Photo ambient wallpaper fix

[arianwen27]

Heyo. Since the update to one ui 8, ai photo ambient wallpaper has been broken for me. Sent an error report, rebooted, the usual steps.

Now, I'm here because I actually found a fix. I don't have a way to tell samsung I fixed it in my error report but hey, this might help some of you.

Open the apps menu, show system apps, force stop and clear the cache of these 3 apps.

Doing this fixes the ai wallpaper.

Of note, I think rebooting breaks it again. So you have to do this every reboot. Force stopping the top app might be enough to fix it but I'm not going to reboot 5 times to test it

Done, it stopped raining so cant see if its gonna work for me yet 😂

You can manually set a location in the weather app for it to use. Just go around the world till you find the weather you want, then set that as your location.

Once added, you have to drag it to be above your real location, then the wallpaper will be of that manual location

I'll wait, I will probably forget to change it back 😂
