Hi,

After the final update the subject problems I am facing, which is really annoying.

I tried many solutions such as soft reset, hard reset, clear caches, but I can only say that the update caused these problems together..

Information of my phone are attached. Screenshot_20201225-200412_Settings.jpg

I had the same problem with my old phone. I had to downgrade the android version to the version before the faulty update. This can be done easily by installing the right OTA update pertaining to your model. I recommended that you take your phone to the Samsung service center to avoid the bricking of your phone. hope this helps...

This link shows how you can downgrade your android version. I cannot guarantee that this will work. its worth a try if you really need to use your phone like before.

Thanks, but Samsung shall be responsible of not providing uninspected versions to us. NFC was a crucial tool for me and it was the only reason I bought the phone, and the battery issue is making my life miserable. I would sue Samsung if things are because of the unverified software release  and I will make sure to keep the phone software as per the warranty condition.

You current version ( Android 9 ) is pretty old and has had a lot of support and updates in the past. The problem might be due to improper installation, quite rare , but is possible. I hope you solve your problems..

Just for update, nfc issue was solved by itself in the last update so i am pretty sure it was due to software updates issue. Anyway, i spent like 6 months suffering from nfc issue and i bought s22 ultra
