Safe mode can fix if issue is related to user app, system app still remain same. So if happened with some system mod it can not fix in safemode
This kind of issue usually related to DPI or modules (magisk/exposed/lsposed) so worth to try that. Though safemode will auto disable magisk modules so first only disable module will be further helpful to narrow down issue. If that doesn't fix then better to try with safemode

open the camera app and go full in the settings on top of the display, this will hide any cutout or program modifying the statusbar.

Or use safe mode

First, completely power off the phone

Turn on the device and when the Samsung logo appears, press and hold the Volume down key.

if done correctly, "Safe mode" will display on the bottom left corner of the screen. If "Safe mode" does not appear, repeat the previous steps


if the problem not disappear maybe is something physical, looks like the screen is broken on the camera cutout from your posted pic.


Sorry for my english

Camera in full still shows it. Safe mode displays it. And its even in TWRP. There is no crack. If you mean the straight line from left to right, thats a slightly small screen protector.

No modules installed in lsposed. Magisk shows none and fox's has "Zygisk - LSPosed" and "Universal SafetyNet Fix" (by kdragon). I didn't install those so I assume they came with the rom.

If appears in twrp then likely hardware related

I have installed Youtube vanced from ROM tool S21.
It works but its often very sluggish keep loading video endless time you need to click another video then go back to previous one then it might be playing.
Is any solution to that? I used to have youtube vacned on stock rom it worked smoothly.
[edit}
I had reinstalled it. Figured it out it only sluggish once i log into my yt account.

I have been downloading this now for 12 hours, is the server extra slow or? Waking up this morning, it's downloaded but now it's released. Sorry, I was not able to review before release. My internet was at 3mb down yesterday all day. I live in the mountains. Do I need to download a different version or is it all the same?

I'm having some difficulties to use some app which check safety. I've passed Safety Net Test.
My bank app detected my phone is rooted but I was allowed to install it and use.
1. I can't use Success Factors app for example. It says "Your device must meet security requirements"

SAP SuccessFactors Mobile - Apps on Google Play

Stay connected to your business with SAP SuccessFactors Mobile.

play.google.com

Is any solution to that?
2. I love call recording feature but would be possible to record phones calls out of Whats App and Messenger?

1. Go to Magisk/Settings/Configure DenyList "tick" your "sensitive apps". 2. You may hide Magisk itself (look up for hide Magisk and follow the steps).
