Galaxy s21 not receiving updates

[revence1988]

I have a Galaxy s21 olympic edition with number SM-G991Q and i am not receiving montly updates. The last update was the August 2021 patch and was installed on August 30th.
Also smart switch on Windows is not detecting Any new updates.
I tried to reset the device without luck getting new updates.

Does anybody has the same problems with the Galaxy s21 SM-G991Q not receiving updates?

I have this phone too, I also only got the August security update.

Don't worry, they probably lost their update schedule before switching to Android 12. I got updates yesterday for SM-G9910.

I have the same phone and find it odd that it doesn't show up on sammobile or anywhere else.
Does anyone know where to find original firmwares for it?

Well on november 8th i finally got the october 2021 update. Hopefully the android 12 update will follow zoon

I have a question about the G991Q, did any of you get the ESIM to work yet? It is currently software locked - in theory it should have it because it is a Snapdragon chip

Do you have Android 12 on G991Q already? Im checking every day but still no luck Should I install non olympic rom? Will that work? Thanks

@Corbik

This particular variant has yet to receive the stable One UI 4/Android 12 update.

@jussy

See here; the model number of this variant is SM-G991Q and the CSC is SJP. At the time of posting this, the latest available firmware version is G991QOPU1AUJ2.

whats happend....

 

[Corbik]

What standard version would be closest to G991Q? I tried to flash U1 ROM but no luck

Friends i'm also with the SM-G991Q olympic version.. I really need to switch to CSC from ZTO, to try to use VOLTE and WIFI CALLING from my operator in my country, Brazil!

Can someone please help me change CSC to ZTO ? I tried the tutorial above, but it doesn't open anything when typing the codes, were you able to change? I saw that it only works on android 10. but we are on android 11.

I saw that you have the option to change CSC ANDROID 11 via Samkey, but I believe it still doesn't have support for our SM-G991Q device.

Have you tried switching to another S21 variant's ROM with Snapdragon 888? it worked out ?

If it doesn't work, I think I found our ROM to perform restoration via ODIN, in brink event:

Yes I tried the U1 version since it should be US version with Snapdragon888.
That ROM you found, based on the numbers is exactly what is in my phone now.
I think I will just wait some more time to get official Android 12 update, hopefully our special version wont be forgotten

But If somebody know which ROM would also work for SM-G991Q and ideally would also support all languages and features (esim for example) please share
