Samsung is now rolling out the stable One UI 2.0 update to the Galaxy Note 9 smartphones. The latest version of One UI is based on Android 10 and brings the latest features, enhancements and UI changes to Samsung smartphones.

Samsung now starts to send the stable One UI 2.0 version and if you want to install this update on your Galaxy Note 9, please follow our guide below.

Before you proceed to the instructions:

Back up your important data.

Use the original Samsung USB cable came.

Install Samsung Smart Switch before flashing, it automatically installs the latest Samsung USB drivers. However, make sure Smart Switch is CLOSED when you are flashing your device with Odin.

Try not to have too many other applications running if you have a PC with low RAM as Odin can consume a lot of memory sometimes, and the last thing you need is for your PC to freeze in the middle of a flash.

There are three two main steps and their respective substeps to download and install the latest firmware.

Download and extract the firmware via the Frija firmware tool. Install the firmware via Odin, firmware installer.

1. Download Firmware:

1. Download and extract the Frija firmware tool (from here).

2. Choose your Model for respective Galaxy Note 9:

3. Use CSC code “DBT”.

3. The Auto mode will detect your Model and CSC and find all the required information directly from Samsung Server.

4. Click “Check Update” and then click “Download” to download the firmware.

CSC_OXM (OXM CSC file, will wipe your phone)

HOME_CSC_OXM (OXM CSC file, will NOT wipe your phone)

3. Add each file to its respective field in Odin v3.13.1. Use CSC_OXM if you want to do a clean flash and HOME_CSC OXM if you want to keep your apps and data.

4. Reboot your phone in Download / Odin mode:

-Connect the cable to your PC, but do not plug it into your phone yet
