S22 Ultra Boot Loop Issues after 6.1 UI / Firmware update. Your Motherboard is Fried!

I’m posting because the boot loop issue after the One UI 6.1 update is clearly widespread, and I want to gauge just how big this problem really is.Is anyone else dealing with a bricked Galaxy S22 Ultra or a constant boot loop since the update? I keep seeing new posts about it almost every day.

My phone was working perfectly fine before the update. After installing it, it suddenly stopped working. Now, it’s stuck in a boot loop, and on the rare occasion it gets to the home screen, it crashes and starts looping again. i took it to service center but they were of no help, they say the motherboard needs to be replaced and idk the numerous motherboards they’ve already replaced due to SW update world wide? 

The pattern is obvious: this update has caused widespread failures and they are now charging for repairs wherever possible. we can take logs from the phones showing the update in question followed by recovery reboots immediately afterward.

It’s outrageous that a premium 1 lac phone has failed in 21 months, and Samsung’s response is a Rs 41000 repair quote for a phone!

That said, I’d really like to hear from others, especially those in India but also worldwide, about how you’re handling this situation. If your phone is out of warranty, you’ve been denied a warranty claim, or you’re experiencing this issue, please share your story.

Adding your voice helps build a stronger case and puts more pressure on Samsung to finally take responsibility for this widespread problem.

Sounds like I am having a very similar issue to you all with my wife's S22. Crashing and caught in a loop. Uk bought on contract.

Glad to hear you found an alternative way to fix the issue. I will try and share this in other threads as there is still many people stuck.

Thankfully  I was able to fix mine

my Ultra crashed on XMAS day 2024 after the updated 

Called Samsung on the 26th ,they tell me I need to bring it to a Ubreakitfix

paid 40$ for a diagnose and the motherboard is apparently crashed

called Samsung today Dec 27th , they tell me to send it on my dime , and they will also charged me

a diagnose fee ( even tho I took it to a recommend samsung dealer ) and pay for the parts and labor for 

something they ***** up and sent as an updated.  I have possible lost all my data ( personal pics ) and I have yet to recover anything off the phone.   

 

thats a great marketing by crashing us s22 owners and forcing us to either pay to get it fix or upgrade to a new phone, corp *****  , PLEASE someone start a Class Action Lawsuit  , because they are not taken ownership of their fuckery

Just adding to the list here but my s22 ultra died on Xmas day. Constant boot loops, loss of WiFi and Bluetooth after downloading the December 6.1 update. I've spoken to Samsung and it'll be at MY expense to replace the phone. I've had to put myself back into a contract to be able to actually have a phone because the s22 is bricked. They told me it was being investigated but isn't officially 'their problem' yet. I'm in the UK for anyone curious.

I was only 3 month out of contract, not covered under the warranty and phone was in immaculate condition.

Really sorry to hear this. Same happened to me and so many others. We are all victims of a scam. There is no other way to put it. Class action suit is the best treatment that Samsung needs. 

And oh, please don't forget to boycott their products totally!!! Even though sounds terrible and evil, they should feel the pain.

Very sorry to hear this. Same boat. ***** didn't even take responsibility yet. They just shrugged it off. 

What's your next step??? I'm happy to join anyone here to start a rampage against this moronic company. 

Please let me know if you have any ideas.

Great suggestion and writeup. Thank you for writing this. Unfortunately in my case the phone is in bootloop and will never reciver whatever I or the samsung service center does. It is now just paper weight 😞

I sent them a legal notice and they are hiding behind their warranty policy, but it's useless as I have call recordings with the VOC Team Lead where he assured company will bear the cost of repair irrespective of warranty status if any issue comes to our devices due to software/technical issues. Plus I also have Evidences where Samsung has acknowledged this bootloop issue is due to update. I am going to file a case and involve media but if others want to join then we can file a class law suit.
