A Good Lock plugin crushing Samsung Edge Panel, fix is coming

Edge Panel is a signature feature of Samsung One UI, but a Good Lock module badly hurt its functionality. Samsung, meanwhile, found the root cause, which is linked to One Hand Operation +, and a fix is on its way.

Samsung users complained that the Edge Panel isn’t triggering with a swipe. The problem was widespread, but targeted specifically the users who have been using the Good Lock’s One Hand Operation + plugin.

Edge Panel comes preinstalled, while Good Lock has to be downloaded manually from Galaxy Store. Good Lock is a launcher, and modules are the ones that unlock various new features and customization tools for the users.

Therefore, users didn’t simply find that the problem with Edge Panel is tied to a buggy One Hand Operation + module. Meanwhile, a Samsung moderator confirmed that the problem will be addressed with a future/next update.

The mod also shared a workaround if you can’t disable the Good Lock module. You need to launch an app that supports landscape mode and rotate the screen, then rotate the screen back horizontally to make Edge Panel functional again.

If you use Edge Panel more than the One Hand Operation +, I recommend that you simply disable the module for a while. Samsung is working on a fix, which could take a few days to arrive on Galaxy devices.

Until then, give the module a break so Edge Panel offer optimal user experience.
