Stock wallpapers are in Featured section with One UI 7 beta
Samsung has introduced dozens of new features and improvements with the One UI 7 beta update. Since the release of the One UI 7 beta update, there have been some minor features and changes in some places. Some Galaxy S24 users reported that the latest One UI 7 beta made some major changes to the stock wallpapers tab, hiding the options from the section.
Every Galaxy device comes with dedicated stock wallpapers in the Featured section of the Wallpaper & Style settings menu. However, the One UI 7 brings Stock (Interactive), Frame, Effect, and Color wallpapers together in the Featured section.
Meanwhile, a Galaxy S24 user shared that the Interactive and Stock wallpaper options are not removed. When selecting Interactive under Settings > Wallpaper & Style > Featured, you will see the brand-new option “Variations” at the very bottom.
When you choose the Variation option, you choose the color options for the corresponding style of stock wallpaper.
Meanwhile, a Samsung community moderator responded that this may have been done intentionally as part of beta changes, or it could have been an oversight during the transition to the new version.
Thanks for pointing this out! It seems like the stock wallpaper selection has been limited or altered with the Beta One UI 7 update. This could be intentional as part of the beta changes, or it might be an oversight during the transition to the new version.
Here are a few things you can try:
1. Check for the Wallpapers App:
Go to Settings > Wallpaper & Style > Wallpaper Services and see if there are any additional options or downloads available. Samsung sometimes updates wallpaper collections separately.
2. Explore Galaxy Themes:
Open the Galaxy Themes app and navigate to the Wallpapers section. While this isn’t the same as stock wallpapers, you might find some Samsung-curated options there.
3. Back Up & Restore Stock Wallpapers:
If you have another Samsung device running a stable version of One UI, you can transfer its stock wallpapers to your S24 Plus. Alternatively, look online for Samsung stock wallpaper collections for manual download.
4. Submit Feedback:
Since this is a beta version, your feedback through the Samsung Members app can help highlight the issue and potentially bring back the missing stock wallpapers in future updates.
