Anyone in here updated to the Oreo update that leaked, able to connect to their gear devices?
I tried the update. But my gear watch won't connect via the gear app. I'm assuming because it's unfinished software.
Switched back to nougat for the time being.
Having the same problem on my Note 8 on that Oreo leak. Hopefully someone has an answer?
You're supposed to sideload the plug-in for he device

Its a stand alone file called update.zip you put on your SD Card and update to.

Where did you get the Oreo update.zip?
And how did you switch back to nougat? Through sammobile?

The Oreo builds are leaked and require you to be on specific builds of Android. I recommend that you do some research yourself and if you find yourself overwhelmed then you should hold off.

This was a while ago. I sideloaded the gear app and it fixed my connecting issue. But I eventually came back to nougat anyway for various bugs that I didn't want to deal with. I didn't use sammobile for anything. I used the links in another xda post. I believe it was the one about flashing carrier specific firmware. I used Odin to get back. Now everything has been as it was before I tried Oreo. It's been about a month, maybe longer since I've done all of this. I'm waiting g patiently for the official Oreo update. I hope that answers your question. If not, just ask.

Anyone already on 5.1.1 without root? try some common root methods. Pingpong, etc. To see if anything works.
Hey you never know if an older exploit makes its way back into newer releases. It's happened before.
Please post your results and what methods you've tried.

So, I wonder how long it will be before we have Flashfire files for OI2; rooted or otherwise? I'm not expecting current root methods to work, and am absolutely FINE waiting however long it takes for root. Meanwhile, I'm reading that 5.1.1 brings us an overall performance improvement, and just for that reason, I am soooooo excited we're FINALLY getting it!!!

What the purpose of this thread or at least my intention was to have people attempt current root methods on OI2. Also to obtain the tar for 5.1.1 since I have all of my OTA services disabled. I could enable them but if someone had the tar already that would be better.
Additionally, I'd like to work towards a root method with other devs and enthusiast's for 5.1.1. Not that this release will be any easier than OF3/4 But you never know.
Thanks.

I would settle for the OTA file to sideload with ADB just to get the update but the .tar would be fantastic. I read that the edge guys sideloaded the OTA and retained root from 5.0.2.

I'm not sure that's been confirmed successful yet. I've been actively keeping track of the ATT S6 Edge forums since I got the phone in April. Many users (including me) have yet to update from OE2 (5.0.2) because that's the last update where we were able to keep root. I know that there are threads here on the regular S6 forum where people upgraded from OE2 to OF3 and OF4 while retaining root, but I haven't seen that happen on the Edge yet. (SOMEONE PLEASE HELP US EDGE USERS!)
In regards to the OI2 upgrade for the Edge, I saw 1 post for someone that "said" they upgraded from OE2 (5.0.2) to OI2 (5.1.1) and kept root, but no one else has had any luck with that yet.
Has anyone got the OTA file for the standard S6 yet?
The 3 other carriers were eligible for the nougat beta, and only At&t was left out. Anyone else switch to the tmobile firmware to try and participate? Or any other carriers firmware?
I have another thread on this topic : http://forum.xda-developers.com/att-s7-edge/help/android-7-0-1-beta-t3496624
Someone on my thread said that they tried flashing the T-mobile firmware and they are no longer accepting people to beta test nougat so there is no option for us.
I managed to install the tmobile firmware, get registered, now it's just a waiting game. I can try and get the Ota from my system and upload it, sprint already has theirs extracted and vzw hasn't even rolled out yet.

So you have a ATT device with T-mobile software flashed waiting for beta update? I really wanted to try this out as well. let us know what's up.
Yes, I'm registered. Not sure if I'll get "selected" but I am successfully registered.

Who knows. I'd like to be an optimist here and say they already have the nougat working perfectly on the AT&T version there for no beta testing needed :fingers-crossed:
Verizon just stopped participation in the Beta. So no more Beta updates moving forward for Big Red.

I think it will be out very soon, Samsung have really been pushing latest updates and security patches for note 8 since January for all models both unlocked/unbranded and carrier versions and it would be a strange thing to release the S9 with Oreo without the Note 8 getting it either before or at the same time

Anyone on Bootloader 2 or 3, these fimwares will update it to 4. If you end up not liking 8.1 Oreo on the tablet and want to go back to your native country's stock 7.0 firmware, you might not be able to, so check before hand, or wait for custom firmware.

Once it's released I'm sure there will be links to the firmware here, and it will also get pushed to your phone through OTA.

Unless you're on REALLY old firmware, like a year old, you can't root it anyway.
And no one has a link, because it hasn't been released yet.
And there isn't Verizon-specific firmware. That ended with Oreo when Samsung introduced BYOD firmware to the Note 8 firmware. Now all carriers push the same exact firmware.
