Exclusive: Screen off animation broken after the September patch for the Galaxy Tab S8
Recently, Samsung has pushed the security patch for the Galaxy Tab S8 series that allowed the tablet to be updated to the September 2025 security patch (build DYI1), according to the quarterly security update schedule for the tablet. It is built on top of One UI 7 with Android 15 as the base system.
While evaluating the version, we’ve noticed an odd bug where the screen off animation wouldn’t play when either the screen turns off by itself or you turn it off by pressing the side button. This bug didn’t exist in the July security patch (build DYF4). However, it didn’t impact the functionality of the tablet; applications open very fast and everything works perfectly in One UI 7.
You can see the bug in action in a video we posted here:

As we are just a few days away from the rollout of the One UI 8 update for the Galaxy Tab S8, we hope that this bug gets fixed in the update that is being worked on right now. According to Güncel Miyiz, the tablet should receive the update globally on the 16th of October, with the Korean release date being earlier according to recent rollout logs.
