Now, set up your device, to do this:
- Hold the Power+Volume up button of your device to go to the stock recovery mode.
- Now go to the ‘update via SD-card’ option
- To do this use the volume up and volume down buttons for navigating between the option and power button to select the option.
- Then select the update.zip file by using the volume buttons and select the file using the power button
- After you press the power button the process will start.
- Now, wait until the process completes. It will take some time
- After the process completes the phone will automatically reboot.
ADB method:
For this method, you will require a PC, a USB cable to connect the device to the PC, and the device.
Start by downloading the SDK platform tool on your desktop which is available on the Android studio. You can download it from the link given below.
Now follow these steps given below:
- Extract the file on your desktop
- Place the update.zip file inside the extracted folder
- Now open the command prompt you can do that by holding the left shift, right-click the mouse and then select ‘open command prompt here’.
- The command prompt will open
Now set up your device, to do this:
- Shut down the phone
- Enter into recovery mode by holding the Power+volume up buttons.
- Select the ‘update via ADB’ recovery mode (To scroll up or down press the volume up and volume down button and to select the option press the power button).
- Now connect the phone to the PC using the Samsung USC cable.
- Now go to the command prompt enter the following command: ‘./adb devices’.
- Wait for some time and you will discover that the process is started and your device is found.
- After your device is recognized run the following command: ‘./adb sideload update.zip’
The final process will now start and you will see the percentage on your screen. The process may take some time, do not remove the cable, disconnect your phone, or power off your PC.
After the completion of the process, the phone will automatically reboot and then you can disconnect your phone.
Note:
- For now, after installing the beta update it isn’t possible to reboot into recovery via the Volume UP + power button.
- You will have to use ADB for that: “./adb reboot recovery”
- For reboot to Download mode use the following command: “./adb reboot download”
- Installing via this way shouldn’t trigger the KNOX warranty void.
- However: updating to Beta is your own choice, no one is responsible if anything goes wrong

Samsung could launch the Galaxy ixi-O AI Phone next year. The company has collaborated with LG Uplus to develop a custom smartphone. The device is said to feature Galaxy AI and LG Uplus’s AI call assistant ixi-O.
Sources citing KEDGlobal revealed that Samsung and LG Uplus working together to develop the Galaxy ixi-O AI Phone. It’s a big development in the smartphone industry, while the handset is highly likely to be Korea-limited.
Samsung fans are well aware of the Galaxy AI feature suite. ixi-O is an AI-powered digital assistant developed by Korean carrier LG Uplus. The company plans to enter the smartphone market, featuring its own-developed AI assistant.
The report indicates that Samsung and LG Uplus’ ixi-O AI Phone will launch as early as next year. The development project focuses on crafting a “real AI phone” that goes beyond simply integrating AI assistant services into a smartphone.
ixi-O comes with useful features such as AI call answering, detecting voice phishing in real-time, recording and summarizing phone calls and converting voice conversation into text – all within an on-device environment.

Based on specifications, the Galaxy ixi-O AI Phone will be based on a Galaxy phone available globally. The design will match with a global Galaxy smartphone, but the software may be tweaked as per the carrier’s requirements.

The carrier introduced an on-device AI-powered ixi-O assistant earlier this month. LG Uplus will initially target its consumer base for the new AI Phone. However, the AI Assistant may be expanded to a broader audience across Korea.
Samsung could use Gauss2-based Galaxy AI on the Galaxy S25 Ultra. The company’s next-gen Generative AI model is 1.5 to 3x faster than the first-gen Gauss model. The DX division is already using Gauss2 to ramp up internal productivity.
Gauss2 offers improved performance and efficiency in simultaneously handling various data types. In the previous article, we’ve demonstrated its three distinct models that cater to different purposes: Compact, Balanced, and Supreme.
Samsung says the second-gen Gauss model offers equal or superior performance in response generation than leading open-source generative AI models. That said, the Galaxy AI will become faster and smarter with the inclusion of Gauss2.
Thanks to faster processing speed, Gauss2 enables quicker AI response generation. This way, the Galaxy user won’t have to wait much time. The company stated that it will continue to expand the reach of its AI-based services across all product lines.
That said, the Galaxy S25 Ultra is likely to boast Gauss2-based Galaxy AI. This upgrade will result in even faster processing of tasks and execution. Features like composition, image generation, and translation would benefit from Gauss2.
Earlier, we broke the news that Samsung is crafting an advanced AI technology. The Gauss2 press release indicates that the future Galaxy AI iteration could be integrated with knowledge graph technology to offer relevant results.
The Galaxy S24 series also uses Google’s Gemini Nano AI model. The fruitful collaboration offers futuristic capabilities on Galaxy devices. Samsung is rumored to use an enhanced version of Gemini Nano across the Galaxy S25 lineup.
Meanwhile, Samsung’s development may have indulged Gauss2 capabilities on the Galaxy S25 series. Integrated with new processors and optimized software, the company’s AI model would offer faster, reliable, and smarter results.
