They also told me to wait for good news for old Note7 owners in Canada and nothing came back positive. Search my post and similar screen shot of conversation i've had with them. Total bs. Not saying yours is too but I now do not believe anything they say.

They're just telling you what you want to hear... They also told to a guy here on xda that the snapdragon variant had an unlocked bootloader.
Beta
I do t believe anything Samsung says anymore they have lied over an over an given false info more then once..
I talked to chat support too and kept getting different answers. My bet would be were not getting the beta unfortunately and the eventually coming to Canada their talking about is the actual Oreo release.
I went to Samsung Support Chat today and enquired as to whether or not Canada was going to be receiving the Oreo Beta release - I was told that If & When - Samsung would send emails to the owners of the Canadian SM-G955W...... Did not sound very promising... But who knows? ?

Samsung USA does not recognize my IMIE and the phone is no longer showing on the site. I tried to register it with no success so i called customer care and was told my IMIE isn't in the system, any advice?
Isn't that an canadian version, the Rogers one?
Yeah i'm using it on AT&T. The phone was on the site a couple of days before i got mine.

Mine is the same version so, I will try registering maybe it has to be done through Samsung Canada.
i tried but it requires a Canadian address

Then Samsung USA wouldn't cover the warranty, since it wasn't sold in USA market.
yeah i was afraid of that
I bought mine from Best Buy in Canada but can't register it on Samsung Canada's site. The model number i9020a does not exist in their database...
so this issue is not just a samsung usa problem

Even the i9020t is not in the list, so does samsung usa show the i9020t?
Just registered my i9020a but had to call Samsung Canada and do it over the phone. You get 3 months additional warranty when you register.

I'm curious of the same. I took a look at At&t's preorder page and the watches they are offering have direct TV and some other bloatware preinstalled so that may be an indication that the updates come from the carrier... Hoping not though.

If Samsung takes over updating the carrier LTE watches, that would be a welcome change. As of now, on the Gear S2 3G & 4G family of watches, the carriers have been releasing the updates on their own schedule with AT&T being the best and Verizon & T-Mobile lagging behind.

Hi Guys,
It has been a while since I used an android and the usual problem with carrier phone is they lock some bands (dont know why they do this) and undeletable bloatware.
Saw some ads in eBay that are selling refurb pixel phones and the price is not that bad.
I just want to ask will there be some issues of using verizon pixel in Canada or is it possible to change the firmware of the phone to make it global so it can unlock the bands,
Thanks for those who will reply
Today or tomorrow you can find out!
New firmware will be floating around. Try to take the update to your device. See what update it tries to push.
Hopefully it does a good thing for you..

Nice thanks again, will buy the verizon google pixel later, it will be a long month struggling to learn Android and new features
Been trying to find something about this variant with no luck just got the April security update but no Android 10..
I have the T-Mobile variant (SM-T867U). I called T-Mobile and they could tell be nothing. I also read somewhere that the Verizon variant had the update rolling out maybe 2 weeks ago. It seems like the delay is with T-Mobile at this point. I also asked about being able to beta test and was told there's no option for customers to beta test with T-Mobile. Looks like we just have to wait and watch our toe nails grow.
Tmobile is always last to get any sort of update. We're usually last for updates on my S20U

I'm super annoyed with T-Mobile on this but saying they are always last is silly. It is such wide variance with literally every carrier. Sometimes T-Mobile seems on top of it and at other times it's ridiculously delayed. In the case of the Galaxy Tab devices, it's clear that Samsung barely keeps support going for each variant and T-Mobile has almost no focus on supporting them. That has been consistent for at least 2 years now and it has caused me to completely switch over to an iPad Pro.

When it comes to the major 4 carriers in the US, the Tmobile variant is always last to get every firmware update. Verizon is usually first, and Tmobile is mostly always last
Hi i got the tab s6 from tmobile and i have doubts if is a good idea to flash it firmware to international or other variant of it?
Still waiting for Tmobile ?
Still waiting on tmobile too anyone has patched the German or UK firmware on their tab s6 just want to know if the LTE Bands works here fine the bans is my only concern here ?????
I'm guessing we aren't getting it
avid_droid said:
Yep. Disgusted with the lack of security updates for the Tab S6. You pay 725 with Tnobile and get an outdated tablet and just stays outdated. This is a shame. They should be charging cheaper for an outdated tablet.

Damn, I really wished I researched this before latching on to TMobile for S6. Didn't realize a lack of root for this tablet was in at as well. Oh well. Hopefully a solution will happen soon enough
Downloaded the UK and German version and attempted to install with ODIN, patched and unpatched. Got a Fail each time.

Wish we at least get a SM-T867U1 version so we could get an unbranded Tab.

I spoke with tech support the other day and they said they've already received numerous calls. She said she made a note and emailed the team to find out what the hold up is. So hopefully soon we receive the update. Its a shame to pay 725 for an outdated tablet with no support.

This was a lie from support. They didn’t do anything whatsoever without giving you some sort of issue tracking number. They say all sorts of BS to appease customers
avid_droid said:
Yep. Kinda figured that. It was funny though. At first she was like," android 10 is the firmware on the device and was pushed out." Then when she checked again she was like, " sorry, Samsung hasn't pushed the update." Then in which I told her that wasn't true because it has been pushed and tmobile hasn't released it. Im just irritated that we pay 725 for it and its outdated. Tmobile shouldn't be doing that kind of crap.

Yeah man, it's freakin disappointing. I'm still within my 14 day return, so I definitely been thinking about that....
I can't even root the thing because there's no OEM unlock in the developer settings

Return it! Seriously. It is definitely not worth the price because even Samsung barely maintains tablet support. All of their focus is on a new tablet to compete with iPad Pro anyway.
Regret getting mine bow from Tmobile. I'm just going to pay it off and sell it for the new iPad
It's released

It's not about "crying" so to speak.
It's about paying $700+ for a machine that should be kept up to date with the latest software
