Samsung Officially Pauses the One UI 6.1 Rollout for Galaxy S22 to Fix Bugs
The Korean giant started distributing the One UI 6.1 to the 2022 flagships almost three months after the Galaxy S24 series was released. However, even after taking so much time, there are some issues encountered by users after installing the update.
For your information, last week, Samsung rolled out the One UI 6.1 update for the Galaxy flagship smartphones released in 2022 and 2021 models, including the Galaxy S22 series, Galaxy S21 series, Galaxy Z Fold 4, Galaxy Z Flip 4, Galaxy Z Fold 3, and Galaxy Z Flip 3 in South Korea. But after installing the One UI 6.1 update, Galaxy S22 users have faced issues like being unable to boot or facing problems while unlocking the smartphones.
Samsung has officially confirmed that it has stopped the update for the Galaxy S22 series devices. Therefore, users who haven’t installed the update on their devices will later see the update go off-air. The company has also said that it will provide the update soon for the devices, but it doesn’t reveal the exact date of availability.
To prevent your device from facing the issues that Galaxy S22 users face, you can do some simple things: First, you can backup your important data to cloud servers.

However, there are no other such cases found on other devices except the Galaxy S22, but by applying these methods, you can be eligible to prevent these issues.
