Solution* Wallet not working after One UI 6 update on galaxy watch ultra

[MagedMagic]

Recently i received the One UI 6 on my watch ultra and since then the wallet payment was not going through. It opens. Shows the card. Then readers cannot get the card info. I might have found the issue after the update. Below is what I did:

On your watch drop down menu. Long press on NFC to get to NFC sittings. Scroll all the way down until you see others. Press on it. Then disable the Samsung health. 

Now it should not interfere with the card.

Let me know you had the issue and if it worked.

Thank you )))

Bad news I'm afraid, although I successfully managed to pay with my watch / wallet yesterday, today I had no such luck. I tried multiple times in 3 shops using 2 different cards, all without success, my 7 Ultra just went to a black screen each time. This is incredibly frustrating and I with Samsung would get their skates on rolling out a fix 🙄

Yes this is very annoying. Im not sure when Samsung are going to fix this.

I wonder if Samsung has acknowledged the problem? I contacted support. They wrote to me that I need to send them the error log. But there is no error. The screen just turns off when I try to pay. However, if I pay with my smartphone, the payment works.

Not being able to pay with samsung pay using the watch now makes it an absolute garbage. And we are getting and absolute garbage response from samsung. No care at all
