Anyone in Mexico has recieved the oreo update yet? - Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers

Basically the title, has anyone with a note 8 in Mexico recieved the oreo update yet?
I'm very excited to try it out...!!

No bro I'm just waiting like you but I hope that we can get it soon hopefully

I dont think anybody who bought by official distribuitors (telcel, movistar AT&T) has received it yet, Elektra sells a somewhat odd 950U note 8, snapdragon 64 GB, but sammobile lists Mexico 950F with 7.1.1 for the three carriers, we will have to wait some more days

Guys I'm downloading it right now!! I entered settings and software updates and boom! Just like that it's 1329.19 mb. Now to wait...

N950U and it was originally Sprint, but I'm using it on Telcel, so far it's been a good update, I like the new AOD styles and the edge lightning effects.

Yes jmlagz, as per forum rules, the use of english is mandatory, I am from Mexico, but I try to write in english

I just checked sammobile, movistar users in Mexico can update to Oreo, please post your experiences after updating, I have read that factory reseting after a major update like this, prevents some undesirable issues

Sammobile now shows that telcel is receiving oreo

Anyone have any information about AT&T update? Telcel and Movistar are receiving Oreo, but nothing yet for AT&T users.
While my old now 5 keeps receiving (security) updates, there's nothing for the Note 8.
Can I just flash some other firmware and keep using Samsung pay?

Yes, indeed, you can, samsung pay will work in official roms, providing the rom country supports it

I'm thinking of flashing TMobile or Sprint systems to solve it, but I'm just confirming that data connectivity will be ok on my Vodafone GSM N/W here in Egypt.
ive got the america movil PR one and no camera update yet either.
I know with the XT925 which was the GSM razr HD you could flash other territory RSDlite images as long as the phone was the same model, so probably you could flash the AT&T image if you really wanted . havent tried it, but people did it with the razr HD so i'm thinking it would work
i read you might have to flash the at&t recovery over first, but you should be able to do that if you unlock. not entirely sure though, someone will have to try i guess.
I have the 139.7.26.ghost.row.AmericaMovil.en.CL (Chile) and I was wondering if i can flash t-mobile firmware, but I'm concerned about the LTE freq band. Here in Chile the LTE runs on the 2600hz band.
Anyone know something about that? if I flash the TMO firmware, can I use the recovery to restore an image with the stock en.CL firmware?

Just wondering if you guys have gotten the update yet? I have a Nextel phone from Mexico and I don't know if I have the update or not, since I bought it used! Mine is:
139.7.30.ghost_row.NII.en.MX
Would love to see the camera update. I'm contemplating flashing the T-Mobile firmware as well, since mine is XT1053. Anyway, just looking to see if you guys had received the update or not. I think our phones are very similar, just different carriers.

Just install the T-Mobile retail ROM and you would get the OTA. That's what I did...
For all of you that have a Mexican MotoX (1058) from Telcel. I just flashed the kitkat firmware for AT&T (ATT_XT1058_4.4-13.11.1Q2.X-69-3_CFC_1FF.xml.zip), via RDLite (Bootloader has to be unlocked) ....works like a charm. Everything runs VERY smooth and buttery. The only thing that needs confirguring is the APN for Telcel (Which I will provide). So I you're not willing to wait until after X-mas for the 4.4 update...just flash AT&T (Just follow the guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2446515)

The AT&T ROM is full of AT&T bloatware. The T-Mobile ROM is retail and bloatware free, it is much better...

No, they are not! They do work though but you may lose access to some bands. You could always flash the tmobile 4.4 and then flash just the modem from the att 4.4.

Hi, I have a Motorola XT1225 with firmware version 21.11.9.quark_tefla.tefla.en.01
Does anyone knows from which country is it? The seller told me these are Moto Maxx from US, but I don't know really.
I want to upgrade to Lollipop and I don't know which firm to flash.
Thanks!

