Samsung S20 Ultra 5G G988U upgrade to Android 13 - Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions &

Good day,
I currently have a Samsung S20 Ultra 5G (G988U) that's currently on;
One UI 4.1
Android 12
G988USQU2FVF1
I currently do not have eSim function on this version, but it is available on G988USQU3FVG6_USC version. Can i flash just the HOME_CSC file on my current bootloader 2 version with this bootloader 3 version in order to get the eSim function?

it is possible to flash the firmware but you will lose 5G capability and other features, is better to wait for the official update, you are not missing something important

[Beta] Galaxy S20 FE 5G OneUI 3.0 Android 11

Galaxy S20 FE 5G OneUI 3.0 Android 11 Beta Open Official
Hey,
I assume you have a korean variant as I cannot find any updates for any of the CSC codes for the SM-G781U1 (US/Canada non MM wave 5g version).
Also, I was curious, and the third image you have posted, the URL for the page details links to an s20 Ultra.
Any info you have would be great. Especially selfie comparisons. The front camera in 2.5 has terrible forced smoothing that makes you smudgy and pink.

Yeah, but also think there is no 5g variant there, as I can see that there isn't a firmware for that CSC

Is flash via Odin better than updating via OTA? Now that samsung has released One UI 3.0 so i am thinking to flash via Odin to get the best possible experience. Hopefully it will fix the Touchscreen issue too.

there is no difference between ODIN and OTA
when flashing via ODIN, in order not to lose your data and have gour phone reseted, chose HOME_CSC and that is it.
Hopefully that soneone will post here the download link for S20 FE 5G G781B OneUI 3.0 Android 11 firmware

Last month someone said that we could get it on 27th but I hope we will get it before. Samsung is also releasing the update for devices that were scheduled on January like ZFlip, S10 Lite and A51 5G
Awesome job from Samsung

HI.Have you received the update for S20U 3.1?

我的设备是SM-G988U。我没有收到来自OneUI 3.1的更新。我朋友的G988N已收到OneUI 3.1的更新
Translation: My device is SM-G988U. I did not receive the update from OneUI 3.1. My friend's G988N has received the update of OneUI 3.1
thank you
I have an ATT G988U 1CTLB now, and I see G988U 1DUB5 out there... will flashing to that give me 3.1?
I have an unlocked/unbranded S20 5G G981U1 bought from Google Fi, it's OYM, XAA, got all the updates installed the normal way through the phone. I just installed Smart Switch on my PC and connected it to the phone and it detected an update. It shows my phone currently has PDA: UA2, CSC: UA2, PHONE: UA2 (XAA), and it says latest software version is UB7 for all 3 of those, 5,682 MB update. It's downloading now, hopefully this is One UI 3.1!
It gave this website but maybe it's not updated yet with the changelog: https://www.sammobile.com/samsung/galaxy-s20/firmware/SM-G981U1/SPR/download/G981U1UES1CTL5/1108696/
EDIT: WOOOOO it updated to One UI 3.1, has March 1, 2021 security update too!!!!

good job!
AT&T is pushing out the update for s20+
2 days ago. I have the U1 software installed on the Canadian W series.
Anyone with esim enabled with the new update ?

S20 ultra 5g OTA no update

I just bought a used s20 utra 5g
As far as I can tell it seems genuine. Its fast and 120hz works.
CSC is EUY
SM-G988B/DS
Says firmware official and SDK Level 29
However
It says android 10 and patch Level Feb 2020 In the software info.
When I go to software update it finds no updates.
Should this have android 11 or at least a newer patch level.
Any suggestions/ ideas
Go here and find your appropriate carrier to update gradually to android 11

Is the Root using Magisk out for Android 13 KSA/UAE Version?

I am having an S20+ Ultra KSA (Saudi Arabian) variant. Since my specific model's latest android 13 hasn't been released, I am going for the UAE variant's Android 13 ROM. My question is that has the root for SM-G986B running android 13 been released or not yet using MAGISK ?
If you have G988B (Exynos) there should be no prob with Magisk. There are some probs with Snapdragons.
Yes. My phone variant is the international model with EXYNOS CPU. The model is SM-G986B. But there is a catch. Last year when Android 12 was released, the most recent versions of MAGISK at that time were not successfully patching the AP file of the Android 12 ROM. I read it on many forums and I also tried it myself 3 times. Finally JOHN WU of MAGISK had to re-release a new version of MAGISK with some additional modifications in it for rooting the Android 12 AP file. I am wondering if I am going to face such an issue again. What are your thoughts?
Easiest way is to install custom ROM - Beyond, Unbound, Ambasadii... I cannot say if patching AP from official sams. ROM works. You have to try :-(
