yes you can but it is possible that the kernel may not be compatible with android oreo and it may cause issues.

Yup! All the J3 (2017) Models got Wi-Fi certified with 8.0:victory: , too bad it ain't Android 8.1 unlike the J5 (2017) and J7 (2017).Probably released on end of July or August (September if your in Turkey).

tmobile removed the device from it's site out of nowhere. It is supposed to still be in development but neither tmobile or samsung could give me information on it.

I was talking about J3 2017 (Unlocked or unbranded ones), not the carrier specific (T-Mobile,AT&T and others) so does that means the carrier specific models won't get Android Oreo?(depends on the carrier)

Probably because T-Mobile released the J3 2018 (J3 Star) in there store? , so they don't have to bother updating it (that my guess..):silly:

I'm sure it got Oreo.
But I have another question: Is Samsung Galaxy J3 2017 working faster on Android 7 or on Android 8 ?

But every newer OS is larger in storage size and in RAM so it should run slower
The above sentence comes from IT experiance (dont even think about Windows10 as a example)

Oh no! there are some minor stuff that got removed or changed on the Oreo update :
The auto rotation quick toggles animations got removed.
The slide close animation when turning off the screen/display got changed.
Opera Max on Ultra Power Saving mode got replace with Samsung Max.
But anything else is fine or got upgrade.
and yes Android 8.0 is a lot faster and smoother and better ram management.

I'm in shock cause I don't see and feel any difference between Android 7 and Android 8
Has that happened ever before? For example when KitKat turned into Lolipop then Marshmellow than Nougat?
(4.4.2->5.1.1->6.0->7.0->8.x)

Android Updates

Well i've had the tab 5 a few weeks now and this is the second update i've recieved already . Now on 157 with October security updates .
Very impressed Huawei are sending out updates to a budget tab like this so frequently , unlike my old galaxy tab s2 .. samsung couldnt be bothered at all !
P.S .. I cant upload a screenshot

My Mediapad T5 10.1 LTE is on Android 8.0 (AGS2-L09 8.0.0.231).
I couldn't find information about upgrading to Android 9 or 10

A couple of websites list 9.1.0.116 for the ags2-w09 model but no download option that I've seen.
Also not sure I'd want to risk it as the latest update was December and was 8!
Has anyone got 9 on a T5!?

Not yet but china versions are updated to Pie, so I guess we'll have to wait a couple of months.

Any opinion?: firmware choice: Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 SM-T810

Any opinion?: firmware choice: Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 SM-T810 [moved from Android General Q&A]
I'm looking for best bets for choosing a good firmware update for this older SM-T810 tablet that I still like. It is Wifi-only.
The tablet recently got very flaky on Android 5 so I let it install an auto-downloaded image for Android 6. The new image probably came from Samsung since I was told at purchase that device had official Samsung firmware for Android 5.1.1. (see ABOUT DEVICE below)
Things got worse using the new Android 6 image, so bad that I'm ready to install new firmware by sideloading.
1. Since the device was rooted by prior owner (see: DEVICE HISTORY below for details) I am guessing I have little to gain by sticking with an official Samsung image--unless nothing else works. Does that sound right? And, does anything prevent me from going the non-Samsung route?
2. If it makes sense at this point to try a non-Samsung image, my question for folks here boils down to this: where am I likely to have the best luck finding a build that will work well on the device? For example, I wonder
who are the most experienced makers of firmware for this older tablet?
and which version of Android--7 or 8? Should I avoid 8 or go for it?
(I've seen an unofficial Lineage OS build for Android 8. I believe that Android 7 builds exist, too.)
Thanks for any suggestions.
____________________________________________________________________________________________
MORE:
(I've waited so long to update because a) I seldom use the tablet and b) seller said that he'd had problems with a German Nougat and had reverted to official Android 5.1.1. )

[DEVICE HISTORY, as far as I can say:
I bought in 2017 on swappa.com. Seller told me "What you would get out of the box is the official Samsung OEM firmware for Android 5.1.1 (XAR-T810XXU2BPB1-20160323135521) with the official Samsung recovery. Updates will apply without issue, either by directly loading with Odin or SmartSync, or doing an OTA firmware update....It is running pure stock firmware now. Since it was rooted at one point, the Samsung Knox flag is tripped. It's the only thing that would distinguish this device from a new-in-box tablet."]

Linesgeos 15.1 Oreo is about the best you can get on gts210eifi.

Thanks. I didn't know it had GTS210 gpu.
Notebookcheck.net and Wikipedia show it as ARM Mali-T760 MP6.
Whatever, Lineage OS 15.1 doesn't seem to have any serious competition. Hope it works when I try it--first time jitters!

I got N on mine for a long time. Now I get O 15.1 linesgeos now. It looks like the best for gts210wifi for now.

Do ALL Samsung devices get beta programs? (including s10, Android 12)

I dont see a beta for S10 anywhere online. Just curious if old phones like the s10 is now, do they get a beta tester program like s21 does?
