[NEWS][+DOWN.LINK] Galaxy A8 (2018) and A8+ (2018) Oreo update rolling out in Russia

According to Sammmobile.com , Samsung has finally released the Galaxy A8 (2018) Oreo update, bringing an end to months of waiting for owners of the company’s latest premium mid-range phones. The Galaxy A8 (2018) and Galaxy A8+ (2018) are currently being updated to Android 8.0 Oreo in Russia. The rollout seems to have started over the weekend, and since it’s already mentioned on Samsung’s official website that details software updates, it should be available for most (if not all) users in Russia at this point.
Samsung’s official changelog suggests it’s an update similar to the one received by devices released before the Galaxy S9. Oddly, Dolby Atmos support isn’t mentioned, despite the devices’ user manual saying it’s included. That could possibly be because the A8 and A8+ only get Dolby Atmos for use over wired and Bluetooth audio, similar to devices like the Galaxy J6 and the Galaxy A6. The update also brings support for VoLTE on both SIM slots, which was recently made available for the Galaxy S9 as well. It’s unclear what security patch is included, but since the May security patch has already been out for these devices, it’s possible Oreo bundles the June patch. The July 2018 security patch is included in the update. The build numbers are A530FXXU2BRG1 and A730FXXU2BRG1.
Our What’s New With Android 8.0 Oreo series of articles is the best way to get details on some of the major new features and changes that Oreo brings to Samsung devices (and this official Samsung infographic is also something you should take a look at). To see if Oreo is available for your Galaxy A8 (2018) or A8+ (2018), open the Settings app on your device, tap Software update, then tap Download updates manually. The update is likely to take a few days to start rolling out in other markets; it could also be a few weeks, depending on how quickly Samsung expands the rollout.
The Russian Firmware is avaliable on Sammobile.com on the link below :
https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/galaxy-a8-plus/SM-A730F/SER/download/A730FXXU2BRG1/224366/
My question is ... will this firmware work on non Russian devices ?

It will.

It won't in any official state and has had 2 major updates since it's release in February 2017 like the A3 and A5 2017. It, like the other devices, is not eligible as it has gone through it's update cycle as per Samsung update policy.

Never.

As @moozer mentioned it already (but I have to add something) only the international A7 2017 devices (SM-A720F) won't get official pie as it passed the 2 major update schedule. There is still hope at least for the korean variant (SM-A720S). Samsung shipped SM-A720F with Marshmallow to our markets but SM-A720S were shipped with Nougat out-of-the-box in korea, that means SM-A720S only got 1 major update and maybe get a second one with android pie.
You can easly identify or compare it in the firmware releases:
A - android version out-of-the-box
B - 1st major update
C - 2nd major update
for example:
SM-A720F:
A720FXXU2AQG5 - Marshmallow
A720FXXU3BRB8 - Nougat
A720FXXU4CRG2 - Oreo
SM-A720S:
A720SKSU2ARB1 - Nougat
A720SKSU3BRK1 - Oreo
A720SKSU4CXXXX - Pie ??

So if they release pie for the 720s, then how much more work would need to be done for the 720f? If they build pie for one, they might as well build it for the other as they are similar.
Seems I read somewhere about sm-a720? getting pie, but don't quote me on it. It would make sense according to your post.

yes you're right both variants are very similar and it won't take much time for samsung to build pie for A720F too but this doesn't change the fact about A720F's major updates. We all know samsungs marketing: 2 major updates then security patches only.
I remember a scenario which really happened to S5 Neo. Samsung released in 2015 the Galaxy S5 Neo as SM-G903F, SM-G903M and SM-G903W. All were shipped with Lollipop 5.1.1. Also all got a major update to Marshmallow. However, when samsung started to release Nougat only the SM-G903W (Canadian) variant got it while the international varaints never got an official update to Nougat. And I can imagine a similar scenario might happen to A7 2017: SM-A720S will get Pie while SM-A720F won't.

It won't, because Samsung Screwed us all out of an update by releasing the phone on Marshmallow, when Nougat was long since available.

Well Samsung politics is under the moto "buy new phone"
Fook that

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.

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

[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.

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

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!!!!
