It has a good year for Samsung since the launch of S8 and I owned that device for a good three months with consistent monthly updates regarding security and but fixes. Although we have received a major update for Note 8 that contains August patch but we are one week before October and there seems to be a delay for September update. Or are they going for Oreo with October updates as a "double O" package?
I haven't seen boo about the Note 8 getting Oreo other than it's in the works. I don't think we'll see it until after the new Pixel launches, and probably well after.
Since my first update was labeled "T-Mobile," it's likely the carriers are holding up the updates, as usual. Hopefully, Project Treble will be fully baked into Oreo so security updates won't be an issue anymore.
I got a security update 2 days ago on my TMO version, and a TMO update firmware a few days before that.
my Sprint Note8 still on March patch. Why ???
I'm in the same situation, but I have the international version.
Haven't received a security update since April. Anyone have a newer version? I'm on Spectrum wireless here in USA

Why refuse to update the OS? There are very few cons.

There are 100% cons, I can list about 17,000 cons right now.
Please feel free and go ahead
Think most of the teething problems are now ironed out

N960n - SK telecom
I might root it because of the delays in updates, even thought its a korean version it gets the updates a month or two after global versions, plus im having some network connectivity problems with my operator because it has different frequency band with SK telecom frequency band-i live in Europe, i tried to change but it seems impossible without root.
U1 Sprint updated today to May security update.
Just got may today. Sprint

Nahhh. No cons. Not one.
I like many received the 9.1 update back in July with July security updates. Since then I have received 2 more updates in August, 1 for 3gb and one today for 200mb. Both telling me update for July security updates. Am I missing anything because I would have thought the August one would have come out by now and was wondering why I have had 2 updates telling me it for July. Does anyone know why I keep getting these July updates?
I am still with the july security update too. Very strange.
9.1.0.127 is the the actual number.
Security update is available in U.S. this morning. No OneUI update.

I know thats really weird. The Exynos version got one ui 2.1 with june update huh. Even the s9plus getting 2.1 updates starting today. Poor Snapdragon
I am surprised too why snap variant didn't get oneui 2.1
I'm not even going to do this security update if in another week it will be 2.1 and another update just send the 2.1 and be done with it smh!
