It's been a long while since the last system or security update on my S8+, EU version G955FXXU1AQH3
Any idea when we might get an update?
I could update to AQJ1 today. October 1 patch just in time for November ?
I also keeps an eye on (for NEE) http://updato.com/firmware-archive-select-model?q=SM-G955F&rpp=15&r=NEE&order=date&dir=desc&exact=1
Thanks! Still no joy here.
Still no update here. Has anyone in UK got it yet?

Yes, I told my friend about it and he got an update immediately after he signed up for the beta.
I didn't, I'm still waiting
Finally, finally, got the update notification today. Will be installing it tonight.
Hello everyone. I ve updated manually at february my galaxy s8+ with crap update. But since then i havent received any OTA update. Is there a problem with the update i made or samsung hasnt released anything since then? Because the instructions where saying that OTA updates will be received fine. The current version i have is G955FXXU1CRAP

Do you know if it's given in all countries? Should I wait for OTA or try to update manually?

I'm running a A-530F, H3G CSC variant on the 3 UK network and haven't received the November 2018 patch yet. I got the October 2018 security patch on the 18th October and from previous patch cycles I expect the November patch to arrive early to mid December. As a side note the October patch seemed to have improved performance compared to the September 2018 patch.

Though I think part of the slowdown in my case is the update being built for a carrier variant, this November 2018 update has come out late this month (from Sammobile, it looks like the A8 security patch was released last week https://www.sammobile.com/2018/11/23/galaxy-a5-2017-a8-2018-november-security-update/ ) Would I like it to be quicker? Of course, though the A8 is one of the few remaining non-S or non-Note Samsung devices to get monthly security patches. https://security.samsungmobile.com/workScope.smsb

Yeah, I've not seen any info regarding the W or N models. Looking at the release patch cycle for previous security patches, the A530W XAC looks to be overdue for its November update, given most updates were deployed around the middle of that associated and respective month https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/galaxy-a8/SM-A530W/XAC/

I'm in the European region usually the security update is pushed out a month after. So November security update is pushed in December
I got it 530F France
I have update with patch for november. I can't update without Odin. If I install new wersion with Odin, I'll must wate 168 hours for OEM unlock. Can this somehow be avoided?

I have SM-A530F. Can I copi OEM file in /device, save it on SD Card and after install new wersion replace OEM file with OEM Unlock?
I can't replace file without root. Before install new wersion of Android I maked Backup Android with TWRP, but I can't restore Android without TWRP, and I can't install TWRP without Oem Unlock. Everything spins in the circle.
I got the October update on the 26/10, 2 days later i received the November update.
November update is now out for A530W
But not out for some carriers like freedom mobile
On the November update SM-A530F, I was waiting 191 hours for OEM Unlock and nothing. The battery was running fast, so I returned to the October update and I'm waiting for OEM Unlock. On the October update, battery is O.K.

Hmm, maybe it's one of Sammy's tricks into getting either the s9 or the new a8s ?
I'm still on Aug, isn't there a newer one yet? Thanks

No, it's the newest one. You should be on either 10.5.20 or 10.5.21 (technically this version was only released for sprint I believe). Either way, there should be an update released soon (hopefully by the end of the month) with new security patches and more SA updates I'm assuming.
T-Mobile with 10.5.20 here. Still waiting on at least the September update. Should have bought the unlocked version from Oneplus like I did with my 7T.
I have had my Z Flip 3 since October 6th. I received the September 2021 security update immediately. But since the October 2021 update has been released, my phone will not get it. I have tried several times to check for updates, but it says there is no updates. Has anyone else on Verizon in the US got this update?
I see I can download an update from SamMobile, but I wasn't sure it was for Verizon.

Thank you, but this will not work for me. I loaded Frija, but Verizon updates are not available through Frija.

I believe the base update for the 711U is the same across all US carriers. Just pick another CSC such as TMB.
