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.
Samsung has recently confirmed a performance issue affecting Galaxy devices, where users report a slowdown, especially when opening apps. This issue seems to occur after updating the device’s Google System Software and using the device extensively.
The Korean tech giant has released a patch to fix this performance slowdown issue caused by a Google System update. The fix improves app launch times and overall device performance. Still, Galaxy devices that are already suffering from this slowdown require a restart to eliminate the issue.
If your Galaxy device is still not performing optimally, Samsung recommends restarting it. This can be quickly done by accessing the Quick Panel, tapping the Power Button, and selecting Restart.
The company reassures users that these measures should resolve any lag and restore the device to its normal speed. You can contact Samsung customer support if the problem persists after a restart.
Samsung Messages app was reportedly crashing due to an issue caused by Google Meet. Recently, some Galaxy users reported having problems with Samsung Messages, which is addressed if the community moderator’s statement is believed to be true.
Over the past day, Samsung Messages users faced regular crashes, rendering the app unusable. The users have complained through Reddit forums, with reports indicating it to be an issue that appeared on a large number of Galaxy smartphones.
Galaxy users tried clearing the app cache and data, followed by phone restart, but it didn’t work. It was solved with the update released to the Google Meet app and consumers are advised to update it to the latest version through Google Play Store.
Google has issued an update for the Meet app. Please check to be sure all apps are fully updated.
As Samsung Messages kept crashing, Galaxy users faced a lot of issues. Google Messages may have helped them stay connected with the communication. However, Google Meet was reportedly the accused behind the failure of Samsung’s Messages app.
Samsung Messages app comes pre-installed on Galaxy smartphones and tablets. It’s a Google Messages alternative yet a clone installed in Galaxy devices. Powered by RCS, this application provides users with the convenience of communication over SMS/MMS.
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
