Is N950USQS2BQL5 newest version? - Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers

Hey guys,
I have a Verizon Note 8. I am on Oreo. I updated it myself before the release. It was updated near December. Is that still the newest version possible of Oreo? Thank you! I just want to make sure I have the latest version because my phone is very buggy. I want it smoother.
THANKS!

No, newest official Oreo is 4CRD7

When I go to updates it doesn't find any. I guess this means I gotta manually update it? Or flash it?

Yes, you can check for latest version through Sammobile and download/flash from there or through SamFirm.

Updates roll out in pieces. Only certain parts of the world will get them first, then the next, and so on.
We only just got the official update here in the UK, other parts of Europe have had it for a couple of weeks.
It will eventually be available to you sometime!

In the same boat, havent taken part in Beta program and I am stuck on 182 still.
Btw , 182 was a forced updated by downloading it from the Warehouse firmware thread here , i was stuck on B166 otherwise.
My phone is not even tied to any carier. Arrgh!!!

I got it via the Update app, but I was on beta.
It's the full release I have now though, no beta versions.

Seems to be only minor visible changes. No new options I can see.
One thing that did change was that I can use EE's WiFi calling, which wasn't available before on the beta. This was activated automatically by EE via a text.
Camera, WiFi, network all seem same.
Will have to wait maybe a couple of days to see how the battery life is.

How did you get it? I've been accepted on the beta for a month now with no update and the full file from Firmware Finder fails at 35%?

Do you think it would work if we flashed the android nouget version B360 over the B182 version of mashmallow we currently have ??
Yes what happens if a non Beta on 182 tries to install the latest Android N ROM?

It just doesn't work, I downloaded the B182 ROM last night and installed it, no problems.
On Firmware Finder there are a couple of ROMS viz. B360, B361 and another B361, I've tried to download all 3 and flash them (using dload method) and have had NO success whatsoever with any of them.
I am now reverting to checking the update page in settings every hour or so!
BTW I've tried the dialler method too and that doesn't work neither
What's the huawei updater way?
Why is this phone such a piece of crap, differing version per region for what is the same software.
Why do OEMs insist on making such an industry out of something this straight forward

Beta after Android Pie Released?

What will happen after android pie is released, can i transfer into it and remove myself from the beta or will i have to reset my phone?
Are you on the official Beta, or are you using the leaked builds?

Then you'll receive an OTA update to the official Pie release.
So if I am on a leaked built, then I have to reset my phone and get the update?

There's about a 99% chance you will have to ODIN back to an official build of Oreo to take the office Pie OTA. The only way around that is if the leak you're on just happens to wind up being the official release build, which is HIGHLY unlikely. Especially since they are already testing CSA1
I am on ZRLL (Note9 U1)
Is there any update for my note at this time.
Thank you for your help

There are three ways you can check this yourself:
One: Go to Settings and check for a software update
Two: go to firmware.science and check for an update there
Three: go to the main Pie beta thread in the News and Guides section and read through it. We are always discussing the most recent build.
Thank you !
Is there any way to get official beta still?

T-mobile Note 9 - Anyone got Pie yet?

Looking to see if anyone on T-mobile has Android Pie 9.0 yet, the official download. That, or does anyone know when it'll come?

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).
https://support.t-mobile.com/docs/DOC-36189
Since the Pie update isn't even on T-Mo's radar yet,I'm guessing we're looking at an equally long wait:

I have the U1 device and upgraded to Pie using the same.method that is posted on the how to upgrade to Pie thread. I'm using T-Mobile for my service and everything works fine. If you do not want to ant to wait for the OTA then just follow the guide.

Does it lock you into that firmware branch like the Note 8 was with the leaked Oreo builds?

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.

If you registered for the beta, then yes. If you just sodeloaded and never registered, then likely not. You'll have to wait for someone to post the OTA file.
Nothing for me yet. Do I need to deregister from the beta program in order to receive the OTA?

Well, if you want to waste a step and time, ODIN to ARL1. Or you could just ODIN straight to CSB3.
Downloading now. Finally. Kind of PO'd that it doesn't even have March security patches.

What country and carrier are you on? I don't see an update.
Mine came in this morning, US (SD) Unlocked on T-Mobile.
Just arrived on UK unlocked
Now if someone can figure out root on US snappy variants for this.....
Installed seems smooth and hope battery life stays the same

Are you on U firmware or U1? I'm on U1 with T-Mobile and don't show an update. I'm guessing that I'll need to flash back to the stock T-Mobile firmware.
Edit: reflashed back to stock T-Mobile firmware and the update is still not showing up.

I tried patched and unpatched and several builds of odin. It just wouldn't move past the SetupConnection step. I finally got it to complete after changing absolutely nothing after the 15th try. Still no update available.
