Samsung smart home software update put some users’ Galaxy S10 and Note 10 smartphones in an infinite boot loop.

Samsung Service Centers in Korea reportedly have a fix for the problem that avoids a factory reset and the associated data loss.

Samsung replaced the buggy update with a new version that won’t brick five-year-old devices.
