Google Play System Update (June 2025) rolls out for Samsung devices

Google Play System Update was a feature that was introduced for devices that ship with Android 10 or newer. It’s mandatory for device manufacturers that plan to release their devices with Android 10 to support Google Play System Updates. As a result, non-Google devices, such as Samsung Galaxy phones and tablets released with Android 10 (One UI 2.1), can receive such updates, too.

These updates don’t require security updates from the manufacturer to work, as Project Mainline modules work independently to give you better experience with Android phones and tablets.

On July 1st, a new Google Play System Update has been pushed to Samsung devices. This update upgrades your Project Mainline modules to the June 1st, 2025 version. This update weighs around 75 MB.

To be able to get this version, follow these steps:

1. Go to your device’s settings
2. Open the security settings
3. Find “Google Play System Update” and tap on it
4. If everything goes OK, you should see the below update dialog:

Click on Download and Install, wait for it to download, then reboot your device by clicking on the blue Restart button. The next time your device boots up, the revised update gets installed, so it’s going to take about 3 minutes maximum to install all the updates.

There is no progress bar, so don’t panic if it looks stuck. Your device will eventually boot up. Now, open your settings app and check your Google Play System Update. If everything is well, you should see June 1st, 2025 below the appropriate button.

In case your device didn’t receive the update, wait for a few days, and it will be available shortly.

Stay tuned for the July patch of 2025!

Samsung Galaxy A34/A33 still doesn’t have the One UI 7 update

Galaxy A56 no longer boots after a major One UI update

Samsung has recently released a revised One UI 7 update to the Galaxy A56 that features the Side Button for launching your assistant, with Google Gemini being set as the default. It also brought many improvements to the operating system, ensuring that you have the best experience when using your Galaxy A56. The update contained the AYDK build that was first rolled out to Korea before expanding to other countries.

Users began reporting the issue where their Galaxy A56 device no longer worked after installing the update, because it would get stuck at the loading screen. This happens especially for European users. The update would install successfully, but the phone would fail to start with the gears loading screen looping forever. This is a serious issue for everyday users, especially when business and many important assets are involved, but doesn’t affect everyone.

However, there is a fix for anyone that got affected by this issue. You’ll need to eject the SIM card from your phone. After that, force restart the device by holding the side button and the volume down button together until the device turns off. Finally, let the device load to the home screen, and you can put your SIM card back in. If you’re still experiencing problems, you can either try to reflash your ROM or take your phone to the service center.

Our projects welcome One UI 7!

Starting from today, we have finally set the support date for our official support of One UI 7 that was released for the Galaxy S24 series on April 7th. One UI 7 is an operating system that brings overhauled UI design in different areas, while introducing exciting new features, such as Log Video, Now Bar, Daily Brief, and more.

We will begin supporting users who are using One UI 7 to launch our projects, such as Nitrocid KS and BassBoom, until December 2nd, 2032. Our projects can now run on One UI 7, which is a big achievement for us, as we keep supporting our projects on Android.

Furthermore, we’d like to remind users who are still using One UI 5.x, which was released in 2022, that our support of this operating system version will cut off starting July 1st, 2025. This is to ensure that we keep going forward. You can still run our projects after this date, but all official support will end.

To update to One UI 7, make sure that you’re using an eligible device, such as Samsung Galaxy S24; Galaxy Z Fold6; and Galaxy Tab S10, before you check for updates. The rollout may vary, depending on the model and the country.

To obtain the update, perform the following steps:

1. Open the Settings app
2. Navigate to Software Updates
3. Tap on Download and Install
4. Wait until you see One UI 7 at the top of the page, then tap on Download
5. Wait for the download to complete, then tap on Install

After you perform the above steps, your phone will be running One UI 7 based on Android 15, and you can enjoy its new features and with many improvements on place. This makes sure that your experience gets improved.

If you still didn’t get the update for your device, wait for a few days or a few weeks, then check for updates again. If you still see “Your software is up to date,” this means that the update didn’t reach your region yet.

Note that the update process may take 15 to 20 minutes, and this can vary from device to device. The download process may incur extra charges if you’re using the cellular network as the update size is around 5 GB, depending on the device, so we recommend downloading it through Wi-Fi. Never interrupt the update process in any way, or problems may occur. Make sure that your phone gets charged before you initiate the installation process.

Don’t install One UI 7 before switching away from SwiftKey!

If you’re using SwiftKey and you’re going to install One UI 7 on your phone as soon as it rolls out to your country, then… STOP!

Why? Because once you install One UI 7 while using the SwiftKey keyboard, and you’ve set your phone to lock with a password, you will never be able to get back to your phone again. That’s due to the keyboard not showing the Enter button because it’s hidden under the navigation bar. The blank areas in the navigation bar are untouchable, so this means that your phone will be rendered useless unless you either factory reset your device or try to perform a workaround.

Microsoft has fixed the problem and released the new version of SwiftKey. This has affected all Galaxy S25 phones and any other phones that run One UI 7. Consider updating SwiftKey and switching to Samsung Keyboard before you initiate the update. After the update, switch back to SwiftKey after unlocking your phone.

When will you get the One UI 7 update?

Samsung has just started their phased rollout of the One UI 7 update starting from all Galaxy S24, Z Fold/Flip 6, and Z Fold Special Edition devices in Korea. This was right after the Beta programs for this location have already been closed as seen in the following recruitment posts:

• [Beta End] Recruiting Participants for Galaxy S24 Series One UI 7 Beta Program
• [Beta End] Galaxy Z Fold6 One UI 7 Beta Program Participant Recruitment
• [Beta End] Recruiting Participants for Galaxy Z Flip6 One UI 7 Beta Program

People in regions other than Korea were anticipating the One UI 7 update being released to their flagship devices, while the rollout didn’t start in those regions yet. Before the One UI 7 release date, people had speculated that Korea and other regions would be getting the update on April 7th.

In Canada, Telus has published a list of Galaxy flagships devices that will be updated to One UI 7 in approximately April 11th. At the beginning of the page, this carrier warned that those dates were approximate and that they could change.

In the US, the beta program for those three flagships didn’t end yet, and the local One UI Beta Team has notified users that there is “no official schedule has been confirmed by Samsung at this time” for the US or other regions. Additionally, the team has confirmed that “any date being circulated online (including April 10th) is still considered speculative at this time,” but they notified users that the initial rollout is expected to begin locally starting April 10th.

The initial rollout started in Korea, because Samsung in some cases initiate the rollout there as part of the phased rollout, which began in April 7th. This is for Samsung to gather early feedback from users who get to try out the stable version in case there are unexpected bugs that might prevent the rollout from completing globally. As feedback is analyzed, the stable version of One UI 7 will be available in regions other than Korea soon.

If you’re waiting for One UI 7, be patient as Samsung is working hard to ensure that there are no problems during the phased rollout. You’ll be notified about the update schedule in your area via Samsung Members. To check for updates, follow these steps:

1. Open the Settings app
2. Navigate to Software update
3. Tap on Download and Install
4. You should be able to see the update information. Verify the version with your device model posted above.
5. Click on Download, let it download, and click on Install. Make sure that you download the update through Wi-Fi.

This update could take more than 15 minutes to install, depending on the device. Make sure that you have the phone charged fully before initiating the update process to avoid interruptions. Back up your data to your PC, the cloud, or any other device in case the update went wrong. Don’t interrupt the update process, or you’ll experience problems later.
