Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra One UI 7 Beta

The May 2025 security update is starting to roll out to the Galaxy S24 series. It’s the first official firmware update after Samsung deployed the Stable One UI 7. Global users, including in the US, should expect the OTA within a week.

Samsung’s BYDF update installs the latest May 2025 security patches on Galaxy S24, S24+, and S24 Ultra. Unlike the S25 series, it’s not a Seamless Update, so you will have to face a little more downtime during installation.

The update is available at different carriers in South Korea. A notification for the OTA would appear on your device, while you can manually speed up the process by fetching the update through the Software update section under Settings.

Firmware versions:

  • Galaxy S24 – S921NKSS4BYDF
  • S24 Plus – S926NKSS4BYDF
  • S24 Ultra – S928NKSS4BYDF

One UI 7-based security patch

The changelog suggests the release focuses on security improvements. Additional enhancements for system stability and app functioning are included. But what makes it more meaningful is its arrival after the recent major upgrade.

Last month, Samsung concluded the Beta Program and released the Stable One UI 7 update. The major OTA has reportedly caused excessive battery drain problems. Some users also found “very minor” flaws across the operating system.

The May 2025 software update should address the errors causing excessive battery consumption. System animations and functional stability should also be enhanced to deliver a better overall user experience.

May patch includes fixes for 58 CVEs from Google and 20 from Samsung.
