Anyone know what the update was for today? Security patch is still showing Aug 1... (ATT S21+)

I need to check my Flip, see if anything shows up

Anyone have the Sep. patch yet on an unlocked S21 series?

I got it on my unlocked Flip 3 on AT&T a few days ago... since both our phones came out in 2021 I would think you should see it any time now

Who's your carrier?

No update here. S21U factory unlocked on T-Mobile. Still have August 1 security patch.

Some here with my S21U and T-Mobile. However, I do like some of their T-Mobile Tuesday deals.

AT&T. My S21 Ultra is unlocked. If T-mobile hasn't released it either, Samsung must have held it up?

Yeah it's just a security patch, I don't think there would be anything phone specific in it? Samsung does roll out updates in staged waves... they must be waiting on the S21 line for some reason

Actually, thinking about it, I do believe I read in one of my security updates something about changes for my particular phone (like camera improvements etc), so maybe the updates are made for specific phone models. I think that's why their security updates are so much bigger than a Pixels... instead of feature drops, they add improvements in to the security update. That would also explain the delay.

Samsung/carriers have a tendency for some reason to delay unlocked devices. There was a period of time awhile back where they were behind by almost 3 months, which shouldn't happen obviously.

I would assume this is the case for most delays with unlocked devices. Unlocked devices get their updates after carrier branded phones do.

It finally came through a few minutes ago.
