After installing this update the screen went black with green tint and device became unusable. There is a flaw/bug in this update from Samsung.
The model I have is S9 SM-GS900 ( 2018 ) MODEL.
Samsung support is of no help over phone, chat. They ask us to go to service center but during this covid situation it is difficult.
If there is any solution let me know to go back to previous version before this patch.
Now after reducing brightness to less than 5% or 100% am able to see a little bit the screen is unusable in this mode and it is becoming difficult if by mistake it restarts as it is all black and we have to imagine we are entering the right place for the Security key.
Tried safe mode but no luck either.
Just flash the stock firmware using Odin Flash tool
