Defective Update (One UI 6.1 ) by Samsung disabled my Screen Touch (S21 Ultra)

[spark_item]

I installed the One UI 6.1 upgrade, which was released on 1 june 2024, on my S21 Ultra 5G (SM-G998U1). As soon as I installed the upgrade it got restarted but disabled the touch screen. I cannot use the touch at all. 

The weakness of the Samsung system has shocked me. I wonder if this update was already tested for safety or Samsung just released it with extreme carelessness. 

I performed the following procedure to get my phone work but could not succeed

1. Restarted (by pressing power+down volume)

2. Clear the Cache (going into the setup)

3. Factory Reset (by losing all my valuable data)

Note: Samsung should come forward and advise a solution to a problem they created. So they are responsible for fixing it in any way.

Same boat here. Samsung "support" is suggesting I pay for a repair technician to look at the phone.

[touch screen not]

I installed the One UI 6.1 upgrade, which was released on 26 june 2024, on my S21 Ultra 5G (SM-G998U1). As soon as I installed the upgrade it got restarted but disabled the touch screen. I cannot use the touch at all. I can use the screen with external PC mouse.

I am really worried about the weakness of the Samsung system. I wonder if this patch was already tested on different phones or just released with extreme carelessness. 

I performed the following procedure to get my phone work but could not succeed

1. Restarted (by pressing power+down volume)

2. Clear the Cache (going into the setup)

3. Factory Reset (by losing all my valuable data)

I am still worried about the phone. Samsung should come forward and advise a solution to my problem. Samsung must pay the hardware/software cost of their own glitches.

 Kindly help me if anyone knows something else which can bring my phone in to the life.
