Thanks.

I thought this only applied to the beta builds, being that they were uncertified, will look at the article again.

[Edit]

Read the article again by [MENTION=978821]abhijeet[/MENTION], and was related to 'beta'. There was also a 'hacked' apk for download, but not available now.

Signing out of the 'Samsung Account' seems to be a temporary fix, but once signed back in the issue returns.

This suggests to me that it's an 'authentication' issue Samsung server side and we'll have to wait for them to fix it.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] neodjoo:
Yes you r right we don't know if it will be fixed

Hope so

overheating

Is anyone else experiencing overheating after the update to the official FW? My phone heats fast in Antutu and even after a few minutes of Youtube, or other semi-intensive apps. It didn't happen before (on Oreo). Battery draining is huge while heating, obviously.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] sansnil:
I had an issue caused because I had disabled a number of system programs I don't use. After I re-enabled them it was silky fast and the battery life is like a new device. Hope you find the cause for your situation.

Dear friends,

I have a question, i flashed all betas using SD card then the official release ZSB2 TO DSB2 and i am now on the last build, is there any difference in the firmware between those who installed the last build directly (4.2 Gb) and others that updating from beta 1 to official update release as i have done?

In other words, if i flash the latest OXM FW (4.2 Gb), will the soft be smoother faster and stable? i asked because i think that a proper full odin install could maybe be better.

Thank you

How to revert back to stock Oreo?

I apologize if this has already been asked, but just need to know what version firmware I need to flash in order to go back to stock Oreo. Currently I am using the SM-N950U (T-Mobile variant) of the Note 8, and had flashed the SM-N950U1 firmware in order to check out Pie. I first flashed firmware CRL2 (which is Oreo for the SM-N950U1) then flashed the Android Pie firmware (ending in ZSAB) for the SM-N950U1. I tried to go back to Oreo but Odin keeps failing whenever I flash the stock firmware. I tried flashing both CSC and HOME_CSC files, did a factory reset/data wipe and cache wipe, but still can't get it to flash in Odin successfully. The firmware I have tried are: CRIA and CRK1.

Please someone point me in the right direction, many thanks.

If some of us report that to Samsung then thay can roll out the fix, as it is new software update so it is meant to have bugs .

You'll have to be on N950FXXU5CSA3: i.e. India (INS)

1. Type *#1234# in your dialer

2. If you see the same info as below, you are good to go:

AP N950FXXU5CSA3

If you DON'T see above info: FLASH INDIAN-version first to your device, with Odin 3.13.1 (AP BL CP & HOME_CSC)!

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] BluePhnx:
What is your original csc?

Since Indonesia firmware is its own and not in multi-CSC oxm (on sammobile Indonesia XID csc firmware is n950FOLE....) is that the one you flashed?

You'll need to know your original firmware csc!

Download the firmware for your csc.

You need to use the csc file instead of home-CSC. This will format phone!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] ali9971:
Are you sure that home_userdata is remove all data ? I saw another article says if you want to keep files, flash home but never flashed for me

My csc is oxm
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] BluePhnx:
Didn't say that!

I said that:

Csc will delete data

Home-CSC will keep data

But in your case since your getting only 16 GB instead of 64, you'll need the csc file.

Well you can try the home-CSC with the right firmware and see but if it doesn't work you'll have to use the csc file, but at this point who knows if the data is still intact.

Hello, hopefully somebody can help me as I'm getting confused

I have a SM-N950F that I'm running on Three UK network

It's branded with Vodaphone firmware and I'd like to remove this branding.

If I was to flash stock ROM BTU would everything still work ok or do I need to change CSC first?

I've successfully flashed stock and custom roms to Samsung tablets before but I'm getting lost by the talk of Knox, Samsung pay and CSC

It will all work fine. You may get XEU rather than BTU though, no difference to worry about though.

Unless you plan to root (flash custom filmware) your phone, you can ignore the talk of Knox/Spay etc, you just lose access to them after rooting.

Hi, I have a N950F Single Sim from italy TIM, and i wonder why they stopped to send OTA updates since October, my Security is still october, does anyone know why i dont get the DSL3?

