Samsung has reportedly paused the global rollout of its One UI 7 update, which is based on Android 15, due to a critical software issue. The update had just started reaching users of the Galaxy S24 series, Galaxy Z Fold 6, and Galaxy Z Flip 6 last week after months of delays. However, the rollout appears to have been abruptly stopped, raising concerns among users who haven’t yet received it.
According to several sources, a “serious bug” discovered in the latest firmware build has led Samsung to pull the update from its servers. While the company hasn’t issued an official statement, the issue has been widely discussed across Samsung forums and social media platforms. Prominent leakers and tipsters have also reported that both Exynos and Snapdragon-powered variants of the Galaxy S24 lineup are affected, suggesting the bug isn’t limited to a single chipset.
Initial reports indicated the problem was restricted to Galaxy S24 devices powered by the Exynos 2400 processor. But further information reveals the halt also applies to Snapdragon models, including those sold in the United States and other global markets. Firmware for affected models has reportedly been removed from Samsung’s over-the-air update servers, which would explain why some users have yet to see the One UI 7 notification.
Users who have already installed the Android 15-based One UI 7 update on their Galaxy phones may see a follow-up patch soon. This patch is expected to address the underlying issue, although no timeline has been shared. The situation has also triggered concern about whether this delay will ripple into other scheduled updates, particularly for older models like the Galaxy S23 series.
Samsung has not officially confirmed the suspension or provided details about the bug responsible for the halt. As the story unfolds, Galaxy users waiting on the Android 15 update may experience further delays.
