Hey all - looking at doing OTA for Sept, but 2 questions... for sept there's a Canada / Fi build OPR1, and a another OPR3, but the version from August is OPR6.... I contacted Fi cust svc and I wasn't so convinced that the person on the other end of the line really knew what I was talking about. https://developers.google.com/android/ota

Assuming you contacted fi because that's who you have as a carrier then this is what you install, or if you live in Canada:
8.0.0 (OPR1.170623.026, Sep 2017, Fi/Canada)
If you have TMobile , sprint, etc. Then you'll use this:
8.0.0 (OPR3.170623.007, Sep 2017)
I see what you mean about the OPR going backwards from 3 to 1. But it still says Sept. And for what carrier usage.

Hello everyone
I have a Note 10+ (SM-N975F) without root
CSC TPA/TPA/TPA
Last month I got the September security patch update without any problem.
The new update with the October patch has been published since October 17th, but my Note can't find any update.
Any idea why this might be happening ?
Thank you for your help.
Regards.

No, is unbranded version.
It's never happened to me before.
Hi! Is anyone else seeing this?
VoLTE had finally been fixed and was working fine in Android 9.
But it stopped working (different symptoms) when I upgraded to Android 10 via the 6-MAY-20 System Update.
More info...4G LTE data works fine.
Settings -> Connections -> Mobile Networks -> "VoLTE calls" feature is visible, and I enabled it (says "Use LTE data networks for calls whenever possible").
But whenever I dial, it switches from LTE to 1xRTT.
Phone is an unlocked Verizon S9 on Tracfone's Bring Your Own Phone plan using Verizon's network. Stock ROMs, not rooted.
Doesn't matter if WiFi is on or off.
Under "SIM card status", "Mobile data network type" is LTE. But "Mobile voice network type" is "1xRTT" and I don't know why.
Appreciate any help!
P.S. I wonder if this new problem might also only occur with MVNOS as apparently was the case in the "For those who use Verizon MVNO's VoLTE Now works after Update!" thread in this forum?
I did not find a solution for Android 10. Since I received no replies, I’m guessing that this may not be a widespread problem. E.g. perhaps it only affects MVNOs such as Tracfone.
Fortunately, the locked bootloader did allow me to use Odin to downgrade from the May 6, 2020 Android 10 (G960USQS7DTE1) version to the Nov 26, 2019 final Android 9 version (G960USQS7CSK5). I wish I could go back to an even older version because I used to only have half the idle battery drain last year. But the locked bootloader does not seem to permit it.
After downgrading back to Android 9, “SIM card status -> Mobile voice network type” is now LTE instead of 1xRTT, and VoLTE works again. Hopefully there will be a solution and I will be able to upgrade again some time. Please let me know if you have any info on this problem.

I see that G960USQU3BRJ5 is Android 8.0.0 with build date Mon, 15 Oct 2018 09:34:58. The problems I am aware of have been with Android 9 and 10. So hopefully VoLTE will work fine on your phone as it is. (As an aside,
your battery life may be better than the recent builds of Android 9 and 10 too.)
The details of enabling VoLTE seems to vary by carrier, but should not be hard to find with an Internet search. Good luck!

UPDATE AS OF FEBRUARY 22, 2021:
There are serious communication problems between Sprint/T-Mobile and Samsung Technicians regarding software build and Baseband versions or just a complete lack of knowledge. As a consumer, I have received many conflicting responses from the Technicians on both sides that's incorrect! Sam Mobile cleared up my questions regarding the software and Baseband versions released by Sprint.
I took my phone to Samsung's preferred UBreakiFixIt store and after 5 hours, I was told that they couldn't flash my phone with the Samsung, T-mobile or Sprint software. I contacted Sprint and after 1 hour, the technician said that my phone has Sprints latest update and to look for future updates. However, Sam Mobile lists Sprints latest January 1, 2021 update as: G988......CUA4 posted on February 5, 2021.
At this point, Sprint customers with a Galaxy S20 Ultra running the G988....CTL1 security update from December 1, 2020 must wait for Sprint to release the January 1, 2021 security update!
Please respond if you've already received the January 1, 2021 security update from Sprint for your Galaxy S20 Ultra and disregard my post below. Thanks!
In January 2021, I received the December 1, 2020 security update from Sprint/T-mobile. I noticed the different software update version numbers listed in the What's New section after installing the update, but didn't think much about it until I couldn't download the January 1, 2021.
I checked the T-mobile website and learned that the Galaxy S20 Ultra had to have Baseband version (Located in the About Phone section under Software) G988U........CTL1 in order to receive the next security update. Unfortunately, Sprint/T-Mobile installed Baseband version G988U.....CUA3 on my phone. I checked the link to Samsung to review the software updates that were installed on my phone and they have the latest updated version as: G988U....CUA4 which is not installed on my phone!
I contacted both Sprint/T-Mobile and Samsung and they decided to point fingers at each other because the CUA3/CUA4 software updates don't exist, they aren't valid according to their Techs. But Sprint/T-Mobile installed the security update OTA in January. See attachments.
I understand that I need to have my phone reflashed with the original One UI 3.0 OS 11 software in order to receive future software updates.
Just wanted to know whether anybody in Canada using S22 phone has got OneUI 5 update.
Looks like nobody in Canada have received an update. Is there another way to flash the new ROM?
No
I asked Samsung Hong Kong why the security updates stopped for my SM-S9010 TGY and the answer was "next month" ;-)
I got android 13 today morning.

Hi,
Could anyone help me to answer the question IF it is possible to flash stock ROM G990B on G990B2 model, and if so how? I need to get band selection working and with the Samsung toolkit and exploit it is not working as I would like it to be, so my thought was to try and flash it with G990B stock rom with security patch earlier than July 2022. Unfortunately G990B2 has earliest stock ROM I could find with security patch from September 2022, means after Samsung screwed up band selection...
One of my friends has converted his S21fe from G990U to G990U1, but both the firmware's binary versions were same. But for your case, you not only want to convert but also want to downgrade to an earlier firmware version. As mentioned on the Samsung OTA update page (See attachment), I am not sure that's possible anymore.
G990B2 I have on September 2022 ROM. I was thinking of going to G990B September 2022 version as well and than try to downgrade to say June 2022. I know on G990B I am able to go easily from Decemeber 2022 down to April 2022, as I did on few devices already. But this G990B2 version threw another stick under my feet...
