Cool. I'll flash it after work. How long does it take to flash?
Oreo beta for Snapdragon S8 and S8+
- Thread starter Crsdr37
- Start date
It took me about 10 minutes. You'll need to reflash BQL1, though, before you do anything.
Keep an eye out could have CRB2 potentially today or tomorrow.
do we know what the difference is? I'd rather not have to odin back to BQL1 again if it's minor.
The past two times I've odined back to BQL1 I've had to reset my phone due to corrupt storage. Does this mean my BQL1 firmware is messed up and if so do I need to redownload it?
You cannot let the phone boot you need to wait until just about the end of the Odin flash and start holding volume up and bibxy so you go straight to recovery and flash CRB2. If you do this no wipe or corruption should occur.
Worked like a charm. Gotta really thank you for this one. I've been updating since the beginning to all the new Oreo betas and it was not much fun having to set my phone back up each time.
You could I find it easier to let the phone reboot just start holding the buttons right before the reboot
Do I just select the PA file according to SamMobile? because health services keep appearing and says no connection because my dumbass flashed a partial oreo or just select all files and flash?

When the official OTA update gets release will we have to flash back to BQL1 to receive it?
No way to tell yet you won't have to wipe so even if you do no big deal.
No don't think so. Samsung in Germany supposedly released an official Oreo there. Now we wait.
I'm at CRAG and tired of updating. When the official Oreo rolls out will we need to do anything special, or will we just be able to do the OTA for the upgrade.
