If you wanna root the phone I'd use https://download.chainfire.eu/839/CF...jv-smn920c.zip and it might work. That's how I managed to root the s6 with 6.0.. using cfroot for 6.0 international models. Please someone confirm this.
Enjoy and don't forget to thank me:fingers-crossed:

we have an early engineering build for MM with the note 4 but was hoping for a newer build

Sweet!!! I wonder if this build is less buggy then the build we had previously? Has anyone else flashed this yet to confirm its good on the Sprint note 5? I just went back to OK3 Moar yesterday because I couldn't deal with the lag and bugs on the MM engineering build lol

AT&T update

Wanted to make sure I didn't miss anything. AT&T dad not pushed the update that Samsung and the other carriers have, correct?

Had the phone since the 7th, nothing on my end yet. Manually checked once last week.

I have had mine since the 7th too and no update.

Samsung has created one for AT&T, but AT&T has not certified it yet.

Hey norbarb, do I need to disable substratum themes on note 8 before i get an OTA? I keep checking manually and it says system is up to date, is substratum applied themes blocking the OTA somehow? Or will it update on its own and screw up my phone? I have substratum enabled themes and still can't get the new OTA as of today... Thanks for any advise!!! Your always a GREAT help!!

Has everyone got their OTA? I still don't have it available..... still on AQH7

Does anyone know if you have an unlocked version with AT&T firmware flashed still get the automatic update from AT&T? I kept checking and it still said I have the latest version, which is AQH7.

I believe you need an AT&T SIM card to get it. Someone correct me if I am wrong.

I do have a new AT&T SIM card and my IMEI is provisioned.

Try setting your clock ahead like 3 or 4 days. I think it's set up so it actually only checks once every 48 hours so you can't flood the system by just hitting check now over and over again. Setting your clock ahead sometimes helps

Thanks. I had seen some information indicating we MIGHT get some iteration of 7.1.x before getting 8.0. Who knows when we'll get 8.0 though. It's in beta now for the S8/Note 8, but even for those phones it's still probably going to be at least a couple of months before they get 8.0. And we definitely won't get it before they do...

I think it also updated the bootloader

Correct, it went from binary 4 to binary 5. From what I've read and gathered once you take the update you can't downgrade firmware because the older ones are using binary 4

One minor (major) thing they left out of the change log. People are complaining on the S7 forums because they can no longer flash to U firmware. I haven't tried it, but I've also seen people have issues with rooting now because they need an updated eng_boot.

Does anyone have this firmware for download? it's not on Samfirm yet and now im stuck in a recovery loop and trying to flash the previous firmware fails due to the new bootloader. Google shows nothing.

I'll confirm that this hotspot method still works after this latest update! It was one of my concerns.

Were you able to get this yet?
Here is the Sprint firmware, for use with Odin, from the newest release. I can't take credit for finding it -- I requested it in another thread and someone posted it for me. I have now put it on my GD (the link below), just in case the original one goes away.

I know that but I was referring to unreleased updates. The active is an odd duck and doesn't get as much love as the base s8 or s8+.

Can I update my s8 active with adb sideload??

If you have the zip file sure. Update it the same you would any other phone.

I have the same problem as the OP, AT&T told me that having the phone carrier unlocked did not make a difference. They also said I needed a warranty replacement, I called bull, so I reached out to Samsung, they told me to go to Best Buy to get them to push the update. I dont have the time to sit there for hours. So I come to you guys.
If what you say is true then I just need to be a bit more patient. Or should I just go to Best Buy and let them fiddle with my phone?
