Question Monthly "security patch": - Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3

Has anyone received the latest security patch? Mine still says July 1.

I have not. I have the XAA model of the fold 3. I think the only country that received it officially (outside of frija) has been Australia.
I've been waiting too

I have the 512gb version and it came with F926USQU1AUG9 out of the box, but July security patch..............would think we would have an update by now.

Yeah, don't hold your breath. If you are looking to get the fastest updates, then go with a Pixel Phone. Otherwise, you have to wait for not only the MFG to get it working and approved, you have to get the carriers to give their stamps. That is why these updates are anywhere from Weeks to MONTHS behind. Especially on new or "edge" devices that do not have as high of a user base as these Folding phones do.
Just a fact of life and the same at the 3 carriers I have worked for (corporate, not retail).

Understood. Yeah, Pixel phones are great with always having the latest. My son had a Pixel before I got him the S21, and he always had the latest OS.

any phone i had so far skipped usually 3 months of security patches

Still on July security one too.

Australia hasn't received ****.
I don't know why Sammobile claimed Australia got the update.
The firmware they linked too wasn't an Australian CSC either.
Seems only UAE for an update.

I had a Fold 2 and S21. Security updates was 100% correct. Months after month. It was a DE region with always first updates for all over the world. So now I have DE Fold3 and it stands on Juli. 3 months without sec. update. Im curious.

I have noticed (at least here in the US) that it takes a bit longer to get the ball rolling on new devices.
Who knows, we should get a cumulative update in the end to bring us all current.

VZW might take longer to distribute?

Very untrue. My S21ULTRA has gotten monthly updates as quick as the the pixel. There's definitely something up with the snapdragon fold3. Being behind 2 mos, there's definitely something wrong.

Australian CSC's are
XSA, OPS, TEL, VAU.
The firmware Sammobile claimed to be rolling out down here is listed as unknown with a CSC of UEX.

It took a while, but it's already here.
Tuesday, September 28 and OTA in Spain for the F926B / DS model
F926BXXU1AUI4
F926BOXM1AUI4
F926BXXU1AUHD
839 mb, The date of the security patch goes from July 1 to September 1 (two days before entering October)
Via OTA, it still doesn't even appear in SamMobile, much less the changelog
It seems that Samsung finally skipped the "AUHF" version; F926BXXU1AUHF F926BOXM1AUHF F926BXXU1AUHD And I go directly to this AUI4 OTA from Tuesday, September 28, 2021
And the version is DS Dual SIM and with CsC EuX
Hopefully, this delay is punctual and not a rule from now on
Samsung is seen to have had some kind of problem with the update of this device, because here is the first OTA that arrives and that in the server I hung up to two more versions without releasing via OTA that should not be very good

Hoping for the U1 (XAA) update soon

Haven't got any ONE UI Update - Galaxy S9 G960W

Hi, i have a US/Canada S9 Model SM G960W with SD845 and its an unlocked device from a carrier on contract (BELL Network). I have not received any official ONE UI update and today is 28th January 2019! I want to ask you all expert what should I do?
They changed the schedule for the update
Sorry but that's not the case. Every other youtuber has uploaded videos with their official updates. Even they are putting videos of Note 8 official uldate now. And here I'm stuck with Oreo

It hasn't rolled out to all regions and models yet, your current model latest update is still Oreo, nothing you can do but wait for Samung/Bell

The international s9's have pie now, you'll have to wait till feb 11th to receive it in canada, that's when rogers is rolling it out.
Got my update this morning. And I am in Michigan. Still trying everything out
Same man. I have s9+ W variant and i'm exhausted of waiting so long for the new updates. Its like samsung doesn't care about its Canadian users... Considering getting a Oneplus or a Pixel as my next device.
The test xml feed has changed a few times lately

Nothing to do with Canada, no unlocked phones in the US have it and it's still rolling out to the carrier models.
I have a carrier phone( unlocked) in Canada but haven't received any update.
It's not instant and they don't release these updates to every phone on every carrier at the same time. The entire system would be inundated if they did. If you see reports that people on your carrier are getting the update then wait a week or so before you get concerned.

U sure about that. I still feel as if Canadians get left out. We didn't even get a chance at getting the beta for pie while the rest of the world did.

