Damn shame I can't get it to download.

Been on Oreo for a long while. Check it out, https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s8+/how-to/guide-oreo-beta-usa-snapdragon-s8-t3700907
PLEASE read, search. Likely your question and how to get started has already been answered, happy flashing!

Not going to try. I hear it works but it's a t mobile version. I'm going to wait for official Verizon OTA as is need to reload the nougat load to get the OTA later. Besides, that wipes the phone since it isn't an upgrade.

Running oreo and work liked a charm! just following the directions.

Did you have to do a full reset or run it like update?

Downloaded the ZIP. Placed on my sd card. Ran recovery. Installed zip. Took under ten mins. Rebooted itself. Once rebooted it was on Oreo with no reset, everything was the same. Super easy.

THxs! So Odin back to BQL1 but do not flash the csc (check box) in odin.. and flash zip in recovery BQL1 to CRA9.

Took the gamble... on the boot up from odin back to BQL1 it corrupted my device storage.

Well crap, just got looking at my phone, looks like i had pulled the tmobile firmware file. Now pulling the full bql1 firmware for verizon from sammobile... 3.6 gb

Updated to ART Compiler

I updated it last night. When it was finished updating I noticed it was optimizing apps after it restarted. I got excited and thought "Lollipop" for a second but it appears they simply changed compilers ( JIT to ART ). This is still a welcome change as the ART compiler is known to be faster and more efficient for a lot of apps. A lot of apps did install again after the update but everything was seamless, no loss of data as far as I know. Also the Android Version is still 4.4.3.
4.4.3? Shouldn't it be 4.4.2?

I installed via odin from sammobile. Cf-autoroot works. Need to install superuser by chainfire separately. Works great.
Mine OTA update fails to install at 24%. I'm rooted with stock ROM and recovery. I even unrooted and tried it again, and the same thing happens. SamMobile doesn't have any firmware (of any version) for this tablet (SM-P600) for the USA??? Seriously?

They do. The region you're looking for is Cellular South (XAR)

Thank you! I couldn't remember what the region code was. I guess I could've just looked at the current firmware to figure it out, though... Doh!
And "Cellular South" is the USA region code (expecially for a WiFi tablet) because...? Haha

Im assuming you installed cellular south latest from sammobile. flash cf autoroot and let it do its thing. After reboot, goto playstore and download/install superuser chainfire. it asks you to disable knox,etc. Reboot and use rootchecker. I am stock rooted without custom recovery.

On what build are you ? If you on BQA6 you are on official Nougat firmware. You don't have to do anything. If you are on BQA4 you need to use Odin from this post : https://forum.xda-developers.com/att-s7-edge/how-to/firmware-pi2-s7-edge-sm-g935a-10-03-16-t3477246 and firmware from here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/att-s7-edge/how-to/firmware-s7-edge-sm-g935a-g935aucs4apk1-t3549458

I'm a relative noob to flashing rom's. Can someone tell me if I'm understanding this correctly?
Installing this update will *unroot* my phone? So after installing this update through odin, I will need to install twrp again while in download mode? And then, once that's installed, reroot my phone?

Odin tar for G930VVRU4BQA2?

Does any one of a tar file of the new update? When I check for updates it says it's update to date, but I'm running PI3 and I don't have an SD card to do the update.zip method..

There is a way to use an update.zip via adb, but I've never had to do it. Look in the Nougat beta thread. I recall someone mentioning how to do this early on in that thread. Maybe someone will chime in here.

I'm trying to use the PI3 to nougat zip you uploaded. Is that the OTA? I'm trying to sideload it but it says "can't read "update.zip."
That is the OTA. Did you rename it?

Yes, but I redownloaded it because I said it wouldn't read so I figured it was a bad download, but it's still not working.
I've never done the ADB method, so someone else will have to chime in.

Help with upgrading to Nougat

I don't have a Verizon SIM card. Does anyone have a update.zip or a tool so I can upgrade? When I check for updates it fails because I don't have a SIM card inside.
Tried taking the OTA but keep getting an Error 402.
I odin'd back to stock using the method on this site and even factory reset after as well.
Anyone know what the error is?
Or does anyone have an alternate way to update? I'm currently on PE1.
