Google Play System Update (February) rolls out for Samsung devices

Google Play System Update was a feature that was introduced for devices that ship with Android 10 or newer. It’s mandatory for device manufacturers that plan to release their devices with Android 10 to support Google Play System Updates. As a result, non-Google devices, such as Samsung Galaxy phones and tablets released with Android 10 (One UI 2.1), can receive such updates, too.

These updates don’t require security updates from the manufacturer to work, as Project Mainline modules work independently to give you better experience with Android phones and tablets.

On March 11th, a new Google Play System Update has been pushed to Samsung devices. This update upgrades your Project Mainline modules to the February 1st, 2025 version. This update weighs around 61 MB.

To be able to get this version, follow these steps:

  1. Go to your device’s settings
  2. Open the security settings
  3. Find “Google Play System Update” and tap on it
  4. If everything goes OK, you should see the below update dialog:

Click on Download and Install, wait for it to download, then reboot your device by clicking on the blue Restart button. The next time your device boots up, the revised update gets installed, so it’s going to take about 3 minutes maximum to install all the updates.

There is no progress bar, so don’t panic if it looks stuck. Your device will eventually boot up. Now, open your settings app and check your Google Play System Update. If everything is well, you should see February 1st, 2025 below the appropriate button.

In case your device didn’t receive the update, wait for a few days, and it will be available shortly.

Stay tuned for the March patch of 2025!

Does anyone know of a way to stop apps from making the navigation bar in Android (14) transparent, or from hiding it completely?

I prefer to have it visible and opaque at all times.

I see that there are some apps on the Play Store that claim to do this, and I suppose I could use a different launcher but, rather than take pot luck, it would be nice to have recommendations.