I have the unlocked us model but nothing. It's infuriating how slow Samsung is
Just wait, both me and wife got our updates a week ago. And I know some note 9's are getting there's as well here in Michigan
Rogers and fido updated their release schedule, we'll now get pie February 4th ?

Yep, I've, I've been on the beta since the beginning and even Samsung admits that unlocked phones get it last, it's the way Samsung has always done it. A lot of rhe carrier models are still waiting. In a way it makes sense, in the US at least, only a small percentage of the S9's are unlocked models. Samsung is going to take care of their cash cows first.

Well, if that is true, then Canada is screwed forever as ALL phones sold in Canada have had to be unlocked since 2017.

There is no unlocked model in canada like in the us, they have their own U model, those are the unlucky ones, all canadian phones are W models.

How does Samsung OTA updates work?

So I bought an A50 on amazon, and it turns out the CSC is TPA -- Panama.
But I'm in Canada on a Canadian carrier. I read somewhere (can't find the source anymore) that OTA updates will only roll out to the phone if it's in its home carrier. Is that true? Because if so, then that means I'll never get an OTA and I might as well flash to something else (which I've been trying to avoid as much as I can).
And for that matter, what device version are the current A50 in Canada? I tried looking up the version code on the demo units at the local mobile store and the version code is listen A505X which, AFAIK, is a demo version.
Ahh -- I read this whole CSC geolocation thing here: https://www.phoneweek.co.uk/samsung-csc-codes-list-how-to-change-csc-on-samsung-devices/
I'm a newb with Samsung, coming from a Oneplus X as my previous phone...which feels much less restricted in terms of modifiability!

Yes, Samsung is a lot much hard to deal with stock flashing/updates so they release sometimes 10 and many more versions focussed on modem/radio compatibility and One Plus only has a model or two that comes with HydrogenOs or OxygenOs based on the region that is sold.
Updates don´t depend specifically on your home carrier but in the CSC that is linked with firmware, it´s mean that you can wait for an update based on TPA firmware. They only depend on home carrier when they´re devices under contract of a carrier as happens with snapdragon US versions.
Welp...received the OTA update for TPA on my phone, despite being in Canada. As others have pointed out, the updates still roll out even though I'm not geographically within TPA

I'm sure you can download your CSC if the model matches on Sammobile in your region, then use odin to flash

General Another update

Just got another update (2nd in a week)....
appears to be a small incremental update. info page till points to previous update.
F926U1UES1AUI5
Unlocked on AT&T.
Looks like it is just the October security patch. I haven't received anything on my T-Mobile branded one.
Same here, not for T-Mobile yet.
just checked i have september version, this looks indeed like the oktober security patch.
have the 926B EUX version, think somewhere this week it will arrive
Yeah, Updates roll out on unlocked and it will normally take a few days before the carrier branded ones get the update. It all depends on how long the carriers hold it before releasing it out to the wild. I anticipate that the branded ones will go out either end of the week or early next week.
That is, if trends hold.
I got this update on VZW.
Unlocked on the t mobile
received it
unlocked - using UK SIM ATM but it's here
T-Mobile, no update yet.

It's been said for a few times already that only the USA & Canada got the official rollout, rest of the world will have to wait until the December update.
On top of that, Google always does time-shift rollouts, meaning even if you are in the right region, it can still take up to 7 or 10 days until you get it.

It's super easy to tell if an update is just a security update.
Look at the last SIX characters of the build number. If it starts with S it's a security update. If it starts with U, then a feature was added or updated.
Today the January update came in for F926B EUY ...
By the way, Google play systemupdate December came last night.
Samsung seems to update the Z Fold3 as expected ...
T-Mobile here, just got the January update.
Fold ³ UK Unlocked.
Still on December Update.
Just got it in the UK this morning, unlocked.
Fold 3, Germany, unlocked - just got the update.
Germany, unlocked, also got it this morning
So what's with the update that we (T-Mobile) received during the night? It still has the January security patch, not Feb.
Not sure what was updated.
F926USQU1BVAC

Just now receiving this on mine, but it does indeed have February 1 listed for security patch level. 1098.02MB update.
Mine still says January after the update, weird.
Nothing from Verizon...
I think one thing that is different, no longer see the "5GUC" at the top for ultra capacity...................used to see that prior but not anymore.
Okay, it's March 7th, no signs of February security patch? T-Mobile.
