Hi all,
I'm just after updating my Samsung S22 to the latest OS (pushed by Samsung), and the device is in a boot loop.

I'm very frustrated with what I'm finding on the internet about it, and not sure which options I have at this stage.

Locked out of my phone, struggling with payments, flight schedules and communication in general.

Poor from Samsung!

Hi all
I'm replying to my own post with a solution
Restarting the device in Safe Mode (link below) and allowing a new OS update to download fixed the issue. 😉

I can't even start in safe mode, just won't break loop.  It will then randomly fully boot but after hours.  

I'm at my wits end!

I tried the safe mode, but it opened on the same "Welcome One UI 7.0" with a "Start" button on it mode. I can't use my phone.

All I can see is the Galaxy AI Advance intelligence and so on with other features. I clicked on "More", the screen drags down to "Next" button and the same loop begins. How do I resolve this issue??

This happened to me as well last night. Started with the phone randomly restarting by itself earlier in the week, and suddenly disconnecting wi-fi. Now it restarted again last night, but got stuck in a boot loop of the samsung galaxy boot screen for about an hour before finally turning off.

I managed to start the phone in safe mode for back up and will try a factory reset.

I have the newest firmware, and the issues didn't start until the june 2025 One UI 7.0 update. So updating the firmware does not seem like a solution for me unfortunatly.

I can confirm that factory reset does not solve the problem. After about an hour of setting up the phone after the full reset, the same issue started again...

My Galaxy S22 started rebooting around end of March 2025. Until then, it had been in perfectly good conditions since I acquired it through my company (Cisco). Excellent speed and performance. It was only until after performing the UI update that it started rebooting randomly.

During April I spent countless hours trying to troubleshoot it:

- I cleared cache partition

- I flashed new image with Odin (keeping data)

- I did a factory reset

- I flashed new image with Odin (without keeping data)

These troubleshooting took me weeks because of the annoying reboot loop. Many times, it was almost impossible to even get to recovery mode.

After 2 weeks, I had to buy a new phone because I need it for  work (work apps, such as internal messaging, VPN and day to day MFA). I kept troubleshooting though.

At some point, when the phone was still usable (sometimes even for hours), WiFi was disabled. After enabling it, the restart loop started all over.

The only logical explanation is that the Samsung OTA Update in March caused something in the HW that prevents the phone from normal operation. Most likely a faulty SW that fried an internal part in the motherboard, probably the WiFi antenna.

I talked to Samsung support, but they are not willing to assume responsibility and they say that I need to pay for the repair because the device is, conveniently enough, out of warranty since October 2024.

This is sad. I own multiple Samsung devices because I really used to like the HW and SW combination that they pulled off. I kind of despise Apple's business model that profits from predefined obsolescence. 

I still hope that Samsung has not decided to follow the same path as Apple.
