i have been on dev previews since they started and so far this one has been the most solid. i do have questions to see if anyone is seeing the same issues. dp3 and did a full factory reset/cache clear.

*

i wasnt able to pull up maps on my android wear watch, and looked into the issue. appears i cannot select is as an action. maps appears to come with dp3, and at a higher version (9.3) than the play store (9.26.1). since it appears to act like a preinstalled app, you cannot uninstall it normally like you would (i am not rooted), to attempt a reinstall.

*

along with the maps issue, i am seeing relatively spotty performance with mobile data and apps, when off wifi. for example, if i open maps, and then click traffic on wifi, i quickly get the red/yellow/green. on cell data, it opens maps, but will not show traffic, no matter how long i let it refresh. hangouts on wifi is sent instantly, hangouts on cell data says offline most of the time, but eventually lets the message through, though after a long time.

*

i do have data saver toggled on, however i do have all of these apps as exclusions. also have them to not optimize for battery saver, which is also turned on but wont kick in until 15% battery left.

*

i do understand this is a technical beta, just wondering if anyone has seen these issues. = )
[Nexus 5X General] tomj44:
Is it ok also for you ?
[Nexus 5X General] Ghost9867:
yes ;D i have only one lag when i go into settings and then i scroll all the way down but after that the phone is super smooth
[Nexus 5X General] bobby janow:
That is a really good question. If I go to settings-apps and select an app, there is a notification tab. On my Whatsapp I can change the notification color by tapping the gear icon and setting the color. But on other apps the gear icon is not even there and on some the gear icon doesn't give a color option. So I don't know what that's about. If you can figure it out I'm all ears. On PN you could just override the default colors and change it app by app even without Lightflow.

I'm having an issue where the lock screen wallpaper is stuck on a particular image and won't change no matter how many times I change the wallpaper in either settings or from within other apps. Is anybody else having this issue?
[Nexus 5X General] EeZeEpEe:
The lockscreen wallpaper seems to only change when it's something selected through Google Now Launcher. It's the only time I've seen the option for lockscreen wallpaper show up.
[Nexus 5X General] suku_patel_22:
True, the lockscreen wallpaper can be changed via Google now launcher wallpaper picker.
[Nexus 5X General] seven2:
Ok so it's launcher related, thank you.
[Nexus 5X General] moesus:
Not a single one here since first day of DP3 release. Stock Version, rock solid for me :)
[Nexus 5X General] heirei:
I'm not having these issues either. The only issues I'm having are that some apps are crashing. So far it's been smoother and faster than MM ever was on my device.

If you are still inclined to stick with NP3, I'd suggest a clean installation. When I first got NP3, I dirty flashed and it was such a huge mess I had no choice but to do a wipe and clean install. It was all good after that.

DP3 no GLONASS (GNSS)

Accroding to "GPS Status & Toolbox" Glonass is missing, can anybody confirm this?

GPS is all well tho...
[Nexus 5X General] bobby janow:
I think you're mistaken. Look under the "technology" section.

---------- Post added at 07:46 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:43 AM ----------

You might want to redo your installation. Perhaps some, like yourself, have this issue but the vast majority of users do not. And your last statement is totally incorrect. You do not have to wipe all your data to go back to MM. Fastboot the latest MM image without userdata.img and you're back to where you started internal data intact. Why would you make such a statement?
[Nexus 5X General] nitrox666:
I should have said Glonass is not working anymore since i´m on DP3, on MM it was all fine.
[Nexus 5X General] bobby janow:
Oh I see. Yes, I'm not getting any Glonass locks either by my house. I'll head out to see if that will change in open space. If that is hardware related I wonder why it would stop working.

edit: I do believe you are correct. My N5 on MM finds Glonass right away but not on the 5x with DP3.

edit2: It looks like it's a display issue. See the May 20th entry at the bottom. https://code.google.com/p/android/i... Priority Owner Summary Stars Reporter Opened
[Nexus 5X General] nitrox666:
Ok, you already posted on google+, that would have been my next step too :)

I used built-in feedback function on my N5X.

edit: I´ll give "GPS Status & Toolbox" a shout and provide them with the link.

thx.
[Nexus 5X General] emp504:
If you just opt out on beta website it'll wipe all data when applying new mm
[Nexus 5X General] bobby janow:
So don't opt out. Just reflash the M image. Although that does bring up a good question. If you reflash M manually and then opt out will it still attempt to wipe your system? You can always deny it or flash a custom recovery and that should negate anything from changing your system.

Nonetheless, there are various methods to avoid a total internal wipe if you decide to go back to M.

