I bought a Factory Unlocked Note 8 from Amazon model name is SM-N950U . I use Phone Info it told me my model is SM-N950UZKAXAA and working on XAA csc. It's running on Verzion Firmware but has no bloatware and carrier provide info is XAA/XAA/VZW . But i haven't receive any OTA update until now. I used smart switch it told me "Your current version is lastest", and verizon software update told me "The current firmware is not supported !". But i try many times to flash verizon firmware version but my phone still not have any carrier bloatware and still have no OTA update !
Anyone told me how to receive OTA update with my phone ! Although i flash many carrier firmware but it still XAA/XAA/VZW !
I used to flash N950U1 firmware but it make my wifi connection on my phone not perfect, it's slow down to much !
Greetings,
I would like to know where and when I would be receiving my Note 9 Pie update. I purchased my device as an early adopter (Sept. 2018). I bought my device direct from Samsung, unlocked, and I use it on the Tmobile network. The Model number and info is as follows:
Model Number - SM-N960U1
Serial number - RF8K72LJLZD
SW update Number - N960U1UEU1ARL1
I would like to know Where I would be receiving my Note 9 update from; Samsung, or Tmobile?
On an alternate note. I attempted to perform a manual Pie update but could not perform it with the specs I mentioned earlier. I attempted to perform a manual install by inserting SS-N960USQU1ARL1-to-U1CSB3-UP into my SD card root directory, but received an error notification. Apparently, I could not perform the update for the SM-N960U1. If I decide to perform a manual update, What software should I use?

It will come directly from Samsung since you are on a U1 device.
You can not use the CSB3 update zip. It isn't for your device. N960U1UEU1ARL1 =/= N960USQU1ARL1. That is why they have different build numbers.
As far as WHEN you will receive it. Good question. Sometime after all the carriers receive their updates.
Please feel free to spend some time reading these threads, particularly the ones about the various Pie updates, as they all contain these answers to your questions.
Thx much

Thx much in advance. The only build version that I seen for my device to date were the U and U1 versions, hence my questions,.
Hey guys. Got an unlocked AT&T Note 9 here with model number N960U. Haven't received a single ota update since I got the phone. Had to manually download a firmware just to get me to Pie and One UI.
Haven't got any ota since then either. Stuck on January 1 security patch. What do I do? Don't mind flashing a firmware, but don't know which to flash.
Pls find my current software detail attached.
PS - I don't use AT&T. Matter of fact, I'm not in the US
Hey guys!
Today I have purchased my first Samsung device since Galaxy S2 (I've been using xiaomi since then) and I have met a bit of an issue with my phone. The current version installed is One UI 1.1 (June 1 security patch) and the phone says it's the latest version. I have purchased it from Hungarian Telekom provider. Is it possible, that the provider is handling OTA updates? If so, is it possible to install the generic version instead of the provider firmware via odin? I thought provider OTA is no longer an existing stuff, but It seems that it's not.
Thanks for the answers!
Edit: most importantly: is it possible to relock bootloader if I wanted to sell it sometime?
Yes, the provider handles the updates unless you are on the unlocked Samsung firmware in which case Samsung itself will provide updates. There are tons of firmware files floating around the forums here, you might be able to flash one if one works with your phone.
Thanks, I'm surely gonna do it if the bootloader can be locked back.
Frija App should be able to help you download the correct firmware. Just be sure to install the Visual C++ Runtimes (2008 and 2010) before launching the app.
I live in the UK and I purchased my Samsung Galaxy S10 SM-G973F from Amazon. I still do not have the Android 12 update and when I looked at my phone I found that the Country Code is AUT which I am told is Switzerland. I have had the phone a while and have had updates previously but Android 12 is not one of them
I have tried to do a software update on the phone and using Smart Switch on my PC but both say my software is Android 11 and that it is up to date.
I see on the internet posts suggesting the CSC on android phones can be changed but I have tried several methods without success and they are for specific models and I can't find one specifically for the S10.
I have rooted several of my phones in the past but would prefer not having to root this one.
Does anyone know how I can change my CSC to BTU. Can I just Odin install the latest Official Samsung Android 12 UK firmware to change it or would that not work?
Also I have used the Phone info app and that states that the Firmware CSC Code is BTU and the Active CSC Code is XEU?
Would appreciate any suggestions.
Thanks
