Samsung continues its impressive streak of being among the first to release security patches for its flagship devices. The first week of November has just started and the company has already started rolling out the November 2024 security patch for Galaxy S24 series. For now, the update is only live on T-Mobile and Verizon’s US network. Unlocked variants should eventually get the update as well.

The AXJA firmware for the Galaxy S24 weighs around 446MB and includes the November 2024 security patch. Considering the size of the update, it is unlikely to contain any other changes or new features. However, once again, Samsung has managed to beat Google by rolling out the latest monthly security patch for its flagship devices. The November update for Pixel devices should be available later today.

Samsung has not yet published November security bulletinso it’s not clear which vulnerabilities the update addresses. The bulletin should go live in the next few days and detail all the Android and Samsung-specific vulnerabilities it fixes.

As of now, Galaxy S24 owners on the Verizon and T-Mobile networks are reporting that they have received the update. A wider rollout should begin soon on more networks and regions worldwide. You can check if the November patch is active for the Galaxy S24 at Settings > Software Update > Download and Install.

The November security patch should also reach other premium Galaxy devices in the coming days.

The beta release of the skin could be around the corner, although only the public stable version will be arriving alongside the Galaxy S25 series in early 2025.
