Galaxy S22 One UI 5.0 beta update removes Bixby text call, fixes more bugs

Samsung’s official changelog claims that the company has fixed various bugs, including those that forced the Galaxy Watch app to close, caused camera autofocus to fail and poor image quality, and rebooted the phone.

The new software also fixes an issue that prevented users from adding fingerprints. Some people have also complained about the lack of sound to unlock the phone, and Samsung has fixed that issue with the latest update. Other issues included a loud voice even after the call volume was turned down, a background that was incomplete, a Close All option missing from the multitasking menu, and an app forcefully closing when editing images. Those problems are solved.

Samsung said it removed it Bixby text call feature from the new One UI 5.0 beta update. The Bixby text call feature, which was published last weekuses AI to convert voice (during a call) to text and display it on the screen. Users can then type text as a reply to the caller and Bixby will convert that text to audio and transmit it to the person on the other end of the call. This way, the user does not have to talk or listen to join the voice call.

Reports also claim that it is a new beta version One UI 5.0 brings smoother animations. Obviously, the framerate is reduced and the animations are similar to those Galaxy Z Flip 4 running One user interface 4.1.1.

One UI 5.0 Beta 5 may be the last beta update before the stable release of One UI 5.0

This could be the final beta version of One UI 5.0, and it could be released in other markets, including Germany, India, the UK, and the US, in the next few days. Samsung said it will release a stable version Android 13– based on One UI 5.0 for the Galaxy S22 series before the end of this month.
