One UI 5.0 Stable Release
One UI 5.0 (Android 13) is finally rolling out across Europe, and now in the US starting with Verizon. When is the T-Mobile stable release coming?

also want to say the reason T-Mobile doesn’t have the “update” even though it has beta is VOLUME. T-Mobile sells nowhere near amount of volume that ATT and Verizon does. Also Android always goes through what is called a staggered release. Not all devices gets it day one. This is even from Google devices. It goes something like 1% then 5% then 25%, and so on. This is because if something hits the fan they can limit the amount of potential broken devices. Apple on the other hand pushes out the updates all at once and if you see their forums a lot of complaints happen around update time.

T-Mobile is usually last on Samsung’s list to finish and push an update for. It also varies by device as well. The newer the device, the more priority it will get to have the update finished first.

The S22 Ultra should be at the top of the list. Once Verizon and AT&T have their updates out, then it shouldn't be too long after for T-Mobile.

It is odd that phones locked to TMO (S22 series) are able to participate in the One UI 5 beta (unlike AT&T or Verizon), yet somehow, TMO can’t get an OS update out in a timely manner? I was in the beta and received the stable version yesterday. IF TMO-locked phones can participate in the beta, then it is clear that the S22 series on TMO is ready for the stable update now.

T-Mobile's implentation for things in Android, like VoLTE and WiFi Calling are the stock implementation that Google uses. It is easier to test with stock and then customize after.

So I'm guessing T-Mobile customers won't get Android 13 by end of October like all reports say Galaxy s22 Ultra should have it by. Maybe we should all sign up with Verizon so we can get updates on time. Plus T-Mobile description of "what's new" in Android 13 is big time lacking on information of everything that's new.
no one is really stopping you from doing this. if you are saying this hoping someone will jump in and start firing out updates to keep you as a customer you’ll be quite disappointed.

I participated in the beta as well. I returned to the stable build of One UI 4.1 because Google Wallet does not work with beta firmware.
yep, since beta software isn't certified, Google Wallet/Pay won't work. (I use Samsung Wallet...worked like a champ)

Thank you. Good to know. I currently have the Galaxy S22 Ultra, but in the future I may either go with a Google device or maybe even back to Apple, where the updates are more consistent.
switching phone companies cuz an update takes a few more days is crazy 💀
agreed..none of this is exactly new..V might get their update cleared to be kicked first..or ATT..all depends on whos update passes first..and or which company will shill out more money to have theirs at the top of the list as for priorities..
oddly enough you dont see anyone just jumping to a Pixel phone so they just get the updates direct..
