   Samsung: How many restarts for "software   
   18 Jan 26 21:57:40   
   
   From: V@nguard.LH   
      
   Samsung A36   
   Android 15   
   UI 7.0   
      
   Seems to be stuck in a repeating software (OS) update.  The phone came   
   with UI 7.0 and Android 15.  Brand new phone.  This was the first day it   
   was powered up, and went through the SIM card activation.   
      
   Later a notification said there was a software update which, I guess,   
   means an OS update.  It updated to UI 8.0 and Android 16.  However, when   
   I finally got back to the Home screen, a notification says "finishing   
   previous update ...".  Eventually that goes away after many minutes, but   
   soon I get another notification about a software update, and the whole   
   update begins anew: "Your phone has been updated ...", "Software update   
   - Your phone has been updated - OK", tap on OK, get notified of an   
   software update, tap OK, shows percentage downloaded, and then   
   percentage verified, restarts the phone, and after getting back to the   
   Home screen a notification shows "finishing previous update ...", and   
   the whole process repeats again.   
      
   It's been a few minutes of not seeing the "Software update", so maybe it   
   finally stablized.  I think it went through 3 restarts, but I was busy   
   and probably lost count.  How many times does the phone cycle through   
   this update process before it finally completes?
