Samsung users are facing the Lockscreen bug with OneUI 5.1 and now it has been fixed
Samsung Galaxy phones running OneUI 5.1 have been experiencing lock screen issues, which the company has finally acknowledged. Several users claimed that after updating their phone to OneUI 5.1, the Lock Screen stopped working properly.
Several affected owners shared their concerns on social media, saying that after the update, the phone’s Lock screen would act randomly or render the phone unusable with a blank screen.
Samsung has already noticed the problems and promised to fix the problem on all phones with OneUI 5.1. The company quickly released a new update that fixes the lock screen bug, and many who have installed the update have confirmed that the bug has been fixed and their lock screen is now working normally.
If your phone is still encountering the error, we recommend that you check your phone settings for a new software update alert, which will surely fix the problem. Just tap on the download and install option to get the new version of OneUI and reboot your phone to see that the Lock screen is working fine.
It’s great to see Samsung catching the problem quickly and providing a fix as well. Some users also claim that OneUI 5.1 caused other issues like slow phone after the update, while some people have battery drain issues. Samsung has not yet acknowledged these issues, but we expect the next update to fix other issues people are facing after installing OneUI 5.1.
Since Android 14 is already available for non-Pixel devices, it is likely that Samsung has already started working on OneUI 6.0, which should be based on the new version of Android. The company may reveal details of the new version when it launches the new Galaxy Z Fold 5 series, which is expected to happen earlier this year, reportedly sometime in July.
