In reply to Pancho. That's interesting because my December 2020 update for Android 10 broke my 5G on my S20FE on Tmobile. This has happended to 3 different Samsung devices (2 FE and 1 Note 20).

I hate Samsungs Android 11 update, it ruined my S20+ 5G. I never should’ve updated it…Samsung never should’ve released such buggy bad update…

It’s not a Verizon issue, I have T-mobile and after Samsungs Android 11 update, I have alot of problems on my S20+ 5G phone.

The new Android 11 update from Samsung has a huge bug/glitch on Samsung Galaxy S20 cellphones, the update breaks the mobile data (internet) on those phones and it no longer allows people from using the internet. People could still talk and text, but no mobile internet.

AT&t here took the update the other day don’t get LTE anywhere I’ve had it before having issues sending text without restarting my phone. Works a little better when I put my MicroCell back on. S20+

In reply to Joey Inigo. I to had updated with no issues. I take that back. I can't read messages from the message app. They are whited out. But! I can read them using the My Phone app in Windows 10. I've reset the phone and the problem still persist.

In reply to JJ. You should warantee return your phone to Verizon. The warantee is for at least a year and if Verizon bricked it with a bad update, they owe you a new one (though it will end up being a refurb)

Well, I’m with Verizon as a carrier, but as far as the Android 11/One UI 3.0 update goes, it doesn’t really seem to matter who your carrier is. I’ve seen countless posts on reddit and other sites about the issue people are having after the update. I have a S20 Ultra 5g, Model SM-G988U (Snapdragon 865/Andreno 650). It shipped with Android 10 and worked flawless for me out of the box. Now, after updating and even doing a factory reset it has all but bricked my $1,400 device. Yes, it is still usable, but I might as well have an old Nokia 6110. My 5g no longer works, if I enable 120hz to play fully supported 120hz games it automatically caps my hz/fps to 60hz after the games/game opens and (not all) but a lot of my apps are very glitchy/buggy now. Also, when I switch screens from one app to another or just back to my home screen it stutters quite noticeably. So, at least T-Mobile paused the update unlike Verizon. I have tried multiple work arounds using package disables etc. and what works for some does not work for me or others. There are a number of very wide spread issues and a lot of the same issues across all S20 devices, regardless of Model (Snapdragon 865 – Exynos 990) and carrier. Hopefully Samsung rolls out an update to remedy a lot of this soon. But, I’m not holding my breath. If it takes months and months to fix this, I will never buy another Samsung device again. As much as I hate it, I’ll jump over to Apple once they have a new flagship with a 120hz capable display.

I updated my S20 and did a reset and its been working perfect for me and that was last week, not one problem…so far. I’ll report back if anything changes.

My S20 Ultra is randomly rebooting 2 or 3 times a day after the update. I had zero issues before the update.

It’s a really quick reboot, but it’s still ridiculous. So it’s not surprising they “paused” the updates.
