Samsung Galaxy A55 bags a new security update before permanently shifting to One UI 7. It’s the February 2025 patch we’ve encountered multiple times in the past few weeks. This update has some crucial security fixes, and updating the device could potentially save you from cyber threats and bad actors.
This patch update is currently being deployed in Europe, but in a short time, it will reach the rest of the world, updating every Galaxy A55 device on the way. That is if you allow your device to update the firmware. We’ll discuss how to install this new patch later. Let’s look at the details first.
The new firmware version will show up with a code almost similar to “A556BXXS6AYB2.” But, the contents of this update will remain identical in each firmware build. This particular update was spotted in Europe. Before long, the rest of the world will join in, including Africa, Asia, Australia, Latin America, and North America.
Samsung Smartphone price has always influenced buyers’ expectations regarding software support. Samsung Galaxy A55 screengrab for the update also mentioned some particulars about the package. For one thing, the update is quite small at 286 MB, so it should be accessible on both WiFi and Data, though WiFi is always preferred while downloading an update.
February 2025 patch has the usual assortment of core Android and Galaxy-bound security fixes, but Galaxy A55 goes a step further to improve stability through this OTA. Samsung listed some bug fixes and even new and enhanced features, which make the update all the more install-worthy.
About its installation: Galaxy phones usually send alerts to the notification center when an update is available. You tap on it, and that brings you to the Download menu. The installation is completed after a few prompts. Galaxy A55 users in Pakistan will receive an alert once it is officially released in the country.
If you missed the alert, visit Settings >> Software Updates and tap ‘Check for Update.’ If an update is available, a new menu will show the Changelog and the ‘Download and Install’ button for the February 2025 patch. This is likely one of the final updates A55 will receive before One UI 7 as its upgrade aka the Samsung Galaxy A56 is also on its way for a launch. We’ll keep you up-to-date on that topic as well. So stay tuned.
