Recent Samsung flagships are accused of being affected by a grainy display issue. Meanwhile, some users of Apple’s new M4 iPad Pro reported having a similar experience. Some iPad Pro users (via MacRumors) take their complaints regarding grainy screens to social media platforms.
iPad Pro models affected by grainy screen problems reveal the problem in dark environments. When the OLED display is set at a low to medium brightness, content is displayed in gray or muted colors. Some users denote it as a sandy screen, which looks blurry by pixels.
Samsung hasn’t yet fixed the grainy screen problem on Galaxy S24 smartphones. However, IceUniverse believes that Apple will soon acknowledge the iPad screen defect and fix it through firmware. Later, Samsung will follow the suite and benefit Galaxy S24 users.
Whether it’s an OLED hardware fault or generated by firmware remains a question for now. Meanwhile, OEMs should try fixing it as soon as possible as it became a big hurdle to consumers. Continuous controversy may also lead to harming sales and trust concerns.
Pay attention, Samsung Display has also faced some yield concerns in the initial production of the 11-inch panel. Due to this, Apple transferred some of its orders from Samsung D to LG Display, which also supplies OLED for 13-inch models.
We hope Apple will acknowledge the issue and fix it. In this way, the problem of Samsung S24 is also expected to be solved. Because “Samsung imitates everything Apple does” https://t.co/HztR5F5TBg

Facing Google Maps app crashes on Android? Try this quick fix
![Google Maps Crashing issues](https://www.sammyfans.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/02/Gooogle-apps.jpg)
Several Android users have recently reported that Google Maps keeps crashing. The issue affects Android users using both stable and beta versions of the app, specifically with versions 11.144.x and 11.145.x.
Users on various Android devices including Pixel and Samsung Galaxy phones have noted that Google Maps opens normally but then closes suddenly after a few seconds. This makes the app unusable for checking maps or getting directions.
Notably, the issue seems to be more common for those on the Android 15 Beta, though people with the stable version are also facing the same.
If you’re experiencing this issue, you can try a temporary solution to fix it. You can uninstall recent updates of Google Maps, just need to go to the App info page, and tap on the Uninstall updates option and this may help to fix.
Since Google Maps is often preinstalled on devices, you can’t completely uninstall it. Older versions of the app don’t seem to have this problem, so rolling back to a previous version could be a solution for now.
As of now, Google hasn’t acknowledged the issue or commented on releasing a fix. Not everyone is having this issue, so if your Google Maps is still working, that’s good. If you facing the Google Maps issue, you need to pause updates until this issue is resolved. Stay tuned for updates from Google for a permanent solution.

![Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 Pro Manager update](https://www.sammyfans.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/Samsung-Galaxy-Buds-3-series-2.jpg)
Samsung is aware of the issue related to the sound quality of the Galaxy Buds 3 Pro when using the “Concert Hall” feature in the Sound Assistant app. Some people have noticed that the sound becomes muffled and distorted, especially with music that has a lot of bass. This problem only occurs when the “Concert Hall” mode is turned off.
Users of the Galaxy Buds 3 Pro reported that the issue is related to the software of the Buds, not a hardware problem. However, users of other devices, like the 2nd generation AirPods, don’t seem to have the same issue, which shows the issue is specific to how the Sound Assistant app works with the Buds Pro 3.
According to the community moderator, Samsung will resolve the Galaxy Buds 3 Pro sound quality issue with a new software update. It means a quick fix through an app update isn’t possible.
In the meantime, Samsung recommends turning off the “Concert Hall” feature to improve sound quality. The company is working to fix the issue soon.
The Korean tech giant plans to include a solution in the next software update for the Galaxy Buds Pro 3. The team is making sure the “Concert Hall” feature works better after future updates.
