If your Samsung Galaxy phone's home screen freezes or restarts after updating your device to One UI 6.1.1, know that you are not alone. Many Galaxy users are facing a broken home screen. This is an extremely annoying problem that severely affects the experience of using the product.

One of the reasons why the home screen freezes is because a system application is disabled or an application affects the home screen. Changing system components can cause the product to operate unstable.

Luckily, Samsung has shared a way to fix this problem. You just need to restore the factory settings for the application by following these steps:

  1. Open the Settings app on your device.
  2. Select the Apps section.
  3. Tap the three-dot icon in the upper right corner of the screen.
  4. Select Restore app settings.

Please note that all apps will be reset to their default settings after following the above instructions, including notification settings and default apps. You can reset these settings to your liking.

If the problem persists despite resetting the app or if you encounter any other errors, you can contact Samsung for advice and support completely free of charge.
