Galaxy Note 8

[Traq]

Been abusing the beta for past 24 hours. Feels like a new device. Very stable and no glitches so far.

Haven't read too much, is it a full wipe update?

Vodacom bit late to the party.

What theme are you using here? please link if possible,
Thanks

You can have a look here and follow the steps. No wipe needed and doesn't change csc if done correctly.

Which is the non branded firmware? XFA or XFE? I want to get rid of the Voda bloatware on my phone

Is Android Pie around the corner for us?

Is Android Pie around the corner for us?

Yup, and if you're like me & can't wait till March, you can install the Slovakian or Bulgarian release via Odin.

If you mean if it's officially released,worldwide ?
As far as i have read ( understand) on Sammobile,
the Official Stable version has been
released, a few days ago.
I think Croatia and some other countries got the stable version . Not sure.

It will be now up to Vodacom and MtN providers, to release it locally etc. Most probably XFE will be
available soon.
(If it follows the Note 9 pattern)
Good luck.

Does Samsung Pay work when you flash this Rom?

My guess is no.

 

[w1tw0lf]

Yes it does work.

 

[Orbiter]

Yes it does work.

Which firmware did you flash? My Samsung Pay is in french, with notifications for that country.

must say, i thought ill probably buy a note 10 this year but after this update im having second thoughts since my note 8 is in perfect condition apart from the screen burn in and the battery life still seems unchanged

really does feel like a new phone and also got super slow mo function like the new ones to top it all off. nice

I flashed the 1st build that came out after the beta. Used the home_csc file for the csc and nothing has changed. Still shows xfa/xfa/xfa in software info.

Sammobile is showing the XFV update was released yesterday. Has anyone received it yet?

Got the update this morning (XFV Vodacom).

 

[MidnightZA]

I also got the update this morning. I did the update and one thing that's bothering me is the notification bar clock is on the left. Is there a way to move it back to the right had side? I've checked all the settings and its not an option

 

[voldoverse]

I noticed after the update i only get H+ now and no more 4g, does anybody know if there is a setting to turn on 4g again?
