Thank you so much, I was unable to get the update as I live in the UK and I couldn't use it with my Gear VR.
You are an absolute legend!!!!!
How did you manage to get the update? And do you think you would be able to post the marshmallow update when it's released?

I love it. I hope you will create full odin for Android 6.x of N920A. Unable to update over US with AT&T
Acquisition of the software is definitely a great thing. My only question is this.... In past Samsung phones, flashing with Odin trips an "e-fuse" which forever forces a modified state on the device. For those of us that need the warranty or use the device under the AT&T Next plan, will flashing this void the warranty?

Thanks a lot to everyone, is this the latest firmware for note 5 SM-N920A? Will you able for Marshmallow too? And do you think any other model is compatible with Odin firmware? Thank you
Are there any significant improvement with this new firmware? As I live outside US this will be the first upgrade. Now I have a firmware dated last July!! And this newer what date has it got? Thank you

New Security Patch Today

Just checked for AT&T updates a few minutes ago on my Note5 and low and behold a new security patch update is available for the phone. It is a 77.77mb file. My current patch level is 2016-02-01 . . . It auto downloaded but gave me the option to hold off on the install until a later time and I did not install it. Does anyone have any information about this new security patch?

Sorry!
I just completed the install. It updated with a new baseband and build as follows:
Security Patch Level = 2016-05-01
Baseband = N920AUCS2APE3
Kernel (unchanged) = 3.10.61-7085450
Build Number = LMY47X.N920AUCS2APE3
Interesting... I wonder if the pressure from the FCC forced them to release this update? Doesn't make sense with their Marshmallow build OTA being developed as a PB2 to PE# convention...

So the security patch is still a month behind BPE6, which is June 1.
I wonder if those of us on BPE5 or BPE6 will have to revert to APE3 in order to get future OTA releases of 6.0.1.
And I'm curious what happens if we're on BPE5 or BPE6 and check for an OTA update now (I can't check for another several hours). Does it get confused, or does it just say we're still up-to-date?

Today's OTA is APB2-to-APE3.
So downloading that would be the same as waiting for the ota to come out?
I've tried to install it twice but after my phone restarts it comes up with a message that the install was interrupted. So I don't know what's going on with this update as I'm on a good wifi connection.

Waiting for which OTA to come out? We don't know if the OTA following today's APE3 will be a Marshmallow update, and if it is, we don't know if it will be BPE6.

Updated: Get your milk ready for official Oreo release (later)

4/23/2018 Update:
Seems Big Red made a big snafu in their announcement on their update page about the latest OTA being an Oreo update. Whoops!
http://www.androidguys.com/2018/04/2...alaxy-s7-oreo/
Also, they have fixed their software update page and removed all references to Oreo from the latest OTA:
https://www.verizonwireless.com/support/samsung-galaxy-s7-update/
It looks like we'll be seeing it before the end of May possibly:
https://androidcommunity.com/samsun...0-oreo-update-coming-in-a-few-weeks-20180424/
=========================================
Per Android Community, the finishing touches are being done on Oreo for the S7 family which includes those of us on Verizon's version of the phone as well as unlocked phones.
No firm date has been set yet, but it could be any day now.
https://androidcommunity.com/samsung-galaxy-s7-s7-edge-to-receive-android-8-0-oreo-update-20180418/
Per SamMobile, the US variants have been certified with Oreo.
https://www.sammobile.com/news/galaxy-s7-oreo-update-inches-closer
For many, this may not be a big deal, especially if you root and flash. But for those of us that have no need to root and flash custom ROMs, this is big news. But sadly, it probably also marks the last official upgrade for the S7s. We'll probably get one more year of security updates and then we're on our own at that point.
FYI: https://www.verizonwireless.com/support/samsung-galaxy-s7-update,
the update hasn't been release just yet

Yes, there has been some misunderstanding at Verizon. The changelog for the BRC3 says Oreo and lists all the features but it's actually still Nougat OS. Can you share the screenshot from your device of the software info screen showing the Android OS and build no. both?

did they push the wrong update? or publish the wrong change log?
i think it was a fix for the update we had earlier this month , it was sucking my battery.

I definitely had an update applied in last two days at least that is BRC3 so looks like wrong changelog. Verizon support is clueless but is forwarding it to their IT team supposedly..
Edit: Also they mention April 1st security patch in Oreo/BRC3 changelog, I do have that as well but I think those can be pushed without OS update. None of the Oreo features are anywhere to be found though and still 7.0 according to about this phone.
or maybe its a multi-stage update.
an update to prepare for the update.

If you're not on Verizon's network, you own't receive the update. You'll have to wait for someone to upload the Verizon image and then ODIN it.

AT&T OTA and Non-OTA Updates G975U

See Post #2 for the Link to Odin Files
It doesn't appear that Firmware.Science is updating their site any longer. I'm removing the link since it's useless to us now. I'll continue to try and get the Odin files as they drop and add them to post #2 for everyone
Understanding the Firmware labels
Here's a better understanding of how these are broken down
G=Galaxy S series
975U or F etc, the model of device
SQ, FX etc = CPU and model specific
U,S,E = Update, Security, Engineering, respectively
1,2,3,4,5 etc = bootloader rev(this is important!)
A = Pie rev 1(This starts off with "A" as the build that is the initially shipped on the device. S10 series is Pie)
(If you ever see a build that contains a "Z" such as this: U5ZSBA, that means the build is part of Samsung's Official Beta program. The "Z" in this context replaces the Android Version letter which hides what OS it actually is.)
R,S,T = Year (R is 2018, S is 2019, T will be 2020)
A,B,C etc = month (January A - December L).
1 - 9 and then A - Z =build compilation. This basically means how many builds there are in a month. They start at 1 and go to Z.
So G975USQU1ASBA would be
G975-U-SQ-U-1-A-S-B-A
G975U (Galaxy S10+ Carrier version), SQ (Snapdragon), U (Update), 1 (Bootloader version), A (Build Pie), S (2019), B (February), A (Build)
**You CANNOT downgrade to a lower Bootloader. So if you are on a Bootloader 2 rom, you can not go to a Bootloader 1 rom.

Not if you've flashed G975U1UEU1ASBA, that is a Unlocked Firmware. G975USQU1ASBA is the Carrier version and you would get OTA (AT&T/Spr/T-Mo/AZW)

They made some tweaks to the camera to improve quality too.
ARGGG! Thought I might have included the front camera ring notifications simpler than the APK on the Play store.

If you've got an AT&T SIM, then there should be no issues at all. You will get the AT&T bloat, but you can disable it and you will also get the "features" like Wi-Fi calling...

Samsung Galaxy A50 July Security Update

Hello All,
Just got July Security upstate.
Not able to find any new features.
Please find the attatched screenshot for official changelog.
Do you have night mode and super slow mode options in your camera? If not, resettting your camera app to default and clearing cache should fix it.
You got July update, and I don't even have June update, I'm still on May update... Though I'm having A505FN version.
i think we got the option of super steady toggle in videos
