I think that update always says to ensure that data is backed up as update potentially can cause data deletion or something like that.

I received and installed the update on my S9 exynos.
I didn't do a factory reset yet because I have exams and I don't have a lot of time to do this stuff, but surprisingly everything seems smoother and faster, but I noticed that the transition of the clock between the always on display and the lock screen is a bit laggy.
Do someone have this issue? And will it become smoother after a few days?
 
Anyone experiencing issues with "Android System" using a lot of battery on android 10 (exynos)?
For me, it doesn't even appear in battery usage menu (maybe android 10 related), but in android 9, sometimes it was taking about 25% of the battery.

Can someone please confirm this?
Thanks in advance :laugh:

I got the update and after that do the factory reset then let battery completely drain and after turning off the phone full charge it.
Now everything nice except i want uninstall lots of apps and customize navigation but can't just these.
I think we will get couple fixing update and performance improvements in next months so don't worry and don't forget factory reset helps you a lot

I'm still on Beta 1 and had to switch from CSJ3 to SK1 before updating if I flash the stable Android 10Q Update now via Odin from the 1st page Google Drive, will I get Ota Updates in Germany?

In my situation I noticed that for some reason phone was connecting to 2G rather than 5G. Once change to default 5G I'm again having full speed.

Try to forget the network and setup from scratch.

I think I just managed to do it, by making a modded boot.img file to be flashed on Odin. Basically you extract the boot.img.lz4 from the AP file, you make it an img file with lz4 extract tool from github, then you copy it in your phone and install Magisk Manager. Then from it, you hit install, create edited boot img, you select the boot.img file. It will create a magisk_patched.img in download folder, you copy it in your computer, you compress it with 7zip in tar format, and flash it with Odin tool in the AP section.

EDIT: this works fine for Titanium Backup, but is it normal that I cannot write in system partition?
EDIT2: I can't recommend this method. It's very unsafe for data loss.

Thank you for your tip.
I just had some time and tried it. My phone could not even boot after flashing.. It threw me back to download. I flashed only the original boot.img as a .tar and fortunately got no data loss!
I hope there comes some solution soon. (I don't even care if I have to use TWRP.)

Is it possible to root s9 plus on android 10 yet ?

I just tried it with Magisk patched boot.img, but no success.. My phone could not even boot with it. (See my prev. reply I just posted.)
I previously tried to root it with a TWRP method that worked on Pie, but it did not work here either.
Sadly I could not find a working way to root it just yet.

    Hello everyone!


    I decided to make a thread, where we can discuss the upcoming update for our lovely device Galaxy S9+. Maybe it's too early for this discussion, or not? I hope the moderators don't mind... I'm very excited about the update and a little bit frustrated that we will not get the beta first. I may upgrade to Note 10+, but I'm not yet sure, because I love too much my S9+ - the design, the screen, feels like everything is perfect though. Only miss the wide-angle camera :p

    The beta program just started! Currently available in India, Korea, and the UK. Thanks to SamMobile we had the first build which you can find below.

    4.12.2019
    The second beta will be available next week, according to SamMobile.

    10.12.2019
    The second beta is out. You can find download links and changelog below.

    19.12.2019
    The third beta is out. You can find download links and changelog below, as usual. The changelog on this one is pretty short and everything looks very stable. I guess is safe to say we can expect very soon stable release.​
    6.01.2020
    Beta N 5 came out today. You can find links and changelog below, as usual.


    14.1.2020

    28.01.2020


    Samsung has released the Android 10 update for the Galaxy S9 and Galaxy S9+. The update is rolling out in Germany at the moment for those who are on Android Pie. Yes, the final build of Android 10 is yet to be released for those who are on the One UI 2.0 beta, though that is probably going to change soon.

    From where to download the stock firmware



    I see people still asking from where to download it, since @sammobile[/user] need premium acc for faster download. There are a few alternatives that are very easy to use and I thought everyone Samsung fan knows them but it seems I was wrong. Gonna share them here.

    1. Updato.com
    This is for people who don't want to install any additional software. However, seems full of ads. If that doesn't bother you, use it.

    2. SamFirm 0.3.6
    It's deprecated but still working though.

    3. Frija
    This is the most updated with very nice interface. I would recommend it.


    Mirros to Google Drive with stock firmware:

    Notes, related to the beta builds:

    1. I think it was a mention somewhere but will write it here also. Both files are in .bin format. You need to rename them in update .zip so you can flash them through stock recovery.

    2. You can't flash it directly if you are rooted, need to be completely sock - this includes the stock recovery. Also, you should be on this firmware G965FXXU7CSK1/G965FOXM7CSJ5/G965FXXU7CSJ5/G965FXXU7CSK1. When new beta's come out you will need to flash them as the way they came out, like beta1->beta2 and etc.

    3. The USA and Korean builds are not compatible with the rest models. Be careful what you flash on your device. By the tip to remove them to not lead to confusion, I will separate them below in the spoiler. The authors of the files can feel free to make a new thread about the specific device.

    Notes, related to Android 10:

    • You can't install any more custom fonts on Android 10 unless you are rooted.
      Check the Galaxy store for your favorite font. If it's there you can buy it and use it.
    • Swift Installer, Substratum doesn't work anymore on S9/ S9+ like before.
      You need will the Synergy. However for me isn't working at all, so basically I can't use any substratum theme or mod. On the other hand Hex Installer works very well and I will recommend it.
    • Blocking ads with DNS still working.
    • Technically, there is no reason to not be able to receive OTA, after flashing stable DBT version with Odin. Just make sure you don't use CSC (use HOME_CSC instead) file to wipe everything and break something with your current CSC. I personally flashed CSC file by mistake, my CSC didn't change it but now I can't receive OTA. No big deal for me will flash it manually when there is a new update.
    • OTA files won't wipe anything. Some user reports that his phone is wiped after OTA, but this usually is impossible. A good idea is always to make a backup with Smart Switch before any procedure of this kind.
    • OTA files won't wipe anything. Some user reports that his phone is wiped after OTA, but this usually is impossible. A good idea is always to make a backup with Smart Switch before any procedure of this kind.
    • Yes, ROOT is possible on Android 10. Check THIS thread to see the steps for rooting.
