How To Guide OTA and Non-OTA Firmware for S22 Ultra SM-S908U and S22 Ultra SM-S908U1 Versions

[kurrupt_1]

You are on carrier U firmware. This is for U1 unlocked. Looks like you on stock current firmware. You would have to flash over and wipe your device to the beginning of the beta path, then update 4 individual times to get to it. Better off waiting for it to drop OTA for you when official is released. Probably only gonna be a couple of weeks anyway.

You are correct I am on the U firmware. I'll take your recommendation and wait.

Thanks!

I think this is official? It doesn't say anything about beta

That's the 4th Beta

Yup looks like this is the last Beta i can say it's running smoothly, looks like lots of bugs got fixed, so basically next 5.0 should be stable OTA for everyone.
Anyway back to my Note20 Ultra using that phone for today, then tomorrow will keep testing my S22 Ultra 5G on Beta 4.

Any one who has done the beta 4 update, do you feel you are having connectivity issues? Mainly WIFI.

None whatsoever

Anyone have a problem with the screen dimming on whatever screen you're on instead of going to the lock screen with aod? On the beta of course.

What would be the benefit of flashing the unlocked firmware on my att s22 ultra?

 

[Jobudden]

Honestly at this point there really isn't any. That I can think of. You still get bloat. But if you're on Verizon you get the benifit of using samsungs backup vs Verizon back up. Because Verizon forces you to use their back up

Are the updates faster? I thought att was pretty fast with updates but I could be wrong. Does the unlocked firmware get new updates first?

 

[Jobudden]

Actually updates seem to be slower for unlocked devices as of late.

I hate waiting so I always flash back and forth between the U and the U1 which ever comes out first there both really the same as long as you include and flash the HomeCSC you won't loose your settings and it won't reset and it doesn't matter which carrier you flash as long as its the same device country and you don't include any data files in your flash you will always retain your carriers data info so you don't have to wait for your particular carrier to drop as soon as the first US S908U1 or S908U comes out I flash it no matter what carrier it is works perfectly every time

If I wanted to flash the four OTA's which route would be the best?

Flash back to S908USQU2AVG6
Then do these consecutive updates
Via ADB sideload
Beta 1 AVG6->ZVH4
Beta 2 ZVH4->ZVHK
Beta 3 ZVHK->ZVI9
Beta 4 ZVI9 to ZVJ2

Just wanting to verify. If I've gone the U1 beta path (sideloaded not on official beta program) and the official drops, I will actually get the OTA like everyone else?

Yes

Don't think so if your not on official beta program, i think it won't give you OTA.
PS i could be wrong, maybe someone else can share here.

 

[bassman418]

Hope so. Lol instead of flashing back to 12 today and waiting to receive the 13 update officially, I did a factory reset on beta 4. Reloading my stuff now on it. I like U1 instead of U anyway on my Verizon variant.

Anyone on carrier locked At&t get October update?
