Galaxy Wearable

Samsung has already released three Android 12-based One UI 4 Beta updates to the Galaxy S21 series smartphone users in several markets. Going ahead, the company has also expanded its One UI Beta Program for the Galaxy Z Fold 3 and Galaxy Z Flip 3 devices in Korea and India.

Meanwhile, it looks like the users are unable to connect the Galaxy Watch and/or Galaxy Buds after installing the One UI 4 Beta as the Korean Beta Operations Manager just recommended updating the Galaxy Wearable app to the latest version.

Here’s what Beta Operations Manager said

For those who say that wearable devices that have been used well do not work well after installing the beta version, please update the Galaxy Wearable app to the latest.

Adding to this, the official also said that if the One UI 4 Beta testers still have problems even after updating the plug-in of the currently installed Samsung Wearable, please update the Samsung Members app to the latest version and report the error.

One UI 6.1 folder background issue to be resolved in next Home Up update

Samsung One UI 6.1 Hoem Up new features

One UI 6.1 update offers several new features and Galaxy AI for the Galaxy S23 series as well as some unexpected bugs and changes, particularly in the way folder backgrounds are displayed. But the good news is that Samsung will fix the One UI 6.1 folder background issue with the next Home Up update.

Previously, with One UI 6.0, users had the option to adjust the background blur to a near-transparent 1% using the Home Up Good Lock app feature. However, the recent upgrade to One UI 6.1 has resulted in an unexpected opacity of folder backgrounds.

Users have reported that despite attempts to turn the Home Up feature off and on like a reset, the folder background remains unaffected and completely opaque. This is different from the Apps screen, which still responds to adjustments in HomeUp settings.

In response to these concerns, a community moderator has confirmed that a solution is underway with a new update of the Home Up app. The next update of this Good Lock module will resolve the non-responsive background blur control issue for folders. The update is expected to be available soon and will restore the customization options that users have been missing.

Samsung LockStar AOD issue

Samsung Galaxy users have encountered an issue with the LockStar app, where the Always On Display (AOD) preview does not match the actual display after the setting. This difference is particularly noticeable with the size of the notification icon. It has become a source of discomfort for users who have updated both LockStar and AOD to their latest versions.

A Reddit user reported that despite installing the latest updates and customizing the AOD as per LockStar’s preview, the result on the screen was different with a notably smaller notification icon. Even after trying to reset the settings and change the clock style, the issue with the LockStar app did not get fixed.
