Can anyone upload a mirror please? I hate AFH.

 

[DJ_Jedi]

Please, a mirror on Gdrive or Mega, AFH is just too slow and unstable.

In think we'll need to know your current and target CSC
Most likely they'll both be in the multi-csc ROM giving no issue

yeah they're in the same rom(btu and phn) does that mean i can change it with that samsung insider 'rom'?

 

[crixley]

I noticed you can now change Bluetooth options in developer options and they actually work.

 

[ivanivanovvv]

Did anyone get the latest OTA of CRB7 or CRAP on XEU CSC code ?

ugh.. Didn't expect to still be on Beta here in the USA on Sprint. At least this build is decent-- I'm more than ready to be done with the damn thing though, this is getting ludicrous

So someone came and put a gun to your head and forced you to buy your S8 and join the beta program?

Odin back to stock. Use Firmware Science site to download the update to newer betas. Enjoy carrier bloat and having to Odin back stock to flash each update.

If you want the most up to date firmwares a Samsung was NOT the phone to buy.

Everyone wants to complain but forgets none of it is forced so just suck it up and be glad you even got Oreo before everyone else with an S8. Just an idea...

LOL, wtf dude? It is a gripe, if I had a true issue I would have reverted long ago. This is entirely too long for a beta, with many S8s out of the program. I'm used to being out of date, because CDMA carriers are rubbish now. I know you had to take a jagoff moment to be toxic, but you've contributed even less than pointing out a CDMA carrier's device is lagging behind. Being uncertified for months is no good for anybody. Shove off lol

Thanks for the link! I may try this eventually, but I'm trying to keep the phone as vanilla as possible for now. Just hoping something changes soon, love oreo on the S8 but not a fan of being uncertified for so long

Guess what, CRB9 is certified and is also probably the one to be released fr this coming end of month.

And to be clear, the only downside to being uncertified is that gpay doesn't work.
