Z Fold 4 Android 13
Just want to say it is pretty bad that a brand new flagship is being held up by Tmobile. Still on Security Patch for Nov. 1, 2022. Other Guys have gotten their update (a coworker actually got theirs for their Z Fold 3 2 weeks ago.) really wish there was some kind of communication other than "In Development"

Umm, you might want to contact T-Mobile support and see if there's any way for them to assist you with getting it pushed. I've had Android 13 on my T-Mobile Fold 4 since lateish November... November 23rd to be exact is when it downloaded

Yep, and January security updates are being released to all while the flip 4 sits waiting for mid November release. Embarrassing and if I worked for Samsung I'd be screaming at Tmobile making a flagship phone look worthless for security/bug repairs.

I can't believe how TMO is dragging their feet on this. Why such a long delay?

Samsung already start working on beta released for one ui 5.1
Come on tmobile. Are you trying to put bloatware? It's 2023, no one use pay per service anymore. Get rid off those useless servers.
New t mobile ceo is sucks.

It's 100% a T-Mobile issue. Everybody have this update for a while across carriers and across countries. I get it's a major update and probably T-Mobile found bugs or requested new stuff, I don't know but as a consumer I don't care. I also don't care of major upgrades but I think at this price point I want a secure mobile phone and we're now in January other vendors (including Samsung) are receiving January security patches and we're stuck in November security patches. Major vulnerabilities including specific to Samsung have been addressed and T-Mobile is basically making Samsung look bad, insecure because they require their sweet time, blocking a tons of people for some of their testing, they're not transparent at all on what's blocking the rollout and worst of all T-Mobile have not adopted a plan B which is at the very least deploying security patches on top of the existing deployed Android 12. Well I guess the only way to make a change is to switch carrier and if it's still bad then change mobile phone brand. T-Mobile, most users do handle business and sensitive informations on their phone, security is important.

If it doesn't happen soon and I find out it's a tmobile issue, I'm probably going to switch carriers. My tablet got the update a month ago. It's the latest greatest phone from Samsung and yet super delayed updates. I heard some from tmobile got the update. So why am I paying my full price phone bill but others have more features. Hopefully it's not a tmobile issue. It'd be nice if a tmobile rep replied here and gave us some kind of information.

When that works, because it doesn't always. That also might cause the device to not download the next update from T-Mobile.

I just got my fold 4 worked on by asurion. They told me that according to Samsung that they must connect to their servers and update to the latest upgrades meaning Android 13. It ended up that my fold4 was still on 12L. So that tells me it's not so much t-mobile here but unsure. I have an unlocked version. I called TMobile about it and got a $20.00 credit off my bill.

T-Mobile is always last to get carrier focused updates. Even with the Sprint acquisition, T-Mobile sells less devices than the other two. You take care of your bigger customers first. Carriers do not employ development teams for operating systems!
