When is Verizon going to update the note9

[Android Central Question]

I have Verizon note9 and would like to know when they plan on updating to pie9

 

[Rukbat]

Only their developers know. (And if one of them gave you an expected date, he'd be an ex-developer."

This is the million dollar question that nobody has an answer for.

I picture one dude sitting at a computer reading all these forums laughing cause all he has to do is hit enter and the update goes live. If most of us already updated to one UI with the sd card trick how hard can it really be Verizon. I bet Samsung gave them the update months ago lol

The problem is yes Verizon is late but they doing testing with the pie build see how well it runs on their network which Samsung can't do but only supply the base firmware and let carriers test them out if any issues rise.

The delays drive me crazy with Samsung phones and particular Verizon, but I keep forcing myself to stick with this phone as I'll surely regret switching due to software updates. But convincing myself to stick with it is becoming substantially harder.

I'll surely regret switching due to software updates.

I used to be a confirmed Samsung user (since the days that they first put a camera in a cellphone), but updates? Get a Pixel 3 (or Pixel 3XL). You can pretty much set your calendar by the availability of the updates (the first Monday of the month). And that's for 3 years, not 2. (The fact that they have the best camera in the industry doesn't hurt either.)

Not today, I've check 10 times already.

When you stop checking and forget about it, it will update at like 3 am lol. That's what happens to me

Save yourself the frustration and just sideload it.

Save yourself the frustration and just sideload it.

That's what I did. Only issue I had see far was Bluetooth items had to be unpaired and repaired. Love the gesture swipe feature for navigation bar.

Waiting on Verizon is not necessary this time.

The Note 9 uses the micro SD card correct?

After sideloading I'm no longer getting Verizon security updates?

What did you sideload?
I sideloaded the correct, current VZW version, and did receive the security update.

 

[Jake R]

Apologize for the delayed response. I sideloaded N960USQU1ARL1.

 

[Jake R]

What did you sideload?
I sideloaded the correct, current VZW version, and did receive the security update.

I went to the https://firmware.science page and side loaded it from there. I must have done something wrong if I'm not getting the security updates?