Hey guys anyone Can help me. I'm having some lag on android dp 3 any suggestion?
[Nexus 5X General] EeZeEpEe:
After 230 hours of uptime, I can honestly say this is the most stable my phone has ever been since getting it on release. I've never gone more than 4-5 days uptime without needing to restart do to lag or slow performance. Good job Google!
[Nexus 5X General] Ghost9867:
you flashed the dp3 with the flash all.bat ? so you wiped evrythings am i right ?
[Nexus 5X General] EeZeEpEe:
I just did the regular OTA download and install after signing up with the beta program. No factory restore or anything. I did happen to factory restore Marshmallow a couple days before though if that makes a difference. Also, I had one random reboot maybe on day one or two but that's it. App closures are expected but it's not prominent with the apps I use.
[Nexus 5X General] dmudd:
Go into developer options->Drawing and lower the 3 animation scales down from 1 to 0.5 or 0. I had a ton of lag and changing the three to 0.5 has helped a lot.
[Nexus 5X General] EeZeEpEe:
I do that too but it's just to speed things along and not wait for animations. If he's experiencing true lag, quicker animations isn't going to speed up slow responses after tapping.

Dummy proof root tutorial for DP3 please ?
[Nexus 5X General] jrotert:
Lag Fix Suggestion

Am having same on mine. I had Elementalx kernel installed and thought that was the issue because flar2 had not updated EX for DP3 yet, but flashed stock kernel and still experience intermittent lag. I have Sense Clock widget which displays available RAM, and I noticed that lag occurs when RAM drops below 200MB or so. My workaround was to install Recently (app by Chainfire--must be rooted) and use CLEAR ALL option in recent menu. RAM jumps back up to 600MB or so, and lag disappears. If your'e not rooted, I guess you could manually swipe away apps in recent menu to recoup your RAM--could be quite tedious depending on how many apps you have running.

YMMV.
[Nexus 5X General] EeZeEpEe:
There's a "clear all" option at the top of the recent apps view now.
[Nexus 5X General] drewski_1:
Cf autoroot
[Nexus 5X General] jrotert:
I stand corrected

I'll be damned. Just looked on my N9 (non-rooted with Android N DP3) and there it was.
[Nexus 5X General] Ghost9867:
today i will do a fresh install of the dp3 and then i will see
[Nexus 5X General] timmylamoule:
Well guys, I am currently rooted on DP3 but experiencing few lags and force close (mostly google camera & google keyboard)

Could you provide a clear tuto for DP3 and root from the beginning ?

Like flash N DP3 & just use cf autoroot ?

How do you decrypt your phone for TWRP right after the install of N DP3 ?

I hope I'll have less lags with clean install

Thanks !
[Nexus 5X General] Joms_US:
Yes please, just clean install and nothing else more. :)

I have not seen any with customization that is better than stock N DP3.
[Nexus 5X General] timmylamoule:
Well I agree with you for the moment.

But how do you root that thing after a clean install if I want root ?

How to decrypt partition for TWRP ?
[Nexus 5X General] Ghost9867:
If you want root and recovery

You have to flash this modified boot https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B4yuQy7Zn1WSTklfZW1McXZxQUk/view

then perform a format data ( you to deled all like when you have unlocked your bootloader )

Then flash the twrp (the latest version )

And then you can flash supersu 2.74-2 with the twrp ;D
[Nexus 5X General] MaLiXs:
What a good news!
[Nexus 5X General] cawith:
Why don't I have the "Clear All" button on my phone? Do you have to enable it first. I've done a fresh install of DP3...
[Nexus 5X General] pgoelz:
As far as I know, it is always there. It just isn't where you would expect it. Swipe DOWN on the notifications and it is at the TOP of the list. Beats me why they did it that way.....

Paul
[Nexus 5X General] alfick3:
I noticed it shortly after I let the DP3 OTA install. My problem is that I just keep forgetting it's there. [emoji2] I still manually swipe everything away.
[Nexus 5X General] EeZeEpEe:
I've heard it's really a waste of time to be clearing the recent apps. Maybe only when there's actually some slowdown it could help but not when the phone is already working just fine. Also they're going to be limiting the number of apps eventually.

http://www.androidpolice.com/2016/0...cluded-in-switcher-and-quick-switch-shortcut/

I stopped swiping them away with Marshmallow and would have 80+ in that list. Never noticed a difference in performance wherever it's 8 or 80. It can be smooth or slow either way.
[Nexus 5X General] alfick3:
For me, it's mostly a habit. I try and leave 'em. I do for a bit, and then I wipe 'em away.
[Nexus 5X General] EeZeEpEe:
It was for me too! Tough habit to break. LOL

[Nexus 5X General] bobby janow:

[Nexus 5X General] kvarga:
I signed up for beta on the weekend. OTA downloaded, installed. I'm using as daily driver. Here are my experiences:

SyncMe: can't access the lan passwords, some "Crypto" thing is missing in N. can't use my favorite lan sync app. :(

Adaptive brightness: much darker than before.

