How to Sign Up for Samsung’s Android 11 / One UI 3 Beta - Lifehacker Australia

I’ve never been a fan of how Samsung treats beta operating system updates.

That all said, Samsung is now bringing Android 11 to its flagship phones in the form of a sort-of public beta for One UI 3.

For the Galaxy Note 20-series phones, the following users are eligible:.

Galaxy Note 20 and Galaxy Note 20 Ultra users using unlocked firmware.

Unlocked users (U1 devices purchased directly from Samsung; Any carrier is supported on unlocked firmware.).

Galaxy S20, Galaxy S20+ and Galaxy S20 Ultra users on Sprint & T-Mobile.

Unlocked users (U1 devices purchased directly from Samsung; Any carrier is supported on unlocked firmware.).

Launch the Galaxy Store app and do the same thing (hamburger icon > Updates).

Finally, make sure you’ve used the Galaxy Store app to install the Samsung Members app — you won’t have a chance to get in the beta without it.

Now, launch Samsung Members and cross your fingers

Consider using this time to make a full backup of your phone, as it’s possible that installing the beta could somehow cause issues

It can happen, and it’s just an annoying byproduct of using a beta operating system

You can wait for the apps’ developers to fix the underlying problem or, if it’s a serious issue, you can hop out of the beta by deregistering via the Settings screen in the Samsung Members app
