One UI 7 clock icon no longer dynamic

[CatGymnPaint]

Anyone else noticed this? The clock icon on the home screen used to show what time it was. I liked that. Now with this Android 15, One UI 7 update, it's static. 👎

I just noticed that the calendar icon is now static too. 👎 😠

I just looked and it's updating the time on a Fold 5 I would suggest wiping the cache partition to see if that fixes it

Here's a step-by-step guide:

• Turn off your phone: Make sure your S23 is completely off. 

• Enter Recovery Mode: Simultaneously press and hold the Volume Up and Power buttons. 

• Navigate to Wipe Cache Partition: Use the Volume Down button to navigate the Recovery menu and highlight "Wipe cache partition". 

• Select Wipe Cache Partition: Press the Power button to select the option. 

• Confirm the Action: You'll be asked to confirm, so use the Volume Down button to select "Yes" and then press the Power button. 

• Reboot the System: After the cache wipe is complete, "Reboot system now" will be highlighted. Press the Power button to restart your phone

@CatGymnPaint Do you have a theme installed? Typically this issue is caused by using a theme. 

[CatGymnPaint]

No theme. But I do use Good Lock and I just used it to get back the look that was removed. (Icon colors)

[CatGymnPaint]

That was it. Good Lock icon theme. The new system icons are so ugly. I just sent the Good Lock team feedback about this. I hope they can issue a fix so that themed icons can be dynamic too.

Lack of proper icon pack support is a longstanding issue. Hopefully Samsung addresses this in the near future!

[CatGymnPaint]

Yeah. So far it's either put up with static icons that look nice or the blooming ugly ones that are dynamic. 🫤 🤷