And you are still in 4.4.4 ?
I also have a XT1225 Chile - Movistar (Telefónica). It didn't recieve Lollipop yet. Still in 4.4.4.
If there is a way to share the firmware, just let me know. I have some basic knowledge. I hace recently unlocked the bootloader.
Maybe I will try to update to lollipop manually. I'm afraid Movistar will not publish Lollipop in the near future.
theres no way you can pull out official firmware, it gets released from motorola, you can only pull OTA's
no hay forma de que puedan extraer su firmware, lo saca motorola oficial, solo pueden extraer OTA's
Can I flash the Brazilian lollipop retail over a carrier kitkat? And to do that do i need to have unlocked bootloader?
Fixed!
problem got fixed with the Brasil 5.0.2 firmware finally
parition flashing got an error, but all other files flashed successfully and the device worked again

I have made it, but just to stay on the safe side, I first flash Brazil KitKat and then Brazil Lollipop. You need to unlock your bootloader. It is fast and simple, and let you recover if something fails.
I did it without unlocking the bootloader and it worked. I have lollipop for a week now and everything works perfect. I had already flashed the KitKat retail, but it still showed as carrier version (had the tefbr in the end for Vivo here in Brazil) and when I flashed the lollipop it still has the tefbr in the end of the version name. The strange is that version doesn't even exist yet...
for now I'm satisfied with that but I think I'll have to updated manually again when a new release comes.
does your still show the carrier code in the end?

Yes. I have the carrier code at the end. Tefla in my case (Movistar Chile). Unlocking your bootloader is just a precaution measure in case something goes wrong, or if you want to install a custom recovery.
I really do not know if we will recieve OTAs. Let's wait and see.
Still nothing for 5.0.2 Puerto Rico?

Hello im from Chile / Soy de Chile.
In my case, i'm keeping the TEFLA in the carrier field (Menu: about). I have 5.0.3 Lollipop and i experiment slow performance / En mi caso estoy manteniendo el mismo carrier (Movistar Chile) viendo en el menú About. Tengo Lollipop y estoy teniendo un rendimiento muy pobre.
Tendré que volver a Movistar Chile Kitkat y actualizar por OTA para que se arregle el tema del rendimiento??
Me puedes ayudar? Gracias, saludos.
OTA without flashing?
I'm not really experienced with the flashing thing. Months ago I had a Galaxy S4 and I flashed it to a retail firmware, and when the Lollipop OTA was available, I updated through the phone itself. Yesterday I flashed my Claro Chile Moto Maxx to Mexico KitKat and then Lollipop. Am I going to receive OTA normally? Or should I flash everytime an OTA is available?
Thank you ,the post was really useful.

Does this mean the SM-925V is useless in Mexico?
I cannot seem to pickup LTE and I keep getting "SIM Card is not from Verizon"
I'm trying to use a Telcel SIM card.
Seems I was thinking the same as the above, using something like PingPong to switch.
You need to add the apn manually. Then deactivate notification of verizon service

Thanks very much for this. One quick question? I'm on AT&T BOJ7, can I flash this to switch the phone over to Cricket branded as they are my actual carrier. Plus I think they have a lot less bloat in their rom, and you still have access to Samsung Pay. Only reason I am asking is that AT&T are at BOJ7 and cricket is BOJ6. Wasn't sure it the 7 update blew an efuse?

Cricket has less bloatware ...
Just to let everyone know....it does work going from AT&T BOJ7 to the Cricket BOJ6 without tripping KNOX. All worked without a hitch.
I can verify, the Cricket version works on AT&T variant. I believe the only difference in the two devices is the software being Cricket is owned by AT&T.

I will take your word and word of others that At&t will work for cricket. It is only logical as at&t owns cricket. Thank you and everyone else who took time to assist others to let us know sm g920 AZTUU3BOJ6 will work and how to do so. Have rooted other tmobile phones so the jump to cricket for my fiance is a bit daunting. Will let everyone know as well how well it works.

Moto Z3 Chinese version: How to change ZUI software to pure Android

I am still investigating if buying a Z3 (without "Play") would make sense to me.
US Verizon version does not seam to be money well spent for me because of unlockable bootloader and only single SIM support. So I am putting out my feelers on Chinese version. I have not considered this one before, because it will not come with pure Android, but with ZUK's ZUI what I do not want at all.
But some days ago, I got an information about the possibility to replace ZUI software with Verizon pure Android version. Bootloader of Chinese version is unlockable, so this would not be any problem in general. Unfortunately, the tutorial to do the software changeover is written in Chinese and Google translator's output only lets me guess what will have to be done. Before I will buy a device for more then 500$, I wanna be sure what to do to get it like I want it with minimal risk to brick it.
Therefore, I would be grateful if somebody speaking Chinese could help by explaining here in English the neccessary steps to come to pure Android on that device. Here is a link to the mentioned tutorial: https://club.lenovo.com.cn/thread-4659746-1-1.html
I am not a flashing novice - I would only need some short instruction which steps I have to do and what I have to care for. No need to explain how to unlock bootloader, how to install and ADB and so on.
Why you just don't buy a chinese android pure version? If I'm not wrong, lightinthebox is selling such version and without ZUI
This won't run on Verizon properly since the IMEI won't be in their database.

