no september security update for my country - Samsung Galaxy A8 (2018) Questions & Answers

I haven't received any security update since august and i checked sammobile and found that it stopped on august but other countries already received the update. Can i flash any update from other countries to my phone to get the update?

Hello !
Yes you can flash another firmware on your phone ^^
I have the security patch of August 1 2018 on my Galaxy A8... What's your CSC / country ?
What's your model number ?

Unfortunately Samsung OTA's rollouts are unpredictable. If you can't wait for it tho, you can simply flash another country's firmware as much as it has your same OMC sales code. Ex. your TUR CSC is contained inside OJM OMC (if you look at CSC Firmware Build Number you can see it, Ex. A530FOJM3BRG2), so flashing any firmware with OJM OMC will do the trick (as per today, latest firmware for your OMC is A530FXXU3BRI1, ILO CSC).

Samsung never post changelogs So nobody knows...except a higher changlist number...As for the ''SD fiasco'' as you refer to, you might not use any version of Android post 4.3 because Google is not coming back on the external card philosophy...Deal with it or find a way to go around as we all do...There are solutions with root and without root...Just look...Not going to say ''Google is your friend''

Its nowhere to be found except on a few Hong Kong sites, very strange imo. Suppose it could be a non-official test leak.

We are already aware. These will be posted to a better download host as quickly as time permits
Okay, but when i saw those i've became surprised as i did not expect that the Tab 4 can get a taste of Sammy's Lollipop
can i use any of these on the 3g variant? (SM T531)
No, due to modem and bootloader differences
I have the SM-T535 LTE XEO version, can i flash the NEE version on it?
Yes mate!

You're going to be waiting for months, at least. First they're going to do the other models, which probably won't be until June, at least, and will be ongoing into July and probably August, if not longer. Then they'll slooooooowly start rolling out other regions. The build available now is for the Spain region, so I would be willing to bet the Italian language will be available, if that's your concern. And you don't need root to install these updates.
An example, I have an international model Galaxy S4 Active. The first LP update was released back in January, but they're still rolling out new regions, and even now there's only about 5 or 6 different regions available for a phone that is sold around the world in nearly every region imaginable. Since you especially don't have to worry about any specific carrier, what do you have to lose trying this update out?

New Phone Software info Issue

Hi, everyone.
Just bought a new galaxy S7 G930F. I checked the IMEI info on imei.info and it says the phone was released on Feb. 2016. But when I look through my cell phone settings, I found the software info indicate:
Kernel version
...
Mon Jul 4 11:12:05 KST 2016
SE for Android status
Mon Jul 04 11:40:03 2016
Why is Jul? Shouldn't it be Feb? I'm not quite know these phone& software updating stuff. Does it mean the phone has been used before selling to me?
(I haven't linked to wifi or connect to networks since I started the phone.)

SE means security enforcing.. (correct me guys if i'm wrong)... in other words, it means that the latest security patch that was applied by samsung on your device is in july.

Hi mate
Imei are issue before the device is made , if you wish to know when the device was made and if it had a CSC change use an app like PhoneInfo
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.vndnguyen.phoneinfo&hl=en
Thank you all for your help! Problem solved!
But one more question...
I did a little search about "CSC" (I don't know what the stuff is.......), and I found this:
Again, as the CSC of a Samsung Galaxy phone firmware contains the code-name of the country/region for which it is build, you can change it to tell Samsung servers that your phone is actually from a different country/region and get official updates for that country. It often happens that a firmware update is released for a particular country and you do not get it in your country. You grab the firmware file but are afraid that you will not be able to get the future official updates on your Android device if you flash a firmware that is not meant for your country.

The baseband version of my S7 is: G930FXXU1APEQ. It seems the baseband region is some European countries. I'm in the US, do you think it is necessary to change the CSC code?

It means Customer Service Code (CSC) and it provides specific configurations and software ( bloatware most times) for the designated region , most times is not big issue having a csc from a different region , unless you are having problems with the signal quality or you are missing an specific service from your carrier .
Anyhow G930F does not have a US CSC specific firmware as this model is the international model not "sold" in the US , you can change the CSC but you need to be root.
I would not worry too much

Question What is the latest software update version for GW4 LTE in India?

Hello,
I have not received any software update on my GW4 LTE since Nov 2021. My current software version is R875FXXU1DUJA.
When i contacted samsung support, they told that i will get it once a new update is released. But i have not got any update till now.
But on this forum, i see that a couple of updates are released in 2022 in other countries.
Can somebody confirm the latest software version of GW4 LTE in India?
Check FULL details about your Firmware...
Easiest way to enter Code:

According to my knowledge that INU is CSC for India:
http://fota-cloud-dn.ospserver.net/firmware/INU/SM-R875F/version.xml
R875FXXU1FVC8/R875FOXX1FVC8/R875FXXU1FVC8
FVC8 is latest for Region OXX...
Notify Update
We can try to identify your ACTIVE CSC...

@adfree I changed CSC from INU to MEA by dialing *#272*IMEI# to enable Samsung Pay app.
I refer the guide: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...gions-may-work-on-non-samsung-phones.4338385/
Is there any way i can start receive software updates?
Can Samsung support help in it?
