Android 11 stable update rolling out for Global S20's

[ironass]

Samsung have just released the stable update for Android 11 and UI 3.0 for the global Galaxy S20 range, not the S20 FE as beta is only just starting to begin for that model.

It is a FOTA, (Firmware Over The Air), update and you should check... Settings > Software update... to see if it has arrived for you.

Be advised, it may take a little longer to arrive on some carrier branded models.

The update = G98*BXXU5CTKG

Download size = 179.82MB

Build date = 21st November 2020

DOWNLOAD

One UI version = 3.0

Camera version = 11.0.00.91

Android Security patch = December 2020

This is the 17th stable update in 264 days = 1 update every 16 days on average

I have a Verizon SIM and have yet to recieve the update on my device.

Verizon is not covered by Samsung's Global Exynos firmware roll out.

There is speculation that the Verizon firmware has been pulled. See... Seems like the S20 Ultra Verizon Android 11 update got pulled back... You may receive more help on that thread.

My SIM is Verizon, but the device itself is unlocked.

I believe carrier version verzion got it first, you can check frija tool if it say Android 11 when you put your model number and region vzw

My SIM is Verizon, but the device itself is unlocked.

So, not a global Exynos model obviously.

Here I am going to have to defer to my U.S. colleagues as I am guessing that you have the Snapdragon unbranded SM-G98*U model of Galaxy S20 and unless you can provide me with your CSC code and model, (S20, S20+, S20 Ultra), I can help no further.

Mine is a standard s20 snapdragon 865. How do I find the CSC code?

 

[Morty2264]

This is great to know! Hopefully it will happen for the S10 line soon, as well!

Mine is a standard s20 snapdragon 865. How do I find the CSC code?

865 is the Snapdragon chipset. I was after your model of S20/S20+/S20 Ultra

To locate your CSC code, go to...

Settings >About phone > Software Information > Service provider software version.. where you should find a 3 digit code as per the screenshot, below.

Ugh, figures. Verizon is just so freaking awesome.

Anyways, thanks for the help.

With the roll-out of Three and O2 today, that completes the U.K. Android 11 update for the S20 flagships.
