Android 12 beta is out, esim is supported! But it's a bit rough and a bit laggy.

Last time I was on a Samsung beta they pushed updates pretty quick.  But yes the first one had issues and was much better with just one update.

Guessing it'll be a while until TNX is available by esim - T-Mobile users are getting errors trying to activate so they aren't supported either.

Yeah I don't particularly care about esim but the lag and typing there are major issues I'll be going back to stock when I get home.

Did you clear cache?  My S21 seems very snappy this afternoon, though I do use a different launcher.

Yep, trying to go back to stock and Smart Switch sucks ass, won't go over 5Mbps stuck at 64% I gain like 1% per 5 minutes like wtf Samsung.

My s21 has the Sept security update ready for install this morning.

[BlueAngel]

So anyone else have GPS issues? I've done two factory resets and still have issues getting a solid signal especially indoors, might have to contact T-Mobile about the issue, may be a faulty phone.

Downloading a new update now, but it says it's still at the Sept security patch level.  The description says overall stability of device has improved, along with security.  The last 4 of the version is AUIL

It looks like the *#0011# service mode screen shows some more info now.  Like GUTI?  NR_Tx Phy Channel Type: PUCCH?

[BlueAngel]

Only thing I notice new is there are more options under Processing Speed.

Beta 3 is live, new UC indicator has been added.

pretty wild, they just announced it like what, 2 days ago?? Impressive. I'm hoping some 5GUC pops up, they've been doing  a lot of work around me lately. Not sure who's network is getting the work done though, our local places don't report the permits very well anymore.

Installed and running.  No issues so far.

Just FYI, I ALWAYS clear my cache partition after every update.

[jreuschl]

What's funny is those who were on the beta apparently don't have the update yet.

[gr8nuguy]

got the update here. Has eSIM option also now.

And the phone has massive lag while scrolling, 120hz touch input is bugged.

Some people in the beta reported this and stated it disappeared in a week or so. Did you try clearing you cache?

Yes, I see this too. I thought I posted this comment yesterday but it never loaded I guess. Cache clearing doesn't help. It's a bug fo sho.

I just updated my Note 20 to the UI 4 beta and it is noticeably more sluggish due to same bug.

What actually helps is turning off adaptive display because the sluggishness seems to be when the display switches hz.

Shouldn't have to disable features to make the phone usable.

I haven't noticed any of this, S21 Ultra. Downloaded and installed the update yesterday.

[BlueAngel]

New update is out and it fixed the adaptive refresh rate bug finally.
