A14 update to UI 7.

Since this update on Wednesday (27/8/25) my phone will become unresponsive on the screen, unable to access any on screen apps or even do restarts on screen, side buttons will do a restart, so basically useless now. This can last for several hours, then will work OK for a few hours.

I've removed the phone from the case just in case it was that, nope, still the same.

With the change in screen graphics it now looks like a child's phone for under 10's.

I think the time for accepting samsung updates has come to an end.

Try to wipe phone cache partition
Power off the device.
•  a USB-C cable to a PC or another device.
• Hold Volume Up + Side Button until Recovery Menu appears.
• Select Wipe cache partition/ Confirm Reboot system.

I have the same problem! I have to keep using volume up/side button to get phone to swipe. It'll swipe twice then stops swiping again. So annoying, happened after this so called 'upgrade'

I know, apps are different, phone is actually slower to use I think. I'm no techy, but I try to keep up. Wish I hadn't bothered installing it! I won't in future....

I've worked out it will.swipe 3 times to open then needs re-setting again. I really don't have time for this faffing !
