Galaxy z fold 2 Got the new official 3.0 update - Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion

Its finally here now updating.....

US or international version?

International got it from india Mumbai

As is often the case, the broken Good Lock modules mar the upgrade. The annual Android upgrade used to be worth the wait. Now it kind of isn't. How sad.

I'm unable to find "Edge Lighting" section under Display menu.
One UI 3.0

Its under brief pop-up settings now.

I just got my update, and honestly I'm not liking it very much, the asthetic changes i prefered the old one, but the thing that really bothers me, is that it feels slower and stuttering, am i the only one that has that experience or is there anyone else ? For what was supposed to be the flagship of the future, samsung has been lefting us on the side with getting the update 2 months later than the s20 and then its rubbish. Let me know if anyone else is experiencing the same.

Well, supposedly.. AT&T is to release it today, so I'll see what the fuss about it.

Got the update on ATT this AM been running very smoothly. I like the changes thus far.

If ATT and VZW have it, then TMO should be released soon. Then those of us with unlocked models should have it right after that.
I love 3.0 on my Note 20 Ultra, so Def looking forward to it on the Z Fold 2.

Anybody with the unlocked version get their update?

I got tired of waiting and actually flashed the sm-f916w ... I have to say it's working pretty good so far. Might keep it to get the updates faster

I'm still waiting. Though the new hotness would be nice, I have it on my Note 20 and my OnePlus devices and it's nothing night and day so I'll be patient and get it when I get it, lol.

No. Still waiting. Since I have had every Google phone beginning with the Galaxy Nexus and ending with the Pixel 4XL, this waiting thing is kind of different. Hopefully soon, but still loving the phone.

Mine isn't. Nothing other than Samsung branding on case or load up
Did you get anywhere on your original question? I'm trying to see whether I can update to MM (or N in the future) - but I have small balls for this sort of stuff. My phone works, makes calls, gets data (although always shows as on 4G when it obviously isn't) - but looks like it's some weird mongrel of a USA / CHN / HK build. Just about to request help & guidance

YES IT DOES! For UN-branded FW, ALL carriers must approve that FW for release!

Because Sammy OS is heavily modded to their linking so it will take time for them to get it all up and running and then testing and then some more testing.

If this is true, it makes perfect sense.
Not questioning your knowledge or honesty, but can you substantiate this statement, articles, links, 'knowledge base'?

carriers release updates to use on THEIR network; it doesnt matter one bit who you bought the phone from..
thats common knowledge in the cellular world.. Google is the only sometimes "exception", but if their phones are sold by any carrier, i.e. when t mobile sold the nexus 6, it was T Mobile who released/approved updates, NOT Google

it does matter.
in Europe, if you don't get your phone through a carrier you get the F model.
while other variants get their updates through the carrier, F models always get their updates directly from Samsung.
until the note 8 the unbranded models(like the F models) where always first to get updates, because no carrier approval is needed.
edit: correction.
there are carrier specific F models, the carrier branding is in the csc in those cases.
any phone bought from Samsung directly or a store that isn't tied to a carrier will always have an "unbranded" csc in Europe.

What good would spoofing your location do? European models are N950F. You're asking about the US N950U1. They're different phones, different firmwares.

The U1 will get the update last. The carriers still have to approve it before it can be released. And they will push the update to their carrier branded models first.

Hmmm...no warranty, no Samsung Pay, and not 100% compatible radio bands. Doesn't seem worth it to get a faster update. Especially since you can load the Pie beta on your N950U1 right now. It's very, very stable, by the way. I've been running Pie on my N950U1 for two months now.

OnePlus 7 Pro 5G (EE/UK) Updates

Has anyone found out or received any information on updates regarding the UK's 5G OnePlus 7 Pro? Currently on Oxygen OS 9.5.3.GM27BA.
What did you need to know? I've had mine since launch day.

Same, but there haven't been any major updates. The 4G model is two updates ahead already. Seems like they are just selling the 5G model for money without offering any support for it. Just wanting to know if there is gonna be any update anytime soon, and which update are they gonna give us, because being a few updates behind is rediculous.

