Yes, your data will be lost, but the phone should work again. It’s very likely that Samsung has pulled this update, so if you haven’t already updated, don’t try to. It’s also a good idea to turn off automatic updates to prevent things like this from happening in the first place.

It's a problem that may be familiar to some Galaxy S10 owners. Samsung also released an update that broke the phone back in 2019 where users were asked to enter a PIN even though they never made one. Entering any PIN would cause the phone to reboot and ask for the PIN again. Similarly, the only fix was a factory reset.

Several Galaxy S10, Note 10, Galaxy A90, and M51 users have taken to Reddit ( 2) to complain about their devices being stuck in a bootloop (via Droid Life ). The issue appears to happen while installing the latest SmartThings Framework build (v2.2.02.11), released on October 2nd, from the Galaxy Store.

Samsung recently pushed a SmartThings Framework update that bricked several Galaxy S10 devices. Users who downloaded the patch (v2.2.02.1) are caught in a terrible booting loop and some are suggesting that you factory reset the phone through Recovery Mode.
