Revert OneUI 7 Enterily?

[CountChappy]

How do I revert or rollback the OneUI 7 update?

The notification & settings swipe down feature, in conjunction with the app drawer vertical layout, is a pretty egregious muscle memory and reflex change. I would like to revert to OneUI 6 or disable these settings. Does anyone know how to revert the OneUI Update? I've read some mentions of a tool named Odin?

I would like to keep my Samsung, but honestly ... if future updates are more interested in changing HOW I am forced to interact with my phone rather than giving me new features or security enhancements, it might be time to look at competitors.

Don't think you can

Extremely unfortunate to hear. Thank you for responding.

It all good do you not like ui7

Hey there and welcome to the Samsung UK and EU Community Forum

I'm afraid it is broadly not possible to roll back major OS upgrades.

The new One UI7 has enhanced security and other fictionally which is necessary for your device.

Appreciate software is a bit marmite, you either like it or you don't but you do need to be on the most up to date software to protect your device.

On a separate note, you could try downloading GoodLock and customise your device that way.

Both the notification design and the app draw can be reverted in settings

Hi and Welcome.

1. For the Notifications press the pencil icon > panel settings> Together.

And for the app drawer.

Click the Three Dots near the search bar at the bottom > sort > custom.

WOW! Thank you!! This is the only solution that did not involve a third party application. Kudos!
