After the update my touch screen will not work unless I use the Spen. Samsung made a comment blaming it on Google?? But I've heard from other people it's been an issue for a couple of years so I'm curious on when they plan to fix it because this is ridiculous, I have some apps where I can only log in with my fingerprint.

Didn't work. Prob needs samsung to patch the issue. If they don't, I'll need to get a new phone I guess. Won't be a Samsung phone xD

I have the same issue! Technical support suggested basic solutions that never worked. And since my s23 ultra is not under warranty anymore, it's basically a F*** YOU. Nice way to throw almost 2K$ into the trash.

While I always preferred android's flexibility, I'm going to have to go back to apple. At least, they offer a stable environement. Not an update rendering your phone completely useless without the possibility to downgrade to an earlier update. (I even searched for that on youtube, didn't work).

And with no press release from Samsung, it shows how much the company doesn't care for it's customers.

I updated my husband's Samsung s23 ultra with the latest update and now it only works with a S pen. Does anybody else have this problem?

I'm having the same issue. Others are having the issue and from what I've gathered we've all had our screens repaired and didn't get the official OEM Samsung screen. The original screens are still working. Did you have your LED screen replaced?
