I won version f-926n can't receive push.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] exocetdj:
I'm really hoping someone can confirm that camera still works on bootloader unlock with stable a12
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] ronaldheld:
Will Verizon be the last to get it in the US?
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] Jake.S:
No one here can answer that. Only Verizon can answer it if they now even want too
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] ronaldheld:
True but they would have no inclination to do so.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] t3ch187:
I'm hoping the U1 US unlocked model comes early in the process.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] OJsakila:
Well, I'm on AT&T so I'm sure I'll be last. grr...
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] ronaldheld:
I am still guessing VZW will be last. Never been on AT&T.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] Art Vandelay:
I've been outta the game for a while, but can't we just download the firmware if the push hasn't come through yet?

Edit - just checked SamMobile and the image isn't posted.

Samsung bricked Fold 3 & Flip 3 in official One UI 4 update, postponed

Samsung Suspends Fold 3 & Flip 3 One UI 4 Rollout (Update: Fixed & Resumed) - TizenHelp

Update (Dec 16): We all know last week Samsung has delivered faulty firmware for its new foldable phones. The One UI 4 software brick many devices and also created many issues on the phones. After that, Samsung had suspended the official rollout and conduct another beta testing for Galaxy Z Fold...

www.tizenhelp.com
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] Jake.S:
It seems only few folds and flips being bricked. Not all of them
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] fonix232:
This must be the issue my source couldn't identify precisely. Looks like Samsung still hasn't managed to fix this -.- Same **** went down with the Note 8 when it got its first major Android update. Guess we'll get the final proper update between Christmas and NYE.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] Talderon:
Yeah, this update is BAAAAAAAAAAD sauce. I will wait until they fix things. :D
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] Jake.S:
Samsung has temporarily stopped the release of update. So you don't have to worry, once they fixed it then they will continue to release it again.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] cpufrost:
So now mid January. ;-)
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] Jake.S:
Well if samsung is fast enough they will hopefully have it fixed soon so the roll out can resume and so we can get the update in December and not January. Since their list does show planned release for fold 3 and flip 3 is december 2021.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] Markeee:
Waiting Sucks
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] Nastrahl:
Are they real issues though?

At every updates they some unknown random people have reported imaginary issues like the stock SMS app sending gallery's picture randomly that never got proven.

Also, how many of them made unsupported changes that would obviously brick the phone like uninstalling or blocking in some way system apps then complains when something goes wrong?

It's obvious that one's need to revert back some custom doings on their phone prior doing a major update especially when it comes to change system settings like the adaptive refresh rate.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] dirtybudha:
Likely will be a bit longer on rolling out 12. And yes, apparently the issues are stacking up to be problems as a whole.

Android 12 update for Galaxy Z Fold 3 and Flip 3 seem to be riddled w/ issues for some users

Samsung's Galaxy Z Fold 3 and Galaxy Z Flip 3 is getting Android 12 now, but the rollout may be paused due to some early issues.

9to5google.com
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] fonix232:
Nope, Samsung is generally fast with these last minute bugfixes. Last time this happened with the Note 8, the fix rolled out within two weeks.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] cpufrost:
Right, we're nearly the middle of December with no ETA. Early Jan is pretty much a best wish at this point.

No hurry especially if they are bricking phones. No one wants or needs that nonsense.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] Mr. Orange 645:
Typically U1 models come last in the update process. Once all the major US Carriers have the update, it will be released to the U1 models.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] fastfed:
never been a update junky, everyone thinks updates gives things the phone previously didn't have, sometimes updates makes things worse.

that said ,what new features does 12 bring? and why did they stop naming it deserts,
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] OJsakila:
VERY disappointed to see this. I hold fast in my faith with Samsung, however. But this doesnt appear to be a good sign. Isn't THIS WHY there are multiple betas???
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] Nastrahl:
Yeah that's also why i doubt the truthfulness of the information.

The update is probably delayed to check that.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] badazzbubbanc:
That's why you buy unlocked
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] dirtybudha:
It very much could be Google as well, the Pixel update has had issues.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] m_w_clarke:
As a embedded software developer for a medical company, I have to say that sometimes bugs do get through the alpha, beta and release phase. The engineers in Samsung will be beating themselves up about this, trust me! Me and my team do this when there is a quality escape that we have to do a very fast bug fix turnaround. They will be pulling long days and nights on this I can imagine Have faith and patience.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] Talderon:
This is my life as well.

Although, I have the added honor to be:

DevOps Architect

Release Manager

Incident Manager

So, when releases go south for me, well, I get it from all angles. :(
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] m_w_clarke:
I hear you brother.

