Made the jump today with Beta 2.
Everything is smooth. 

Lost several modules from GoodLock, but that is to be expected. Not my first beta rodeo.

I do miss Samsung Finder.
This is a deep integrated search for the phone and it seems to be M.I.A.

I am only able to locate it through the top of the recent apps screen. It is really odd that it would be removed completely unless they're replacing it with something else. 😕
I never realized how much I used it until it was gone.

You mean the spy glass :magnifying_glass_tilted_left: at the top. Yeah, I tap that and it does nothing. Crashing in the background.

Mine is working. Have you cleared caches?

To find it in settings you need to enable "show system apps" in the sort menus (the little icon to the right of "your apps " header.

To get to finder settings you would use the 3 for menu in finder but finder isn't working for you. 1693750627968_1693750627951_0.jpg

Did you try clearing cache and fixing apps in recovery? Sometimes things get "stuck" when upgrading from one OS version to another.

It's an option in the recovery menu.

You can get to recovery either by ADB if you have it (adb reboot recovery) or by turning off the phone completely then pressing and holding volume up and power u til the Samsung logo. Continue holding volume up until you enter recovery.
