I got an E3001 fingerprint match error when trying to update from the sdcard. I'll try again via ADB but I don't think that will matter. I forgot to grab the actual error before i rebooted
I'm confused? There are 5 beta updates correct? I'm on the 4th ZQL8. Are these for exynos?

No, these are not for exynos. This is for the s8 plus snapdragon g955u model. Yes, ZQL8 is the latest beta file updating from 2BQK5, but to whoever updated to 2BQL1 the only oreo beta file available is 2ZQKS. You can get all the updates from this website: samsung.firmware.science.

Do I need to be on oreo beta before flashing the official oreo firmware?

No, you don't need to be on oreo beta to flash the official build. Just make sure your current firmware is 2BQL1 running 7.0 nougat, in order to update.

To anyone who has flashed the official oreo firmware. How is battery life? Is there a noticeable increase in perfomance?

No problem, if you have any problems, questions or concerns, feel free to ask.
I'm currently running it on the s8 and it's been pretty darn good on almost everything, so far. They did add some features:
Additions include a new boot logo, Dolby Atmos audio integration, which improved the sound quality. It sounds way louder than before and it does have the latest security patch, January 1st, 2018.

I just got the prompt to join the beta program and when I try I get an unknown error try again later.
Any ideas?

Awesome I'm going to five it a shot. Thanks again.

The beta program for oreo? I don't think you're able to enroll in the beta program, since samsung confirmed their ending it on the 15th of January.

BTW.. I applied this one... "New Leaked Oreo Official Stable Build For S8+: G955USQS2BQL1-to-U2CRA1"
I wasn't sure what this was... "Download here: 2BQL1-to-2ZQKS"
Hope that helps...

I'm assuming that one needs to already be on the beta in order to sideload the leaked official build? How long until a full odin-flashable firmware comes out?

When I try to apply this in download mode I don't see the file appear on the list of files to choose from

You're not suppose to apply the update through download mode. These are not Odin files, these files have to be manually updated through your SD card. Be sure to be running stock 2BQL1, to apply the update. Download the file, put the file into your SD card, turn off your phone, once the phone is completely off, press the up volume key, power and bixby button all at the same time, this will take you to recovery and select apply update from sd card.

I had to restart the phone because the download wouldn't start, but it did following the restart
it asked to update, took like 5 mins to update, was on 65% for a min or 2 and I was getting worried
but it worked out
warning, If you brick or phone blows up I am not liable, do at your own risk
I think this B521 is 7.0 Beta, final Nougat is B560.
doesnt work for me on L29C185. doesnt list anything nor does updater app detect any new update.
I have c185 and it shows that i can download B560, but when I try to update, it stops at +/- 40%. My current system is B320. Do i have to get back on B190 to update?
My phone (used in the USA) is L29C185B180, and it shows a BUNCH of updates. Full & OTA.
I've downloaded and unpacked...but it's hard to drop the hammer and install. All of Huawei's
software says I have the latest official, so not sure if I will install or just wait a month for Huawei
to "officially" release it on their software updater.

I first installed NXT-L09C432B560 v74088 with Firmware finder for windows, then I installed the OTA update dated 03.01.2017 and filesize 431mb from Firmware finder from the phone. If you are going to install from phone, i would install the largest OTA dated 03.01.2017, then the smaller OTA with the same date after that. I tried installing one of the OTA's dated 20.01.2017 and ended up with test-keys build, had to downgrade to be able to flash the proper one.
Dear developers, My set was on NXT-L29C636B211 and I have successfully download the latest B521 firmware ,unpack and dbload created just need some confirmation before flash the firmware.
I would to know it's an official firmware ,warranty status and will it get any OTA in the future ?

