Get all the news regarding software updates for the Galaxy S8 Active handsets on this page, for all variants at AT&T, T-Mobile, and Sprint. Accordingly, the page is divided into sections, as per the carrier, each having a table listing the latest software version and its changelog. Samsung’s Android 9 Pie update is now available for the S8 Active and you can even download the update now using the link provided in the table below. But what about Android 10, let’s discuss.

Will Samsung Galaxy S8 Active get Android 10

The S8 Active set at T-Mobile or anywhere is not eligible for Android 10. So, the Pie update is the last big update you can expect for your S8 Active, and we don’t think Samsung will be interested in giving you any of the One UI 2.0 features without Android 10, although they might give you an ability to use QR code for joining a Wi-Fi network or sharing the password of a Wi-Fi network, a feature that Google added to Android 10.

How to get Android 10 on Samsung Galaxy S8 Active

Given Samsung won’t prepare an Android 10 update for the device, there is no way to get a proper it on your S8 Active. However, there is a slim chance you may still get Android 10 on your S8 Active.

Given the great aftermarket software development that Android OS enjoys, it’s possible that a developer or team of developers is able to create a ROM based on Android 10 OS for the S8 Active. But let’s discuss more on S8 Active Android 10 ROMs below, and what are the chances of that happening.

Android 10 ROMs for S8 Active

That said, to be fair, we cannot be sure of an Android 10 ROM becoming available for the S8 Active. And even if it does, it may be very buggy, most probably not suitable for daily use. That’s because as things stand right now, even when the device is quite old now, there is not a great support for the S8 Active. There are no good Android 9 Pie ROMs available, either.

So, chances are less of a good Android 10 ROM will becoming available for the S8 Active.
