How to fix Samsung Galaxy phones stuck on July 2022 Play system update

Some Samsung Galaxy phone users are experiencing an issue where their devices are stuck on the July 2022 Google Play system update. This issue appears to have started after the rollout of the Android 13-based One UI 5 update, and is affecting not just Samsung’s flagship phones, but also the Galaxy A52.

Users have reported the problem on Samsung’s support forums and Reddit. Saying that despite manually checking for updates, their phones remain stuck. In some cases, users are given the option to restart and install a new build. However, after the reboot, the Google Play system update still remains on July 2022. It is not clear if other non-Galaxy Android phones are experiencing a similar issue.

If your Galaxy phone is stuck on the July 2022 Play system update, you can try manually sideloading the November 2022 build by downloading and installing the latest main components from reliable APK websites. After a reboot, your phone should be running the November 2022 Google Play system update. Keep in mind that the build with S+ in its name is meant for Android 12 and newer versions of the OS, so be sure to download the correct version.
