How to FORCE UPDATE your outdated Samsung Galaxy device - Smart Switch for PC

Hi, will this work on a note 8? I just need to update the operating system to Android 11. Also if it works will my phone change from 4G to 5G? Thanks.

great video , one question , why need a clear cache?

Thanks Bro!

Bro, I need your help. I am using a Samsung phone A51 5G, and I want to upgrade it firmware from oneeui 5.0 to 5.1

if i install android 14 beta on s23 ultra can i update by this to official release ?

This is a FAKE !!! My phone not receive any update and I need force him to get updates.
This video shows NOTHING !!!!!

Does it works for Samsung S21 Ultra 5G? I tried using your method but i could'nt find the software update (android 13) on the Smart Switch Windows. Btw my device is stuck on android 12 , One UI 4.0, any suggestion?

It will works on my samsung m51 ?

bro i have this old samsung j3 and its wifi isnt working i havent used it since like 2019 or sum not working i cant even force update it

I tried this and there was no option to update, but I'm stuck on Android 12 and can't get to Android 13 (S20 Ultra)

My s21 ultra is stuck on android 12..my friend has the android 13 on his, but mine says "your device is up to date" even when i use this method..any tips?

Still very relevant in 2023. Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite never updated since purchase in 2022. This solved the issue. Many thanks for sharing! You made me laugh out loud when you mentioned selling your soul while agreeing to the terms.

Hi, my device is rooted, will the method still work?

Will it work on an lenovo tablet (old tablet) ?

i love this guy😂😂😂😂

aslan benim, thank u for fixing my moms phone. very good video and easy to understand. god bless u!

This didnt help me. Followed your steps but im just not seeing and getting what you are

What if i don't have the original usb c & does this still work in 2023

I found some driver issues guide me i am unable to do this

So i tried this on my Note 10 plus SM-N975U that is still running android 10 in 2023. I've read somewhere about using Odin...but that sounds risky as heck for an untech savy person such as myself.

Unfort, this didnt work in my case, I own an Galaxy S20 ultra AT&T an I live in north Africa, using smart switch I got an update but it was an Android 11 when I SHOULD be getting the android 13, after the download and tried to manually check for update and it says"Software update interrupted" try again in 24h

Does is work with s23 ultra live demo phone? They said i cannot update it. They said i should update it manually . Thanks for reponse

Even this didn't work with my a52s 5g

thank you this helped me alot it worked

And most important when i systems update my carrier locked or not

Sir , i lose my data , and how much time to take and system download update size in gb plz tell me

failed to run firmware upgrade in pc

None of this is any secret.. All of that is just a standard/ default update procedure. Also, S20 is hardly an outdated phone

It didn't work for me It did not update my phone to the latest version of Android

2023 Update it worked! For Samsung C7 android 6.1

I followed all the steps but It didn't immediately update I had to go to settings and manually activate the update although it only received update till Android 8.1 is there any way I can update to latest Android or atleast Android 10?

Hey i have a Galaxy s21 fe and i didn't get one ui 5 so i want one ui 5 but i am scared to update it like this because i dont want to loser my data from my phone so is it safe and does ik work for the galaxy s21 fe and for software one ui 5?

Hello guys well can someone help me
I have an S20+ and it's on android 10 and when i tried to update it it says it's already up to date and when i tried smart switch it says it's on the latest version, can anyone help me please

It shows me FAILED TO RUN FIRMWARE UPGRADE . UNKNOWN ERROR OCCURED. After getting completed 15-25%

Hi i followed your every step but a notice keeps coming up saying failed to run firmware upgrade . Unknown error occurred. What should i do 😢, please help .

I did everything you said, I left it overnight, the next day it had reached 100% for the software download but it wouldn't go pass that. Even after I left it again for several hours. What do I do?

Does not work with S10 SM-G973U. I'm stuck on Android 11 with no security patches. Last update was in 2021.

I got this error can anyone help me "failed to run firmware upgrade. Unknown error occurred."

This is amazing! Would this work for the Samsung Galaxy View2? The large tablet? Support was discontinued for this product but it's an amazing tablet so I don't have the heart to 'let it go'...

I tried smart switch and it says my pc is missing something to install

Thinks sir

Wow! Thank you! I bought a tablet in 2014 and thought I lost a week later it in an internet cafe (I was heartbroken for months). Well... found it a few days ago in 2023 in my old room at my parent's house. It is brand new but it was probably running on Kitkat. Your guide worked perfectly! Thanks again!

Theres a glitch that has been patched for s9 and above. Can this method help me if i have s8?

Mine didn't works smart switch pop up a message saying doesn't support any firmware upgrade

Question, i'm in South America and i flashed (via odin) EUX ROM on my S23 plus.
I know that there is a new update, i will eventually get it via OTA, or i will never be able to get it as i'm not in Europe?

do I need to remove the sd card or back up any important data before starting the update?

Does the phone need to be connected to wifi? i can't really use my phone bc its' touch screen is unresponsive.. i've tried every solution on the internet except updating my phone to android 13.. it is my last resort (also factory reset)

Hi bredz,

I have an unlocked AT&T snapdragon phone i purchased brand new sealed today, I live in dubai.

If I do this update will it affect the unlocked network status of my phone or not? I just need to know the answer before i do this method. Please answer ill wait for it ☺️
