Unexpected Reboots Forced Samsung to Halt Galaxy S8 Android Oreo Update

While Samsung had recently started the global rollout of the Android Oreo update for the Galaxy S8/S8+ devices, it decided to pull the plug on the OTA soon after, and had halted the update without any information. Thankfully, Samsung has responded at present regarding the reason for stopping the update.

As reported by Sammobile, Samsung claims to have stopped the Android Oreo update and remove the firmware files from the server due to many users reporting unexpected reboots after updating their handsets to Oreo. Samsung is now working on a new version of the update which should be out soon.

Following a limited number of cases where Galaxy S8 and S8+ devices have rebooted unexpectedly with the Android 8.0 Oreo, nosotros have temporarily stopped the rollout of the update. We are investigating the issue internally to ensure that the bear upon to the affected devices is minimized and the rollout of the update can resume as quickly every bit possible.

The beta programme for the Android Oreo update ran for a pretty long time (starting in Dec 2017). Equally such, nobody would have expected a screwed up Galaxy S8 Android Oreo release from Samsung. We accept a Samsung Galaxy S8 in our office which is running the official Android Oreo build. Luckily, nosotros haven't encountered whatsoever random reboots. Even so, as Samsung reports, not everyone is affected past this.

For users who have already update to the latest version and are afflicted by this botched update from Samsung, footling tin exist done. As of now, one can but wait till Samsung rolls out a stable build of the Android Oreo for the S8/S8+ devices.
