A friend of mine from Switzerland has received Nougat 7.0 on his S7 Edge.
He was not in the beta program before so i think all people will receive this.
I will post more pics from him as soon as i will receive them.
:good:
Due to the nature of test version, unexpected errors can occur.
so i think it might be a test release....
Screenshot seems very..... off
EDIT: Okay, I know why the screenshots look so shady. Googled the build number only to find out that they're from the Nougat Beta, and not an official release.
Check this out: http://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_gal...ugat_beta_is_now_live_in_korea-news-21542.php
Look at the first screenshot.
Either you're an attention seeker, or your friend is trolling you.
Do the updates for android come for each country at different time? Like do some countriey get it faster than other?

Welcome to the world of Android updates.
The company releases the update in waves to unlocked phones.
If your devices is carrier specific it goes through your carrier first and then it becomes available for your device.
Well i jiat got it from repair. And before it was carrier specific but now they installed some poland firmware on it so i think its not carrier specifix anymore. Does that mean faster update?
Fake or?
I Am on btu CSC
Pff cant wait on Android nougat

Probably yes. It always depends on the carrier.
US carriers for example take way to long to update their devices.
That is Nougat BETA firmware. You or your friend are telling porkies so the fat lady can sing
And that text is not Chinese but Korean. So, Nougat is here and Hong Kong is now in Korea.
This dude again? Don't feed It, please...
I'm in Hong Kong but haven't got the update yet
So it's not his first rodeo

Nope, it's not.
First his friend was from Hong Kong but The screenshot were from a korean device (korean characters). After It, he edited the OP and his friend magically moved to Korea. And now.....
No Nougat for my SM-G935FD unlocked international version with dual sim here in Dubai
this morning received nougat !!
For those who started getting the Nougat Update please also clarify if you were participating in the Beta Program or not.
I think I am downloading it now. The screenshot above was the same as the update I am downloading. I was not on the beta program and I am from the UK. Will update further once installed. Mine is unlocked international version.
Sammobile has confirmed Nougat launch in countries which had been part of the Beta program
Source: https://www.sammobile.com/2017/01/17/nougat-rollout-begins-galaxy-s7-galaxy-s7-edge-china-uk/
I did not participate to the beta program.
Currently I'm Slovakia after reading this thread I manually checked for updates and it is currently downloading a big update. (1291.19MB)
Hi Folks
Ive just picked up a pre-owned U Ultra, which is BNIB...
I bought it as Unlocked..
What is the latest Unlocked UK firmware and Google security patch?.
Thanks all
Allow me to answer, even though mine is a European unlocked single sim U Ultra...
Build #: 1.64.401.3
Security patch: 1st July 2017
Thank You friend.. Much appreciated for that, thats exactly what Ive got.. so thanks..
The reason I asked was when I look around the web and XDA all of the EU/UK updates state its still on 1.62.401.1.. I just wanted to check that someone hadnt installed a non-EU/UK rom.
So 1.64,, mustve been just the July security patch..
I know since the M8 / 9, HTC have done most of their updates over Google Play.. but July seems quite an old security patch for a 6 month old flagship device.
Thanks
You're welcome! I had the exact same question when I bought mine.
HTC is rather punctual regarding their updates. The only reason that can explain the security patch delay is the forthcoming oreo update. Fingers crossed...
Hello all,
I purchased Galaxy S8 G950FD 5 months ago from the UAE. Since that time I have not received any update even security update.
I asked Samsung and they said that this version will not receive any update in the Netherlands.
Do you know any way to get the wifi update?
On the other hand, I tried to flash the new software rom by Odin, but I am facing a problem with Odin, it stops at SET PARTITION and does not go on.
Ant solution?

Same issue am currently facing with my S8 SM-G950F. Not a single update(SP) or Oreo since december i bought the phone Brand new from UK and am currently using the Device here in Nigeria. Th last Security Patch update was December 1. Am worried
I never recieved an update to oreo o.t.a having an unlocked s7 edge. I spoke to vodafone who is my network provider who was first to roll out the update and told me the update has been pulled due to there being so many issues with the update. Bit annoyed now as some people seem to have updated with no problems at all and it looks like some of us may not see oreo at all on our devices.

This really looks ridiculous for me, to be honest. My dad has A5 2017 and he received Oreo last week. It's really a shame that flagship S7/S7 edge is facing this poor software update policy. I also saw that Note 8 users still haven't received Oreo. On Samsung Turkey webiste Oreo is listed in testing phase and date of release is set for May 18. I wouldn't be surprised if they delay it again.
They test Oreo on cheaper devices to get less complains. And less financial risk if the update goes wrong.
Also, usually the people that buy flagship devices usually "upgrade" selling those to second hand market. That's why the manufacturers don't update those devices so quickly - to push the "high rollers" to buy the new phones that have the newest bells and whistles.
Yes its been pulled back from the server for now. Can't say how much more delay is there for the worldwide rollout, but chances are near the end of may it will start rolling out again alongwith may security patch globally.

I myself received the android 8.0 update (sm gt935f - brazil) and honestly i regreted that i did the update.

Thats so weird.Ive updated to oreo through ota almost 2 weeks ago and I had zero problems so far.The phone is smoother faster and I really enjoy the samsung experience ui.Battery life seems to be the same aa nougat though
Could i asked where you are based? Also what network carrier are you on?
on many video, s7 oreo make s7 fly like a unicorn, maybe they purposely delay so u might in the end fall into the trap of buying new phone? LOL

You said that you receveid that, but the G935FXXU2ERD5 is the Oreo from UK: https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/galaxy-s7-edge/SM-G935F/BTU/download/G935FXXU2ERD5/217550/
You probably had an earlier UK ROM installed to had receveid this new G935FXXU2ERD5.
I thought you were the first to receveid the unbranded Oreo ROM for S7 here in Brazil .

Maybe thats why im having those connections drops/lag? Or they are not related?
Thats what i though really odd. Im from BR, my mobile is G935FXXU2ERD5, and when i enter sammobile, there is NO RELEASE of android 8.0 for Brazil. So i guess i received this UK???

Yes, you received the ROM from UK.
It is expected that you have no problem, except the VOLTE that is specified region (you have to have a CSC from the region where the phone will be used).
There is no CSC from Brazil on 8.x yet and I do not know if previous CSC are compatible.

man are you using android 8.0 ? if so, which version
Hello guys,
I bought my Galaxy S8 last year from BestBuy New York, and I need your help to figure out my issues:
- Is there a different between SM-G950U and SM-G950U1? My phone is SM-G950U1.
- I currently live in UK and till now I haven't received the last software update -Android Pie- that I'm supposed to get in late April! and have't received any security patches updates either!!
- Bixby voice is not working at all, it stopped working 4 months ago and I don't know why! I talked to Samsung US and Samsung UK and they have no clue, we tried many different way to fix it but we had no luck. I factory reset my device twice without any success either.
So please you're my last hope here to solve my issues. I'm ready to answer any questions that you might have in mind regarding my phone.
Thanks,
Yusuf.

There's almost no chance you're going to find out why you're not getting updates. If your phone isn't updating automatically you can either download the entire latest firmware and flash it with Odin or go to firmware.science and download the individual OTA files then flash them in recovery manually one by one.

More than likely you don't have that original carrier sim in it. My Verizon phone won't get updated on my daughter's TracFone sim. But when i pop in the Verizon sim it updates

I know that if I come back to U.S and insert any SIM from any major mobile company it'll be updated immediately, however, when I was in Saudi Arabia - my home country - lat year, it updated to Oreo back then, so why I got the update while I'm in Saudi and not in UK?
