Original post: Samsung is currently rolling out Android 9.0 Pie for the the Galaxy S9 and S9 Plus. Following the first beta build CRI5, we now have the second Beta available for download with firmware build numbersย G960USQU3CRI7 & G965USQU3CRI7 for Galaxy S9 and S9 Plus respectively. This new OTA update brings many new bug fixes and working features. Most importantly, it brings a solution to the ugly looking white UI content with black background. So download and install the latest Samsung Experience 10 Beta 2 (CRI7) based on Android 9.0 Pie for the Galaxy S9 and S9 Plus.

This new update brings a solution to the ugly looking notifications UI. The notification color along with the quick settings panel now adapts to the wallpaper color you have set. This makes the UI look more pleasing. Another stunning feature is that the Night Mode works. The settings UI along with other components now turn dark with a black background.

Here is a video featuring the new working features that come with Samsung One UI:

Samsung Experience 10 features all theย Android Pie goodies such as Adaptive Battery, Adaptive Brightness, Slice, Actions, new swipe gestures like the Google Pixel phones, and much more. Though Samsung has its own gesture controls called Edge Gestures introduced withย Good Lock 2018โ€˜s plugin called One Hand Operations +, a native swipe gesture is an added bonus. Most importantly when it comes toย the overview mode (formerly known as recent apps panel). You can select any kind of text in the overview mode.

Note that Samsung Experience 10 is currently in testing state, meaning you will most certainly encounter bugs. Moreover, the firmware is onlyย available for United States region with Snapdragon variants of Galaxy S9 (SM-G960U/U1) and S9 Plus (SM-G965U/U1).
