ANDROID Lollipop for GALAXY S5 general discussion (news&leaks&problems&expectations)
The Samsung Galaxy S5 may join the LG G3 in getting updated to Android 5.0 Lollipop before the end of this year. Earlier today, an LG rep apparently said as much regarding his company's current flagship smartphone.
Now though it looks like LG's arch-rival from its home country of South Korea doesn't want to be left behind. According to a new rumor, Samsung will start rolling out the Android 5.0 update for the Galaxy S5 sometime in December.
That's when the deployment will commence, though as usual it will take a few weeks for all regional versions of the S5 to get the new bits. Still, given that Google has yet to release a final variant of Lollipop, this would be a very fast update timeline for both the G3 and the S5, and the new software would come much sooner than for past flagships getting Android version bumps.
A test build of Lollipop for the Galaxy S5 got previewed a few weeks back, and since Samsung was clearly already working on the update at that time, the rumored release time frame may just pan out. We'll have to wait and see.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
17-Jun:
According to the news on SamMobile, S5 mini will receive Android 5 before July (within only 13 days).
And the firmware for s5 mini shows that majority of s5 mini is currently having PDA of G800FXXU1ANL1, to me, this means all S5 mini are now ready to be updated to Android 5.
Finger crossed and lets wait for the big day

Well, for the record, it is now 30th of July. My other Samsung A3 at home has already got Lollipop update one week ago. What the hack is Samsung thinking?
Samsung releases too much devices. There are the large amount of low-end devices, the Note family and the S, A, J, O series. Samsung tries to keep up the support of this overwhelming bunch of smartphones, but that's a very difficult task. So, unfortunately this kind of chaos is "normal"...
...Anyway, we'll have to be patient and wait for an official announcement or the OTA update.
I will claim that the version of Android a phone was released with is the best for the phone. Samsung started working towards the release of the S6, and the S5 was old news.
Excuse my English.
What?

Let's wrap this up then. :good:
Purchased S21 ultra from Best Buy as device upgrade for Tmobile line about 5 days ago. Device itself is Tmobile (verified by tmobile and their Samsung support). Problem is that it doesn't seem to be getting any update from Tmobile's servers. Contacted TM and they transferred to their Samsung support. Samsung support blamed tmobile and stated its their responsibility to push the update. Tmobile said to wait for 48-72 hours. Been waiting for a while now and no Android 12 update. I could update the firmware on my own using third party solutions but I shouldn't have to as there's risk involved with that. My return period from Best Buy will end soon. Need to figure out if this device will get the update or not. My S21 was on Android 12 for almost a month until I traded it in. Another family member has S21 Ultra and their device is also running 12. Need this figured out fast as my return period is ending soon. any help is appreciated.
Samsung has paused all updates at the moment as they try and fix some critical errors causing major problems.
Yeah Samsung has some burgs to work out so all updates are paused. And the Google pixel 6 n pro6 Google has frozen that update. You can sideload the update is you want to risk it.
Aah OK. I personally thought it was Tmobile's call since they are the ones modifying the OS right before it reaches the final consumers (adding their content such as visual VM, spam blocker, etc). Do you guys have any links by Samsung or Google where they officially state what you guys mentioned about halted updates? Thanks again.

I noticed that article earlier after the initial posts ... but if I recall correctly, it is only talking about specific market (Korea). Tmobile has already addressed the issues regarding Android 12. And can someone confirm that the updates should be coming from the carrier? On tmobile's website, they are not referring to any delays. In fact, their status is green for the complete S line up.
The update pause is for all regions, not just Korea.
[Update: Restarted] Samsung appears to have paused One UI 4.0 rollout for all devices
Samsung appears to have halted or paused the ongoing One UI 4.0 rollout for all Galaxy devices after problems and bugs plagued users.

Yes, the update is distributed by T-mobile however Samsung shapes it based on collaboration with individual Service Provider's. You won't know if the update is stable until it's installed. Why are you freaking out over not being able to receive an update which Samsung is pausing due to numerous bugs? Relax!
