What happened
A recent Samsung change leaves some Galaxy phones stuck after updating, according to Android Authority. Some users are hitting an XML error, but going offline may get them past it. TL;DR Some Galaxy users report getting stuck on an XML “Access Denied” screen after updating to One UI 9. Samsung is an electronics company based in Suwon.
The issue appears during Samsung’s post-update setup, not during the update itself, so affected phones don’t appear to be truly bricked. Going fully offline, including disabling Wi-Fi and mobile data, has helped some users get past the error. Major Android updates are supposed to end with a tour of what’s new, not leave you wondering whether your phone has just become an expensive paperweight.
