Hi,
I haven't for a while been able to check for any Android firmware updates on my S9 through the Settings menu. It just freezes for a while & then says the server is unavailable. Has anyone else been able? Samsung & Play updates still work ok.

I've seen this before and the issue was a faulty sim card.

The server needs to know your network and if the sim isn't sending the data, it won't work.

A workaround could be by updating through smartswitch, but ultimately, you need a new sim.
