I did receive it & started a thread as I didn't see this one. Oops. 🫣

Unlocked s24Ultra on T-Mobile.
(Western U.S.)

Oops again... I re-read the OP & realized it was about carrier locked phones.
Sorry 😞 .

Got it this morning. S24 cheapest variety. Unlocked on Boost Infinite (AT&T). I had to force the OTA update but I am sure it would eventually tell me about it. It took 10 minutes.

You're good. I want to compare when the unlocked and locked phones get updated.

When I had my S22 Ultra (Verizon version), I usually got updates about two weeks before my daughter's unlocked S22 (on Verizon) got updated.

So... am I the only one noticing that this update was pushed out to just about everyone? Locked, unlocked, didn't seem to matter. All Samsung updates are staggered for weeks and this one seems to have hit everyone. Did anyone not get it?

No you're not the only one. I guess the display issue was important enough for Samsung to push an update this quickly. Samsung and the carriers have just proven that pushing updates quickly can be done.


To be honest, Korea got it almost a week before the rest of us.
