Watch4 LTE completely bricked to no avail.

Recently, I saw that the One UI 6.0 for the Watch4 came out, so I decided to install it. But there were no updates. Last time it updated was in April, and, I suppose there was supposed to be at most a singular patch within the span of 7 months. I talked to a Samsung representative about this and they said to give it a go and factory reset it (I have a proper functioning backup as of 12/25/2024) so when I reset and came to set it back up, it bricked itself. The device refused to function, even when the process was completed, it failed due to issues that it refused to state. It functions like it's a device I own, being able to access diagnostic info from Members but not being able to access it from Wearable. It's a brick now, a fat one at that. The watch's functionality is little to none, so, I'm stumped here. I'd rather get some info from more informative people rather than a Samsung representative that has the most NPC responses.

It always backs up in the middle of the night of some odd reason. I have no important data on there anyway; I just need a functional watch that operates enough to tell time.

Open Wearable app
Watch settings
Watch software update
Turn off Auto Update

You should be reminded by the watch to manually allow any update that's available.

I cannot access the Watch4 on the Wearables app at all. No option to select. Image for reference. There should be 2 dots. One for Buds2 and one for Watch4 but ever since the reset it's gone and hasn't come back after every reset.

The info is for later use, if and when, you get your watch reconnected.

Also, according to the article, with an LTE watch, you may need to contact your carrier.
