Update it using your phone is much faster!
Update log says Enhancement to Apps!
I do notice an optimized used of OSB in Apps and games that previously was kind of truncated by the OSB causing it a non-full-screen game play. :good:
I also noticed that the sound quality from the speaker has been improved with the stock player, :good:

So have I. The LTE option was there in mobile network settings on 10e but now on 10f the option is not there. Luckily for me, I am not on an LTE contract as it is not available in my immediate area....weird.

You would need to get your hands on a 10e kdz for this device then follow this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=50703054&postcount=1. I'm not sure if anyone's posted one here yet, I'm new to this device. I only got it yesterday.

Let me know how you get on and I would be interested in what other issues that you have. I don't have any and I am on the same device/network as you.
We could probably re-enable lte from the hidden settings menu if we could find out the correct number to dial for this and, if not, root and an amendment in the build prop would probably work but, root looks a bit complicated at the moment. In saying this, I don't see why we should have to be addressing this ourselves but I don't expect this is something EE will assist with as this device is not for our network/country officially.

7.0 update here?

It says that the Galaxy Note 7 is also in testing for Nougat. Wondering if that's toast just like the phone lol. My first pun about the Note 7.

[I wish we had] Root for s8 and s8+ (Snapdragon variants)

So it looks like chainfire has developed a root for the Snapdragon variants of the s8 using CF Auto root. Still no unlocked bootloader or TWRP but it's a start.

The EngBoot.img will be released within the next couple days. That means that root will come soon after that.

Delete this thread. People have already talked about this so much. Those files were released by a bot that generates it for any device. We don't have an unlocked bootloader, flashing this will fail. You're essentially baiting people and wasting their time.

Not going to buy it not worth the hassle and if everyone look the the gsmfourm they have it posted for the open public I see no reason to use it because the bootloader are locked not point what so ever

Root DOES exist on the S8 Plus CAN and US variants
I just went on Chainfire's website and the root DOES exist.
Just do CTRL + F or Command +F for Macs and type in the Model Number. In my case it was the G955W. So yes the OP is right and yes there is a root out for all S8 Plus devices for Snapdragon variants.
And no this is not a bot that generates it, this is the real thing.

[Firmware] Flashing a carrier-free firmware

Hello guys,
Long story short, I bought an S8 plus at the beginning of this year, carrier-unlocked it (it used to be on Vodafone Romania) and everything went good (I didn't root it because I didn't feel the need to do it) but the only issue is that I have stopped receiving any software updates (still on Android 8).
My question is, given the fact that my current firmware is the Vodafone carrier one and CNX(Vodafone Romania) CSC even though my phone got carrier-unlocked, will there be a problem if I flash a Romania carrier-free official firmware from sammobile?
I tried asking this in different threads but no answer so far.
Thanks!

if its the G9##F model, and the recovery is stock, you will still receive updates as planned from whatever firmware version you flashed and your IMEI. Also, i have seen many people with similar issues across several Sammy devices in the recent past and honestly, the best solution is to download the firmware yourself and force it on. It takes a grand total of like 20 min provided you have a decent internet connection. Get the Frija firmware download tool here and get whatever version you need in 1/10th the time it would take if downloading from sammobile.com/firmwares directly.
just d/l it yourself and flash it manually

not that this is at all really pertinent, but my fiancee was born and raised in Piatra Neamt, and ive visited her homeland on two separate occasions for 3 weeks each time. I freaking love Romania! Its gorgeous, the food is superb (mici is now one of my favorite things of all time). Its just a shame that its being run by what seems to be a bunch of crooks. Buna sera!!

I have a problem to upgrade the firmware s8 g950u tmb, because the firmware model listed on the cellphone is different from the one printed on the pcb and also recovery mode, on the recovery reads the g950u but the cellphone information shows g950f, I live in Indonesia how should I choose the firmware suitable for my s8, now the condition of the phone is still on Android 7.0 thank you.

you may have a phone that has been repaired then. the 950f firmware will not work on a 950u or any of its snapdragon brethren. If you are absolutely certain that youre running U firmware, then just stick with that and manually update with the HOME_CSC every once in a while.

yes, I believe this is the G960U firmware, if I pay attention to the serial number of this Firmarr as the G950U firmware which is changed by "U" to "F" AP G950FSQU2CRB9 CP G950FSQU2CRB9 CSC G950f0YN2BRB9
