Did any one encounter their galaxy watch 4 getting bricked due to a software update. Once it's off it will never turn on again neither will it charge. I have send them for the repair ,hopefully it comes back okay.

And as a FYI - don't update until we know Samsung have addressed this

Samsung has pulled that firmware, and a newer build has started to roll out, apparently.

I reckon they have already fixed that issue with a new software push but tbh i won't be trusting any future updates anymore.

Mine updated today then turned off; thought perhaps it had run out of charge but when I got home to charge it no dice 😕 14 months old... anyone know where the Samsung repair shop is in Perth WA?

Contact the nearest samsung service centre or take support online. You still have warranty left. Mine's fixed and running like a champ.
