My phone had been totally fine all these while for 1 year and 10 months. After updated my A53 to the latest One UI 6.1 update mid of Jun 2024, the same night my phone started to randomly restartingvery frequently until the extend that it cannot be used at all.

Tried all sorts of standard troubleshooting but same problem still exist. Found many others faced similar issue online.

I have tried:
  • Soft reset by pressing power button + volume down
  • Clearing partition cache
  • Reset all settings
  • Safe mode
  • Off phone wait 10min and on back
  • Turning off auto restart
  • Factory data reset
Sent multiple error reports via Members app.

In the end, I found that every time when i turn on the location service and run any location required app such as google map, the phone will hang and restart.

I was told by customer service to visit samsung service center to get my phone checked which will waste my effort, time and trouble of not able to use my phone. I believe when I go to the service center, I will be told that it is my phone's hardware issue and need to get the motherboard replaced at a cost to me or some sort.

Hence, I decided to say goodbye to Samsung and all of its products. Samsung update had obviously broken my phone and now I'm forced to quickly buy a new one as Samsung couldn't provide an update to fix this issue after half a month time.
