One UI 6.1 Always On Display overlapping issue fix coming, check temporary solution
After the recent One UI 6.1 update, several Samsung users have reported an issue with the Always On Display (AOD) feature when using LockStar. This issue displays clock numbers or apps overlap during the transition of time on the lock screen.
The issue is particularly noticeable when the time shifts in minutes and apps. For example, a user reported when the time progresses from 11:57 to 11:58, it results in the digits superimposing and creates a confusing display.
Several Galaxy users are affected by this issue, and the issue persists despite subsequent firmware updates. The overlapping issue on Always On Display after One UI 6.1 is not only a rare occurrence but happens frequently enough to cause significant concern among users.
In response, a community moderator has acknowledged the One UI 6.1 overlapping AOD issue. He stated that it occurs for those using the “Automatically Restart” function and confirmed a software update to resolve this issue.
However, due to the variable nature of software update schedules, a precise resolution date cannot be provided.
As a temporary solution, users are advised to either disable the Automatic Restart function through Settings >> Device Care >> Auto Optimization or to turn off LockStar entirely.
The inconvenience caused by this issue has been recognized, and users are asked for their patience while a permanent fix is in development.
Several Samsung Galaxy users are facing issues with the Edge Lighting feature after updating to One UI 6.1.1. This issue has caused inconvenience and frustration for those who rely on these features for notifications.
According to some reports in the community, the Samsung Edge Lighting feature stops working after the One UI 6.1.1 update. Users have to either erase or disable the Edge Lighting+ app to get it back.
Fortunately, Samsung has acknowledged the Edge Lighting+ issue and apologized for the problem it has caused. The community moderator has confirmed that Samsung is aware of the issue and is working on a solution.
The company plans to improve the compatibility between the Edge Lighting feature and the Edge Lighting+ Good Lock app in an upcoming software update, which should allow both features to work together without needing to turn one off.
However, the community moderator has also mentioned that it’s difficult to give a specific timeline for when this update will be available. The schedule for software updates can change for various circumstances.
Users are advised to be patient as Samsung works on resolving the issue and a new software update will be soon available with a fix.
For now, affected users can disable Edge Lighting+ to use Edge Lighting functionality. While this is not a permanent solution, it allows users to continue receiving notifications until the official fix is released.
If your Samsung phone’s home screen is freezing or rebooting after updating to One UI 6.1.1, you’re not alone. Many Samsung users are facing issues where their home screen is not functioning properly. This problem is particularly frustrating for people as it hinders a good user experience.
One of the reasons for crashing or freezing is that changing or disabling system apps through development mode or certain apps might affect the Home screen on your Samsung smartphone. When essential system components are altered, it can cause instability.
Fortunately, Samsung has shared a solution for this issue. To address and potentially resolve it, users can try resetting the app settings.
Here’s how you do this:
- Navigate to the device’s Settings menu.
- Go to the ‘Apps’ section.
- Tap the three vertical dots located at the top right corner of the screen to open more options.
- Select ‘Reset app settings’ from the dropdown menu.
It is important to note that resetting app settings will restore all app preferences to their default state. This means that notification settings and default app choices will be reset. Users need to set these settings according to their preferences.
If the issue persists despite resetting app settings, or if you encounter any other inconveniences, you can contact the Samsung customer service call center at 1588-3366. The support team can provide expert guidance to help resolve the problem effectively.
WhatsApp has released an essential update for its beta users, which fixes an issue with locked chats and filters. The new update is available through version 2.24.19.35 on the Google Play Beta Program.
The fresh beta update addresses an issue found in the previous beta version, 2.24.19.16. This beta version brought the Meta AI Assistant feature to help businesses by providing personalized insights and creating content for their catalogs, including images and ads.
However, users of this update encountered a major issue as the locked chats and chat filters stopped working properly. Mainly, users found that locked chats were missing from their interface, and they could not use filters to manage their conversations.
Several WhatsApp beta testers tried to fix the problem by restarting their devices or force-stopping the app, but these actions did not resolve the issue. This bug makes it difficult to access important conversations and navigate through messages.
Fortunately, WhatsApp has now fixed the issue with locked chats and filters through its latest beta update. After installing this update, users can once again access their locked chats and use chat filters.
If you are also testing the WhatsApp beta version on your Android devices, install the latest update to enjoy a smoother and error-free experience.