What build were you on. Just double checking...since I'm at 180, can I jump all the way to the 560 build?
One other question, is this one dumping everything and setting it back to stock? No biggie...got everything
backed up...just don't have enough time to set it all back up this evening.
I Didn't download the OTA, I downloaded the full 2.2gb firmware from that app
the phone is now waaaaaaaaay better, and battery is even better

I have bootloader unlocked and root. Do I need to relock bootloader in order to use this method?
I was on L29C636B221 with rooted and TWRP. I used the Firmware Finder app to download L29C636B521 and update it to Nougat. It updated fine. I wanted to do a factory reset so I did. Half way through, reset was failed, but the phone was able to boot in. Now, it has no Gboard (sideloaded it fine) and the Build Number is NRD90M test-keys. Everything else work fine.
Any suggestion? should I dload it back to L29C636B221?
I can't get it to work.Here is a video of what I did start to finish.
https://youtu.be/T1A825NI2wQ
I tried the 2 560 and the 520 ones using the firmware finder and proxy add-on. The update doesn't start downloading until you switch off the local host proxy setting. Once it is complete and it reboots to update it fails at 1% and I reboot back to my 320 firmware.
I have l29c185b320 firmware currently.

Looks like NEM-L51 got official Nougat

I keep checking Firmware Finder to find out when Nougat releases for NEM-L21 and found the following.

ye i whish nem-L21 was soon ready too... i thought that 5c was one of most popular phones around europe because of awesome price - quality.... good thing that b132 doesnt have too many bugs but still theres few: when i press square it doesnt always show apps it just shows clear icon and kinda laggs and goes to home and then i need press again to see apps there....
but how do i update, i am on firmware 130 version, when i extract it to the dload folder and try the update it says incompatible rom version from there i only can reboot - is it possible to force the upadate or update it via pc

Just checked firmware finder and yay, your right.
I'm on l51C432. Which B350 download do I go for?
The FULLOTA-MF(1.6gb) which has 3 zip files or the FULLOTA-MF-PV(2.0gb) which has 2 zip files???
What are the differences. I've started downloading the b350 fullota-mf-pv, simply because it's a bigger download. Can anyone let me know if I am downloading the right one asap. Thanks all :fingers-crossed:

I tried with the FULLOTA-MF-PV but it doesn't work :crying:... It start to update but said that it's an invalide package version... I will try with the FULLOTA-MF ...
i wouldnt start randomly flashing ota packages thru unofficial firmware finder.... wait till official OTA comes avaible to avoid any issues (usually flashing non official ota causes glitches)
I've always do that before without any issues...

Does not work with FULLOTA-MF neither... That's so bad
I've tried with "proxy method" in firmware finder and it works !!!
Update success
I installed the FullOTA-MF-PV and got nougat (EMUI 5.0)
I noticed perfomance improvements and better RAM management.
The only issue I found is that Nova Launcher keeps crashing when I try to set it up. Nova launcher was working fine when I was on Emui 4 but not Emui 5. When I open nova launcher it crashes after 1 minute and goes back to default launcher.
Cool. But which one did you use with proxy method? -mf or -mf-pv ???
i think the size is wrong at the FullOTA-MF-PV download.. or am i wrong ? i downloaded all 3 updates.zip but 2 of them are same size... FullOTA-MF & FullOTA-MF-PV are the same size... maybe thats the problem ?

According on Huawei Firmware Finder App Q&A section :
MF stands for Multi-File ROM, which by itself means that this package contains more than a single update file. This is the type of package used for EMUI 5.
PV stand for Point-Version ROM and is used to update the Android version. In our case, from 6.0 to 7.0.
Conclusion : you need the FULL-OTA-MF-PV update file. Or so I think. Installing this at the moment, I'll come back to you when I'm done and tell you what's up.
The FullOTA-MF-PV shows up as a 2.0 GB download in the list. Im currently downloading and its actually 1.3GB.
Is that normal?

I installed AQGL using part 2 of the root method including @jrkruse QG2_ADD_CSC_SYSTEMROOT zip. I followed up with a flash of the AQGL CP and CSC in ODIN. I just checked and the auto brightness is working. The phone seems to be working better than ever. I just finished setting up last night so not too much time with it.

