ok, but why did you switch to DBT, and espacially how without a sim?

you should have stayed on XEu and just flash last XEU firmware.

but even then, without sim you might not have the beta enrolled.

I also tried it, had the right firmwareversion, XEU active, but DBT SIM. It did not work.

It only worked after I inserted the UK Sim alone.

Also, everytime I disable/remove the UK SIM, Memebers switches back to german.

I can still acess the beta start page, community and error-reporting. But Beta notices are just empty.

Also Beta (de)registration page just gives me an error.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Mr.Januzi:
I have a sim that does not belong to any CSC at the moment (supposed to be on SEE), I opened members (UK XEU at the time, and clicked the banner until the ENROLL page) but when i clicked it said that i need UK sim, then i put my sim ( while members app was open and in the enroll page) and then when i press enroll it said server error and a text at top left saying beta status : withdrawn.

I wanted to stay on DBT because in 3 weeks time, I can have an actual german sim. so didn't want to switch to XEU because DBT is the first to deliver updates but this time was UK :p

Boot wit ROOT for S9+ beta1.

Unpack zip and flash tar file via Odin. Put it to AP section in Odin.

I flashed it on a clean beta1 stock rom. No TWRP and no format data from TWRP.

After booting it asking for reset.

Agree with it and ALL DATA WILL BE FORMATED.

Reboot. Root.

Not sure, but did you check S9 forum or reddit? I think someone catch it but not sure. I will check later and may put links though.

About the other question, no. Last year I had to travel for holidays and i forgot my sim card, so I try with vpn only and it didn't work.

How I changed my CSC?

It was very simple actually, I think I write it somewhere. Just put the sim card then the phone will ask you to reboot and change the region. While rebooting I go to recovery and format the phone. Not sure is necessary but will need it anyway before upgrading to next OS (Imo).

Hello mates. Last night I tried to flash one ui 2.0 beta but failed unfortunately. I flashed successfully Indian latest firmware via Odin and then tried to flash the beta file via adb but failed. Clicking right button holding left shift in adb folder didn't show any command window option. It was showing powershell instead. So I opened command window from windows button and found adb devices. But when I pass rhe command adb sideload update.zip it shows not readable. What to do guys? I worked a lot for this and this failure is hurting me. Any reply is appreciated.

[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Guides, News, & Discussion] maik005:
you are right.

But...

Update to beta is impossible wit rootet device or with custom rom.

First the user needs to flash the unchanged original full samsung firmware with odin (with AP, BL, CP and CSC_OXM) all data will be lost!

Then Update is possible with original recovery via adb sideload or update from sdcard

My battery life is bad in general so I won't comment that. But I managed to get around 3h of sot which is normal for device older than a year, I think.

What I noticed so far, is that sometimes the gestures don't work. I'm not sure what caused it but feels like they don't work for 1-3 min then it's fixing by itself. I already reported to Samsung Members.

As I'm still on xxxxxxxxxxxxxCSJ3 with the NEE-ending, I have to upgrade to the indian version first and then install the beta? Hopefully someone maybe let the version from NL og Germany leak for us in the nordic to use? Or is the Indian version as safe? :)

yes, and you can also use UK Version.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Mr.Januzi:
They are released from Samsung so they must be "safe".

I am on CSJ3 on DBT Germany, and still waiting, but i think we will get an update of security patch in 2 days max, then the beta registrations after the patch. IMO.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Guides, News, & Discussion] fredriku86:
Hum, is that the other one in the first post? Anyhow I need to flash with the latest from UK, then. :) Maybe I'll sit in the boat for a little while longer for the last update to arrive. :p Thanks anyway!
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Guides, News, & Discussion] offermanager:
success :)

after thinking to do the update or not for a couple of days I just tried it today.

First step was to install the latest UK version (G965FOXM7CSJ5) of android Pie with ODIN and choose the HOME_CSC (HOME_CSC_OMC_OXM_G965FOXM7CSJ5_CL17174122_QB26917086_REV01_user_low_ship.tar.md5) to avoid the loss of my personal data.

After that I sideloaded the beta version with adb. (just rename the downloaded ****.bin to update.zip)

Everything went fine: I kept my data, netflix and my banking apps are working and the phone runs smooth.

I only hope that the battery drain and temperature will settle soon because the temperature was very high during the update !

For now I´m happy with it ! :D
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Guides, News, & Discussion] KeTuRr74:
Oh no, i had to go back Pie so i can see a little difference in battery. I'm waiting for Beta 2 wich was released for Note 9

Guide for flashing s9+ beta 1 one ui 2.0 with Twrp and Root fully working

1.Flash stock Xeu Csk1 with Odin and let it boot till welcome screen

2.Flash Update.zip via adb or sd card and let it boot and bypass all setup and go to developer settings and check if OEM unlock is on.

3.Enter download mode flash twrp.tar via odin and uncheck auto reboot.Then boot in recovery using the 3 buttons up,Bixby and power.if u boot to system u have to redo the flashing twrp.tar process and try to enter recovery

4.Make format data and press yes and then reboot recovery

5.Flash Alucard multi disable

6.Flash patched kernel below

7.Reboot

If after reboot asks for factory reset then reboot recovery format data press yes and reboot.

For S9+ only this

Enjoy

[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Mr.Januzi:
Damn, I already installed the patch. So I have to say goodbye to the beta.

The csc is still the same OXM7CSJ1, and the firmware CSK4 which is not a huge upgrade.

I personally think that there will be beta for Germany.

Fingers crossed.

And as far as I'm concerned, in note 9 the beta 2 in india is beta 1 in UK, so I'm hoping s9+ beta 2 in UK is beta 1 in Germany.

[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Mr.Januzi:
I'll be waiting, since I have DBT I'll get the update the same day as beta testers official release. That's why I switched to DBT, for the fastest update delivery.

Tbh, I'm not in the rush to get it, there is nothing special about it, apart from navigation gestures. As per animations, I always disable them for faster use.

Can not.

To install the Beta version, you must have the latest version of the G965FXXU7CSK1 / G965FOXM7CSJ5 / G965FXXU7CSJ5 / G965FXXU7CSK1 earlier on your phone.

[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Mr.Januzi:
Naaah it won't be compatible, they follow the previous firmware letters, beta has a Z on its letters so you will need ZSK5 for the second beta ZSK(7- or whichever number will be).
