Beta Program

S25user — Wed, 27 Aug 2025 23:06:53 GMT

I recently joined the Beta Program for the Samsung S25. I'm currently on Beta 4 and have not received Beta 5 yet, even though it's been out for almost two weeks. I contacted Samsung support both via Chat and Phone, and they said that I should be getting it soon and that it all depends on the carrier; my carrier is T-Mobile US. Did anyone else receive the beta yet? Also, it doesn't give me an option to opt out or join the beta program again because the current status says recruitment is closed for both Phone and Watch Ultra. Am I stuck on Beta 4 until the official release of UI 8 ?? If that's the case I'll just go back to Apple with iOS 26 I never had an issue getting beta software on that platform. 🙄

You need to post in the BETA Community not the regular community asking. And to withdrawn from the beta open the Members app

Tap the 3 dots in the top right

Settings

Beta Program Settings

click Withdraw from Beta Program

I didn't see an option for Beta Community so I chose Samsung S25. I don't have three dots on my Members app when I'm in Beta Program and it doesn't give an option to withdraw.

This is what it says on mine and it doesn't have the three dots that you're describing.

Hit the back arrow beside Beta Program and from your screenshot it doesn't look like you joined the Beta. I only say that because once you join the beta you click on that to go to the community and I've only saw that when you side load the beta and you don't have access to the beta community.

Takes me back to the main page. It does have the three dots but no option to withdraw from the program Settings and Invite are the only options.

I have Beta 4 on my phone and I was in the Beta Program..

I've only seen this when the software was side loaded to the device and not officially joined. You don't get access to the Beta Community or anything and have to wait.

I got the beta OTA when I was in the Beta Program the Samsung customer support informed me that I was still enrolled.. you're saying I'm not? So I'm stuck with Beta 4 until the initial release?

I'll tag one of the Beta Mods and you can also DM one of them to see what they can do.

I'm only saying that I've never seen this happen when you officially join the Beta. So I tagged the Beta Mods so one of them maybe able to figure out what is causing this.

GaryB82 — Wed, 27 Aug 2025 23:34:11 GMT

You're welcome they are the only ones that would be able to help figure out why you didn't get the update and why you don't have access to the beta community

Will they get the tag since this is the regular forum? I don't see their @ in bold.
