Tab S10+ Bootloader can't access !

Robin621k — Thu, 24 Apr 2025 20:26:24 GMT

I have updated my Tab S10+ to Ui7. As I always do upon a system update I go and wipe cache partition. To my astonishment I have not been able to access the bootloader with the usually method of Power and Volume up. I have tried at least 20 times, it just restarts.

Has anyone else experienced this problem?

I have reported this in feedback.

@Robin621k I noticed the same. I reported it to Samsung in the Members App.

Crazy that this has been overlooked!

I even tried on how it is done on the Tab S10FE that is running Ui7. It's different on that tablet.

Will try again when I get home from work.

i think you need to plugin your tablet to a laptop then you can access recovery mode

Bootloader has been a thing on Samsung forever, Power and Volume Up is how to access it when powered off.

It is missing in Ui 7!

I plugged it into my phone and was able to access the bootloader.

I don't know why they changed it.

I am experiencing the same problem and have not been able to wipe the cache partition. I am waiting and hoping that Samsung fixes this problem with the next security update.