@pimpmaneaton has streamlined the process. You just use the QGL system.img.ext4 (extracted from QGL AP file for less knowledgable users) and the VZW_AQGL_ADD_CSC_SYSTEMROOT_V5.zip in place of Part 2 of the SAMPWND thread or @jrkruse rom thread, these files can be located here.
Remember to thank the lovely folks whom provided these files/methods, they're making a great phone even better! :good:
EDIT
Just a heads up, had data issues during setup, so went to download mode and flashed QGL csc file as well and it got me up and running great!
So can I take the AQGL update now and still be able to root a few weeks later? I'm holding off for a bit until 80% battery issue is fully understood.

I would flash the QGL1 firmware first (in linked thread), for compatibility, and if you get modem crashes after you're up and running, you can flash the HLOS and Modem files for QGL. (also in linked thread)

Woke up to the update ready to install. Interesting that it says security update but the security is still at August 2017.
Nothing noticeable as of right now for me.

Won't it be OTA update?
You don't need to flash qpst rom , if you're on twrp just clean flash 3.5 , tried & tested , but as you will flash it from twrp it'll encrypt your twrp partition so your twrp won't work anymore unless you do a normal format from twrp by typing "yes" & it'll erase your internal so always take a backup !

Some users need a bit updater script editing , just remove the line which is written before the processing starts !

That's great..this was the thing i was missing..will flash this after a few days.. waiting for a version where one clean flash would be enough and no more tweaks needed just like other roms

Nope, I don't think so, They always first release it in china and after 1-2 months it is released in india, same happened with nougat they didn't promised about nougat it was on marshmallow but it was first released in china then india, Not even Lenovo told before that they are going to update to nougat.
Moreover, all SD 820 devices are getting oreo it's a powerhouse and this is also SD 820, Then it would be shame if they leave it without oreo like the only 820 device without oreo
---------- Post added at 02:47 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:44 PM ----------
And plz can you check if hdr+ or agps works
This is good official oreo, it's camera looks amazing, the colors, etc, Hope our devs get great help from this rom source in fixing all our beloved oreo roms bugs and making it super stable

Sorry HDR+ is not working
It would be useful for Indian users if someone can integrate essential GApps as defaults (Phone, Playstore, Message etc.) Otherwise this ROM is not that comfortable for Z2132 users.

Clear the cache on your Google play service, reboot your phone and try again. The changelog was wrong the first time so they might have taken it down for a second to change it.
Giving it a shot now

Wait your image says installation problem not download problem and I didn't know you were rooted so that is likely the problem (can't install the update from that menu because you're rooted) unless someone pulls the OTA file you're either gonna have to unroot or flash a previous build.

Which is why I'm requesting it be uploaded to the developer portal
https://android.googleapis.com/pack.../1d2233d7c911a415cc3661dddebf59d76a89ea26.zip
Pulled this from a debug log. Stopped and started the update download.
Lol I better go plug in
Have not charged it since midday yesterday.

Careful if trying to update this while rooted. I tried the uninstall magisk, then OTA (which failed), then for some reason did install to slot. Once I rebooted, my PIN lock no longer worked. I had to factory reset my phone. It downgraded me to O-MR2-RC009-RZR-181124.2009. For some reason, I am not seeing the Pie update now.
I'm sure once I flash the factory boot image, I will be able to update and start again. I'm at work right now on a locked down computer and have to wait until I get home to try this.
So, what specifically does this latest update do? I'm looking for an in depth explanation of what changed, not just what it tells you on the update screen. Thanks
Still not installing for me. This is why I'm asking for it to be uploaded on the developer portal
Okay, I had to reinstall the last Oreo uploaded to the developer portal via Fastboot then upgrade that way. Now to wait for someone to pull the boot image

Factory Images can't be flashed so you'll need the OTA (which @jonchance_84 kindly provided) if you have a working twrp.

You sure about that? In fastboot mode commands like fastboot flash will flash the images with a unlocked bootloader.