Configuration manager and Lead Software Test Architect here....
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] Talderon:
Ugh, so yeah, you really get it. :D
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] fonix232:
It's most likely not even a bug, but just like how MS Teams screwed over Google's software so much that Pixel phones couldn't dial 911, it is most likely a third party app (or apps) affecting the update, causing the issue.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] Talderon:
At this point, it's all speculation on what caused it. Could be anything at this point. :(
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] m_w_clarke:
The fact that oneplus have also pulled their a12 update could mean there is some underlying Google compatibility issues.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] klemen241:
So the beta works fine, and stable doesnt. How is that even possible lol
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] Techvir:
It's the bug fix that is the mother of another bug
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] fonix232:
True, but the fact that it apparently only affects a handful of devices (update rolled out to thousands of people on the first day, reports came from a handful of people about issues) makes me think that it's not an inherent issue of the update, but one of those typical Android shenanigans where an app can't migrate properly to the new OS, causes some system level issue during the upgrade, and bam, you got a brick/bootloop. Even back in the Note8 days, a factory reset fixed the issue, and I'm fairly certain it would in this case too.

The beta was distributed to considerably less people than the final version. And most people who enrolled in it, or sideloaded it, have the technical savvy to recognise a boot issue, and try a factory reset, or even a full ODIN flash, before crying wolf. Also, a beta is expected to have issues, so people are more dismissive about it, the most you'll see is a comment or two about not being able to boot, and the person taking the initiative to resolve it on their own. They might not even report it at all.

However, production releases can not have these issues. Your average person does not want to reinstall everything (and Android's backup system is still terrible - iOS will pull everything back from the backup, with the exception of some app logins like banking/payment, with minimal user interaction needed, Android to date can't do this), or to possibly lose their data (the amount of people who don't back their **** up is astonishingly high).
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] fcvdeeef:
we still waiting
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] sakooma:
youre going to be waiting a while, maybe another 2 weeks or so, since the stable release was soft bricking phones, if you want you can flash the latest beta till the new stable release comes out
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] SamsungKing10:
there is a 4th beta to fix the issues in the stable release
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] ButterflyFlutterflyMyOhMy:
Anyone know if this will fix the problem with the cell not roaming/blipping into Emergency Calls Only for a second and back often (and dropping calls)?
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] ronaldheld:
Are we late for a security bug fix update due to the Android 12 delay?
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] Jake.S:
December security patch is included in android 12 update. So once we get that update we will be patched to latest security fix.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] Markeee:
I bet ya it will be out by next week
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] Jake.S:
Maybe, since samsung had to pause the release due to critical issues. So only korea received the update so far and now korea received new update that is final again. So let's see how stable it is this time, if it's stable enough samsung will push same update to rest of fold 3.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] Markeee:
My prediction based on a feeling is by Wednesday the latest :)
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] bigfire:
Fyi, I just downloaded it on AT&T.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] strikeIII:
Nothing yet, unlocked on AT&T.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] cpufrost:
Today is the last day of December and as of today there is no update for SM-F926U1 devices. January security update is being pushed to other Samsung devices. To still be on November on a flagship is rather absurd. But there it is.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] dave5777:
Screenshot with baseband?
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] bigfire:
Here you go.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] d.cortez:
i had to move the date to 1/7/22 to start the AT&T update download. sadly, there's no option for dual sim using an eSim and nano Sim.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] pieces of cake:
No sign of the update for T-Mobile yet.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] sakooma:
So it's as simple as just changing the date in the settings?
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] dave5777:
And we're boned!
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] d.cortez:
Yes, for me it was that simple; change the date forward (e.g., 1.7.2022), let the download start, then change the date back to automatic.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] m_w_clarke:
Didn't work for me in the UK with unlocked phone.

Ironically, I got my phone earlier than committed at the pre order stage as a "surprise" from Samsung. 🤷
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] Jake.S:
I doubt changing the date will download update. Update has probably been pushed days before and all you did is fool the device to refresh so it updates cache and downloads update. But if update itself hasn't been released by AT&T or w.e it was then update won't be found even by changing the date.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] d.cortez:
Yes, I fooled the device and downloaded the update. 😉 So, the date trick worked for me. 👍
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] skally:
Correlation does not imply causation...
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] d.cortez:
Agree, lol. Just reporting my observation where my action A (changing the date forward) caused outcome B (start an OTA download). 👍
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] zapote21:
Once we get anyone in the US with One UI 4, I really need to know if Esim is enabled.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] d.cortez:
No eSim support on my AT&T Fold3.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] Jake.S:
You know that carriers in US must support eSIM first before it can be activated in OS? It isn't OS depended. It is mostly carrier depended.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] Markeee:
Plenty of carriers in the US already support it that's not the problem problem is Samsung is deliberately disabling it in the US. Pretty obvious why to try and force people to buy 2 phones instead of one amounts to BIG $$$

My carrier Xfinity mobile don't support it but if Samsung would stop ****ing around and enable it I could keep my normal sim plan with Xfinity and for $15 a month add the esim with T-Mobile connect problem solved

This whole 4.0 release has been painfully slow. If Samsung don't enable esim need to take a hit dump this whole Fold mess and move on to something that does

Samsung Blows
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] Jake.S:
Well I read some where else that carriers in US does not support eSIM and that it does not have anything to do with samsung.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] Markeee:
Some don't but enough already do the problem is Samsung not the carriers

