Oreo update! - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers

https://www.xda-developers.com/samsung-galaxy-s7-edge-android-oreo-uk-unlocked/
Oreo is being pushed out in the UK, to unlocked phones (BTU, im pretty sure) the past day, is it possible for us to flash one of their firmwares on our phones? Or we have to wait for the update to roll out here?

The model that is being updated is the sm-g935f. It runs on a Exynos processor, but your sm-g935v runs on a snapdragon processor. Unfortunately, we have to wait.

My G935V got the update notification yesterday. You may want to try a force update to see if it will send you the oreo update.
NM it was just that 7.0 patch sorry if i got people excited, the google results were saying oreo.

Uggh. I miss rooting and unlocking bootloaders. No time to try this stuff anymore, and no idea if you can on the V Network.... Guess we wait.

S7 and s7 edge update has been halted because bootloops and restarts. Sammobile

[ INFO/FIRMWARE ] Firmware 23.0.1.A.3.12 + Root + Recovery

Finally!!
After using 2 days of reading and learning, I`ve got the latest firmware (23.0.1.A.3.12) from Taiwan rooted and with recovery working flawless.
And when "I" is beeing mentioned, ALL credits goes to: DooMLorD, [NUT], Phil3759, bin4ry, geohot and several others!
** DOWNLOAD: hxxps://mega.co.nz/#F!Lh422LgQ!qz_DQnBKzoXVTRTwx05Clw
** BEWARE: INSTALLATION SCRIPTS ARE NOT COMPLETE, YOU GOT TO READ THE README!
Sadly, the changelog for this firmware is missing all over internet, but there is definitly some APN / Carrier update and it contains some minor bugsfixes.
The device System UI also seems to be a bit smoother.

I think this update just to fix some issues of mobile signal of Taiwan's carriers, and some bloatware. I compared files' size in both of 167 and 3.12 firmware, seem nothing is changed.
noob questions
installing this, gonna delete wipe my cell ?
how do i root it ive already installed it through ota update.

Could you please put G920FXXU1AOCW and the release date in the thread title? "New software" leaves us no clue as to what you are taking about.
Tried to ota and nothing. Hope this is a fix for the few issues this phone is having.

Do you have the International version or the T-Mobile version? This software looks to be for the International version (920F)
Definately for the international SM-G920F.

Please report back what is listed in the fixes, date listed, what you notice. Thanks.
I think there is going to be a lot of updates rolling out. There are a lot of little things that need corrected.
I thought G920I was international model

I may be wrong but I am somewhat sure that it is a hardware issue. A new phone solved my issues and some others. See my other posts for more information.
Exactly which post ?

There's a thread on the T-Mo APB8 update in the T-Mo S7 section.
I finally got PD1 (April 2 security patch) for my G930FD CAM (baseband G930FXXU1APD1).
New Update available
"The update comes with firmware version FXXU1APE9 for both phones. "
Source: http://www.sammobile.com/2016/05/21...s7-edge-get-an-update-with-various-bug-fixes/
On BTU and haven't even had the May security patch yet!
FXXU1APE9 seems to be made for INS / XTO India / Brazil and not available on SmartSwitch / Sammobile yet, only OTA

Got an official security update after 1.5 years.

This morning, I turned it on and found that there was a security update. I thought Samsung had completely abandoned it and was going to disable automatic update check.
Perhaps I hoped too much. I was hoping that the version would go up from 5.0.2 to 5.1, but the version remained the same. The only changes I have found are
1. Security Patch Level is now 2016-11-01
2. System Panel does not show process names any more.
Well, at least they have not completely abandoned it yet.... or have they?
No update here, but if true, that's quite a positive surprise!

Not complaining too much as battery life is still amazing on stock.

I thought it came out Q1 2014? It's barely 3 years old! Samsung is known for amazing software updates right? :laugh: :laugh:

LMAO. World peace IS probably more likely than us receiving an official marshmallow update. :laugh: :laugh:

I love my pro but I am very skeptical about an update of any sort at this date

Oreo is still in beta version. You can get the update if you wish via the Nokia beta labs program. Just look it up, sign up and register your phone's IMEI and it should prompt you for and update within 12 hours.
Still beta
Yeah. It will take a day or two (I'm checking like every hour or two) for it to come to all other countries.

How can I receive it? I don't see it in Spain
Did anyone received Android 8?
As far as I can tell Android 8 has been released in at least Vietnam and India.
In Czech Republic is no Oreo. Still only beta.
Need I Oreo beta for this update or is 7.1.2. sufficient.
I hope that the kill apps bug is gone in Oreo final.
7.12 will be fine to get Oreo, it may just take a few more days maybe
Still no Android Oreo in Bulgaria :'(
Got update in Germany yesterday. Was in the beta before that.

That's why you received it earlier. People in 7.1.2 will need to wait more time

I don't tink being in the beta changes anything. I'm in the beta and still don't have it. It's just a phased rollout, we need to wait for it to spread.
