I manually installed android pie to german version G960FXXU2CRLI and now I lost my OTA updates. It still sits on january 1st
I am from Croatia and now I am looking at croatian pie version G960FXXU2CSB9. Should I install that firmware via Odin and do I need to factory reset my phone even if both are same android versions?
Will I receive OTA updates in the future if I update to G960FXXU2CSB9 ?
I have the same problem. I'm stuck on December 2018 security patch level after upgrading to Pie via Odin.

Hi
I have updated my stock naugat to feb 2018 but now i want to sideload 8.0 so i have to go back to dec patch how can i do that?
Use caution if you do this, it's my understanding that a couple of users have done this, and were subsequently hard bricked.
In addition to dandrumheller's reply, I would not recommend downgrading and then try to apply the OTA Oreo update. This appears to be a nasty hardbrick and the blankflashes we have do not seem to work.
Safest way would be to wait for the official Oreo OTA or the official Oreo fastboot ROM, as I mentioned previously to you.
Hi, i tried updating my android phone with the latest security patch from TMobile. I was on Android 8.0 and when i went to update it, the phone restarted and now i get the message.
"Security Error: This phone has been flashed with unauthorized software * is locked. Call your mobile operator for additional support. Please note that repair/return for this issue may have additional cost."
The problem is i have never flashed this phone whatsoever. i did obtain it via a warranty exchange and udpated it from android 7.0 to android 8.0 and it worked fine. I am not sure why this happened.
Anyway, i tried downloading the ODIN firmware file for 8.0 from the updateto website
Specifically: htt ps:/ /updato.com /firmware-archive-s elect-model?rec ord=EEDFC92B2E0611E89F15FA163EE8F90B (get rid of spaces)
But it only contains the March 20th, 2018 firmware file (which i believe is the original 8.0)
because i had updated past that i need a more recent odin flashable firmware.
When i try to flash the CRB9 firmware i usually get error (abl) Fused 3 > binary 2 or (bootrom) fused 2 > binary 1
I believe my problem is i am attempting to downgrade the OS version. So i need a more updated ODIN firmware file.
i looked at this url
htt p://fota-clou d-dn.ospserver. net/firmware/T MB/SM-G955U/versio n.test.x ml (get rid of spaces)
and found that the latest firmware is G955UOYN3CRD9/G955USQU3CRD9
Does anyone know where i can get this odin firmware file so i can reflash my phone and get it working again?
Which firmware you are on?
There's U3CRD4 update available to download.
i was on android oreo. Thankfully T-mobile said it was under warranty and replaced my phone!
About a month ago I flashed the leaked beta version of Android pie to my Verizon Galaxy S8+. Now that the official version is rolling out, can I just simply check for an update on my phone or do I need to flash back to Verizon firmware? Thanks in advance.
If you're still on the leaked beta pie version, then checking for updates won't work. You gotta flash an earlier firmware that's bootloader 5, either CSB1 or CSA4. You can get it from sammobile. I think you also have to factory reset your device after downgrading or it will be stuck in a bootloop, then check for updates manually from your device and update to official pie.

I have a S8+ and just got the Official Verizon system update 24 to Android Pie
Today 4/6/2019
I just got a second hand Moto Z2 Play which is a XT1710-09 on android 7.1.1 with security patch level February 1, 2018 and reteu Software Channel with build number NPSS26.118-19-22.
It was already reset when I got it and after I done my initial setup I got a prompt to update to android 8.0, April 1, 2018, OPS27.76-12-25 but after I wait for the download to finish (tried on both wifi and mobile data) it says the update couldn't be validated and to try again.
I went ahead in the recovery and deleted cache and factory reset once again and I get the same issue. The bootloader also shows the software as being modified and not official.
Any tips ? I really wouldn't want to return the phone because I love it so far but if there's no solution I'll just have to go ahead and get my money back
Ich guess your bootloader ist unlocked? Well then you cant make ota Updates anymore, but you can Install a full rom via Fastboot.
It says oem_locked when I boot into fastboot mode :/ I was able to update to February 2019 security patch and Android 8.0.0 by using fastboot tho. Is this the latest security patch available ?

Yep, that's indeed the last one.
That's the one I have.
I just updated to
Version
10.0.12.HD65AA
Updated on
August 11, 2020
Now I am having a problem with texts, is there a site where I can get the July update, and how do I go about making the downgrade. Can I do it through the phone update, or do I have to use TWRP or fastboot?
Thanks
