Carrier-locked Galaxy S24 gets May 2024 security update in the US
Samsung has started rolling out the May 2024 security patch update with the Galaxy S24 series devices. This time the company has started it with the US region. Earlier, the device had stopped receiving the latest security patch on the ATT network, but now with the latest development, it is live on the Verizon network.
Users who own Verizon and T-Mobile locked the Galaxy S24, Galaxy S24+, and Galaxy S24 Ultra with the firmware version numbers S921USQS2AXD3, S926USQS2AXD3, and S928USQS2AXD3. With the latest update, the smartphone will get some security-related enhancements.
According to the official documentation, the May 2024 security patch update will provide more than 50 fixes. Google has added 31 fixes, which resolve the issue related to the Android OS. Additionally, Samsung has also included 25 more fixes that fix issues related to the Galaxy device’s internal functions.
Moreover, the update is mainly limited to the security enhancement, which means you may not get any visible changes, but sometimes it also brings stability and other function-related enhancements that may enhance the devices.
It is worth noting that the update appears on limited locked models bound to Verizon and ATT networks and takes time to reach every unit. Along with this, the update will gradually be available on more networks and outside the US.
If you are using the locked variant of the Galaxy S24 series bound to the mentioned networks, then you can check and download the update by simply going to the software update menu via system settings.
