Hello there, here are links to firmware files for the Galaxy S9. This is a homepage for firmware of all models, and will be updated as more and more firmware become available.

Here are the download links:
SM-G960F (single SIM) -- Link
SM-G960F/DS (Dual-SIM) -- Link

Important note: As @murtaza02 mention in the S9+ thread, the OXM multi-CSC firmware is a good choice, so we are using that firmware for the SM-G950F model (Asia, Europe, Australia, etc.)
Check out his thread here for download instructions and to know more about OXM firmware, and why you should use this only if you have SM-G960F.

US models (all are SM-G960U, but firmware are carrier-wise)

Is there a link for the T-Mobile U1 version that doesn't stay at 58% forever? I know that's how some ppl make money but it doesn't work if the files stay at 58%.

I'm confused

I'm coming from Europe where the only model of the the phone we use is "F" eg.sm-g955f, sm-g 965f..

I'm now in the us and I got a galaxy s9 sm-g965U1 ulocked online from the samsung store..

I then found out there is a sm-g965U... which is also unlock and unbranded for the USA... some one please tell me what difference is there between these two models... And If there is no difference why does it exist?

I'm also kinda confused with those versions of FW.
I've got US Galaxy S9 T-Mobile branded (960U), which I successfully "unlocked" right after purchase. I still had T-Mobile splash screen as well as their bloatware, but I could use my phone with any other US SIM. I didn't liked all that bloatware, so I just flashed 960U1 firmware, although I was not sure about all those "CSC" things (coming from HTC devices). Still can't find proper table with explanation of those CSC. Probably I've flashed XAR variant... At this moment my FW version (from FOTA check screen) says G960U1UEU1ARBG/G960U1OYM1ARGB/G960U1UEU1ARGB. Is it proper US unlocked version of FW or I've messed up something? I'm still using T-Mobile but I just want to get as stockish look as possible, without all carrier bloatware. Currently, WiFi calling works for me, but not video calling that was present on initial T-Mobile FW on my phone.

What is XAR in FW downloads? Why there are two T-Mobile 960U FW versions? Why there is also T-Mobile 960U1 FW?

Hey guys I note that OP states that if you have the S9 (G960F) then you should only use the OXM firmware, now I currently have that firmware on my phone but in the UK, EE does not allow 4g calling on that firmware.

Just curious if I'm missing something or is the OXM firmware the best apart from using EE and their 4g calling?

Thanks in advance

I am trying to get a T-Mobile to Unlocked firmware without splash screens. There are U1 firmware with carriers listed. I am not sure which one to use, it is a little confusing.
I know I used XAA on my S8, is XAR the non-carrier version on s9?

Hello,
I am very new to all this. This is my first Android phone (Galaxy S9 SM-G960F) purchased from an ebay seller to use with a T-Mobile account. It is unlocked but it is missing the wifi calling feature and volte. I was hoping to flash it to the T-Mobile UI ROM in post 1 using Odin 3.13.1 but it keeps failing. I have been reading a lot of threads so my question is am I doing everything correctly or will that particular ROM not work on the G960F model? Thanks for any help

You have a international model F with a exynos processor and you tried flash a US model U with a snapdragon processor.
Off course it will fail!!!
Sorry but I can't help how to get Wi-Fi call working.
