Samsung M12 - bricked suddenly...

[Android Central Question]

Good day everyone.
I was using my phone normally, didn't try to root it or install a ROM (don't know and don't want to know either).
But my phone suddenly rebooted and went to a fast/safe menu after reboot. Where I saw an error in yellow font, something like a "Android Recovery ... Cause is Unknow".
And 3 options to choose:
1. Try Again
2. Restory to factory settings (or something like that)
3. I don't really remember.

After I chose "try again" a few times it shutted off and booted to the new error.
Just a black screen, in the top left in blue was " Odin mode (Boot Load Fail)!
In red: load_boot_image: Invalid Magic.

And at the bottom left is a barcode with "DID" and numbers next to it.

Tried to use Samsung switch in hope to restore but it doesn't recognize my phone, though PC sees it, in a way.

Didn't install anything new for at least a month, maybe longer.

Are you the original owner of this phone? It was released in April 2021, so it should still be under warranty. Have you contacted your carrier or Samsung for warranty service?
