Last week, Samsung started rolling out the April 2022 security update to its high-end smartphones. The update was first released to the Galaxy S22 and then to the Galaxy S21. Now, the update has been released to the carrier-locked model of the Galaxy S21 FE in the US.

The latest software update for the Galaxy S21 FE (SM-G990U) comes with firmware version G990USQS3CVC4. It is currently available on Comcast's network in the US, but more carriers could release the update within the next few days. The update includes the April 2022 security patch that fixes over 88 security vulnerabilities. It also includes general bug fixes and device stability improvements.

If you are a Galaxy S21 FE user in the US with a carrier-locked model, you can now check for the latest software OTA update by navigating to Settings » Software update and tapping on Download and install. You can also download the latest firmware file from our firmware database and flash it manually.

Samsung had launched the Galaxy S21 FE earlier this year with Android 12-based One UI 4.0. The smartphone received the One UI 4.1 update a few days ago and is set to get four major Android OS updates in the future.
