NavStar
Users who enable transparent hints in Navistar are facing non-responsive keys on the AI introduction screen. This is due to an overlap between Navistar settings and the new navigation bar. Samsung is aware and will release a fix soon. Users yet to upgrade to 6.1 should update Navistar first to avoid this problem.
AOD Changes
One UI 6.1 update the connected animation and setting structure for AOD:
- The AOD clock is now integrated with the lock screen clock and cannot be set separately.
- The manual brightness setting menu has been removed from the AOD settings
For those who prefer separate AOD and lock screen settings, Good Lock will provide a solution through the upcoming Always on Display (ver 8.7.99.11) and LockStar (v6.1.0.11) updates.
Flip Cover Glitch
A new bug prevents the Good Lock app from launching on the cover screen via the power button. This issue is arising from a recent modification to access the Secure Folder app from the cover screen and requires a software fix, which will be addressed in the next update.
Keyboard Issue
With improved dictation performance, new keyboard buttons have been introduced to enable easier voice input. However, some users report missing voice buttons, leaving a space instead. Samsung is actively working to replicate and resolve this issue internally.
As a temporary fix, disable the “Show keyboard buttons in navigation bar” option in the default and additional keyboard setting
Samsung apologizes for any inconvenience caused by these issues and is working regularly to provide fixes. However, the company has released new NavStar and AOD updates that are expected to fix some of these issues.
One UI 6.1’s AOD app update improves widgets and icon alignment
Meta will allow WhatsApp users to generate AI image of themselves using artificial intelligence. WABetaInfo discovered in WhatsApp Beta v2.24.14.13 that developers are working on the development of an optional feature to allow users to generate AI images.
WhatsApp is working to deploy the AI image generation feature with the next update. It will let users take a single set of photos, which Meta AI will then use to generate AI images. The given image will be adjustable, making the AI generate images accurately.
Developers intend to bring full control over this feature to users. Ensuring security and privacy, WhatsApp’s image creator will allow you to delete setup photos at any time through the Meta AI settings. Tapping the “Imaging me” button will begin the Meta AI magic on setup photo.
As the function is under development, more updates may arrive before deployment. Once the development phase concludes, testing will take place on the Beta channel. We expect the feature to be rolled out on the Stable channel before July ends.
WhatsApp Beta 2.24.14.7
With the previous Beta (v2.24.14.7) release, it was revealed that WhatsApp was working on a feature to choose the Meta AI Llama model. This upcoming section will allow users to select between different Llama models (Llama 3-70B or Llama 3-405B) for their AI interactions.
