Samsung suspends One UI 4.0 update for Galaxy S21 series due to Google Play issues

22 December 2021
Google needs to intervene before releasing the update again.

Sort by:

Strange... I have the OneUI 4.0 on my secondary phone. (Which is. How surprising. the S21...) AND IT WORKS wonderful with the GPS (Google Play Suite).
I assume some sectors have a bit more shaky transfer than my place.

        Great. Now release Indian variant A71 security patch which already running late. Every device getting security patches meanwhile except Indian variant A71. I guess developers were busy in A12 now release security. Samsung always was buggy will remain buggy. No hurry take time to develop A12

              We still have headphone jacks on mid rangers for now, but I doubt they'll keep it for the next few years to come.

                    For midrangers, fortunately we do have options, and not just mediocre options but actually good phones with a reasonable price and good software support.

They all have their pros and cons, probably best to pick what suits you best\appeals to you the most.

                          As for 3.5mm jack, as disappointed as I am, I don't think it's going to return. Heck, seems like Samsung will be dropping it from their upper mid ranger segment. Also, Google seems to be dropping it from their Pixel 6a. Guess we'll just have to suck it up.

I don't care about SD slot or headphone jack and most have camera bumps these days. As for cameras they aren't over saturated, your argument doesn't stand

                                No SD Slot, No 3.5mm jack, No Charger, oversaturated colors and hideous camera bump! Now this too...and people think it's the best phone of this year 😂
