u/Lonely-Inspection-62

I use S24 SD indian variant. Did my pending security patch updates and restarted phone. Soon after received one ui 8.5 stable update ( not a beta tester till now). After update, phone didn't proceed to home screen, it's looping in the galaxy AI screen even after clicking next many times.

Method tried to avert the loop:

1. Force restart - no use

2. Safe mode entry- no use

3. Starting without internet (gemini suggestion)- no use

Did not try recovery boot or other unknown methods.

Suggest a fix ASAP! (THIS IS MY PRIMARY PHONE).

Interesting part - i can activate gemini by voice command and open individual apps except SETTINGS app, which is what i want! It's not opening.
