I’ve ended up with a pink line right at the center of my display after updating to One UI 8 . The phone was bought in the UAE, but I’m currently in India — and apparently, that’s a big problem. Samsung India says they can’t replace the screen for overseas models, and Samsung UAE says they can’t help unless I’m in the GCC. So basically, I’m stuck right in the middle… just like that pink line. 😅
Samsung has stopped rolling out its new One UI 8 (Android 16) update for Galaxy S23 phones globally and for Galaxy S24 phones in South Korea. The halt for the S24 series began earlier in the week of October 13-17, 2025, in South Korea, and as of October 21, 2025, now affects S23 users worldwide. Samsung hasn't shared why, and this comes after earlier delays for the S22 series.
