This morning's ui8 update has left me without a phone as now the Sim is no longer detected.

after trying all the online suggestions (including multiple mobile setting resets) I tried a factory reset. However, this also downloaded ui8 , so that didn't work either.

I've just noticed the GPS reception is also non functioning. 

I have raised an error report and received an acknowledgement. 

I seen a few other's with the same problem.

If I put my S6 into airplane mode. It still shows signal strength on the status page. Whereas my Knobbed up A53 says 'not available ' at all times

I have logged 2 error reports and have had no response. A Shocking service. There is no simple fix and TBH we should not have to fiddle about like this. Samsung ought to be pushing out a patch urgently. My boss will not be to sympathetic if I miss any emergency hospital calls over the next few day, and it will make for interesting reading in the press if I do. Will there be a compensation package offered out?
