There is an image rolling out on Twitter and Reddit. Setting this image as wallpaper can actually soft-brick your smartphone. This image is known to affect smartphones from Google, Samsung, OnePlus, Nokia, Xiaomi and more having different effects on each of them. While Huawei handsets were reportedly not affected by this issue.

The issue is revealed by a leakster, Ice Universe, on Twitter. In his tweet as you can see above, he wrote - "Never set this picture as wallpaper, especially for Samsung mobile phone users!"
In his another tweet earlier today, he told about the issue being taken up by Samsung by quoting- "Update: Samsung has received feedback on this type of bug in mid-May, and has resolved this issue. Just wait for the subsequent firmware update and do not take the risk."

Why is This Happening?

According to users on Reddit and Twitter, the issue is caused by the color profile of the image. The image exceeds the color bound  compatibility of Android. Instead of using Android’s preferred sRGB, it uses the RGB color space, which Android 10 doesn’t convert and any incompatible handsets will be soft-bricked.

Do Not Try

DO NOT try this with your smartphone. If you do so, you may end-up losing your data and damaging your device because a factory reset will be needed to fix the issue. Due to the incompatibility of smartphone, it will lead to an immediate crash. However, an attempted reboot animation should also pop up but the smartphone will eventually get stuck in an endless booting sequence making it impossible to restart your device.

If you do end up soft-bricking your device, a factory reset will always fix the issue but that would make you lose all your data as well. Another method of fixing this issue is entering in safe mode and changing the wallpaper again.
