As the issue is appearing after the warranty gets expired, users have no other option but to get their Galaxy Z Fold 3’s cracked screen replaced at their own expense. It has been noted that the users have used the device carefully and there’s no sign of trauma or damage.
As claimed by users, the crease/wrinkle area of the Galaxy Z Fold 3’s screen got cracked even without dropping the device. When contacted, the company representative referred her to uBreakiFix, where the screen replacement costs a whopping $800.
There are more similar reports on the Reddit threads, where users complain that the screen is getting cracked for no reason and everything happened right after the warranty expired. Reddit user Snoo reported that they noticed the crack in the middle of the screen after carefully using the phone for over a year.
A couple of months back, we also faced the screen protector peel-off issue on our Z Fold 3 review unit. The company charged $20 for screen protector replacement, which should be free of cost for at least 2 years. On the screen crack problem, Samsung has not yet made any official statement.
Consumers living in the US can get in touch with Samsung’s CEO to explain the issue by attaching a sufficient amount of photos of screen cracks. You should get answered as early as possible, while, there’s still a way of going legal against Samsung regarding the quality defect.

Do you have a Samsung Galaxy phone? Then you might have noticed that your screen captures look weird lately. The picture might be fuzzy, rainbow-colored, or overlapping. This is not because of your phone, but it is a bug in the One UI 5.1/One UI 5.1.1 software that affects the image processing.
Don’t worry, there is a solution for this problem. Samsung has released a software update that fixes the issue and makes your screen captures look normal again. All you need to do is to update your device software.
For that, you just need to open Settings >> Software Update > Download and Install. This new software will also make your phone work better and more secure, so don’t wait any longer. Update your Galaxy phone now and get rid of this Samsung screen capture issue.
Some users of Samsung Galaxy smartphones have reported a problem with the lock screen, where the screen turns black and only the top indicator bar and bottom navigation bar are visible. This happened when an app on the lock screen is closed while the phone is locked.
To fix this issue, you can turn the screen off and on, or fold and unfold the device if it is foldable. However, this is not a permanent solution. To prevent the black screen issue from happening again, you need to update your device software to the latest version.
Samsung has announced that the company plans to release software that improves the phenomenon and fixes the bug. To update your device software, you just need to go to Settings >> Software update >> Download and install.
Do you use Android Auto and Google Maps to find your way in the car? If yes, then you may have noticed a small problem recently. Sometimes, Google Maps doesn’t close when you get out of the car. It keeps showing you directions on your phone, which is very annoying and confusing.
This issue seems to have emerged after the latest updates of Android Auto and Google Maps, which were released last week. It affects various Android phones such as Samsung and Pixel.
It mainly occurs on Android Auto v10.0 and Google Maps v11.88 version. The only solution at the moment is to manually exit the navigation by tapping on the corresponding option.
Currently, the cause of this issue is unknown, but it is expected to be resolved soon. Until then, remember to check your phone and exit navigation when you get out of the car.
