Software info

Thanks. Looks like Verizon are quick off the mark.

I got my BULC update yesterday on Verizon as well.

Good news... Singapore S21 devices have now received this BULC update.

The G99*0 Snapdragon models for China, CSC code CHC, are receiving a different update, BUL3, with the December Security patch.

Hopefully, Taiwan, (BRI), and Hong Kong, (TGY), will soon follow.

Just downloaded the BULC update onto my unlocked S21 Ultra on the Spectrum Mobile network.

Does that have CSC=CHA? If so, Frija and SamMobile are both showing BUKK, rather than BULC, as today's new firmware release for that carrier.

All I know is before I downloaded it I made sure to look at the file name and it was listed as BULC. It was a rather small, short update for me.

You can check the version you are on by going to...

Settings > About phone > Software information > Build number

Looks like you're right it is the BUKK update. Excuse the Matthew Stafford YouTube video in the screenshot.

So that I'm understanding things correctly, the U.S. unlocked models still need to receive the BULC December update?

You are on the old, November, BUKK, update with a December Android Security patch. See...

No one here has any way of knowing whether Samsung (or your carrier) plans to release BULC for the US unlocked S21s. BULC and BUKK have the same Dec 21 build date, the same Dec 1 Android security patch level, and they're both only security updates, so it's unclear what if anything distinguishes them from each other.

My US unlocked S21 Ultra on T-Mobile hasn't received an update in over a month, even though I keep checking several times per week. It's also still running a November 1st security update. Maybe sometime later this year I'll get something.

I'm in the same boat. Bought unlocked from Samsung using Verizon. I'm still on the November security patch.

I don't believe so. Here's my software info.

According to that, you have not received the BUKF update from early December, either.

My phone says it last updated on November 22. I try the pull updates manually every few days but haven't received anything since then . . . But haven't received anything.

Try connecting it to Smart Switch and checking, as per post #1.
