Just to add that from a GUI point of view, I can't determine if it is just hanging (doing nothing) or "looping indefinitely".
Using KDE Connect SMS 25.08.2 and was not experiencing it until a few days ago (I didn't track if the app was updated though).
KDE Connect 25.08.2 is OK and non-SMS features look OK.

Let me know if you need logs or any other information.

Thanks a lot!
