Re: One UI 5.0 Stable Release
tidbits wrote: 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. Good point.

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.. Actually, I own a Pixel as a backup.3Views1like0CommentsRe: One UI 5.0 Stable Release

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. I’m hearing that the unlocked version is the last to receive updates, so another week or so for T-Mo isn’t so bad.8Views1like0CommentsRe: One UI 5.0 Stable Release
not for hire wrote: 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. 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.6Views1like0CommentsRe: One UI 5.0 Stable Release
