One UI 7 Rollout Halted Due to a Critical Bug
Despite the official announcement, as of April 14th, many Vietnamese users of the S24 and S23 series reported not receiving the update. Their devices continued to display the message “Your software is up to date.”

This unexpected delay aligns with information leaked by reputable tech insider Ice Universe. Their post on X (formerly Twitter) stated, “Sudden! After the Korean Galaxy S24 series firmware was pushed, a serious bug was found, which led to the suspension of the push plan in all other countries, including China.”
Furthermore, the original announcement regarding the One UI 7 update schedule on Samsung Newsroom Vietnam has been removed, strengthening suspicions of a technical issue forcing Samsung to postpone the widespread rollout.

The delay is particularly frustrating for users eager to experience the improvements in interface, performance, and AI features promised by the One UI 7 update.
