Android 9.0 Pie, the latest version of Google's operating system is now available globally for the Samsung Galaxy S9 and Galaxy S9 +. A few days ago the update began to roll out in some markets. From now on, all the terminals of the Galaxy S9 family will receive the update. Not sure how to download and install it on your device? We tell you the steps you must do next.
The easiest method to update your Galaxy S9 or S9 + is through the system settings, via OTA. To do this, we just have to go to the settings and enter the option that says 'system update'. Then press the center button. If the update is available, it will notify you with the news and the download will begin. If you have the automatic updates option activated, it will arrive once you are connected to a stable WI-FI network.
The update will likely take a few days to arrive. You can also try another way, although it is a bit more complicated. It consists of downloading the firmware and connecting your device through the Smart Switch available on your Windows or Mac computer. You can download the Android 9.0 Pie version for the Galaxy S9 and Galaxy S9 +. You just have to look for the country and the operator if you bought the terminal from a company.
Some safety tips before updating
This is a heavy update, so it is recommended to make a backup of your data. There are several ways to do it; through our Google account, or from Samsung's own services. It is also important to have internal storage available, as well as a battery of at least 50 percent, although you can leave the charger connected. The device will need to restart, do not turn it off or unplug it when the update is in progress.
Android 9.0 Pie for the Galaxy S9 and Galaxy S9 + arrives with One UI, a renewed more minimalist interface, with new themes and a new design in the applications. Now the settings are displayed in a neater way. You can see all the news about One UI here.
