Samsung resumes its troubled One UI 7 rollout

Samsung is once again deploying its One UI 7 update to last year’s flagship Galaxy phones, with users worldwide reporting availability. The Android 15 update had begun rolling out earlier this month, only to pause for a week while Samsung rushed to patch a critical bug.

Android Authority reports that Galaxy S24 series, Z Fold 6, and Z Flip 6 owners around the world, including the US, have once again begun receiving the update to the latest version of Samsung’s mobile operating system. Using the CheckFirm app we’ve verified that the update is already available to T-Mobile users in the US, while SammyFans reports that Verizon is also issuing the update now.

One UI 7 began rolling out on April 7th, with the first US users getting the update three days later, but Samsung was forced to put a halt to the update program last week after a string of complaints from early updaters in South Korea who couldn’t unlock their phones. Samsung never officially confirmed the bug, but did acknowledge that the One UI 7 schedule was “being updated to ensure the best possible experience.”

Samsung’s take on Android 15 was already later than expected, with developer access to the Google OS beginning in September 2024. While the Galaxy S25 phones and the latest Galaxy A-series models shipped with One UI 7, it’s taken until this month for older phones to receive the update. The next devices scheduled to receive it include the S23 series, the S24 FE and S23 FE, the Fold 5 and Flip 5, and the Tab S10 and Tab S9 lines.
