[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4] Chga2503:
It should work fine. I have a Canadian device as well (SM-F936W), and converted it to U1 the same way described by spotmark, which then allowed me to adb sideload the beta update. Be aware that the firmware conversion from W to U1 will require a full wipe, so don't forget to backup first.

Also, some cellular network bands used by Canadian carriers might not be enabled by default on U1, so if you're in Canada, there's a thread on the S22 Ultra forum with steps to enable missing bands.

It doesn't make any sense to release and start a bêta program one week ago if they planned to release stable and public Android 13 on the Z Fold 4 this week...

It would mean that we get only one bêta and then directly to stable... i'm confused about this strategy
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4] spotmark:
Who cares? Don't look a gift horse in the mouth.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4] fonix232:
Yeah, I wouldn't trust this.

This is a report of a report with no verified source. It's just some random Italian website claiming that Samsung will start the rollout today - but there's no source where and when Samsung stated this.

Don't get me wrong, I really hope we do get the final release today, my comment is generally about trusted sources, and this article not having one.

As for why release a beta - Samsung wanted to test things. You do that by getting a preview version out to people willing to risk their user data. Most likely Samsung didn't find any blockers, and went ahead with the release.

Could any of you who have installed the Beta please do the following?:

- go to https://github.com/termux/termux-app/releases

- install https://github.com/termux/termux-ap...ermux-app_v0.118.0+github-debug_arm64-v8a.apk

- in termux run:

apt-get update

apt-get install qemu-system-i386 qemu-system-x86-64

- then run the following two lines and post which accelerators they give you:

qemu-system-i386 -accel help

[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4] Antyhaker:
Just try latest beta :)

You have to install beta 1 first and then beta 2 - it's incremental update (just look at files size).

[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4] fonix232:
As I explained a few pages ago, no, if you upgraded to AVJx, you need to grab an ODIN image of AVIG, flash that with Odin, then force your phone into recovery mode (due to the "downgrade", your phone will refuse to boot properly, DO NOT FREAK OUT, just force turn it off then boot with both volume buttons pressed, you should get to the proper recovery), then flash Beta1 then Beta2.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4] fonix232:
Dude no offense but if you know jack**** about a topic, DO NOT give advice. You're talking BS here, and if it wasn't for Samsung's protection, you could've bricked their device.

`Total xfer` means how much data was transmitted. It will sit at `1.0x` (or close to it) if the update wasn't successful (since only the first half of it went through, but ADB for some reason detects it as a single 100% transfer), and it will say `2.0x` (or close to it) if the update succeeded.

Flashing random update ZIPs is NEVER GOOD ADVICE. So if you have no idea, just refrain from commenting, don't use other people's devices as guinea pigs for your lack of knowledge.

They quite literally can't - they're on the October update (AVJx) for F936B, whereas the Beta1 update only applies to the September update (AVIG). And the Beta2 update will only apply on the Beta1 update (ZVJ9).

Can we please, for von Neumann's sake, stop talking out of our asses if we don't understand the topic? It's no shame if you don't fully get how Samsung updates work, but at least DON'T GIVE BAD ADVICE based on partial information!

[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4] Peanuttree:
I tried to use this update with AVII on my phone but I keep getting this device has unexpected build date. ; the build date of this device is "Tue Sep 27 10:22:41 KST 2022" What gives is it because of a security update?
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4] Peanuttree:
I found the error. I was on U not U1...
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4] beniffland:
Hi, would you mind elaborating on how you got around the build date issue please? thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4] Jay5583:
You can't "get around" the build date issue. You have to flash the starting build first, which depends on the model device you have. i.e: F936U vs F936U1 vs F936B, etc. Like the post you responded to, @Peanuttree was able to identify that he was on a carrier based device model ending with U vs an unlocked device with model number ending with U1. Just because they are Fold 4's does NOT make them all the same. They all have different build versions. Search/Read the posts on here... Some nice people have provided detailed instructions that you can follow. Goodluck.

[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4] TML1504:
Hi experts!

Seems I ran into a problem, and I would be grate full if someone could guide me:

I wanted to try the 13 beta on my SM-F936B, bought on Amazon.de and used/activated in Austria.

