Flashing the new Android P for Galaxy S9+ - Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers

Hi guys!
I have a question! I have a Galaxy S9+ (dual sim) and I would like to "dirty flash" the new Android P because I'm not getting the update via OTA for now. Is this possible without root?
Thank you!

Yes, using ODIN download the ROM for your device and flash it from your PC. Knox won't be triggered if it's and official ROM

What if I try to flash the new Android 9 with official rom for another country with the same PDA and CSC ?

G9650?
nothing yet for the snapdragon g9650 version?:confuso:

Thanks for the reply, but if I flash it with Odin, I will lose everything, is like Factory Reset. I would like to keep everything just as it is now.

Where did you get the firmware , or better where Can I download it ? Sammobile ? If yes , It is asking for a premium subscription.

Good for you. I only manage to flash the CSC one which clean flash my phone. Home CSC get stuck on something .img.

Hi. So I'm on stock Oreo with XME CSC. I have downloaded stock Pie with OXM CSC. What should I do in Odin if I want to upgrade the firmware without losing data?

The theory is just flash Home_CSC instead of the CSC one. You'll get 4 files from sammobile, but need only 3. Choose the home_CSC will not delete data. But as I mentioned above, my S9+ got stuck with Home_CSC so I have to flash the CSC ones. But @alimokhtarabadi successfully flash with Home_CSC, good luck to you.

It's the Lollipop version for the nordic countries. Much more stable.
No, it will not trigger KNOX. Do not flash a custom recovery, that will trigger KNOX.
It's safe to flash. Go for it.
Yes, it's official Samsung firmware.

I read in another forum that when we flash a rom without the hidden image, the modem is not updating and we have to :
a) extract the rom and find modem.bin
b) open odin and flash modem.bin in the CP section of odin.
Can someone verify that this is true?

I thought I would flash this to see if this fixes the wireless charging problem, but it does not. At present, on Lollipop the phone does not fully charge via Qi. Only charges upto 69%.
Is there a way to root this version?
why is this version 2GB when most i see are ~1.3

Downgrade back to 6.0.1

Hi, new here with a little knowledge
Want to downgrade from 7.0 to 6.0.1 and believe I can do this using Odin, and have a version of 6.0.1 from sammobile.com.
my first attempt failed as sw check failed - device 5, binary 4.
So have downloaded a version binary 5 of 6.0.1 but this is BTU sw not the VOD version that's currently on the device.
I am a Voda UK customer with a locked device - can I load the BTU version on my device or does anyone know where I can find a binary v5 of the VOD 6.0.1 firmware?
thanks in advance.

You can flash BTU on to your device, however there's a chance Wi-Fi calling and voLTE will not work.
However the bad news... You can't downgrade once the bootloader has been updated. If you try it will fail, most likely at sboot.bin

Leave it like that for 10-20 minutes. It can take a while to boot up first time.

It most likely will be a 7.0 update. Just keep declining it. Don't install it. Turn off auto update. Set it to manual. Thank my posts that helped please with the thanks button ?
one last question - yes it is the 7.0 - so have said later to the install - is there any way i can delete the install files?

Im not too sure to be honest. I would say you will need root as the files will most likely be saved in /system
Is this even possible seen loads of guides online saying download 6.0.1 and Odin then flash but if the boot loader is for 7.0 it will fail can I 6.0 boot loader be flashed via Odin ? Anyone got a working guide my s6 edge keeps rebooting when it wants to on 7.0 need to get back to 6.0.1?

Read up this thread. The guy flashed 6.0.1 BTU over 7.0 and it worked fine without issue. If you download your firmware from http://updato.com it comes in 5 files. Then you can flash the 6.0.1 BL separately.

Yeah okay try that. It may work it may not. If it doesn't then try the UK BTU firmware. You need to flash 4 files. CP, BL, AP and CSC. Not the csc_home

What about CSC? I only see Home_CSC. I will try it as soon as possible. Thank you for uploading it
:good:Thanks for ROM it!!!
Nice work!!
thanks!
downloaded and installed. works flawlessly although I assumed it would wipe my data (running Batman 1.5) but it didnt and instead upgraded to Oreo without a single glitch while retaining all my data. will monitor over the next couple days to see if the "dirty flash" affects any functionality and battery life and revert.
EDIT: lost my root access as expected of course.
.I've also been with me in 10 minutes without any mistake, keeping the data 100%
