Samsung has rolled out a massive patch to resolve the Edge Lighting+ issue that had been affecting some Galaxy devices running One UI 7. The issue had been making apps close and fail to function as required at random, and this was making life unbearable for users who had been relying on getting personalized notifications through the Edge Lighting+ feature. Samsung has fixed all these problems with the new patch and enhanced the feature's stability and compatibility.

What is Edge Lighting+?

Edge Lighting+ is among the Samsung Good Lock modules that provides richer visual notifications via the inclusion of glowing effects around the edges of the screen. Galaxy users employ it extensively for a fashion-friendly method of receiving notifications other than sound or vibration. The feature is useful in case the phone is placed face-down because it offers a feeble but noticeable notification signal.

The Issue: Crashes and Surprise Shutdowns

Since the One UI 7 release, application crashes while Edge Lighting+ is used were typical for most users. The issue was largely at the boot stage, when the module crashed during processing lighting effects. Users further noticed Edge Lighting+ didn't work properly when combined with other custom features like:

  • Prism Lighting
  • Double-Tap Notification Pop-Up
  • Always-On Display Improvements

These clashes resulted in a negative user experience, with certain functions turning themselves off when used in conjunction.

Samsung Solution: The Edge Lighting+ Update

Samsung soon resolved the problem and released the Edge Lighting+ version 7.0.00.12 update to address such problems. The update:

  • Resolves the startup crash problem
  • Improves compatibility with other Good Lock features
  • Improves stability and overall performance

Thanks to these updates, users can now freely enjoy seamless Edge Lighting effects without crashing and interference with other custom features.

How to Upgrade Edge Lighting+ on Your Galaxy Device

Samsung invites all the users who are interested to update the Edge Lighting+ module to the most recent. Here is how you can do it:

  • Open the Galaxy Store app.
  • Press the Menu button and go to Updates.
  • Search for Edge Lighting+ in the available updates list.

Samsung's Commitment to Improving User Experience

This rapid bug patch release is one of the efforts of Samsung to listen to customers and innovate day by day. Samsung is also listening to the voice of customers day by day and rapidly patching bugs that interfere with the Galaxy device performance.

Samsung also committed to creating other Good Lock modules such as Edge Lighting+, Theme Park, Wonderland, and Keys Café to support further development of a more customizable and seamless user experience.

Conclusion

The Edge Lighting+ issue in One UI 7 Galaxy phones was a setback for users accustomed to visual notification use. Samsung's quick patch (v7.0.00.12), however, was able to solve the issue and enhance compatibility with other features.
