to work, but it was still without the option. But this morning I woke up to yet another Bixby update and it now works.

I thought I had the proper Bixby version, that just didn't show up when on Beta 3, but I guess it's actually a Bixby release that won't even show up unless you're on ZSAI+

Hey Guys. If KG-State/RMM-State is missing in Download-Mode, means that it's prenormal or checked?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Ivan Fuentes Hagar:
Not everyone has that time, unfortunately. I'm not complaining though... in between 5 minute breaks, I searched and although it did take me a while, found some answers. And I must admit, out of the 300+ pages, I guess about 100 are about the same gdarn questions lol. But the same way I don't complain about not having much time, I don't complain about people repeating the same questions either. It's not like upgrading to Pie was such an urgency... except maybe when I noticed it'd help me remap Bixby with no funny tricks :D

Hello.

I think im on beta 1 and looks like offical pie is out. I checked software update but can't found anything. Someone says you have to install oreo 8 rom to download offical pie update. Is that really necessary? Is there any other way to install offical pie without breaking warranty? Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Hedrush:
You don't break warranty installing official firmware. You'll need to just flash the official pie build via Odin.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] ppkenkun:
Offical Pie you mean? Not oreo?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Idebutterpiep:
Official Pie.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Hedrush:
Yeah I edited my post. You can either flash official Oreo for your country and wait it out for official pie OTA to release in your country or just flash the official pie build that's on page 1.

The old location menu had options for more or less battery consuming location methods. I used the one without GPS by default. Now I guess location on=GPS on. This might be what drains battery.

Anyone else had a look at the location options in pie yet?

[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] adsjc:
Since Pie removes the ability to use third party call recording, I was toying with the idea of flashing with a CSC that has native recording.

If I use odin to flash to ILO region firmware, will there be any repercussions?

I use Google Pay quite a lot will that continue to work?

Since my normal firmware is Australia (Optus) (OPS) will this even give me native call recording.

I have update to Pie and did a wipe.

Now what I have found in my bluetooth connection with the car is I couldn't control spotify in the car. I have lost the option of apps control through bluetooth.

I see they removed a lot of setting and option and force you to use the phone their way. For example, they removed "battery saving" option from Location, you battery will drain like hell.

As of now, Good Lock is not rolling to all regions, there are region restriction in place (only USA, Canada, UK, Singapore, South Korea and maby Germany) so you guys can't use the Good Lock app normally, you will have to down Activity Manager from Google Play to access the module (open Activity Manager, go to All Activities tab, search for the name of the module, tap it, tap the first activity to launch it)

I'm seriously considering downgrading to oreo again but am not sure if I am the only one having these problems - but I can't seem to find any threads discussing this: ever since the pie update, my android auto has stopped working (It won't change day/night mode anymore), the "Ok Google" doesn't work anymore (it either doesn't react at all, only sends half the message I dictate, cancels whatever action I'm trying to do midway through... Also, I can't connect my Samsung TV to my S8 plus via SmartView anymore - it just cancels connecting every single time. All of these worked perfectly for me on oreo. Anyone else experiencing this?

Hey guys

Which custom android 9 rom you're using? I have s8 and I'm on official rom but it seems not stable and laggy sometimes I don't like it!
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] GhoulPriest:
If you are on exynos : everything lags on exynos. Snapdragon is better for android at least because it is designed for snapdragon . While exynos have a ported android, at some point. And even galaxy s10 lags on exynos . My mom's xiaomi mi a2 lite on snapdragon 625 runs smooth compared to my laging s8 . Snapdragon gets better optimization. Next time i will by only snapdragon phones . While buying this one i thought that exynos is faster so the better . :silly:

upgrade to stock 9.0 from 8.0

Hey guys, im missing something. Im trying to put pie on my phone but its not working.

Samsung S8 (boost)

currently running 8.0

software version: G950USQS5CSB1
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] chaki-:
Your opinion m8. That's my first exynos and i have used only sd phones till now. Making a claim like that and to say even that s10 even lags:D

In my humble opinion, exynos is good. Battery is definitive better than sd.

