My phone periodically will freeze and restart, often doing it back to back. Sometimes upon the restart some of my widjets apps or even wallpapers are gone. Very frustrating I even backed up and factory reset the phone and it's still happening. It'll restart when I'm not even touching it, or when I'm in the middle of typing or listening to something. Does anyone have any solutions or ideas? Is anyone having the same issue?

Postnote. 
I have left a comment down below of some fixes I have found. Please read if you are having this issue. also please make sure you guys are opening up Device Care every once in a while. 

Well the problem is back so nevermind.

No it's still stuck in a boot loop. It'll give me about a good 5 or 10 mins of usage, then start rebooting again and again. I haven't done the factory reset just yet because I know it takes a while and I can't dedicate my time to that at the moment. And the closest customer care center is about an hour away from me so I haven't been able to make it out there yet

I have done some fixes to my phone and I am leaving them here so future people can try it out. It may not work for you keep in mind.
1. Reset device cache.
I found a tutorial on YouTube. https://youtu.be/oxkXa1A-Vmk?si=10JEjma4cJFaRANS
2. Downsizing some display customization.
I found that often my widgets and lock screen were often resetting to default after a crash reboot. So I removed the device theme, my multi-wallpaper lock screen, and removed my widgets. I will put most of this back to normal later but slowly.
3. Make sure your apps are up to date in the Samsung app store as well as the Google play store ( or whatever app store you may use if not solely the Samsung one. )
That's all and so far my phone is okay, let me know if y'all found anything else that helped. ๐Ÿ˜Š

Since its last update, my Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra has been freezing for a few seconds when opening apps. This is the first time this has happened. What's happening? How do I fix it?

Try clearing device cache:

1) Turn off your device.

2) Press and hold the Volume Up button and the Side/Power button until you feel a vibration and the Samsung logo appears. Let go of the buttons.

3) You will now be in Android recovery. Use the Volume buttons to highlight "Wipe cache partition."

4) Press the Side/Power button to execute.

5) Use the Volume buttons to highlight "Yes."

6) Press the Side/Power button to execute.

7) "Reboot system now" will already be highlighted. Press the Side/Power button to execute.

I have the same issue with my s22 Ultra. I believe it was the August built 59 update. It would only boot the Samsung logo
In a continuous loop until the battery died.
I had switched back to Note 20. I try to charge, and now the phone see the charger. Crazy I never had any problems with my other Samsung phones.
