Samsung Galaxy Phones Stuck in Bootloop After Recent Update

Samsung Galaxy S10 bootloop

Samsung users on Reddit are reporting widespread issues with their devices becoming unresponsive after installing the latest software update. A growing number of Samsung Galaxy S10, Galaxy Note 10, Galaxy A90 and Galaxy M51 users have been experiencing bootloops following the installation of a recent update. This means their phones are stuck in a continuous restarting cycle, making them completely unusable.

While the exact cause of this issue remains unclear, many users have noted that they installed a SmartThings Framework update before encountering the problem. This suggests that the update may be linked to the bootloop issue.

The only solution currently recommended is a full factory reset. This involves entering recovery mode and wiping all data from the device. It’s important to have a recent backup of your apps and data before proceeding.

This incident highlights the risks associated with software updates, even from reputable companies like Samsung. While updates are intended to improve device performance and security, they can sometimes introduce new problems. As more information becomes available, we will continue to update this story.
