One UI 4 - Android 12 just appeared on my Fold 3 in the UK!

So it seems after a crazy wait that it is now out in the UK!

Go check your Software Update pages!

👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

I appreciate its early days but hows this behaving on your phone @chippie ?

Hey, I have no idea yet as I want to do a full backup before installing it. Not taking any risks this time as the android 11 beta wiped my data partition.
I will install it on a few hours once I have had a little sleep.

I would think it's stable though with the fixes they put in place but we all know the beta was a total cluster f@ck. Not including the UK on the Fold and Flip 3 beta was a huge mistake which became evident as soon as it was released. The software was clearly not tested properly or the huge issues would not have been there.
I would bet some heads rolled over the way the beta was run.
Sorry, rambling on lol.
I will let you know in a day or so!
Have fun,
Mark.

Nothing for my Z Fold 3 yet
Is your phone from a carrier or straight from Samsung store?

BandOfBrothers · ‎05-01-2022

Ok @chippie

My Fold³ is direct from Samsung UK.

What I typically do is back up to Samsung Cloud and Dropbox and then update.

Straight after I clear the phone's System Files Cache.

I've never had to do a factory reset although I appreciate some do like to carry this process out.

Thankfully I've never lost anything via updating.

I'm looking forward to your thoughts on the update. 👍

Mine is from O2 and has the O2 CSC. I am pretty unwell at the moment and just did not get around to changing the CSC to BTU.

I tried the update three or four times and it eventually came up.

Just keep trying when you have a spare moment, it will come up. ☺👍🏻

I normally do exactly the same but with the android 11 beta issue I had I told myself that I will do a full backup before any major update.

It has nearly finished so will be updating in a few minutes now.
Fingers crossed 🤞🏻

Same here thanks for the prompt. Been waiting ages for this. Updating now.

Fair enough @chippie

I hope you feel better soon.

Take care.

Oh I hope you feel better soon.
Strange how a carrier phone gets it before a direct from Samsung phone
Used to be the other way round
Yeah I have been trying, so hopefully it will drop soon
