S8 G950U1 Aug Update AQH3 - Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion

Just downloaded the 174MB August Upate (AQH3) for my US S8 Unlocked model G950U1.
But it doesn't list what fixes or changes the update includes, and point to the site:
http://doc.samsungmobile.com/SM-G950U1/ATT/doc.html
But the AQH3 isn't listed yet.
My guess is it has the same fixes and changes that are on the Verizon update:
https://www.verizonwireless.com/support/samsung-galaxy-s8-update/?AID=11365093&SID=j6yw1mb6wn01uf0k00dzw&vendorid=CJM&PUBID=6169073&cvosrc=affiliate.cj.6169073
Will report back after update is installed.
I hope we can still use the ABD method of changing the bottom Navigation Bar Color!

Now with AQH3 installed, I see it has the "Faster Face Unlock" option (but I use Iris).
But I don't see this double tap option:
"With this update, users can double tap the lock / unlock button (instead of a single tap) to prevent any accidental or unintentional change in the navigation bar configuration."
Also can report the Notification Bar color is still set to the blue that I had done via ADB.

Also please note the US Unlocked Model G950U1 update was 174MB, but the international update was 600MB.

I'm still stuck at AQG2. Why I didn't get the OTA update?

Usually comes in waves. I just downloaded the update and Odin'd it. The website I used was updato.com or something like that

Does this update prevent the original Adhell from working?
Ans: No it does not effect Adhell from working.

Got it today on mine. No noticeable changes

Interesting. Still no update notification for me yet, will have to check tomorrow again.

Just got update on Verizon, anyone else?

My S7 Edge just downloaded and is installing an update, just an FYI. Probably the one everyone else already got on other carriers.
I got one on AT&T just now
Just started on my phone - verizon..
Just got mine as well. Any ideas on what was updated?

Looks like all it was was security fixes. I read someone saying it fixed their SD card mounting messages.
Looks meh.
Got mine. I swear my Android version said 6.0 when I got the phone, says 6.0.1 now. Am I crazy? Or did it just update to that

It's the March security patch.
Edit: Apparently not. Even though Verizons page says "The current software update gives you the most up to date Androidâ„¢ security patch on your device." This update is still on the February patch.

Yeah me too. Verizon says on its update page "The current software update gives you the most up to date Androidâ„¢ security patch on your device." I figured this meant March.

The Kernel has last Thursday's date, could be that...now I know to take screenshots of my settings before taking an update .
If anyone on Verizon hasn't yet taken the update please post up some screenshots of your "about" information.
Verizon updates us from Android build PB1 to PB4 on the same day that AT&T and Tmo update their users from PB6 to PB8.
Verizon's current update build is two revisions behind the build the other carriers shipped with!

Anyone else get this update? I'm on sprint. Also, I haven't installed it yet, I presume I need to flash the stock recovery if I choose to take the update

Mmmmh htc did not plan to update the A9 now so maybe it's an update late of MM. But still sense 7.0
Sent from my HTC One A9 using XDA-Developers mobile app
The only thing I've noticed is that that amoled saturation controls have been brought back
same here, i'm on sprint. is it ok to flash being deodex?
Not sure. I haven't got too deep into flashing on this phone, as there's not a heck of a lot to flash. Typically no, you would need to be stock odex and stock recovery to take an ota
Sent from my 2PQ93 using Tapatalk
me too , i have this update 2 days ago , only changes i noticed :
* my hand free stopped working with my htc a9 and now its back again
*have new app called ""HTC VIP" , but its not working in my country
@k2buckley yeah, what a shame :/ i guess i'll have to wait and see what's new with this ota. it was a pain in the arse to get all things done yet i have some issues.
I'm getting that annoying notification about the system update. I'm just rooted with twrp. What would be the best way to update?

Have a look in Post TWRP Recovery #2
chapter 8,9 and 10.
NB: Download and save the ota in your sd card (you'll find it in /data/data/com.htc.updater). You could share it for XDA members...
Cheers
was about to ask the question where i could find it, thanks kho
any feedback abt this ota?
Only thing I've noticed is we have an option for the fingerprint scanner to wake the screen and use it as a home button.
it was already there. i think it's just some improvements and bug fixes.

tmo sending an update.

Doesn't seem to be much of anything. June patch and "enhancements."

Android Security Patch is updated to June 1, 2017.
patch came through 6/29/2017.
update went smooth. Everything seems stable.
yes, security updates to 6/1/2017.
I googled the "System Enhancements" and there were no documented enhancements posted . . .
Can anyone identify any known enhancements?
Hi all. This update from T-Mobile is causing serious MODEM problem to my S7 Edge G935T, I can't get any access to internet over LTE. Only Wi-Fi i can used, PICTURE message is problem. I call T-Mobile and they say Samsung didn't test the update so now a lot of S7 Edge user have to go best buy Samsung store for them to downgrade the software.
---------- Post added at 02:13 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:55 AM ----------
I have downgrade it my self, when 7 different security patch back, even to ANDROID 6.0 the problem still persist.
Normally used the U FIRMWARE with T-Mobile CP for better speeds. Now I'm running more test, I did standard T-Mobile update from software version 4BQB1, so far I'm updating my apps only on LTE, looks good now. Will see what happens in a few hours.
Just bought my S7E used and ran this latest OTA update... it sent me into boot loops that persisted through multiple master reset, cache clearing etc. even in safe mode. Used Odin to roll back to the C1 update and all is good. Will probably try to update again this weekend.
Has anyone else spotted anything new?

Neat enhancement if you use this feature.

The option to update software by OTA has disappeared from Huawei Support App ( ! )

Within the Huawei app called Care or Support, the option to update software by OTA has disappeared.
It was very important because patches that did not appear in the phone's own update appeared in it.
Check your Huawei even if it is any other model because this option has disappeared.
I attach a screenshot, sorry that the menu is in Spanish.

I disabled it (it cannot be uninstalled), I re-enabled it, my region is Spain, I installed the updates from the App Gallery but nothing, Update has disappeared.
Well, if it has disappeared and my Mate 30 Pro is Chinese like @Sathelp , when you turn off your Mate 30 Pro or restart it, stay tuned because this option will disappear.

Turn off or reboot your phone and the check it again.
Maybe could be disappear Update option.
Log out, make a new account but choose China as your country.

Updated to Android 10 through normal OTA in Spain. Data preserved, without any problem. Everything works fine. (model XT2019-1, RETEU)
Hi,
I have an issue related the adaptive brightness: it's activated but the brightness not changing (at the moment it remains at 82%). If I modify manually it remains at that value.
I have already:
- disabled/enabled it
- rebooted the smartphone
- reset the smartphone
but the issue persists.
Any idea?
Thanks.
