Unable to get Oreo update on Galaxy S8+ SM-G955F - UPO Paraguay - General Questions and Answers

Hi me and my fiends have Galaxy S8+ (SM-G955F) model phones. We are unable to get official Oreo update through OTA and via samsung sync. We have checked sammobile for firmware updates and it is showing the list of all the regions which got oreo update but my model Galaxy S8+ SM-G955F - UPO Paraguay is still showing 7.0 there for the last two months. Can i flash firmware of UK in my device or should i wait for the official release.
Thanks

Nougat

When will we see a Nougat update for the Unlocked (SM-G930u) model?
Unfortunately with the quarterly update schedule of the g930u, I think it will be a good couple weeks, if not a month or two before we even see the nougat update. Samsung seems like they dropped the ball in supporting our unlocked US version.
Where can I find the info you based that off of?
thread from samsung forums about the g930u and its update cycle:

hope it helps!

Stock update Galaxy S8 SM-G950U ATT (Snapdragon version)

A friend brought me an S8-G950U Snapdragon version and I do not have the ability to get an att chip to update de firmware because I live in Argentina. I´m on G950USQUAQGL (August 1, 2017) and de software provider says ATT/ATT/ATT. Is there any way to update the firmware including Oreo?
I'm sorry but the more I read the more I get confused.

I don't see any ATT ROMs for the S8 SM-G950U listed in SamMobile. However, I do see ATT ROMs under SM-G950U1. But isn't the U1 the unlocked USA version of the S8?

Did you even find any ROMS for the S8 SM-G950U? I'm having the same issue with not seeing any AT&T options on SamMobile.
I'm facing same problem too. ATT does not release its stock firmwares quite often. However find below May,2018 patch wity Oreo. Waiting for such stock firmware for Pie.

Hi guys you can flash any firmware G950U from Sam mobile it work because these are multi csc.
Tested in my unlocked s8 G950U.
Sam Mobile seems to have disabled their free download option (possibly in maintenance). Anyone has a link the latest Pie stock with July 1 patch level (AT&T) and can share please?
I think the OP (and myself) looking for this one - https://www.att.com/devicehowto/tut...59?make=Samsung&model=SamsungG955U&gsi=x6lhdu
Edit:
1. Here is the Samsung Fan Club link to the latest (G950USQS6DSG4, as of 8/18) AT&T ROM (free fast download) - contains T-Mo User data, use the one from below

Samsung S10e not Receiving Updates (SM-G970U)

Hello guys,
I bought my brand-new Samsung S10e this year in early July and I havent received any update since the January 2020 security patch, which I assume was installed when the phone was manufactured. I was wondering if there's any issue with my firmware or anything. I have seen some recommendations for firmware flashing, I am a bit freaked out about it as I have never done it and I dont want to brick the phone. Additionally my phone is the US variant (Snapdragon) and New Zealand where I live has Exynos for the Default, further convincing me that the phone might have no compatible firmware for where I live to receive updates. I also read that it is not possible for Snapdragon to be rooted and so I was wondering if I could get comfirmation as to whether or not I could use custom ROMs. Any help, suggestions, or recommendations would be greatly appreciated, I am desperate for anything.
Phone model number: Galaxy S10e SM-G970U 128GB
Thanks in advance

Your best option is to download SamFirm 5.0 and download SM-G970U1 firmware XAA code. Youll get updates then. Search how to use SamFirm and tutorial how to flash with patched Odin.

Are you sure that I use the SM-G970U1 firmware and not the SM-G970U firmware, I just really don't want to screw it up, is there a link you could send so I'm not installing viruses? Thank you

2x ATT Samsung Galaxy S10E SM-G970U on ATT's network, no software/firmware updates.

I have 2x ATT Samsung Galaxy S10E SM-G970U on ATT's network and they never receive the latest firmware/software updates from this page:
Software update for the Samsung Galaxy S10e / S10 / S10+ / S10 5G (G970U/G973U/G975U/G977U)
I need the latest G970USQU4ETH7 (GS10e) firmware or G970USQS4DTG1 (GS10e) firmware.
Is it just this software update from ATT is just for big OS releases like when Android 10 moves to Android 11? My phone is on the G970USQS3DTDB (GS10e) stock firmware from May 22, 2020. Please assist if you guys can get it for me?
I have already worked with ATT and done a soft reset and cleared factory partition cache and other things including changing the SIM and these are 2 replacements of phones that didn't get updates either. Please assist.
You cant get ATT firmware that im aware of. But you can get G970USQU4ETH7 for USC(US Cellular). Just download SamFirm 5.0 https://samfirmtool.com/samfirm-v0-5-0 And enter SM-G970U in the Model section, and USC in the Region section. Then click check update. After downloaded flash as normal with Odin. If you do not know how to flash there are plenty of tutorials. Good luck!

Or, if you want the G970USQS4DTG1 just follow the same process but instead of using USC in region enter TMB(Tmo) instead.
