AUF2 Global, Exynos, JUNE Android Security patch + camera update

[ironass]

A sense of deja-vu is emerging with these Samsung global, Exynos, releases.

In April, Samsung had a partial roll-out of build AUDA only to replace it 10 days later with a new worldwide release, AUE1, on an identical change list. The same thing has happened with the AUE8 build, released a week ago with the June Android Security patch, being replaced by this AUF2 build, also with an identical change list.

This latest update is the 12th for the Global, Exynos, S21 series and is currently being rolled out by Samsung.

This update is for camera, general bugfixes and June security patch.

Initially, as always, this is rolling out to the non-carrier branded, stock Samsung CSC codes first.

The Galaxy S21 Global, Exynos, devices that will receive this update are...

• S21 5G model SM-G991B
• S21+ 5G model SM-G996B
• S21 Ultra 5G model SM-G998B

This latest release replaces the G99*BXXU3AUE1/G99*BXXU3AUE8 May builds.

It is a FOTA, (Firmware Over The Air), update and you can check... Settings > Software update... to see if it is available for you.

Hey @ironass! I gave up on SamMobile back when he monetized the site.

What does AUF mean? It's an acronym, right?

Hey @ironass! I gave up on SamMobile back when he monetized the site.

What does AUF mean? It's an acronym, right?

The important bit in the release are the last 3 letters/numbers. These denote the year, month and build of that month.

UF2 = Year (U = 21st letter of the alphabet). Month (F = 6th letter of the alphabet). 2 = Build of that month (1 > 9 and then moves to A, B, C, etc; for build numbers 10 onwards)

Now I'm really confused. Was it good?

Samsung have started to roll out another firmware update, AUF6, to replace AUF2.

So, it looks as though both the previous June updates, AUE8 and AUF2 have been pulled.

Lets see how much of a worldwide roll out this new AUF6 release receives.
