Samsung Galaxy S10 Series and Other Models Affected by Boot Loop Issue
Samsung Galaxy S10 series models, as well as a few other older devices, are facing a major issue after a recent update. Users have reported being stuck in a boot loop, unable to access their phones.
The affected devices include the Galaxy S10, Galaxy S10+, Galaxy Note 10, and Galaxy S10e, which were launched around five years ago. Additionally, reports suggest that the Galaxy M51 and A90 are also experiencing the same problem.
One Reddit user, claiming to work in a cell phone store, mentioned that several customers came in with their S10 devices stuck in a boot loop even before the store officially opened.
The cause of the issue is still unclear, but some users speculate that a SmartThings Framework update may be to blame. The only known solution at the moment is a factory data reset, which unfortunately means losing all data stored on the device.
If you own one of the affected Samsung devices and have not yet installed the update, it is advised to hold off until Samsung addresses the issue. Enabling automatic updates may also be risky at this time.
This unexpected glitch serves as a reminder of the importance of thoroughly testing updates before rolling them out to users. Samsung users are eagerly awaiting a fix to this frustrating problem that has disrupted their daily routines.