Yeah, it shouldn't work for a Verizon user, but OP never said that is going to use it on that carrier. And according the profile user is from Europe.
I'm interested in having a US Z3 Play with ZUI rom, since it's cheaper to buy the US Play version than the Z3 with ZUI from China. I really like the ZUI Android, so, does someone knows where i can find the original ZUI rom for the Z3?
Thanks a lot.

I own a Motorola P30 (ZUI-based) and the OS is horrible. Too many bugs!
I'm NOT a fan of ZUI skin. It's like Lenovo didn't bother making it a polished UI. They just want to have something else because it is being sold in China.
Bugs on accessibility setting (will reset to OFF). This is ANNOYING as you can't use a proper app that needs accessibility services. You ALWAYS have to turn it on again and again.
Bug on 3rd party apps like IG and FB. Video watching is useless as you cannot watch in HD. So all IG stories and FB videos are pixelated.
If you upload a story in IG, it will upload a video with 15FPS like you are watching something from 1 decade ago!
I'm using a Chinese version Z3 XT1929-15 in the US which is flashed into pure android(verizon), and it works fine with ATT network(vzw not tested).
It's quite easy if you have ever flash a motorola cell phone.
First you must unlock your phone here: motorola-global-portal.custhelp.com/app/standalone/bootloader/unlock-your-device-b (sorry I cannot post a url)
Second download the firmware here: mirrors.lolinet.com/firmware/moto/messi/official/VZW/
Then flash the whole image with RSD Lite or fastboot commands. A wipe is needed if you manually flash the files. Then enjoy the phone with verizon firmware, you can disable the verizon apps if you don't like(you can do it with Debloater)

I'm using a Chinese version Z3 XT1929-15 in the US which is flashed into pure android(verizon), and it works fine with ATT network(vzw not tested).
It's quite easy if you have ever flash a motorola cell phone.

Glad to see another XT1929-15 owner around here! hehe
Snake, by any chance could you achieve root on the device? For some reason when I flash Magisk I finish with bootloop (then I flash Magisk uninstaller and go back to stock without issues). I guess I'm forgetting something about the procedure, but I can't figure out.. Thank you in advance!!

Moto Z3 Chinese bootloader unlock
How did u manage to unlock the bootloader and install the Verizon firmware.
Mine does even give the unlock code.
Both rsd lite and the fastboot commands are not working.

You just have to follow the normal procedure to unlock BL of any Motorola phone with the link provided by q.snake on previous posts.
You're also using chinese Moto Z3 like us, right?
Can you give us details or a screenshot of your issue?
Estoy usando en Mexico el motorola xt1929-15 messi. Es chino y lo compre en ligthinginthebox, pero vino Con Android 8.1 y desde hace un año que lo estoy usando y cero actualizaciones y lo peor es que no se actualiza a Android 9 de manera ota. No soy experto como ustedes en teléfonos celulares , pero hay algo que se pueda hacer para actualizarlo? Gracias
Mod edit English from G Translate: I am using the motorola xt1929-15 messi in Mexico. It is Chinese and I bought it in ligthinginthebox, but it came with Android 8.1 and for a year I am using it and zero updates and the worst thing is that it does not update to Android 9 in an ota way. I am not an expert like you on cell phones, but is there anything that can be done to update it? Thank you
Sorry for getting back so late... Got another phone in the meantime, but I am still very interested in Z3 XT1929-15. Didn't know that lightinthebox sold this one with pure Android, but no matter, it is sold out there. Any idea where I can still get it from? I am from Germany / Europe - so no matter whether it works with Verizon or not. Would not even mind buying a pre-owned one if it's in a really good condition.

I have got one at Aliexpress. It is a chineese XT1929-15, but comes with already unlocked BL and reflashed to stock Verizon, that is very convenient. I doubt that it will work with Verizon, but it works with european carriers without any problem, both sims. Little overpriced though.

Yes, XT1929-15 can be updated to 9.0. You can flash the latest stock Verizon rom via flashall. But the radio must remain chineese (do not flash radio part, you need to exclude appropriate lines, fastboot flash modem and fastboot flash fsg, from flashall.bat)

@Maheshwara
You need to be registered there to open direct link.
Or just open the root, aliexpress.com, and search for "Moto Z3", it's there.