Please forgive if I ask dumb questions, as you can see in my posting history I was an expert a few years ago, but I admit that I have no experience with today devices...

I was on the latest October Build (J3), and tried to install Beta1. Learned from here that I should downgrade with Odin to IG Build, as Beta1's update is targeted onto this specific build.

I tried that, and now I got stuck: ODIN (uses patched 3.13 and 3.14, same result) will not flash past ~80%, whatever I try. I can get back to Recovery and DL mode, but nothing else. ODIN will not let me flash the Samfw.com_SM-F936B_EUX_F936BXXU1AVIG_fac.zip I downloaded, see screenshot.

What can I do? How to get my device running again?

Thx very much in advance!

Markus
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4] TML1504:
I tried exactly that, but I fail because Odin will not let me flash/downgrade to AVIG over my AVJ3. Phone will not boot to OS anymore, stuck in Recovery/DL Mode. I will now try to DL an actual J3 build and flash it with Odin, maybe this will revive my device!

I think the issue could be different partition sizes, therefore Odin will not be able to flash AVIG over AVJ3. At least in my case...

Has anyone some advice for me?
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4] 白い熊:
Do

Do I need to go AVIG ⇒ Beta 1 ⇒ Beta 2, or can I go AVIG ⇒ Beta 2 directly?
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4] TML1504:
See my post above, I tried to downgrade via Odin from AVJ3 to AVIG, and alone this step bricked my device until now. I cannot flash any downloaded files so far, Odin stops at about 80%. Tried everything, AP only, AP+HOME_CSC, all files, non would work.

If your device is working flawless atm, I would suggest considering NOT to try the Beta if you are not on AVIG, so everyone who made the latest Oct update (AVJ3) should possibly stay there and wait for the official release!

I'm still trying to get my device back, without having to send it in...
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4] 白い熊:
I'm not asking about downgrading. :O) I first need to upgrade to AVIG.

Afterwards, as I see B2 is four times smaller than B1, do I need to hop B1 and then B2, or can I apply directly B2 is my question?
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4] Jay5583:
Just to confirm.. what device model do you have? I'm assuming you have F936B since that's the files you are referencing but it's better to make sure. ie: I have USA unlocked so my model number is F936U1. Please provide the following information :

Model #:

Installed firmware build version:

Country:
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4] Jay5583:
You cannot skip beta update process. You would need to be on the initial firmware for your device model so please provide the following information :

Model #:

Installed firmware build version:

Country:

Also try using the search... This thread isnt big and kind people have laid out the instructions so if you follow the instructions... Everybody wins.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4] Jay5583:
@cooldude20000 I noticed you updated the OP with Beta2 info for the F936B. Would you be willing to add the U1 links as well?
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4] Jay5583:
F936U1 VZW Beta 1: AVII -> ZVJ9

F936U1 VZW Beta 2: ZVJ9 -> ZVJF
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4] TML1504:
Asking such questions I believe you probably shouldn't try it. A Odin-Flash contains the whole firmware (in parts), whereas the Beta files are done via ADB, and are incremental, therefore Beta2 updates Beta1, Beta3 will probably update Beta2, etc.

If you are on a build higher than AVIG you will have to downgrade, IF this works. That was where I failed! Good luck though! :)

Thank you for your fast help. See post #161 (https://xdaforums.com/t/download-link-for-one-ui-5-beta-1-2-android-13.4507393/post-87636249) for my description, to confirm: I have a SM-F936B, unlocked, bought in Germany.

I managed to get my device back with Odin3.14 and the following file "Samfw.com_SM-F936B_EUX_F936BXXS1AVJ3_fac.zip". So this is the build I'm now on again!

I think what I guessed above is true: Odin could only flash the AP which was already existing on the device, the J3 one. The IG one will not be accepted, the flash will stop at the end of "super.img", and wont proceed.

If you are willing to guide me to another try I will follow your advice to the point.

I read the whole thread twice, and cannot figure out what I made wrong. I tried to downgrade, but Odin would not let me. Any idea why?

Has anyone in the same situation as me successfully downgraded?

