In mid-April 2025, Samsung released the One UI 7 Beta 2 update for the Galaxy A55 in India. This update included bug fixes and some improvements. Now, new information suggests that Samsung is working on another beta version for the Galaxy A55, which will be One UI 7 Beta 3.

A reliable tipster has found a new beta build on the Checkfirm platform for Indian variants of the Samsung Galaxy A55 smartphone. The version number is A556EXXU7ZYD5, which shows that Samsung is preparing another update for beta testers.

So far, the Beta 2 update with the version ending in ZYD3 has only been released in India. Samsung is now testing a new One UI 7 beta build for the Indian model, which means more fixes and improvements might be on the way.

The new beta build means that Galaxy A55 users may need to wait a little longer for the stable version of One UI 7. Samsung is still testing to make sure everything works well before releasing the final update to everyone.

In addition to this, Samsung is also testing a new beta build for the Korean models of the Galaxy A55. The build version A556SKSU4ZYD2 has also appeared, which shows that users in Korea might soon get the second beta update too.

Recently, Samsung restarted the One UI 7 rollout for the Galaxy S24 series. This shows that the company is actively working to bring One UI 7 to more devices. The Galaxy A55 users can expect the stable update soon, but before that, they might get the One UI 7 Beta 3 update.

Samsung has reportedly started working on a new version of its software, One UI 8, and it looks like the My Files app will get new UI changes. After the redesign in One UI 7, Samsung is now planning to improve the app even more to make it look cleaner, more modern, and easier to use.

Recent leaked images show that the Samsung My Files app in One UI 8 will have a slightly refreshed design. The app name “My Files” is still placed in the center at the top, just like before, but the overall design looks more polished. The text style has been slightly updated to look more modern.

One UI 8 will bring changes to the category section. The buttons for categories like Images, Videos, Audio, Documents, Download, and Installation files are now smaller, more rounded, and colorful. The names of the categories now appear next to the icons instead of underneath, which makes the screen look neater and easier to read.

The “Recent Files” section has also been improved. It now shows how many new files were added recently, right in the heading. For example, it might say “2 new files added recently” with an orange dot to catch your attention. The previews of these files are also larger and spaced out better to make them easier to view.

Below the recent files, there’s a Storage section that shows how much internal storage you’ve used. It also includes OneDrive cloud storage details like previous

The new design in One UI 8 makes the My Files app more useful and visually appealing. It improves on the earlier design by providing more details at a glance and enhancing the user experience with better layout and visuals, while still keeping everything easy to use.

Samsung hasn’t officially confirmed these changes yet, so take this information with a pinch of salt. Stay tuned for more updates.

It’s been two days since Samsung resumed the One UI 7 rollout, but US users are still waiting for the update. The company first released the Hotfix build for the Galaxy S24 series and later expanded it to the Z Flip 6, Z Fold 6, and Fold SE.

We understand the delay is cautionary, but users in the US and worldwide have been waiting for the One UI 7 update for quite a long time. Samsung should now bring the update to eligible users and shift its focus to expansion for older models.

On April 10, Samsung initiated One UI 7 distribution for the Galaxy S24 users in the US and Europe. However, a serious issue identified in some Korean models has led to the expansion being temporarily suspended globally.

Samsung acted quickly in identifying the cause of the problem and addressing it. Korean rollout has resumed on April 17, but the new build is still awaited by users of the Galaxy S24 series living outside Samsung’s home ground.

The Android 15 upgrade for Samsung phones comes with an all-new design. The software brings intelligent features like Now Bar and Live Notifications that uplevel the user experience and streamline Galaxy’s notifications and updates.

One UI 7 has been delayed by a historic period, but Samsung is working to make it the last such halt. One UI 8 is in the works, and the official version is almost confirmed to be introduced with the Galaxy Z Flip 7 and Z Fold 7 this year.

Samsung has pushed a new update for the AOD (Always On Display) app for Galaxy S23 users who are using the One UI 7 Beta. The new update arrive with version 8.8.42.4 and it brings some helpful changes to make the AOD feature better.

The fresh update adds an improved Now Bar Sports function. Samsung has optimized this feature to use less memory, which can help your phone run more smoothly and save battery life. With this change, the AOD should perform better without slowing down your phone.

This update also fixes some bugs and problems that users noticed in the last version. These fixes help make the AOD more stable and give users a better experience.

Previously, the update was only available for Galaxy phones running the stable version of One UI 7. Now, Samsung has also made it available for users testing the One UI 7 Beta on their Galaxy S23 devices.

If you’re using a Galaxy S23 with the One UI 7 Beta, you can easily download the Samsung AOD update. Just open the Galaxy Store, tap on the Menu, then go to Updates. There you will find the latest version of the Always On Display app ready to install.

Samsung is regularly working to keep improving its features and apps. Notably, the stable One UI 7 update for the Galaxy S23 is expected to be released later this month. Stay tuned.

Samsung has shared an updated roadmap for its One UI 7 update in India. The company has revised the update roadmap on the Members app, which has replaced the mention of “25” with “2025” to end the confusion.

Recently, Samsung dropped the One UI 7 roadmap for India. The rollout plan has mentioned devices under four months: April 25, May 25, June 25, and July 25, where the mention of “25” led users to mistake it as a date, but it’s for the year.

Apart from the fix, the remaining release timeframe for devices is unchanged. The latest flagships get updates in April, while older flagship phones and tablets will be upgraded next month. June will be the update month for non-premium devices.

Samsung initially faced challenges with the One UI 7 rollout. A bug affecting device unlocking paused the update in Korea, Europe and the US; however, it has been resumed, and expansion will happen sequentially.