Ah, I see. I'm on 9.5.3 which it was updated to on day 1. Haven't had any issues at all though so not too fussed about an update...

Just seems a bit unfair with the 4G model is getting updates to the camera and other fixed, and then people with the 5G model which is the more expensive device is just getting left out. If they want to make 5G the future of smartphones they should offer more support on the device.
OxygenOS 9.5.4.GM27BA should be the next update according to this
https://github.com/OnePlusOSS/andro...mmit/510ad8fb042c4a87e10f18e5c158361c36238c11
Would converting the 5g phone to international Allow updates since 9.5.7 is now out....
Bit annoyed that the updates are slow too considering the last 2 have related to improving the camera
If so is the only way to do it to root it?
Everyone needs to keep expectations in line with the situation we have here.
There is only 1 place in the entire world that has the 5G Pro device in use.
So updates will be tested on Non 5G and then ported over to 5G.
The camera i version 9.5.1 5G is the same as 9.5.4 non 5G.
So i expect the same here, 9.5.7 upates to be included in 9.5.4 5G.
However seeing as the source code was uploaded 3 days ago and still no OTA it must mean EE are testing all updates and delaying it.
So I dont think its OnePlus problem.
Once the device is no longer exclusive then we may be able to use EU 5G updates on our phones.
I believe the way to works is OP will give an update to ee they will then test it, report any bugs back to OP to fix and then approve the update and then it will go out. EE have always been slow with updates.. Well for Samsung they have been. My pixel 3xl updated straight from Google.
Why do EE need to be testing this? I would understand it if the phone had custom firmware on it by EE but they don't. The phone is no different from the standard device all be it with the 5g modem.
Very frustrating, really want the camera improvements.
Is it possible to put this version into the global version of updates like the t mobile version has been done?

I don't think this will work, there are some differences in the firmware. You may loose some functionality.

Seen somewhere that you can flash it as a 4g device might look into that as 5g isn't available where I am ATM so not loosing anything then could flash the 5g rom once 5g more available....
Ee fastest network in the UK till it comes to updates
Op ain't much better ATM about 5g device had no answers about updates or when ee exclusive deal expires
Let hope for some updates soon it's quite bad we haven't had the camera updates
its been 2 weeks since last update and nothing yet i wish i waited and got non 5g now

I think you will lose any reception. Because of the different Bands.
But it's discussed several times in many threads...
Forget Pie updates. They were waiting to bring you 10:

Question SM-G9980 HK Snapdragon. Anyone got the update?

Can we install the regular snapdragon update?
not got it yet. tried to vpn to other countries but still no joy
G9980 haven't received it too.
I had this version of the Note 20, and to begin with it got all the updates, but then it never got the big updates and became the forgotten stepchild. I hope that isn't happening here.
Sadly no region of G9980 got the beta update and no where got the September patch to sideload the update.zip
While China suppose to be the one of the countries to be in beta phase but there is no news yet for G9980!!
September is almost over and still no update
This is exactly what happened with the china note 20 ultra model. Quite frustrating.
Guys, Septembre is almost over and Samsung not pushing the September patch to 9980 while most of the eco and mid-range phones got it!
I think we the 9980 owners should be waiting for beta 2
There is no hope for 1
From my experience of owning the China/HK model of the Note 20.Ultra, there was never a beta when 11 came out, and while Samsung started out good with updates, it was the same as this ultimately. That's the price of owning this particular model.
In saying that, I've just checked the Korean firmware and it still hasn't got the September patch. Odd.
well this just makes me more disappointed reading this i never own these regions device before and i was hoping and looking in other threads that beta will possible to sideload but i think now no hopes.
I think that China is a REAL BIG market. So no one's want to break their phones) especially when holidays in there. That's my thoughts. And 2nd reason - no one works in holidays... Devs and testers etc
Meanwhile everyone already got October patch but we're still on August lol
In seriously thinking about switching to the US model which is now sim and esim since the beta.
and now we have AUI
but it's September's patch)
I never got that. Still in August...
