After "what" update?

Boot into Maintenance mode, then select to Clear the Cache Partition ... then boot back into phone

hi yes they were able to fix it with the recent update my phone was still in 4g so they had to give me a 5g simcard

You may have been led astray - there's no such thing as a "5g SIM"... the SIM merely "tells the phone who to connect to" ...

To use 5g, you need a phone capable of 5g and your calling plan would have to support it.

Case in point, my wife and I had 4g capable S10 phones ... we traded in for S21s, simply removed the SIM from the S10 and inserted into S21, and bam! 5g service and speeds (on AT&T network)

So I'd say you simply had a "defective" SIM.
