What other official firmwares are compatible with the SM-G9600? - Samsung Galaxy S9 Questions & Answers

Hi all:
I have an S9 model SM-G9600 Snapdragon unlocked and I want to ask the following:
1. that other official firmware of other models are compatible with my device
2. is there any official Android 9 firmware that can be installed?

Official Firmware Update Available
Check if there's any update for the SM-G9600 variant. I just got the Pie firmware update via OTA for that same device.

Just received notification for One UI Android Pie update. Phone model is G9600 Snapdragon.

Woow downloading

Got OTA Android Pie for my SM-G9600 yesterday, like 21pm, finally xD

Software versiĆ³n?
G9600ZHU2ARD3 is the oreo version

always make sure you're in the OWO or OWE or the chinese csc, you don't want to soft brick your phone, I flashed the TPA csc about a week ago, now they're releasing 9 for the ARO csc

For Brazilian owners of Galaxy S9/S9+.
The Brazilian variants are SM-G9600 (S9) and SM-G9650 (S9+), same as the Chinese version, using Snapdragon 845 and 128GB of internal storage. The Brazilian firmware country code is ZTO, if you search the firmware using SamFirm it will point you to ZHU firmwares (it is considered a Hong Kong/China firmware but this is a generic firmware).
Current S9 (SM-G9600) / S9+ (SM-G9650) firmware for Brazil (ZTO):

You mean, flashing a G9600 ROM in your G960U device?
I'm not sure if that will work.

I saw the 9600 rom is a 128gb and dual sim version, but the 960F is 64gb and single sim as the 960U is.
Do you think the 960F ZTO will work in the 960U?
thanks

I don't have experience with flashing Roms from different variants in Samsung devices.
I recommend searching this information with users who are experienced at flashing with Samsung devices before doing any action.

S9 no brand, can't update to android pie

Hi guys! Proud possessor of a galaxy s9 dual sim no brand.
When I check for updates via OTA or smart switch there is no update available. But android pie is out!
What could be the reason for this fact? Any advice?

Bro the update is out in some regions only... I'm stuck on november security patch and still no december update for my region... You should wait
If you cannot wait, flash the Pie firmware manually
I'm tempted! Thanks for the replies guys!

I would give it to the end of the month and see if the official update rolls down. I think the beta has run its course and the final is dropping in some countries already. You may or may not get it quickly as Samsung seems to be all over the place on how it updates its phones.

About samsung galaxy active 2 update version

I just bought samsung active 2 but i noticed that version i have is old and samsung wear app tell me that i have last version software
Is that right or app have glitch?
Tizen 4.0.0.7
Software version R820xxu1bta1
Yes, this is the last version. It's have a 4.0.0.8, but only for few regions (I think). Now waiting the new one, the Tizen 5, it's starting to show in some regions, but for now just waiting...
Same problem. Bought it from Souq in Egypt, same software version. We should wait for the new Tizen OS update.
Hi all!
I have the 40mm LTE, (SM-R835F) with Tizen 4.0.0.7.
I want to change region to USA (from Sweden).
I have COMBINATION file for my watch, however i dont have Stock Firmware t get the AP, BL & CSC in NetOdin.
Can someone please help me with that part? Can i extract my own - then how?
Or should i use a Stock Rom with 4.0.0.8 - where do i find it?
Please help, im so close to changing the region - just need that last part.
I have only last fw for OXA region, but it based on Tizen 4.0.0.7. There's no yet newer fw for our model.

Can I get OTA updates if I change the CSC?

I'm currently on an SFR CSC (France SFR) and I want to swap to XEF. Will I be able to get OTA updates right away? OneUI 3.0 for example, it's not yet available for my carrier but it is on unlocked devices.
Thanks.

Hi, I'm also interested in performing this operation, but come on tell me if this invalidates the warranty?
My current firmware is: G988BXXS5BTJ4
I would like to flash this: G988BXXU5CTKG
you can switch csc without problems with samkey. In case of warranty you can switch back. I've done the same for DBT
what do you mean by samkey?
Samkey is the tool to use for changing the CSC.
I did it Friday for the first time on my German (DTM) S20 Ultra and switched CSC to Nordic (NEE).
However, I'm not getting the One UI 3/Android 11 update OTA.
I'm suspecting it is because, OTA only updates the most recent version for that CSC, and the DTM-CSC was 2-3 updates behind.
So Odin is probably necessary in that case to get the latest update.

No update for SM-G960 - XAA ; is it safe to flash SM-960U1 - XAA

I recently bought SM-G960UZKAXAA, a SM-G960U with XAA csc. It came with a firmware version G960USQS8ETH5 / G960UOYN8ETH5 / G960USQS8ETH5 - Safety patch Sept1 2020 - When I check (Feb 22, 2021) if there is a software update, it says that I have the last version.
I wanted to check the versions on https://samfw.com/firmware/SM-G960U, but I didn't find a G960U firmware for XAA csc, but I found one for G960U1 XAA
So my questions : Is there a place where I could find a SM-960U XAA version. , what is the difference between G960U and G960U1, is it safe to flash a SM-G960U1- XAA over the SM-G960U?
Any help would be greatly appreciated
PS I use the phone in France. Could it explain that I don't receive OTAs?
G960U looks to be a North American varient:
Download Samsung Galaxy S9 SM-G960F firmware
Download the latest Samsung firmware for Galaxy S9 with model code SM-G960F. Check out our free download or super fast premium options.
www.sammobile.com
So you wont find European specific fw for it.
