Thursday in
Galaxy S
😰 Something strange and scary happened while updating my Galaxy S25 Ultra today...

While installing the June 2025 OTA update, my device suddenly booted into the bootloader with this terrifying message:
"Can't load Android system. Your data may be corrupt… You may need to perform a factory reset and erase all user data."
There was even an "encryption failed" warning. And to make things worse - I hadn’t backed up my recent files. 🥲
Out of sheer panic (and desperation), I put the phone in the refrigerator for a few minutes to cool it down… then hit "Try again" and miraculously, it booted up fine. Everything is working now. 🙌
📌 Lesson learned: Always take a full backup before installing software updates. You never know when things can go wrong.
