hello everyone, I thought that samsumg sent updates at the same time to everyone, but my surprise is greater when I see that Europe has updates and not in Latin America, my question is then what can I expect with this, that is, will I have updates every three months? I understand that if I change the firmware there may be some regions where it is faster, but then I lose functions like volte and vowifi? It's my first Samsung, I'm waiting for an answer for dummies since I don't know anything, thanks

Updates are staged from region to region, just in case there is a major problem with the update so that it does not affect every region to which the update is delivered to. Furthermore, if one's phone is through a carrier, the delivery of that update will be delayed in order for the carrier to tailor it to their network (normally just a week or two these days).

Hello, thank you for your answer, the device is free, it is not an operator, it has the region and continuation of my country, that is, could I expect it to take two weeks to receive the update? It's just that I heard from people who said that it took up to two months to receive an update, is that false?
I'm in the USA and have not gotten the update either, i wouldn't worry to much it will drop soon.

South Korea gets the update 1st. Then it's sent out to other countries but even if it was sent to your country, your carrier may delay the update for any reason. Samsung is better with updates but expect 1-2 months per update for devices 1-3 years old. Devices older than that I'm not sure.
I'm in the USA and I was getting 1 update almost every month on my S22U around 1 week after it was received in Europe.
(I received the February update yesterday about 1 week after it was received in Europe)
Got mine today in USA for Unlocked
Got it today too on unlocked running two MVNOs, Boost Infinite (AT&T) and Tello (T-Mobile). I was amazed how quickly the update was done too lol

Late, but finally update 12070 has arrived on the Lumia 800 for Orange/T-Mobile users, so start updating and if you're on the Singapore FW, I suggest you recover from backup and update.
Stupid Orange/T-Mobile, always late.
Still no update
Still no update for me
I have an unbranded Lumia 800 cyan from Phones4U on Orange but no update available in Zune despite Nokia Europe saying that it's available for my model (059M539 Country Variant). I swapped my Orange sim for a Vodafone sim to see if that did anything. . . nothing. recovered a backup in Zune and updated the OS again, but still no Firmware update to 12070.
If it doesn't come soon I'll take it to Nokia Care next time we're in Glasgow as this battery life is terrible (although seemed slightly better on the Vodafone sim!)
I didn't really want to start looking at the other methods I've seen of updating Just wanted to get it officially in Zune!
On searching the issue, I've seen a lot of users of 059M539 code have also not been getting the upgrade.
Same here, same model nr. Cyan Lumia from Phones4U, Orange Sim, also from Glasgow.
Oddly enough I have the latest OS version, just not the latest firmware version. Now that the volume bug is fixed I'm tempted to force a flash bypassing Zune.

Cyan models are delayed for some reason, but it should have arrived by now. Get in contact with Phones4U, see if they have any dates, since it is a batch of theirs.
Got sick of waiting so I used the update tool
Initial findings, it has improved the battery, can easily get a full day even with quite a lot of use!

I've never heard of retailers blocking updates before? However, it does seem possible as I'm seeing several reports of that specific product no not updating. Note that Nokia specifically lists it as having an update available since pretty much day 1 of the firmware being made public. I've posted a query on P4U's forum. Should have known better than to buy from those muppets, but they were the only ones at the time that had the cyans. Someone I know wants the white Lumia 710, but it's another P4U exclusive
mlaidlaw, did you update directly to 12072 with the volume bug fix, or still 12070?

I actually updated to 12070 first, then realised I could also upgrade to 12072, so used the same process again and now have 12072 working fine.

Yep, I mocking how the blue plastic makes my phone somehow ineligible for software updates.
On a more serious query, does having an Orange Sim in my unbranded model phone mean that Orange still has to approve my firmware versions? I'd assume that Carriers only have a say over their branded variants?
I'm still baffled how a specific subset of a particular product code (a product code that has had the upgrade available from the day of announcement according to the Nokia sit) is being left behind? Apple really does get some things right, not letting the Carriers dictate software updates.

No, if you have unbranded you can get the updates for unbranded devices
Yes, Nokia pushed the update, but Orange (one step further) blocked it again It's possible... Unfortunately.
Hi, I have a i9300 (international) S3, , and I wanted to flash the official 4.1 by Kies or OTA, since it's been released some days ago. I see a lot of people getting the Oficial update via Kies (not the Odin method with Poland rom), in the Interantional, the same as me. Might it be that Kies or Samsung doesnt let the update here yet despite it being international (Being even that this phone ISNT from Argentina, it's the international version bought in America I think, or Europe)?
It's not release yet for your country.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
Thanks for quick response.
So it's basicaly being "blocked" because the location of my IP, right? Doing some VPN crap could trick that? (asking so I don't waste my time, I know how to do it).
Do you know if in United States the International verison has the update via Kies?

no its being blocked by your devices csc. good day
? Mhm... but I didn't buy it in Argentina, and it's the International version bought directly without carrier and unlocked... what makes then this phone different in CSC to others phones also international and same exact things being updated perfectly then?
It's not release for almost any device. You'll see the update hiting europe in october, and probably other areas too.

