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.
Now im having a lot of lag and drop in internet connection, both wifi and 4g connection. A lot of times my facebook, instagram and whatsapp are too slow. Youtube also lags a lot while trying to watch videos.
Reallt dont know what to do
And now it will be delayed again,shamesung what happen in the world,from april to mid april,then may to mid may,and now what? From may to forever waiting? Sad life
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

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.

it may fail, but chances are it will work if you already have a carrier version. Rarely, the carriers differ in layout.
Reason for no OTA is, currently only Vodafone and TMobile are releasing MM for A3, and as i've noticed, strictly Europe so far.

So what will you suggest me? Would you update it or not?
I am from slovenia and only release is for Si.Mobil i think.
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.

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?

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

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)
Anyone get official Oreo 8.0 for SM-G935U Unlocked variants? I mean it seems every other carrier is pushing their Oreo already, even the Exynos model ones got Oreo, was there no love for us with USA unlocked models?
I'm waiting for the official update too. Btw have you tried flashing the G935T Oreo firmware? I've tried the G935A firmware and scrolling and overall performance feels unrefined compared to nougat.

I contacted Samsung support and they said there were issues with it, so the developers are going to fix them all before Oreo is released to the SM 935U.

Finally a update . I was beginning to wonder since the S8+s [g955u1] already had 3 unlocked firmware's with Oreo and the S9+s [g965u1] having one. Now the next is to find out what Binary version the unlocked Oreo firmware's will have since Sprints stock Oreo Firmware [g935p] has a Binary 6.
I got one this evening! Still downloading...
I updated my unbranded SM-G935U yesterday, and it has permanently disabled my WiFi! Nothing fixes it, Samsung support refer me to a service center. Tired of Samsung problems tbh. Definately getting Pixel3 when it comes out! Just gotta chug along until then without WiFi -.-

I got the update two days ago. No issues at all.
Flashed the t mobile oreo firmware on july 4th when it came out and then flashed the g935u firmware as soon as it came out. Gotta say I love oreo on this device. it makes the phone so much faster and adds so many great features! ?
Does anyone think it will receive the android 9.0 update as well?

Yes. When I first factory reset it, I did it from inside Android. That did not resolve the WiFi issue. My next step was to reboot into recovery and factory reset the phone that way (format data/chache). Still did not work.
I re-installed Nougat through ODIN, and my WiFi works perfectly. I set my updates to manual this time, and will not update to Oreo. I only have to get by until October, then I can get my Pixel 3.
Thank you for your suggestion.
I had a problem after I installed the oreo. Maybe just a coincidence but after about 30 mins of installing the update, I got the grey lines on the screen. Saw some people had same problems even before the oreo. I tried going back to nougat and it is still there.
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.

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?

Maybe it hasn't been pushed to your device yet, there are plenty of people out there that haven't received the update yet.
If you don't have the patience to wait, then I suggest using Odin to update it manually.

You do understand that it can take several weeks to receive an update once released? Every company does a rolling update so it only hits so many devices at a time just in case there are reports of severe issues, they can pull it. You don't know which server your device for an update is sitting on with AT&T.
Patience is the key where updates are concerned, and it's better to sit back and see what the issues are over having to get the latest and greatest buggy software on your device instantly.
