Oreo Beta - Sprint Samsung Galaxy S8+ Guides, News, & Discussi

Anyone else install the beta? Been running smooth so far!

how do you install?

Oreo beta is now closed, it was only open for 10,000 participates

Was good. Then became great after I factory reset. Noticed a lot of improvements over nougat.

Mostly smooth for a beta. I'm enjoying the improvements for sure. Picture in picture in a nice new feature and I've enjoyed being able add gifs in my text messages.

when will be open again?

I noticed that slow motion in the camera does not work right on the 1at or 2nd beta

Nope just was in system updates this morning. Very happy for those that own one since this is considered a "dead" device. I started doubting the recent purchase of it for my wife but now that she has it, the battery life will be greater with the extended battery and she'll have the newest software. I may troll around here just to keep the forum moving.
nothing new here. I thought GB was only getting pushed for DroidX this week

What would happen if the system updated by itself while my device was rooted? What would happen if it updated while many system apps were frozen by Titanium?

Don't quote me on this but I don't think that it will automatically install by itself. I manually installed it on my wife's phone. Not sure about the system apps.
Sandman, could you try and locate the update file on your device and upload it for the impatient users like me ... ?

It's actually on my wife's phone and sadly I am at work. I will try and do it when I get home. Fingers crossed.
Ah cheers for that But heres the big question again ... was your wife's Pro rooted when she got it? I am always unsure with that ... last time for the update, I didnt unroot and left some apps frozen and it was absolutely fine. This time I am not so sure though ... :/

Does anyone have any screenshots? Didn't see anything listen for what was changed in Gingerbread....I just ordered a Pro after having the original Droid, and Incredible, Fascinate and also iPhone. May give my girlfriend the Pro since her Ally sucks slow-no memory.

Yes, I wanted to checkout the new phone security encryption, to see if it's working. As this seems to be the major new feature ICS is bringing to the table.

Just thought I'd say that the fingerprint scanner was working on my Atrix since the day I bought it - on stock AT&T GB 4.5.91.

Mine has worked fine, though the latrst update seems to make it a bit better (less fighting with it)

370,
Nothing much, just like each update, performance gets better, then it starts to degrade after a while.
Didn't notice any thing special, thats why I was looking for a change log..
Sent from my PLK-L01 using Tapatalk
You can get the change log on another thread. I don't remember the name but it's here.
Is it the official thing tho? Since there are still no OTAs.
Secondly, what about WhatsApp notification issue.?

Looks I'll be waiting then. Hopefully somebody comes up with a solution for this new bootloader. That or a way to port the newer firmware without upgrading the bootloader.
