Samsung will resume the One UI 7 rollout sooner than you think (Updated: Confirmed)

Update: April 15, 2025 (3:35 AM ET): Samsung has confirmed that the One UI 7 update will resume shortly. According to a solutions manager on Samsung’s Korean community forums, the rollout was temporarily paused due to maintenance-related issues. However, the inspection is now complete, and the update is expected to restart soon. Here’s the full statement:

Samsung Electronics had been rolling out the One UI 7 update for models such as the Galaxy S24 series, Galaxy Z Fold6, and Galaxy Z Flip6 since the 7th of this month , but temporarily suspended the update due to some issues requiring maintenance. Samsung Electronics has completed its inspection and will resume updates soon. We apologize to our customers for any inconvenience caused.

Original article: April 14, 2025 (10:07 PM ET): Just a day after officially confirming that it had paused the One UI 7 rollout, Samsung may now be resuming the update’s release. While the company has yet to make a formal announcement, tipster Ice Universe has shared that the rollout for the Galaxy S24 series should restart on April 15.

This follows Samsung’s brief statement yesterday to Android Authority, in which it said:

The One UI 7 rollout schedule is being updated to ensure the best possible experience. The new timing and availability will be shared shortly.

At the time, Samsung did not explain why the rollout was paused, but sources pointed to a serious bug affecting the phone unlocking process on Exynos-powered Galaxy S24 units in South Korea. The same issue may have extended to Snapdragon models in the US and other regions, prompting Samsung to remove the update files altogether. A serious flaw was also discovered in Samsung’s Secure Folder, which may have been the culprit behind the rollback.

Now, however, it seems that the company has quietly addressed the issue and could begin to push out fixed builds soon. It’s still unclear whether this means the One UI 7 update will resume globally right away, or if Samsung is taking a phased approach starting with select markets. We’re also not sure if the release schedule will remain unchanged for other Samsung phones. That said, we’re hearing murmurs that the Galaxy S23 series may get One UI 7 in Canada starting April 22, which means S23 users in the United States can also expect the update to start rolling out on that day.

If you’re using a Galaxy S24, Z Fold 6, or Z Flip 6, it might be worth checking for updates in the next few days, especially if you missed the initial rollout wave. As always, we’ll keep an eye on developments and update you when Samsung makes things official or when the One UI 7 rollout resumes.
