Hey all,
Sprint variant. Just had an update pushed to the phone. Now ends in QK3... Any idea if this might address network performance issues? I was having initial connection delays when loading web/internet apps... Have been using a dns changer as a workaround that uses a local VPN to use openDNS as it may have been a DNS issue that was borked in the previous patch. Thanks!
I saw the update too, it showed up on mine around 9am EST. I've yet to do it, though, since I don't know what's included.

Wow that's odd.... Yeah just got it this morning I guess... Was hoping it'd solve my network starting "lag" that I need to refresh things a few times to actually get anywhere.

Yeah, I time out or get the spinning loading circle for ages... Sometimes refreshing fixes it.. That's really my biggest issue right now. Sounds like something screwed up with the modem in the update? I keep searching for updates lol

Hi all. Have any of you try flashing the N950U1 2BQK1 firmware on Sprint Note 8 and get VoLTE or WiFi calling? Back in August Sprint start pushing the VoLTE and Wi-Fi calling update on the Galaxy S8, not sure if Sprint did change their CSC so you can used the U1 firmware and get Full VoLTE and Wi-Fi calling like T-MOBILE or Verizon. I have an AT&T Note 8 and Verizon Note on Verizon service running on the new updated N950U1 2BQK1 firmware. I currently don't have Sprint service now but planning to get 1 line's

Just want to find before I get a line, I prefer Samsung only firmware instead of carrier bloatware firmware. I like spam feature on stock Samsung unlock firmware, plus better battery life and performance.

I am on the BQK1 firmware on Sprint.
WiFi calling is enabled automatically
VoIP is working with manual settings through shortcut master lite...I've posted the settings in various locations...
BlueFox beat me to the punch. I use N950U1 2BQK1 firmware*on my note as well.
It was quite a shock but about an hour after signing up for Pie beta I'm now getting it bundled with the November update. It's a 1782. 74 MB download. The way I actually got it was by uninstalling the Samsung+ app and reinstalling the latest version off Apkmirror. Once I did that the beta registration became available.
Do let us know what works and what doesn't

To get the Beta:
Uninstall Samsung +
Install Samsung + Beta from APK Mirror
Open, sign in, enroll
Go to settings & check for update.
The process was instant for me.
Everything works fine so far except Close All in Recents Tab. Loving the new Night Theme.

The build I got is for my unlocked S9. I read on Samsung Support forums that Sprint & Verizon models that are carrier locked wouldn't receive the beta. Try to sign up & see what happens. Good luck, I know how it feels to want to get something for your phone & then to be told that you're out of luck.
Same here. On TMobile US. I just installed the Samsung+ app from the play store and registered for the beta. I did an update check about 15 mins later and there it was.
About 1875 meg download too.

Is it possible to get pie beta for exynos version
I would guess that the update will depend on where you live and your carrier. I'm sure they won't send it out to everyone so there is probably a limit for each country and carrier. Some may get it fast, some down the road, and some not at all.
I didn't download the Samsung+ beta app. I downloaded the standard Samsung+ app from Google play store and registered within that.
I've registered for betas with them before and not sure if that plays a part in it also. Maybe some some sort of pre-approval going on somewhere also.

I couldn't get the registration to show from the Play version and had to install the other one. Maybe does have something to do with your previous registrations.

Dunno really. I like the look etc. I expected better battery life but doesnt seem to work for me I would say I'm a heavy user.
My main problems now is having problems with sound and bluetooth sound. My bluetooth sound has all of a sudden become strange if I'm listening to a song in my van or bluetooth speaker the sound skips like as if a CD jumping.
And notifications dont seem to come through properly. Sometimes I get texts but dont know about them as the notification disappears

Man, I have non of these issues you've mentioned. Mine has been flawless. The only weird thing that happens sometimes is somethings reset on their own. Like some apps just disapeare from my home screen/folders for no reason. Some settings clear themselves out without me doing anything. Sometimes, I think Samsung is remotely is messing with my phone.

That's a chipset power management issue. The only fix I've found us turning off wifi or bluetooth for a second and then turn it back on.
The reason its happening is because of the wifi, data, and bluetooth chips being all in one when it comes to power management. Great for form factor, dumb for data/power handling.??
It happens on Oreo as well but pie handles it WAY WAY WORSE.
But seriously K-alz kinda good to have this, I get tired of the high and mighty peeps on XDA jumping on others for crap. We were all new to this once. At&t ota is out, I'm wondering if it will fix the bluetooth issue. Having a hard time pulling away from Oreo. Plus ota just hit for my Note FE, I think S8 ota is coming too plus Javix working on new rom for Note 8 im just trying to keep track of what im flashing where[emoji12]

Yup. That's another thing that is getting old. Giving others crap for asking a simple question. Arguing over dumb stuff. Getting off topic on a thread with something very important, root. All of that has brought the idea of having a thread like this. I want everyone to participate and talk about whatever the hell they want. Just make it a chat room.

Sounds like a good idea, but I stupidly vape, so that $20 goes to juice and coils. And dang, those are some nice bikes you got there, bro.
So after taking the OTA on my Note FE to Pie CSC4 I have found that if I use Package disabler you cannot update apps in playstore. So my At&t Note 9 is going through the OTA to CSC1 now. If I am unable to use package disabler on the new Pie this is a deal breaker for me. I was able to use it on CSB3. I will let you guys know how it goes

The Note 10 got released and it has some new features like the new Dex which only needs your charging cable. Samsung says it won't work for S10's Also some camera improvements which the sensors are the same except for the 4th depth in the back as well a few other things which all seem to be just software enhancements.
With or without root, what can port over. Would really like the improved Dex because I don't want to have to get a Dex pad or cable etc. I don't see why Samsung is saying the new Dex won't work with S10's since that and the Note 10 have the same hardware pretty much.
I would really like the live focus video too

I've extracted your zip and upgraded gxfonts, rebooted my phone, but gxfonts refuses to build a custom font using the TTF file. Tapping the build button does nothing ?

mine shows a bar at the bottom on every app
Hi, thanks for the assistance, though I've just managed to get it installed. It looks like the file name gx fonts was trying to save was too long, and didn't work until I shortened the name.
I'm not on 10 UI2 I'm still using 9 UI1, as I want to keep fullscreen in everything. If Samsung could sort that out I'd update. But I'm staying put at the mo.
hmmmm. so i seems im not the only one having this fullscreen issue then?
so you manage to install he font? nice

bdw I am no sure if this would help. I am on Android 10... and full screen working after factory reset
So you can turn on full screen and leave it on 24/7 without seeing the notification bar, nor the navigation keys at the bottom (using gestures of course). And the entire screen is used by the app you're using? No bars, spaces, blank areas?
I've heard different from other users, but it would be great if fullscreen immersive works like I have it now ?
