Samsung One UI 8.5: dark mode chaos prompts quick workarounds

Android Authority reports that Samsung’s One UI 8.5 update is triggering dark‑mode glitches in Google apps across Galaxy devices (including S25/S24), showing a mix of black, gray, and light-gray UI. The root cause appears to be a clash between Google’s Material You styling and Samsung’s updated color palette. Workarounds include using a forked Shizuku to revert colors or tweaking the Color Palette/Wallpaper settings, with a potential fix expected in a future update. Samsung has not issued an official statement yet; users can report the issue via the Members app.

Samsung Tests 3D-Curved OLED as It Eyes iPhone 20 Rivalry

Rumors say Samsung has been quietly developing a 3D curved OLED display (three-sided curvature) since 2025, potentially for a Galaxy S28 Ultra, to compete with Apple's anticipated iPhone 20 featuring a quad-curved display. If true, Samsung may be leveraging its role as Apple’s display supplier, though the specifics are unconfirmed; the timeline points to early 2028 after Apple’s launch, and the technology could also reach Apple’s rivals.

Edge Shuts Copilot Mode as AI Features Go Native Across Desktop and Mobile

Trump Mobile Preorder Sparks Questions About MAGA Loyalty and Scams

Morning Shots argues that Trump's post-presidency ventures reveal loyalty-driven revenue schemes and political maneuvers: Trump Mobile sold a $100 deposit for a $499 made-in-America phone that never shipped, with terms later recast to a conditional opportunity rather than a purchase; the piece also details South Carolina's redistricting fight to diminish James Clyburn's seat and notes GOP tensions and ambassadorship picks as signs of a party chasing loyalty over policy.

Microsoft keeps hope alive for Xbox mobile store as it leans on open app markets

Microsoft says the idea of an Xbox mobile store isn’t dead, but the project is paused while it leans on app‑market openness. The company has pursued a mobile store since 2022, counting on regulatory shifts (like Epic v. Google and the EU Digital Markets Act) to pry open Google and Apple stores or enable sideloading, and is examining a web‑based version. Officials argue the goal is cross‑screen access for Xbox content, but current app‑store rules keep the plan on hold for now.

Comcast beats estimates as mobile growth offsets broadband losses in Q1 2026

Comcast topped revenue and earnings estimates for Q1 2026 with adjusted EPS of $0.79 on $31.46 billion in revenue and net income of $2.17 billion. The wireless segment added 435,000 lines for a total of 9.7 million mobile customers, while broadband losses narrowed to 65,000 (vs. 183,000 a year ago) and cable-TV losses totaled 322,000. NBCUniversal benefited from a strong sports slate, with media revenue up about 61% to $7.28 billion and Peacock subscribers reaching 46 million, though media adjusted EBITDA swung to a loss due to Olympics/Super Bowl and NBA rights costs. Overall, adjusted EBITDA was about $7.93 billion.}