Notification led: I think it's not working.

Viber misses some UI thing, but works for me.

Skype misses some media thing. I didn't tested it further.

Chrome has the tabs inside the app, can't get out into recent apps.

Wifi drains more battery at night.

Less battery drain while traveling.

dpi adjustment is great.

no lag.

rest of the system is great.

recent apps list is too much focusing on the previous. bad if I want to cycle between the last 3 or 4 apps.

I recommend to everyone who wants to try it.

One more. Marvel Contest of Champions has no reflections on the characters. It's buggy, but I like it more this. :)))
[Nexus 5X General] wjazdbitu:
I used DP2 as daily driver and of course use DP3 as well. DP2 was little pain in the ...., DP3 is as good as MM for me (but I'm 100% Google - no Whatsapp, no Facebook, no Skype and so on).

Notification LED is working fine, you should adjust some settings. Battery drain is same as MM's drain. Chrome's lack of "merge tabs and apps" is not N feature. Chrome developers excluded it from Chrome and it hits MM too.
[Nexus 5X General] thenobol:
Same here on current beta with root - has anyone an idea?
[Nexus 5X General] EeZeEpEe:
That was a Chrome change and not an Android N beta change. Personally, I liked it in the recent apps view for my family members who didn't get the concept of Chrome tabs within Chrome. I would check their phone and they would have 99+ tabs just waiting. Within the recent apps view, they were more likely to clear them up.
[Nexus 5X General] zakdeni:
i am back to MM. For me there are to many apps with error messages. (for example Poweramp - detected problems with app native libraries, ...)

But the system itself runs stable.
[Nexus 5X General] batwingnz:
I knew it was a chrome change, so I therefore hoped if I didn't update chrome it'd be fine but it forced the update next time I launched chrome after installing DP3. Now my desktop chrome shortcuts often just launch to most recent tab and not to the shortcut link which is pretty dumb.
[Nexus 5X General] rocketsaucev2:
Damn that's awful news. I really enjoy the chrome tabs in recent. Kind of a weird thing to completely remove when there's a choice to begin with

Sent from my Nexus 5X
[Nexus 5X General] EeZeEpEe:
Little confused by how you worded this. How did this affect Chrome on a desktop for you?
[Nexus 5X General] batwingnz:
Yeah my bad, I have links to websites I regularly visit on my home screen (which I accidentally called desktop). Now when u click them the website you want doesn't open, it just takes me to chrome and whatever tab I last used instead of the shortcut I want.
[Nexus 5X General] EeZeEpEe:
I just tried adding a shortcut to the homescreen and tapping it worked just fine. Maybe you have to recreate those shortcuts.
[Nexus 5X General] batwingnz:
It works fine if the tab is not yet opened, if I've opened it earlier then opened a different one it no longer works correctly and takes me to the last own tab not to the website from the shortcut, it did under the merged tabs and apps
[Nexus 5X General] EeZeEpEe:
Well tried it again with the website already open but not on that tab. Worked just fine again. Opened Chrome, switched to the right tab, and reloaded the site.
[Nexus 5X General] batwingnz:
Darn, I'll recreate all the shortcuts and give it a go again. Thanks for checking :)

Deleted and remade shortcuts, all works fine now. Seems an odd thing to break but oh well.
[Nexus 5X General] Castore:
In your opinion, is advisable to make a factory reset or the "normal" upgrade to N is good enough?
[Nexus 5X General] Ghost9867:
Hey does someone have noticed that the phone become a bit hot when you use it for some time

Anyone have found a fix for this? Like a custom kernel or anything like that

Follow up to my problem with N Dev 3:

Ended up flashing back to MM. Tried everything possible to get it to work.

Every time, the same issue happened. Screen went blank when making/receiving a call. Locking the phone by hitting power button didn't work. Sometimes the double click to camera would. Usually needed to power off.

Downloaded the N Dev 3 preview twice (in case of a bad DL).

Tried flashing manually via fastboot twice.

Clean flashed MM then flashed N Dev 3.

Clean flashed MM then took the OTA.

When you want to go back to stock, you need to have stock recovery, stock kernel and ROM, otherwise the next OTA is going to fail.

Is anyone having any kind of issues after updating with the Beta program? (OTA and no wipes).

I had problems with L Preview and M Preview (but a factory reset was mandatory in those previews) so it was perfectly reasonable.
