Hello.. the new firmware with may patch, is downgradable? because the build number is A520FXXUACSE6, the number for example 8 or 7 or 4 doesn't appear. appear the "A".. so the downgrade maybe work?

I think it is probably for security. Just in case there is a serious bug in an older firmware version. It helps prevent exploiting.

Hey there. I just got a Note 8 on Verizon with build BRB1 installed (Feb security patch). Any chance there's an Android Oreo build that I can upgrade to from my current software?
Thanks!

Is it worth losing the ability to root? Currently on a rootable firmware that's unrooted.

I find that with the theme manager and SABS, Samsung Ad Blocker, this phone is awesome with no root. My main concerns were customization and adblocking. All taken care of without root.
I turned off otas with the universal firmware upgrade.
How can I get Oreo?
Does it have Atmos sound like the S9?
finally samsung is rolling out android 10 for the A50, for now its available in india and korea but its a matter of days and it will be released globally

Any way for us to apply the update in other regions?

If you have the a505f model you can try the indian firmware (google this :A505FDDU4BTC4) but i advise you to wait for your region's firmware since it may be impossible to go back to Android 9 after the upgrade.
Here's the link F India firmware
https://sourceforge.net/projects/samsungfw/files/SM-A505F/INS/A505FDDU4BTC4/
I flashed the INS firmware, no issues so far. Camera is still crappy, and the fingerprint sensor is still the same.

I got the upgrade prompt but I clicked on later as it had low charge. But now, it says there is no update available. Did they pull it back?

Looks like Samsung is about to push out a revised package for the A505F for India.
A505FDDU4BTC4 original release, A505FDDS4ATB6 is what is being reported on Sammobile today.

Technically speaking, the first package was the Update and the second is a Security update.
I'm a little rusty on my Samsung naming convention, but I just went through my old files from my Note 8 days and it was consistent.
U for version update, S for security update.
Also the 4th letter from the end is another indicator of the version. A = OS at release, B = 1st version upgrade, C = second and so on.
So I have a feeling this new file is still Android 9, and is just a security update.
A505FDDU4BTC4 indicates Android 10 version upgrade.
A505FDDS4ATB6 indicates Security update for release OS version.

It's a shame and completely unacceptable that an Android 10 build released in 2020 doesn't have full camera2api support. It's something that was introduced with stock Android Lollipop 5.0!
Why is camera2api not working. Is there any telegram group of devs where I can request for the same?
Well I'm not getting the update... From India
[Solved] I upgraded to Android 10 by mistake, I thought it was the monthly security patch. I bought this phone from Kuwait but I think it's the United Arab Emirates version (XSG). I attached screenshots of my software, about phone and the Android 9 firmware which I'll download. Is everything correct.
I did it. Everything went smooth.

Yeah but isn't a developer site. Someone may have a solution.
This happened with me on my s9+.
If you can flash a twrp on the phone, just look for a Android 8 or 9 light weight custom os for your model and flash it through recovery.
Then try the patch certificate(repair network) option with any samsung box.
Use chimera for patch cert ..

I'd really like to be able to get this phone onto the Verizon network. I have the exact same software numbers as the OP and am trying to open my phone up to work on Verizon. I've seen bits and pieces that others have done it but never have found the complete successful procedure.
Anyone??
