ATT 4.3 update, anyone get it?

Just tried downloading the new 4.3 update. It was posted it was coming out today. However, when i try to check for it, it says there is no newer update.
Anyone got this yet? The official download from ATT, not the hacked rom.

If it says there is no update, then its not out yet...
Also, the 13th was and has always been speculation. Don't always believe a well put together picture with information

Nothing here. I'd suggest linger around some Android news sites and wait for one of them to put up something saying that the update is rolling out.

I spoke with an AT&T rep not long ago who had his manager check on the status. He told me it would be out within a week or so, but nothing concrete.

Just reading some info on the S3 and the update was pulled cause people are experiencing lots of problems. I wonder if thats why they pulled the S4...

I just got this text. Would this be for 4.3?

Could be. Looks very similar to the one I got in July for the 4.2.2 patch.

What is your current Build number?

Folks, there is already an older established thread on this matter...

S7 Snapdragon Battery Blues

Hey guys,
So I'm running a stock S7 (AT&T) and have read tons of threads about how to fix battery drain, etc etc. And I'm not finding any great result.
I've tried different debloats and dumbing down lots of system settings, but haven't found that sweet spot yet. I know disabling some things can end up causing further drain, so maybe I'm doing it wrong.
Has there been any definitive solution to fixing the Android System drain? Mine is constantly 30% or more drain at the end of the day.
Any help is greatly appreciated!

Firmware . Mostly older firmwares like apc8 or apf2.

API2 has an updated bootloader. You can't downgrade to any other version of the AT&T firmware unless it's Bootloader 4... This is what I meant when I said "You can't go back."

Stay on stock for awhile and try not to take any OTAs. There are multiple complaints about the latest updates causing a lot of battery drain.

You are on May update
to update download from link posted before
then use this http://forum.xda-developers.com/ver...-to-notes-root-install-xposed-unroot-t3411039 to go back to stock
Do exactly as its in this but change AP , CP and CSC as per new downloaded file .
You will be then on unrooted API2 but it has Android system battery drain

I'm not rooted at the moment... Wouldn't it just be easier to accept the OTA update?
I exchanged my device for a new one already.

OTA can be taken but that would upgrade your BL to 4 , then you are stuck on API only

Ah, so the idea is to update without updating the bootloader, huh?
Is there any way to do this without root?
Sorry, man... I'm a complete noob and haven't rooted a phone in a while.

1 . yes
2. All without root only

No requirement of rooting in this anywhere . Just using odin

Ah, alright. Thanks a lot, man. I'll do this when I get home. I keep getting pesky update requests!

I read everything over and i see what you're talking about. Download and flash all updates besides the BL which is the bootloader... But I'm trying to get away from the battery drain. Should I flash a previous firmware instead of the current for better battery life?
Also, what's the big benefit of having an older bootloader? So you can upgrade and downgrade at will?

[Snapdragon]New OREO Leak w/ March Security Patch Build ARC6

Close thread

Is this a downgrade? Bc my screenshot is from just now and it's the unlocked us variant running the same build it shipped with but has had an update waiting to be installed for about a week. And my number Is higher than yours.

BEWARE!! Thats a new boot loader... v2! you wont be able to do a full factory restore until a v2 bootloader odin file is released.
That being said, how do you like it? any differences?

You will probably be waiting quite awhile.... As I stated in my thread, little to NO devs are working on root for the s9/+... I've seen one Korean user mention he was trying in another forum for us SD users, and ONE other guy... That's it, just 2 people and myself. Don't expect anything before Christmas.

The only member (SAMFail creaters) i know working on ROOT doesnt have the device but has a tester... Its gonna be a while...

Dude, dont post these. I roasted you enough on reddit. The basics, these are bad updates to use unless I can verify them before. Bl updates are dangerous. Also just dont use them dude, the website could be shut down any day because of people like you.

Why are these bad updates?
These updates from sam firm science allowed a lot of us to get onto oreo beta. If you know how to recover your phone why is this a problem. OP explained the risk with the bootloader.

Because NEVER do bl updates. Btw check my post history, I did Note8 Oreo. Also I work with the dude who makes the site. I know this stuff. That's why I am saying it's a bad idea.

Actually, cancel that, he is no longer trying root methods SAMFail has been PATCHED! So, it gonna be even longer until ROOT....

I may just go to international S9+ if there root seems like a false hope on the SD variant. The only issue would be VoLTE and WiFi calling, oh and Samsung suddenly restricting call recording apps on international variant. I tried flashing those Engboot from other thread with no luck btw.

Official Pie beta ota files for Factory Unlocked variant SM-G965U1

Official beta build was pulled directly from the phone that downloaded the OTA update. These are not the leaked builds like before but rather official beta ota builds pushed by Samsung.
This post will be updated a soon as new official builds will be available.
Beta 1/ZRK9:
This OTA file can be flashed directly from recovery but user needs to be on specific build. In this case user must be on Latest Oreo Firmware ARJ2
ARJ2 to ZRK9: https://mega.nz/#!5jxj2ALT!FdMxcXb6xtA63WDmsPktphHnrJFVjll8gEd-h4jGrMU​
Beta 2/ZRKJ:
This OTA file can be flashed directly from recovery but user needs to be on specific build. In this case user must be on Beta 1 (ZRK9)
ZRK9 to ZRKJ: https://mega.nz/#!Y7Q3xKJB!G8o_Wwj-cdUvPlrJNsX9JCpQgkPa3otBJ_yg9YSq27A​
Hotfix1(ZRKJ-to-ZRKP)/ZRKP:
This OTA file can be flashed directly from recovery but user needs to be on specific build. In this case user must be on Beta 2 (ZRKJ)
ZRKJ to ZRKP: https://mega.nz/#!Mu4xVYqI!wdMBsL5iwKjsMkFoMdtyy1sNwlDEJkfVTes-qYQqFdg​
Beta 3/ZRL5:
This OTA file can be flashed directly from recovery but user needs to be on specific build. In this case user must be on Hotfix 1 (ZRKP)
ZRKP to ZRL5: https://mega.nz/#!o3A3AS6Z!pOr4BS9ViujK3ToyuD0WW-k9Dkw9XC_X7kkwc0-Xi1s​
Beta 4/ZRLG:
This OTA file can be flashed directly from recovery but user needs to be on specific build. In this case user must be on Beta 3 (ZRL5)
ZRL5 to ZRLG: https://mega.nz/#!guYTRSwZ!oSUDSXx1Zl58RcMdxrYu2J9pAE8tmyMHab06xPDvNXM​
Note: All the future builds will be incremental and can only be flashed from specific pie build to another. For example Beta 2 will be flashable from Beta 1. Users wont have to plash back to Oreo and than flash next pie builds like when leaked builds were available.
This is how updates are going to be:
ARJ2--> Beta 1 (ZRK9) --> Beta 2 --> Beta 3 --> Beta 4 .........................................

Please let me know if anyone runs into any issue while flashing the firmwares. I have already tested the files with few other folks and everything works fine, there is no issue while flashing them.

You are the best, I'm on this build, downloading right now. Thanks:fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:

Probably the former, since you need to register in Samsung+ app to get updates as they get pushed out by Samsung.
Hopefully this thread will be updated once every new firmware pushes, since my Samsung + app(beta) never allowed me to register, it just won't even if i press register button for thousand times.

Since it was published as an OTA, i would advise you to stay calm for now. Sometimes excitement kills you at the end of the day. That's what i experienced before. Being so excited with the update, am I'm busted with bugs and bloatware like hell. While others who running the patch & installed after few weeks gap from mine is having a good life afterwards.
