OFFICIAL STOCK Firmware-update (Odin) thread Samsung GALAXY S8+ SM-G955F

[nintendolinky]

Your product-code is VOD (Vodafone UK); this will NOT change...

Can I change it? Will I get official XEU OTA's or will it be Vodafone

Nope; but why would you? Your phone is now working on XEU-firmware...

I just helped someone flashing from DTM (ODX) to OXM.

After flashing he had DBT/DBT/DTM

Maybe tht is because he uses a SIM card from 1&1 which would be o2 germany. They don´t have a own CSC. so instead of switching to XEU the phone recognises the german SIM and switches to DBT automatically.

he only flashed all AP,BL,CP,CSC_OXM files from the DBT firmware he loaded via SamFirm.

Can't tell you that: this is new for us all...

Just flashed latest AQDG downloaded the DBT thru samfirm and installed with DBT home csc ( oxm) and phone is still nicely in Xeu/xeu/xeu this new oxm is great idea i think...bigger in size but no need to flash separate home csc. Thanks Henk as always for providing the latest firmwares

NO! SM-G955U is the Snapdragon variant

As the OP says ONLY SM-G955F (Exynos).

You can restore your firmware using SmartSwitch on the PC.

Or get the odin firmware available everywhere else... updato.com or the samfirm

Stock German firmware for a KT unlocked G955N?

Hi, I was trying to replace current SM-G955N KTC Korea (KT Corporation) - G955NKSU1AQDG firmware and received a "Bootloader security check fail" error message.
Using Odin 3.12 with SM-G955F DBT Germany - G955FXXU1AQDG... BL, AP, CP and CSC are populated with the new firmware bits.
I know I must be doing something wrong and don't want to mess with my new S8+ so any help will be appreciated.

Looks like the Bootloader might be locked - or - it is not possible to flash a SM-G955F firmware on a SM-G955N device!

or even both....

This thread is about the SM-G955F Firmware.

No, it's because he is trying to flash a SM-G955F firmware on a SM-G955N model which will never work.

Thanks for your clear response clubtech, so my next question is: can I get a "carrier free" SM-G955N firmware elsewhere? or that don't exist?

Single SIM Firmware on Dual SIM Hardware - any experience?

Hi all,
I just purchased the S8+ Duos from Singapure (SM-G955FD). Is it possible to flash the Single Sim Firmware to the Dual Sim Phone without any restrictions? I would like to replace the Singapur Firmware with a European one (AUT).
That's what I have today (looked-up with Phone info): Model: SM-G955F (Samsung Smart Switch sais SM-G955FD), Active CSC-Code MM1, CSC Country Singapore / SG, Product Code SM-G955FZKDMM1

Has already someone flashed a Dual Sim S8 with the Single Sim Firmware? Any expierence to share?

Thanks in advance!
