I'm using this ... more"The last option is to use Odin and flash him.", you answered your question, you need to flash it, usually Exynos variants get updates more faster because is the samsung own chipset, and is more easy because most us variants are locked and takes more time, even if are unclocked take some time.

    Thanks for your reply.
    I'm using this phone (998U1 256GB) for almost two years, and until now and everything works perfectly. The version is unlocked, and from one UI 5.0, I do not get any security updates (November is the last one). Google security patch is up to date. Also, in Europe, the only models are on Exynos, and in USA are Snapdragon. The phone is really great.
    The last option is to use Odin and flash him.

        gg76, 14 Feb 2023Hi to everyone, My s21Ultra G-998U1 US unlocked version ... more"My s21Ultra G-998U1 US unlocked version (located in Europe), has a problem with upgrades. I got One UI 5 in January (I think that I'm the last one in my country🙄) with a November security patch and I didn't get any after so far. I read that is a problem with updates and the phones just getting stuck on some versions with no other updates. Can you have some solution for this?
        Thank you a lot"
        You have imported the US variant of the S21U to Europe?, and locked?, because the locked variants tend to receive the updates more later, I've had suggested you to buy the version that comes in Europe.

            Can you use a task manager or has Google disabled that as well?

                  SRS, 24 Feb 2023Bro Both SD888 & Exynos Chip have Heating issues. SD888... moreBud, I'm not sure you know what your talking about the snapdragon 888 and previous gens all the way back to the snapdragon 855 had no heating issues or anything major as far as I've seen. I'm a flagship smartphone collector so I have quite a bit in my collection using 855-8 gen 1 chipsets and they had no issues even when put into pretty rough task such as running multiple games like genshin, tower of fantasy, PGR etc at once with no issue. You may be the problem as you may not be properly taking care of your phones such as closing out tabs, cache and doing daily restarts to keep your phone running fresh.

                      I just checked old Comments in this community. Someone spoken wrong about SD Cards ! I'm not expert in anything but I can easily say that SD Card still worthy for the people who has tight budget to upgrade Cloud Storage like Google Drive &Apple cloud storage.
                      Cloud storage have so many benefits there I know but tight budget people like me prefer more on SD Cards or Pendrive.
                      Let's decode here

                      A 256GB SanDisk Micro sd Card comes with 10year warranty & Cost you $20 , No Monthly charge for next 10yr it will Protected under 10yr company warranty !
                      Other hand 200GB Cloud Storage cost Monthly $2.7
                      If we calculate for 10yrs Cost around near $320 !

                      That's the practical difference in cost for Sd Card & Cloud

                      I know for convenience Cloud is better but still cloud needed a strong network. Sd Card Or Pendrive doesn't needed Network!

                      For a middle class family man like me prefer more sd Card supported Phones but Honestly Flagship Phone doesn't needed Sd Card slot because 1TB/512 GB ROM phone widely available.

                                & Will get monthly security patch update upto 2025

                                The quality & Optimisation of the Update still have a question mark ! Bcz leading smartphone brands like Samsung & iPhone are well known for Reducing Performance of smartphone & Camera via Software Update.