İ can see myself buying exynos phone again.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] GhoulPriest:
About s10 on exynos is a fact really. For S9 on exynos is all the same story, also fact .
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] chaki-:
Fact you say? Since the unveiling i am watching almost every unboxing and review in YouTube. Didn't see not one who says that.

But then again it can be with some models out there.

İ had nothing near as lag on my Galaxy. So it's hard to believe, let condemn all exynos phones.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] speedbirdengineer:
Exymos being from Samsung has more likely possibilities of more driver updates than SD cos as per many forums online, snapdragon doesn't care for updates once phone is old and surpasses the 18 or 24 month Google upgrade policy. But i may be wrong.

P.S. my Exynos S8 dual sim has been running like a rocket on each and every OS including the beta software. And even when using 2 sims overseas gives excellent battery n performance.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Gabriel Martins:
Anyone else with this problem in the final version of the Pie?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] :
Yeah, the fun fact is that most people wont even notice any different between this two soc's.

The differences are tiny.

Maybe in benchmark they will be differences but i personally dont care about benchmarks cause they are far away from reallity.

The daily usage and stability is more important in this case
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] GhoulPriest:
Yes they don't say it on unboxing because most of them was paid by samsung by now . And new phones don't lag almost . But when it comes to daily usage , not heavy usage, they start to show off . But what about youtubers , there are hardly any big youtubers with samsung, especially on exynos variant ))) i don't say exynos is not fast but when it comes to animations there are frame drops might happen . Exynos do its job but forget about smooth animations .
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] chaki-:
Can you send me some external links to look it up?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] drakester09:
Have you actually used an s10 to back up your claims that is slowing down?

Some reviews published had the exynos s10 and no one mentioned slowness, I'm sure not everyone can be in Samsung's payroll.

I had the S8+ in Exynos and now in Snapdragon and performance seems the same. S9 had performance issues but that seems mostly fixed with the S10.

question about installing on my s8

hello guys

I know this could be stupid question but I would really appreciate a help here.

I have my s8 currently running with RenovateIce. I would like to update to a clean one UI.

As you can see from the screen below I have different build as the one CRL that are on the topic.

https://imgur.com/a/xWFIoVe

May I please ask you how should I update with the firmware/build that I'm currently using?

I'm worried that downloading the wrong one will brick everything.

Do I need to flash it with odin in this case?

Thank you for the answers, really appreciate the help
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] GhoulPriest:
You can flash from any build as long as you flash through odin a complete firmware .
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] danii92:
from where I can see if I'm on CRL3?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] GhoulPriest:
Don't try to update through betas . Go to sammobile, download there official firmware and flash it through odin. Doesn't matter what your current version is, since it is complete 3.7 gb firmware .

[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] danii92:
So please just to make this clear I dont have to be on CRL3 in order to install for example this one https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/galaxy-s8/SM-G950F/BGL/download/G950FXXU4DSBA/259039/

Right?

thank you
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] GhoulPriest:
Yeah , you are right . It is recommended to make a factory reset if you flash to newer android . Or you can use HOME_ CSC to keep all your data on a phone. Before factory reset back up your phone with smart switch .
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] nihilist_bloke:
Hello people, I saw a post earlier about s8 shutting down suddenly when the battery is at about 20%. The same is happening with me .

The battery life is actually better after the one ui update but it just takes seconds after reaching 20%.

Have any of you found a reason for this?

After one ui, I get an average of 30-40 hours on one charge with 5ish hours of sot.

But if it didn't happen on oreo for you guys then wait for new update and see how it goes ,there may have been some software glitches causing it.

there are some info about it on the web .

And i should mention that i charged the phone more time than it takes to get 100% .So when the green led turns on charge it 30 mins more just in case, i heard it helps . Than , use your phone as usual, and if the same issue occurs try this method right after. If after the third time the issue is not resolved , you can ask . I have another method but i don't really know whether it works or not .
