Unlocked note 9 pie beta live

Ok I installed the beta and it seems ok but I uninstalled it cause I can't connect my Galaxy Watch.

Dont deregister, As can go back again maybe in later builds and maybe the watch would be fixed
 
My Verizon Note 9 shows as SM-N960U, so am I out of luck? I thought Verizon phones are all unlocked...
 
What happens after you register? I click the register button then it goes to the terms and conditions they I hit register again and it goes straight back to the Samsung + home screen again. I did it several times and I have not received the update. Is there more to the registration process?
 
Yeah, that's what I saw in this thread. Does Verizon no longer sell unlocked phones, or do they sell both? I'm definitely confused, since the S7 I just upgraded from was unlocked.

As far as I know Verizon SM-960U is sim unlocked . But is tied to Verizon to get updates as its consider carrier model.

The SM-N60U1 is factory unlocked gets its update from Samsung /cleaner no carrier app's preinstalled

Ah, OK. So, as far as this beta is concerned, Verizon phones are not eligible then, right?
I just got off the phone with Verizon and they assured me I can move the phone to another carrier if I chose - so it's unlocked that way.
I guess I'll just have to wait for the update in January...

Yeah at this time no carrier can get in , as for sim you should be able to use any .

Just went into smart switch again. Gives no option for this. Just ask if I want to transfer from another phone and the option to use a cord or wireless transfer.

Even Samsung plus app acts up. I really hate this and want it off my device!

You need to use smart switch on the pc and connect your phone to it, not the smart switch app on the phone. Once you connect your phone to the PC, it will detect the software and offers you the option to downgrade to a previous version.

It will also allow you to backup your device to your computer, which I highly recommend before downgrading, just in case.

Have you noticed many bugs in the beta? Any app's not working?

  • Samsung Plus app freezes
  • Touchdown HD email app does not work
  • Battery just ok at this point - hopefully it will improve
  • No Themes download but if you had themes downloaded from Oreo, they will work and you can apply them.
  • No Goodlock
  • Maybe it's just me but the camera app seems a bit better based on what I Noticed like the blurring effect in live focus. Again it could just be me.

Noticed that I have to get used to having having all the selection menu options at the bottom. So used to going to the top that having to make adjustments but eventually it will happen :)
