Smooth after One UI 8.5

Just updated A56 (variant: 12gb ram / 256gb memory) in Asia Pakistan.

Phone feels light, Buttery smooth and more flagship like.

Battery has to be tested using since 1hr from the update battery drain seems better than previous version!

One Ui 8.5 finally

So the update is available on my imported CAC region model (I just checked the box and the phone is from Kazakhstan) so I guess, maybe Asian adjacent countries should be ready.

How's your battery on UI.8.5 update?

To those who have already updated their A56 to UI 8.5, how's the battery performance on UI 8.5? Does it drain fast or does it improve? Thank you.

Share your quick panel setup

We finally got OneUI 8.5 on the Galaxy A56. Awesome! So we got more new things to customize. One of these new things is the ability to edit the quick access panel. How did you customize your panel? You can share it down below.

OneUI 8.5 Quick Panel Icon Animation Bug

Is anyone else experiencing this? Since I updated to UI 8.5, the animation when I click the icons it just switches instantly instead of animating.

I built an app that exposes Samsung DeX on the Galaxy A56 so you don't have to.

Starting in One UI 8.5, the loophole in the settings search for 'keyboard' was fixed, so you can no longer access it that way. The features are still there, they're just hidden. I made a simple utility tool to trigger those DeX-related activities in the Settings app; feel free to use it. No special permissions are required just use it as is to access Samsung DeX features that are available on our devices but hidden.

Note: This was only tested in Galaxy A56

Disclaimer: This is a 100% free, open-source project. I am not getting any kickbacks, ad revenue, or anything of the sort. I’m only sharing the GitHub link so anyone interested can audit the code to see exactly what the app does and confirm it’s just a simple activity launcher.

Access to Dex on One UI 8.5

  1. to access dex in 8.5, install Activity Launcher from playstore
  2. open the app and search the keyword "DeX"
  3. find the Settings app in the list and tap on it and see if anything related to Samsung Dex is still there then tap it and launch activity

then can anyone confirm this?

  1. the wallpaper is black on dex desktop
  2. you can no longer use the mouse regardless if connected to the external display and to the phone via wired(type C mouse to phone, standard to external display) and wireless(bluetooth)

if you have a touch screen external display, then you can still navigate.
