I have a factory unlocked Note 8 on sprint and I can't get it to update through SmartSwitch. I got a few errors downloading but when it was done downloading it gets stuck on the downloading to phone screen at %0 and no matter how many times I have tried today it just won't finish.

Is there something I am doing wrong? Manually trying to update VIA the android Securty Update option doesn't return any updates.

Frustrating. Maybe older SmartSwitch software will work? Any links to the previous versions?

I had the same problem a couple of days ago. I uninstalled smart switch from my PC and reinstalled then it worked fine.

I just tried it again and it updated. Maybe it was bad firmware?

@JimKar I believe that is what solved my issue. Can't tell for sure but it finally worked. Sometimes the software is buggy and a reinstall fixes any issues. Cheers
