Hi, does anyone know why F936U1 with XAA keeps pulling up S(Android 12)? I had to flash to F936U with TMB, but now I'm subjected to the bloat and missing the extra malware scans my unlocked phone had before. Also for some reason F936U doesn't let me download updates with XAA? Basically trying to get my good unlocked firmware back but it seems like F936U1 doesn't have the latest update?

Unlike the international model, F936B, Android 13 has not been rolled out for the F936U1 variant yet. See...

I've got a T-Mobile S9 that I'd like to convert to unlocked so that I can get Android security updates directly from Samsung...I'm guessing that there are two steps to this:
1. Get the phone unlocked from T-Mobile carrier.
2. Flash an unlocked firmware image on my phone.
Which raises some questions. First off, if I do this, will I start getting security updates directly from Samsung? Is there anything additional that I need to do to get this started?
My next question is where can I find an image for the unlocked Samsung S9 firmware that I can flash? Is there a procedure for doing this somewhere? I've been looking around and haven't found anything relevant. So I obviously haven't looked in the right place yet *smile*.
I expect that my next step is to look at the postings for the Samsung S8 and see what's there for that. That might give me an idea of what's out there and what I can expect if I do this.
Thanks for any help.
i did this on my at&t U version, now on U1, everything works just fine, but i'm not sure how fast the U1 model get the security patches compare to the exynos, we're on april and i'm still on february patch

My Exynos 960FD is currently on the march security patch, and its the latest version (it did a update today for better stability while calling and higher quality wallpapers).
Hi, my Samsung S9 (SM-G960F, dual SIM) was purchased in May 2018 from Dubai (fully unlocked) and is being used in India. There were no carrier restrictions at the time of purchase, it was purchased fully unlocked.
Even today, it still shows Android Security Patch Level at 1/April/2018. I have enrolled into Samsung Pie beta, and I try everyday to download software manually, but no update has come, either in security patch or in software version. The details are given below:
When I try to update software manually by going to software update - download updates manually, it says 'The latest updates have already been installed. Current version : G960FXXU1ARD4/G960FOXM1ARCA/G960FXXU1ARD6'
When I go to settings - software information, the android version is 8.0.0, samsung experience version is 9.0, baseband version is G960FXXU1ARD6, build number : R16NW.G960FXXU1ARD4, kernel version : 4.9.59-13138374-QB17882910 [email protected] #1 Tue Apr 24 11:50:17 KST2018, android security patch level : 1 April 2018
I have even downloaded Samsung Smart Switch and tried downloading latest software but no use. The message I get there is 'Your software is up to date : RD4(INS)'
Please help. At this rate, I am not sure if I will receive any updates at all, even security patches. I dont know what is the problem.
Thanks in advance.
Flash it manually with ODIN, loads of guides all over XDA if you look
Thanks a a lot.

I have downloaded Odin v 3.13.1. I have downloaded the Android Pie firmware available in Sammobile applicable in UAE and the firmware is G960FXXU2CRLI/G960FOXM2CRLI.
Can I directly update my firmware from G960FXXU1ARD4/G960FOXM1ARCA using Odin 3.13.1 to G960FXXU2CRLI/G960FOXM2CRLI. Please advise.
Thanks.

Yea, just flash as normal, your bootloader will change to version 2 so you will not be able to downgrade back to that current firmware you are running as it is version 1

Thanks a lot for the prompt response. I would attempt to directly flash to this version in one step tonight.
Thanks once again.

So is one plus just not going to release full versions of OxygenOS for AA model? Basically no way to update to 11.2.4.4 on Global model as far as I know...
yeah man I know I'm still on 11.2.2.2 waiting on a full update because I'm rooted.
Global always seems to take longer for it's updates
I got the update on Global a couple days ago for what it is worth.
Really where are you located? Carrier?

What do you mean "release"? On their download page? They always take ages to put build on there (if they even do).
If you want a full release then install Oxygen Updater and set it to your regional OP9P then set full update, you'll usually end up getting it downloaded quicker than OTA

I do. The latest full update Oxygen Updater is showing is 11.2.2.2. I have 11.2.3.3 (because I rooted after installing that OTA) and I HAVE the 11.2.4.4 OTA already, but I can't install it for obvious reasons. Hence the original question. There's no way to update a rooted Global Variant without going back to stock.
I received it a few days ago. 2125 on TMobile..
Is that op9, the pro is 2127 correct?

If that question was to me, I have the Pro and it is the unlocked 2125 variant purchased directly from OnePlus. I am new to OnePlus so my nomenclature might be off.

Nope your right sorry. I was thinking about the tmo version. Carry on.
People need to stop saying they got the update for 11.2.3.3AA and 11.2.4.4AA. We are all talking about the Full OTA as many of us are currently rooted on 11.2.2.2. Those that are on 11.2.3.3 or 11.2.4.4 are either unrooted or are using the EU/In versions. I for one will wait until AA is available.

This is inaccurate. I'm rooted, AA variant, AA update, 11.2.4.4
The forum is littered with threads about taking the incremental OTAs rooted.
Attached for reference.

Exactly incremental OTA, I stated about the Full OTA. 11.2.3.3 and 11.2.4.4 are not out yet, and people have mentioned not being able to even install the incremental OTA. I for one haven't tried to unroot, take the incremental OTA and re-root. Payload dumper will not extract the boot.img from the incremental OTA therefore I can not re-root. Can I ask how you re-rooted without having the untouched boot.img to patch and boot?
I got my 9 pro yesterday and it has indian firmware which i don't like. Is it possible to change it to global one. I'm on 11.2.5.5.
Also is it possible to use msm tool for Indian variant on this handset?
Thnx. Really hoping to get some answers
It should be, you should be able to download the global firmware from OPTeam's list of them and just flash in local update.
Yes, you can.
The only problem is 11.2.5.5 is too new, there is no full upgrade package yet. You can try flash an older global version rom, but with the risk of brick your phone. Through I think worst could happen is you have to wipe your phone.
You can find download link for global rom in this thread.
Q: How do I switch to Europe or Global OS?
A: Wait for the new version, download the #Full package and Local Update it. If you have Magisk installed, you can try to Local Update after entering the following command (need ROOT access).
resetprop ro.build.date.utc 1400000000

That's my case too.
I'm also in the 11.2.5.5 Indian SW.
So it's better to wait for a Global 11.2.5.5 or newer to flash over it? Right? It's not necessary to erase all data?
Does someone know what are the benefits from Global over the Indian? It seems that OnePlus is giving more attention to Indian market (updates, features, etc)

From what I can tell, there is no discernable difference in the firmware other than bloat directed at the Indian market. I'm also on LE2120 in the U.S. running the DA firmware. Everything on my device is fully functional as far as WiFi, 5G connectivity and all that. I debloated all the Indian specific bloat (red cable club, cloud storage and the like, especially since it doesn't work here in the States). I expect you can flash other regions firmware without issue or data loss so long as the other regions firmware is "newer" than what you're already on, otherwise it simply won't let you using local upgrade.
I'm also on LE2120 in the UAE running out of box coloros, then downgraded to the DA firmware, today I have updated to Global 11.2.5.5 . Everything on my device is fully functional except 5G (ETISALAT) and Invalid VIP NV's:2500 at every restart

is the nv 2500, the verification in about phone page in system setting and the missing 5g all related upon cross flashing the color os to oxygen os?

Looking for guidance with downloading A52s 5G A528BXXS1BVB1 / A528BOXM1BUL7 (Feb, 2022) firmware using Frija
Samsung only stores the latest firmware package in their servers, the only way to download it is via third party providers like SamMobile or GalaxyFirmware