Actually i found that they have a DSL3 Developer editin with a tool called CheckFirm from PlayStore, now how can i PULL this developer edition? I dont speak italian, otherwise I would call the provider but they most lilkely cannot help me in english...

Thanks for any tips and tricks, I dont want to make big changes, i dont want to unlock, no bootloader change and so on.... I am aware that twrp will brick knox...

Software update

Your software is up to date.

Software update information

• Current version: N950FXXU7DSJ1/N950F TIMZ DSJ 2/N950FXXU7DSJ1

• Security patch level: October 1, 2019
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] BluePhnx:
I think your provider isn't updating the firmwares.

You should be able to convert to the Multi-CSC OXM:

CSC ITV

Download ODIN and the ITV firmware with samfirm.exe on PC and update manually.

WARNING you will need to format/factory reset phone to go from TIM to ITV. BACKUP FIRST.

This won't trip knox!

Make sure you want to do it first because you CAN NOT go back to TIM firmware unless the provider updates their firmwares to the newer bootloaders.

Newer ITV firmwares are N950FOXM8DSL3 - Jan 2020 patch (the 8 is important, is the bootloader version)

Older TIM firmware is N950FTIMU7DSJ2 (the 7 is the bootloader version)

You can go up or same number in bootloader versions (eg 8,9,10,...) BUT you can NOT go down in versions.

Either wait and contact provider to see when they update the firmware or do it manually.

Now if you want to try you can find the ITV firmwares that has the "7" before the "DSJ2". So you can go back to TIM. Need factory reset between firmwares.

Eg N950FOXM 7 DSJ1 to N950FTIM 7 DSJ2 you can go back and forth. Once the 7 changes to 8 you can't.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] ant0nwax:
[MENTION=6081113]BluePhnx[/MENTION]

thank you sir for your kind answer.

i will try to contact TIM in english in writing and translate with a friend who is a human.

actually i am not italian so the ITV is maybe not best choice for a manual CSC change

I would like to choose a CSC where I will have long support on updates, and early and frequent push updates. my language choice would be english, modem is european cause i am in central europe.

could you imagine the best CSC for this?

best regards ant0n
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] BluePhnx:
Then you can choose BTU - UK or XEU - UK/Ireland!

They get OTA updates usually on the tail end of the month. You check out this thread for new OXM updates, any CSC that is listed in the first post is part of the Multi-CSC OXM. You can check the CSC's with www.sammobile.com firmware section to see if it supports your area but they all should support your area.

https://xdaforums.com/galaxy-note-8/how-to/official-stock-firmware-update-odin-t3677072

Also you can choose any Multi-OXM CSC firmwares. Any firmwares that has OXM in its csc name. They all have English language built in.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] ant0nwax:
I talked to TIM (they have really bad support, THEY have no idea when they will update) and TIM recommended Samsung Customer Care.

Samsung told me that the law of each country is implemented in the software, so since I am in Hungary I would need the Hungarian National Version of the Firmware.

Is that in your multi-oxm csc?

Could you please provide steps how to download the firmware with samfirm.exe from the Internet? Or where to get it? Huawei firmware finder was so easy cause it opened a proxy to get the firmware from their servers. I just don't know where to find the latest Hungarian Firmware. Thanks buddy.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] BluePhnx:
Download samfirm.exe on pc (google samfirm.exe)

Download latest Odin on pc

Run samfirm.exe on pc and use SM-N950F for model and XEH for Region (Hungary OXM CSC). (First 2 fields in top left).

Here is a YouTube link on how to use it:

[youtube]wd0ug5a1hQ0[/youtube]

This will download the latest XEH firmware so make sure you do not want to go back to TIM before using Odin to update phone!

Unzip the file and you'll have 5 files:

AP file

BL file

CP file

CSC file

HOME-CSC file.

Run odin and place the 4 files in its fields:

AP = AP FILE

BL = BL FILE

CP = CP FILE

CSC = CSC FILE

OR

HOME-CSC (DON'T USE BOTH FILES)

×note CSC FILE will delete storage and data

HOME-CSC will keep data and storage

In your case use CSC FILE (BACKUP first before

doing this!)

Search YouTube on how to use Samsung Odin!
