Dangerous background image paralyzes Android smartphones

Now a new background image is causing many Android smartphones to crash. In the worst case, all of your data may even be gone!

The wallpaper is a breathtaking sunset. As beautiful as it is to look at, it is also dangerous. A striking number of Samsung smartphones crash when you set the image as the background image.

The smartphone then goes into an infinite loop mode. Even if you restart, even in safe mode, you cannot escape this loop. So you have an expensive piece of paperweight in your hand.

In addition to a striking number of Samsung smartphones, the Google Pixel 2 and Pixel 3 are also affected. Oddly enough, devices from OnePlus and Huawei don't. This could be because the background images are only stored in the launcher and not in the system.

So what can you do? First you should first try to delete the image in Safe mode. If that doesn't work, then the only help is to completely reset the smartphone via the boot loader. The problem with this is that all your data is gone!

So the warning applies, please do not even try to save the picture as wallpaper!
