Help! latest Beta locked up my S23 phone (cannot power off or restart). Any ideas?

 

edit: Just figured out hard reboot by holding power/vol- until reboot. that took care of it. The on-screen "power off/restart" would not get past the hard lock that happened (black screen with only samsung pay swipe bar visible)

Also, if you have Good lock installed - uninstall it, I think it is not compatible with the beta. I had a similar issue and the phone stopped working, could only get to Samsung wallet screen.

The Samsung Good Lock application works with the Beta firmware, except for a few modules that are in Good Lock

Try clearing the cache partition from your phone, this seems to help with the problems that you are experiencing