LG4 (TPA) ... i dont know what regon that is ..
It seems that It's a bought in Panama, with I9300UWHCLG4 ... it's gonna be a loong time I guess till I have official JB. Dang.
est_cap
At the moment it's largely irrelevant where your phone was bought. JB has only been released on an extremely limited basis - Poland and a smattering of networks in a few countries (though I've seen no one talk about these countries on here). There is no IP blocking. JB just isn't here. And if people are claiming that they're getting JB from Kies, they're lying unless they have Polish phones.
Some Canadian users are really getting it, it's just fact of time that we recive our update, this is the news. http://www.gamenguide.com/articles/...y-experia-x-performance-gets-update-7-1-1.htm
Has anyone gotten ahold of the OTA file yet? I;d love to flash it on my Moto G...
Nothing on T-mobile USA for my XT1625
I read that as the moto in India and the xperia in Canada
Exactly, which isn't new news at all.
Nothing for XT1622 in Finland so far (Telefinland/Sonera).
Seems to be rolling out in India.

I think they got it all wrong. The guy asking the question tweeted with the hashtag AndroidO. So supposedly he meant the next version of Android, the one after Nougat?
And then the Moto-team didn't get it at all either and replied if he meant Android 7 (Nougat)...
And gsmarena happily reports this news and doesn't even mention that. Oh well.
Another G4 waiting. I've bought it recently just because it's one of the cheapest good smartphone with N coming.
it popped up on my phone on the first startup, and i canceled it about 5 hours ago. I was rooting it. it doesn't pop up anymore. I just got my phone this morning from ebay.

If it rolls out in february, it must be 7.1.1. If it's not, it will be a disappointment, seriously, this is a joke.
Spoiler: At the end of february, update posponed to march, then to april, etc...

ROTLMAO!! :laugh:
Anybody receive the May security update? I had been getting regular updates from Samsung, quite early in the month. Impressive actually. Haven't received the May update yet, so I'm curious if others have.
I have the unlocked version, but using it on the AT&T network.
TIA
Just got the OTA update. I'm surprised it's this late, considering all other OTA updates are usually within the first week of the month.
I've got an unlocked S23 Ultra, S918U1, currently running on Google Fi. Will probably be switching to US Mobile's Verizon plan soon tho. I'm wondering what my best options are for keeping the device updated. It's still on May but maybe too early to worry about the June update? But I can get a little impatient sometimes and I'm not sure how updates tend to go with MNVOs.
So I guess I'm wondering about: Smart Switch, changing CSC, and Odin. Any tips for keeping this device promptly updated?
Use Odin. Changing CSC shouldn't matter too much although it might cause problems if you don't wipe data. It's been a while since I've dealt with Samsung.
As far as getting ahold of the firmware in the first place I believe Frija is your best option, although I don't know whether Samsung makes their updates publicly available at the same time they push OTAs.

Thank you for the response. I will check out Frija, also the Sam Mobile app seems to list firmwares, but no June release for U1 yet. I guess I might end up just flashing firmwares with Odin. Thanks again!

Just make sure that you pay attention to which CSC file you use. The HOME_CSC.tar is for an update preserving user data. The CSC.tar will wipe data.

If you bought it as an unlocked phone...and it isn't network (carrier) branded...you'll get the updates more quickly anyway.
The U1 version usually gets the updates about two weeks after Korea does...and only one week after we in Europe do.
FYI....if you device is unbranded...it doesn't matter what carrier your SIM is. The updates are independent of the carrier.

Oh, thanks for the information, I do have an unbranded US U1 model, so maybe I'll be able to just wait for the updates to come OTA. That would be the easiest of course. And thanks for the info about the timeline, I see that the June updates for many models seem to be up on Sam Mobile as of today, so hopefully another week or two for me

Yep, and the U/U1 firmware is interchangeable, but if you don't want carrier bloat, go with U1

As I understand..is was rolled out a few days ago...and it is slowly released across the range. For example...it took a few days for me to get it here in Europe after it was officially released. My guess is...a few more days and you'll be golden.

He is already on U1...so is already bloat free. He can't root it...so he may as well just wait for the update. My guess is....3 to 4 more days.
