Can I do anything to get it to see the update? It's running marshmallow and tells me it is up to date. My 710 has the update. This 713 I received only 5 hours ago.
The only update for the t713 is a UK ROM that you have to find and then use ODIN you put it on your device. ROM is on Updato along with a pretty good set of instructions. I got it done on the first try and I am digging the update.

Is there not going to be an Ota update for the 713? I definitely want nougat but prefer the lowest maintenance way of getting it.

I bought an SM-T713 yesterday and the Nougat update was immediate. So presumably you won't have to wait too long...

UK version? I'm running UK BTU on my USA T713 and it's working great.

Yes, I bought it in the UK where I live.
Strange that the t713 has had the nougat update in the UK whilst the t813 hasn't. Or do they differ slightly in hardware?

I believe there are some differences in WiFi bands used in the US vs UK. Not that it won't work, just may not find all the bands.

Under Settings / WiFi go to Advanced and you can set the Region as US. Then you will have 5G available.

Back in the older Samsung phones and tablets, you could odin the "stock" Samsung firmware over the carrier firmware. I did this with my S7, S6, and Note 6. Has anyone tried this with the Note 8 yet? I am going to attempt tonight when I get home, just wanted feedback from anyone who has tried. In my personal experience, it was the best way to rid of bloatware.
I was on EVR EE firmware and changed it to XEU firmware with no problems
@pnr2020 is the XEU firmware the no-carrier version?

So I bought an N960U and I absolutely love it but it's never gotten an update since I bought it in September so I'm curious as to why it hasn't, what firmware I am, what can I update to and will I lose Samsung pay at all?
I've attached some photos of the software version and such.

Your device is running a version of firmware that was never official for Sprint. That's why you're not getting any updates. Grab SamFirm and download the latest real build. It will be ARJ9 right now.

Nope. Probably within the next month I hope.
In the US, officially not yet. I think Verizon was the first one to update the Note 8 to Android 8... I'm not sure how quickly T-MOBILE updated their phones

Just for reference,the Note 8 on T-Mobile didn't get a stable build until May '18 (April '18 version got pulled,buggy).

Since the Pie update isn't even on T-Mo's radar yet,I'm guessing we're looking at an equally long wait:

Nope. No bootloader update yet for the note 9 so you are safe to downgrade back to Oreo or even over to u1 firmware if you'd like.

Hi all,
I bought an unlocked note 9 from eBay which arrived today. I got it set up and went to begin installing a different firmware to be able to get the one UI update - only to find out it's a N960U1! I'm in the UK so was expecting/hoping for a N960F.
It's all working, calls work, I've pulled over 3GB of data today all nice and fast, texts working etc. If I was the 'average user' I wouldn't know that it's not a UK one...
My question is, am I likely to hit any road blocks? As long as the radios all work I can't imagine there being any and the play store has all the apps I use available. I'm just wondering if I'm at any advantage/disadvantage?
Thanks

I'm on the same boat (I mean, a similar situation because I'm not in the UK I'm in El Salvador). When I received my phone I started looking for the new UI, but I noticed that I had a very old android build version (I was in September security patch, I received my phone February 11) I started reading about and found out that N960U is the branded version of the note in the US. I wanted to update by Odin to one UI but I was afraid to get my phone carrier locked so after reading a lot more, I found that you can update using the right firmware for the phone (N960U) you don't lose carrier unlock and in my case after installing updates, I don't even have any bloatware.
Now, after this context history, I can tell you that the only thing that will affects is any "radio band enhance" or "carrier feature" and that's because you will not be able to install any UK carrier software to that version because N960U and N960F are different hardware, not just software.
Maybe there is another road block that is about updates, I'm on 9.0 but with January security patch, I have not received any new update. To be hones I'm not sure if there is a new one, so I need to wait to confirm that OTA updates are working for me, if not I will take the time to update by ODIN again haha so that's not something that will drive me crazy, and also related to this I think that N960U android versions are coming faster than I thought, some of my friends with N9600 are still stuck on 8.1
If you want to upgrade go to the following thread, there you will have enough information to update.

Awesome, nice one dude
I used Odin on my previous S8+ to be able to install the one UI beta and that worked fine. Though it did come with a couple of apps that were a part of that carriers firmware (three UK)
I'm aware that the F uses an exynos processor whereas the U is Snapdragon and have seen a couple of guides already. Though they use AT&T firmware and, from what I've seen, have bloatware that would literally be useless to me.
I'll have a look at the guide you linked.
I'd like to have one UI again, but can happily live with the Samsung experience UI if I had to.

Option1:
You can flash the Pie beta since you're running U1, there isn't an official release of Pie as yet.
Option2:
You can switch your device to the U firmware and flash the latest OTA however you would have to manually update each time because you won't be getting an update automatically.

How come the U firmware wouldn't get OTAs?
My S8+ was flashed to get the beta and that received OTA updates.
If I'm to go onto one UI I'd want it to get OTA updates still. If that means waiting for an official release then so be it
On a different note, I installed an app to get the FM radio working today. Can't do that with the UK exynos version ?

Because on the U most OTA comes from the carrier (ATT & VZW) while the rest comes from Samsung.
U1 all updates come from Samsung but U1 updates are months behind.
Advantage of running U firmware is you always get to be on the latest OTA as one is available.

So correct me if I'm wrong but to simplify what you're saying:
The U gets the latest updates sooner but comes with carrier bloat
The U1 gets non bloated updates but Samsung doesn't release then until months later?
I'll leave it and wait if that's the case. I'd be more bothered about having bloat than One UI

Well yes the U comes with bloatware but the amount varies according to carrier, but since you're in the UK. Your CSC will read as XAA/XAA so therefore I doubt you would have any bloatware.
I know this because I myself had own a US device while using in the UK.

Right so even if you switch to U firmware it would still remain XAA/XAA because that would be the default CSC code for Unbranded for American model. F model is normally XEU or BTU

When I did the S8+ I had to go through a pretty big list to find the BTU firmware so assumed I'd have to do the same for the N9
I might give it a go if I get a chance this week
Seeing as you have the US variant of the Note 9. You may have issues receieving connecting to certain networks outside the US. As most US Networks use a different LTE band from the EU/UK
As the title suggests, I haven't been able to find anything just tmoble
From what i understood while helping a few snapdragon users, AT&T firmware handling is done through them and not Samsung. Considering how snapdragon is a month or two slower on releases to Exynos, with AT&T you seem to get another layer of delay.
Nevertheless, you can always flash the Unlocked (SM-N960U1 XAA) firmware to it, but i would assume you'd lose a few AT&T features specific to their CSC.
Have been looking for any US based version of the update and still nothing yet. Hope we see something soon. I will be honest I want wireless DeX.
Weirdly, AT&T got 2.5 yesterday, before the unlocked one.

No SM-N9600 has got One UI 2.5 yet. The latest one is TGY (Hong Kong) ETJ5, but that's still One UI 2.1. We still have to wait for a FXXX firmware.
I'm on Spectrum and this is the latest in the month I've gone without an update. Im guessing there was a bug in first build, maybe thats why the release of the 2nd and the delay?