For the record: I flashed dozens devices with ODIN, I started in the glory days when I switched from Windows Mobile on to Android about 15 years ago... On my HTC HD2 via Kernel boot from SD and stuff... ;) I made my own Odin images, and never had such problems...

What changed?

Best regards,

Markus

[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4] TML1504:
Thank you again!

I tried the following file: Samfw.com_SM-F936B_EUX_F936BXXU1AVIG_fac.zip

It was the EUX version, and AVIG. Odin wont let me proceed over "super.img". I downloaded all files from samfw.com so far, also the file with which I was able to repair my Fold4 again ("Samfw.com_SM-F936B_EUX_F936BXXS1AVJ3_fac.zip").

Do you think if I redownload the same EUX AVIG build from SamMobile would make a difference?

I strongly think that this will fail again, due to incorrect partition size. Also Odin 3.14 warns to "remove Google Account" before using Odin (see screenshot), whereas 3.13 did not issue this warning. This was possibly my problem. Maybe some FRP related stuff?

What do you think?
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4] fonix232:
Stop downloading from samfw, use SamLoader instead: https://github.com/samloader/samloader

It, unlike samfw, guarantees a download from Samsung's servers. If even that can't get you past 80%, try:

- A different cable (yes, the cable can cause such an issue, try to get and use a high quality C to C USB 3.2 Gen 1x2 or Gen 2x2 cable

- Use a different USB-C port on your computer

- Try with a USB-A to USB-C cable (speeds will be slower, but it might work)

- Use a different PC

Unfortunately, the ODIN screenshot you provided has no error messages, so I can't say for sure what's happening. I've never seen ODIN hang at any percentage without timing out after a while, so something's definitely iffy here.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4] 白い熊:
No worries - I'm well versed in flashing etc. I've just never flashed a beta update zip, always flash FW, so that's why I asked if I need to go incrementally...

BTW, does the Beta modify boot? I assume it does - I'm rooted - don't want to go without root, so if it'd unroot it, I'd have to wait for A13 FW and skip the Beta.

if my zfold4 on this firmware, what should I do to try beta2?
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4] fonix232:
You're on AVJ3 (ignore the baseband version, that's irrelevant). Your only option is to downgrade via ODIN.

WARNING! USE THIS GUIDE AT YOUR OWN PERIL.​

I take absolutely no responsibility if it bricks or kills your phone, burns your house down, kills your cat, starts a thermonuclear war, et cetera. This worked for me, but there's no guarantee it will work for you.

1. Grab an AVIG/AVIG/AVIG firmware (unfortunately, according to SamLoader, all OXM region has been updated to AVJ3/AVJ4, so you'll need an alternative source - I will be uploading the image I used to GDrive later today)

Link is available now: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1J6RN1-AqQOY46cTIaECaaYFsKAoWMYjT/view?usp=sharing

It was downloaded under region BOG, but OXM firmwares should be the same for all region. I had no issues with my EE UK and Three UK SIMs, nor was there any out-of-region apps added.

2. Grab Odin 3.14.4 patched

3. Add ALL files from the update to ODIN's appropriate fields (AP will take some time to load and the app will appear frozen, just sit tight and wait). For the CSC option, use the file HOME_CSC_xxx to retain your files, and CSC_xxx for a full factory reset.

4. Put your phone in ODIN Download mode (either via `adb reboot bootloader` or by turning it off and holding both Volume buttons while you plug it into your PC)

5. ODIN should recognise the phone and should show a gray-blue `COM X` (where X is a number) entry on one of the flash slots

6. Let it update

7. After the update finishes, you'll end up on an error screen in Recovery mode - but you won't have access to any of the tools. Do not wipe or do anything, just hold the Power button until your phone turns off.

8. Once your phone is off, turn it on by holding both volume buttons, then pressing Power until the phone vibrates/you see the Samsung logo. Then, release power but keep holding the Vol buttons, until you get into recovery.

9. Now you should have access to the `Install update from ADB` option, select that

10. Sideload Beta1 for F936B, wait for it to finish the update - this will pull your phone from the permanent boot-to-recovery state the downgrade caused

11. After the phone boots, wait for the update to install (it's in the notifications).

12. Reboot to recovery, then install Beta2.

13. Wait for the update to finish.

14. ???

15. Profit.