As long As Samsung keeps it disabled your 100% out of luck
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] AllTheWay:
While I agree that Samsung has a part to play in this the same thing happened to Apple when they rolled out E-Sim support. It took the carriers to enable it on there end before it would work.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] Markeee:
The main US carriers already support it AT&T , Verizon , T-Mobile just to name a few but like I said until Samsung stops deliberately disabling it in the US its hopeless so its all on them
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] cpufrost:
I've been using e-sim with TMO and VZW since 2019 on iPhones. No problems whatsoever. This is a device issue not a carrier issue. The only way (in the past) I had dual SIM with Samsung is my Exynos S9+ with dual SIM tray. That worked great.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] hkr:
It is really hard to proof, what's the reason for the decision, not to offer eSIM in the states. The technology is there, on the european Folds it's standard, maybe it's up to the customers to continue to ask for it.

As long as customers keep buying versions without it, the carriers do not have enough pressure, to change it. Samsung can do both and I don't think, that it's Samsungs decision, to disable eSIM on US phones. If cariers ask for eSIM, Samsung would deliver.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] d.cortez:
i know that AT&T supports eSim on the Pixel 6 Pro (i configured the phone with 2 numbers) and i've seen the option on my daughters' AT&T S21 and AT&T S21 Ultra devices (although neither daughter uses an eSim).
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] zapote21:
All iphones and Pixels in US are dual sim. On all major carriers. On tmobile, the Note 20 Ultra and S21 are dual sim. Its not the carriers. Its Samsung
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] ycats:

I about freaked out when it started and I saw white horizontal and black bars (venetian blinds) which then animated and it shows THOM BROWNE. Did I just upgrade my phone to the $3000 version? LOL!

EDIT: Confirmed custom boot and shut down screens for Thom Browne version and Thom Browne wallpapers are available. Aside from that, looks normal, Nova 7 working well.

[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] hkr:
No issues with the battery so far, I upgraded 6 days ago. I can use it all day without loading during the day.

And as you know, the first days are the worst, normal use is not as heavy as the first days with many tests ---

[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] scottsimon1979:
I have a Zfold3 and zflip3, both unlocked, the flip is on Google Fi and the Fold in TMobile. Both had the latest OneUI beta installed. The flip (on Fi) showed the official update available today, the fold (on TMobile) didn't. So I swapped sims and now I'm able to get the update on the fold as well 😉. Love it!

Pulling it manually with friya. Because If you do Automatically it will download Tom Brown Edition rom And I do not like the animation. Boot up looks ljke a graphics glitch. This version is U1 XAA without the tombrown crap. Working excellent on T-Mobile but no esim support bummer.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] hkr:
EUX version is out since this morning. Just retry. As an option, you can download it on Frija.

How did you do it manually? It asks for the PDA, CSC, AND Phone. What did you enter in those to find it?

Nevermind, I'm an idiot.

Late last night for got the update, unlocked on AT&T

Is there a page to point me to on how to grab the downloaded file?? Happy to try and grab it.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] Talderon:
Yeah, word is Jan 9 for T-Mobile, unless they get their asses in gear and get it worked out early. Frija still only has Android 11 up for TMB.

Patiently waiting on this news so I can upgrade my Note 20 Ultra
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] masbirdies:
Question: I have a U1 that I bought completely unlocked from Best Buy. TMob is my current carrier. Can I install this U1 version, or do I need to wait for Tmob to release theirs?
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] cpufrost:
No you can download and ODIN now.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] masbirdies:
It installed fine, but what is this Tom Browne garbage that's on there????
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] masbirdies:
Yeah, I wasn't happy when the thome Browne stuff flashed on the screen. I need to find the OYM version of XAA. We got the OYZ version. I got mine via friya.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] Jake.S:
No it's still carrier. Since if carrier decided not to support it on specific devices then samsung wont enable it on them. Samsung follows what carriers request when they order the devices off Samsung. Then carrier tells Samsung to disable esim on fold 3 or note 20 ultra and then Samsung does the request.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] truckerdewd:
Not true. My previous phone was a T-Mobile branded Note 20 Ultra and it received an update that enabled esim on it as well as on the T-Mobile branded S21 Ultra. So don't keep saying that it is blocked by the carriers when it is not the truth.

As a T-Mobile employee, several of us discussed the topic when the update rolled out.

I spoke with them also yesterday *****ing as to why Samsung keeps blocking US esim support after several of them had been continually promised me up and down 100% 4.0 final would support it . What a waste of time bunch of say anything know nothing fools.

[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] zapote21:
Agreed. I even sent them a screen shot of where the agent had said it would be supported. All they said was sorry, that was wrong information
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] Talderon:
I honestly think that one of Samsung's rules is:

"Yeah, tell them whatever they want to hear to get the off the phone/chat so you can keep your numbers high."
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] Fatmonk8:
Anyone else's camera not working after updating?
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] 94b20gsr:
Anyone unlocked with T-Mobile sim see the update come through today? Nothing here. May end up swapping a different sim in to expedite after all.
